Great spot with lots of character to pass the night! Quiet spot to park, had it been tenting whether the garden would have been lovely!

Beautiful experience

This was my first experience using Hipcamp while my bf and I are traveling cross country and the stay at Carol’s was really lovely! Her and Walt were so welcoming, accommodating and kind. Made friends with their sweet kitty Ray who was our buddy for the stay, we will miss him dearly! The yard was filled with beautiful plants and was cozy, Carol was kind enough to teach us some things about them. Great people and we felt very safe there, would definitely return again if in the area!

Great Experiences

Carol hosted 7 of us. Felt like I was in a fairy garden 🧚‍♀️ 🌸. Amazingly kind and sweet. Taught us a lot about plants and made me fall back in love with nature again. Was a trip that I’m certain others would enjoy.

There is a lovely camper and garden there to tent. There are several great places to eat in the shade of the beautiful trees and gardens. Our dog wandered safely on the property without issue or creating one. Carol gave us a lovely tour of the plants she is growing and what they do to help your body. We had arrived late in the evening but Carol sent us clear information about how to access the garden and helped us out immensely.

Definitely coming back.

Carol was a very kind hearted wise woman I learned a lot of about the plants and herbs she grows here! The area was very relaxing and beautiful. Everywhere you look there’s something to learn about and admire. A lovely fire pit sits at the center of a resting place with hammocks and seats. Very cozy and welcoming. This was by far one of my favorite experiences! Carol is also very helpful if you are a first time camper and is willing to accommodate with whatever you need she even took time to show me a cozy little bar/ restaurant down the road. The area is beautiful and it’s definitely worth checking out and experiencing on your own!
