Not as expected
To be fair, we booked this last minute when our plan A campground was full. We did pick this one because it said there was a toilet, and there wasn’t, so it’s pricy for what was available. We met Bond on our way in, he was friendly and welcoming. It was a quiet small field/large backyard, as mentioned. No shower or noticeable fire pit. Being ‘off season’ we were the only ones there so plenty of space and privacy.

Peaceful stopover
Bond and his family were kind, helpful, and very responsive to my questions.
My dog and I enjoyed the walk to the river and the following dunk after a long, hot day.
The road was a little busy but I closed the cabin door that faced the road and opened the door that faced the other way and didn't notice the traffic.
It was a lovely, peaceful evening. Just what I was looking for.
I'd come again.

The hosts were kind and welcoming when we arrived. However, the space is not worth the money and the posting contains inaccurate information. The posting stated that the water is potable, but I was told by employees that they would never drink the water from the shop and after looking at the faucet at the back of the car mechanic space I agree it would be unsafe to drink. There is no hot shower despite the note in the listing. The shower is located in the mechanic space. There is no privacy, the shower was filthy, and the hot water does not work. The camping space in the field is fine, but unfortunately there is dog poop throughout the field and you need to be vigilant as you walk around to avoid the mess. We wanted to do a fire, but felt uncomfortable with our child near the fire pit because of the rusty nails, metal scraps, and other debris in the communal fire pit.

Had a great experience with our stay Bond and his wife were very welcoming. They were easily available to us if we needed help or advice and would definitely stay there again.

Don't go here for privacy
If you are looking for privacy it's not here, the people were nice but it just wasn't a place for us. When we pulled up there was cars where we were supposed to be "camping" it's right behind a house basically on a main road. We weren't looking forward to waking up at 7 to be greeted by 30 different cars or have others less then 20 feet from us.

Confusing and without enough info
You just can't figure out where anything is, even the Campsite is like you are not sure you are in the right place, the same goes for the bathroom, a map or a sign for the bathroom would be nice
