#3 - Mid Camp
Solitude, Silence, and Stars!
I, my wife, and our two dogs stayed at Chris's place for a long weekend of just...silence. Other than one evening (shout out to Veset!) we had the entire mountain to ourselves. We took our 19' Arkto Campers G12 towed behind our Power Wagon and had no issues navigating the road. The site was tight to back into, but we managed with some minimal leveling and had plenty of room to spread out.
Chris's property is surrounded by national forest, so an afternoon walk can turn into hours of exploration almost by accident. Come prepared to put a lot of miles (and changes in elevation) under your feet, or to laze around and just do nothing. We opted for a bit of both.
Keep in mind that all the sites are primitive and there are no boundless fields. I didn't mind not having an open space to throw a ball as the dogs were plenty tired from hiking. If you're looking for a spot to bring a bunch of friends and all circle up...this isn't it. If you're looking for some beautiful mountains to relax in with maybe one other vehicle (so long as you're both roof top or ground tent camping)...it's perfect!
We'll be back as there's so much left unexplored!

Secluded with nature.
My daughter, furpup and I had a wonderful stay on Chris’s property. He was very friendly and responded very quickly to our booking. He was nice to meet us and gave very wonderful directions, down to the 2miles to get to campsite. 4wheel drive is recommended to drive to site. The site had plenty of room to put a tent and enjoy the peace under the stars. We appreciated how rugged the property is and the owner takes very good care to keep the property in its natural state. The tent site was very clean and no litter. We opted to hammock camp a little ways and enjoyed hearing the birds at night. We highly recommend this site for those who appreciate a more out with nature feel who appreciate backpacking and hiking. The sky is perfect for star gazing and didn’t have cell service problems at site itself the rest of the property is spotty but that is to be expected in the mountains.

This was the perfect campsite for a quiet night by the fire. It was easy to locate and a 4 wheel drive vehicle made it easy to get to. Chris was very easy to communicate with and gave some nice recommendations for things to do in the area. Will definitely be staying here again!

#1 - Guest Camp
Great, secluded cabin. Chris was very helpful as the place is new and work is still being done to add amenities.

#4 - High Camp
Awesome Adventure
High Camp was exactly what I wanted - very remote, primitive, private, and wild. Chris does a phenomenal job at keeping his property in its natural state. It was just an incredible adventure. Plenty of hiking trails for backpacking and exercise!
