Messy and loud
15 ft travel trailer
The location was good and the host was friendly but the messy campsite caused us problems with wildlife. The first night a bear broke into the dumpster which was about 50 yards from our campsite. Clearly that was not the fault of the host, but of the person who left it open. But the next day, the host cleaned up only part of the mess, and there was trash remaining for the rest of the time we were there, about 4 days. My husband pointed out an entire area that still had trash but Ben left without cleaning it up. There were also dozens of chipmunks everywhere. Probably due to the trash all around. After we left, we realized that one had gotten up into our car. Fortunately, he did not do too much damage. Then there was another problem with all of the construction. There was a backhoe and two or three workers who were installing a septic system all day for two or three days. They were not excessively noisy, but for a camp situation we wanted privacy and peace. Then behind us, in another field, a worker was clearing the land with heavy machinery. He was about 15 feet away from us. There was just a lot of dust and noise. I honestly can’t believe they charged us full price during a time when there was so much construction and mess going on. I think it’s a good idea to have a Hipcamp here, but the host needs to do more to make it a pleasant experience.
