Wonderful place!

We loved our time at the apple orchard! Ample room for our teardrop. Definitely not for big Class A or Fifth-wheels! You'd end up in the pond or irrigation ditch! The toilet is a flush toilet in a little outhouse next to the barn and it's very clean. The chickens are fun to watch, milling around doing chicken things. And the apples are amazing! John has like 40 or 50 varieties on the farm, with at least a few varieties to pick each week in the fall. Check their website! We found a new favorite (Frostbite)! One thing to consider: this is a working orchard, so there will be people picking apples on the weekends in the fall right across the irrigation ditch from where the site is at. It didn't bother us, but it may not be as "private" as you may like. John is an excellent and attentive host and was available during the day if anything came up. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will come back!

The Apple Orchard

John was a good host! I got there after dark and called him to say I would be. He was kind and still met me at the street as I pulled up. He got me situated and it was a nice visit. I was there at the right time to enjoy a few apples he gave me. Very nice place!

Private and peaceful. A lovely spot to rest after a long travel day. I loved being next to the beautiful orchard.

Camping Next To Apple Trees!

John has such a wonderful little farm hidden out of the way. He is very proud of his orchard and the variety of apples he has available. I will visit again in the fall.
