It's a great site, nice and open with a few decent tent spots, and a nice fire ring. The toilet is better than any campsite toilet I've seen (with a little foot pump operated sink). There was a bit of noise from the neighbors accessing their property late at night, but not the fault of the owners. Close to good hiking too.

Beautiful Private Location!

Tent · With kids

My family and friends loved our camping experience! The campsite was very private and the hosts were very accommodating and super easy to comunicate with when we had questions! The dogs loved staying outside all day and attempting to catch frogs, and the humans loves the campfires, a break from everyday life, and that our get away was still close by to stores for needed food and supplies.

This is our 3rd time at this spot and we truly enjoy going. 2 families with 5 kids all together and they have such a blast everytime we go. The washroom is amazing! We will plan another trip to this beautiful spot. Thank you Kristina 😊

This is such a beautiful property. You have it all to yourself, so it's quiet and private. I've stayed a few times, and I've enjoyed it each time. Nice to have a clean bathroom and a way to wash your hands too.

Long weekend camping off grid!

5 m pop-up camper · With pets

Absolutely beautiful area, very private and relaxing, great features including outhouse! We had a wonderful time here over the Victoria Day long weekend. The camp was super private, didn't see or hear a single other person our entire stay! Which was exactly what we needed/were hoping for in a relaxing trip away from the busy city. Lots of frogs in the pond infront of the large firepit, site was very clean and well kept, washroom exceeded our expectations as far as outhouses go, the Black River is visible directly across the street and was great for canoeing(had a bit of a hard time getting canoe in and out of the tall muddy river banks but with a rope we managed), plus we purchased wood with our stay and were provided a great amount on site when we arrived, cell service is spotty so truly is an off grid experience! Overall we had a fabulous time and will definitely book with Kristina again! ✌🐶🌻🌲🏕🛶🌞🌈🔥🌌🎣🔦😎
