Balsam Trail Campsite

Another great stay! We absolutely love the privacy of this spot! The drive to the site in the fall is quite beautiful and we’ve taken a liking to the El Toro lounge / cafe that’s not too far from the site!

Balsam Trail Campsite

The experience was smooth as butter, we found our campsite with ease, much after dark. The grounds were well maintained & very ideal for tenting. Nice and secluded so our dogs could play and get noisy without feeling bothersome! The roads coming to the site were very nice as well. Our host Jared was quick to respond to any questions we may have had and even pointed us in the direction of some good thrifting. As a first time user of hipcamp, it was an experience i’d highly recommend to anyone!

Balsam Trail Campsite

I loved camping on this land! It was very quiet, good privacy, and had lots of space. Firewood and area were nicely kept, and even a few chair were provided. Would highly recommend!
