We had such a wonderful time! The weather was perfect, the flowers were blooming, and the sunset was magical! The yurt was perfect for our group and everything was very convenient. We will definitely be back!

We had a great time and it was perfect for those (like us) that are novice campers. The kids loved exploring the campsite and it was so great to have a grill, fire pit, table/chairs, and heater. Would certainly come back!

Had a great experience! We stayed at Faith and it was naturally shaded and protected from the elements. It rained overnight and we could hear it but we didn’t experience it since it was cozy, warm, and dry inside the tents. Hosts were so responsive and helpful! Would definitely visit again. Highly recommend!

We ended up staying at the "Breakthrough" campsite (not Victory) so this review is for that site. It's beautiful. We were at the top of a hill, so we got to see beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The sound of the frogs lulled us to sleep, as did the calls of the coyotes. There were dogs barking in the distance. That didn't bother me at all. In fact, three big white dogs came by to check on us each day and to say hi to our dogs. The tent and beds were clean and comfortable. The propane fire pit and heater worked great, and the grill was great as well. Jonathan checked us in, and he was a very friendly and helpful guy. There was also another campsite at the top of the hill that seemed very nice and the other campers were respectful and friendly. I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back sometime. I recommend paying the extra money for the coal and propane. It made things easier.

Aesthetic, flowers, and views!

Staying here was the most beautiful experience. I celebrated my birthday with some friends and we’re still on a high from being here. I knew this place was beautiful, but I wasn't expecting there to be so much aesthetic! The host was friendly, the tent was nice and warm, and the grounds were clean. 10/10 would recommend. If you do not care for dogs this isn’t the place for you. There’s a few free roaming dogs on the property that are really friendly!
