Creekside comfort and beauty
We had an excellent stay at John’s! Great communication and welcome. John met us to guide us in and give us a tour, including lighted patios, creekside decks, clean loo and shower. After a great sleep we walked the property and enjoyed the views. Thank you, John!

Super Fun Property and Amenities.
We had an amazing time here at Creekside! John and his family were awesome hosts! We will definitely return. The property was incredible. The layout of all campsites were super cool. Pick any site and you wont regret :) Don’t forget to ask about the boat tours! They charge super cheap and you can get a great ride through Shell creek. We saw the biggest owl ever.

The Hideaway
Camping+kayaking
We stayed at this amazing campsite, and it was the perfect getaway. It’s located in a quiet, peaceful area, far from the noise of the city, but still easily accessible. The surrounding nature is stunning, and it’s the ideal place to disconnect and relax. The owner of the campsite was incredibly welcoming and hospitable, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The campsite itself was well-kept, with great amenities, and I especially enjoyed the kayaking experience. The kayak rental was excellent, and it was so much fun exploring the nearby river. If you're looking for a quiet place to relax, surrounded by nature, but with easy access to everything you need, We highly recommend this campsite. It was an unforgettable experience!
