Rustic A Frame by the water

A wonderful getaway!

My stay at the little A frame was just what I needed. Well appointed with lots of details and very welcoming and cozy! Jae was a kind and friendly host. I was lucky enough to be there during October so I could add on a special card reading with Jae which was wonderful. The site itself is quite and private but super close to gas stations, wine stores and even some excellent Thai food! Meeting Jae’s beautiful dogs was the icing on the cake. I’m sure that I will be back next year and this time I will not forget my headlamp:) Thanks to Jae for an experience I will not soon forget.

💜☪️💜🍁Must not miss this spot 🍁

What went well? Everything from the second we arrived. Host was laid back and encouraged us to do the same. Her amazing personality makes you feel welcomed. I’ve met a couple grouchy hosts. She was the BEST! My boyfriend and were looking for a romantic atmosphere and her site was magical. Everything from utensils, water, clean bathroom, and the A-Frame. Bathroom was very close which is important for someone like me (medical issues). Privacy completely, which we love. The lights at Night are peaceful and again magical. The bed was clean, sheets so white and been taken care of. The bed felt better than a Hilton hotel! No joke. Beautiful look out on view of the water. The A-Frame is well taken care of. I was not scared of critters while sleeping. We will be back. By far the best host and best Hipcamp I’ve visited with privacy and romance if that’s what you’re looking for. First time taking my boyfriend to a Hipcamp and now his sold 🙂 P.s Fall was an amazing time to come. 🍁 leafs changing and surrounded us with its beauty. Thank you 🙏 again we both appreciated it and came at a time where we needed a break. Came from CT well worth the drive. 💜☪️💜My crystals are fully charged thanks to the beauty and Good vibes.

Rustic A Frame by the water

Cute little hidden gem! A welcoming private space, tucked into a suburban town. The A-frame was the perfect size for 3 girls and two dogs. Jae had it fully stocked with everything you could need for a comfortable and convenient escape.

Rustic A Frame by the water

We spent the night in the the AFrame and had a wonderful time. We brought our own fire wood and our host provided a propane stove that we utilized for cooking dinner and breakfast. You truly feel secluded even though you are minutes from many stores. A highlight was watching the moon move through the sky while lying in bed and eating breakfast on the deck by the water. This is similar to rustic camping with the outhouse and open sleeping quarters- everything was clean and we were pleased with what was provided. We also appreciated that our host took the time to look up and provide us with information on the area and activities to do.
