32 acres hosted by Meredith G.

2 RV/tent sites

Welcome to Bear Bottom Ranch! Our entrance is marked by 2 cross crossed American flags. Come and enjoy our 32 acres of wooded property where a creek runs through. We have gorgeous oak trees and walnut trees all throughout the property. If you looking for a private camping experience, this place is for you. We usually have a couple horses on the property and I have 3 unleashed dogs that are friendly with people and dogs. We will be at the top of the property. We hope you’ll enjoy our place!Pitch your tent or park your vehicle anywhere you like in our oak tree grove. Recommend that after you turn onto our gravel driveway, you take a left onto the mowed path that’s just before the porta john. This path will take you to the first site, then if it’s occupied you will follow it to the second site. You are welcome to pick up fallen tree limbs and sticks to feed your fire. Watch for the wildlife, we have multiple owls living in the property and coyotes pass through regularly. This is a private property with very little traffic and people passing through.

Host was completely unresponsive, the road into the camping area was not specified so we ended up following the GPS marker in the app, this lead us down an almost impassable dirt road where we had to do a 3 point (more like 47 point) turn to avoid attempting to drive over an old wooden bridge that didnt look like it could support our vehicle to get out. If we did not have an offroad truck with 4 low, locking diffentials and traction boards with our tow vehicle we would have had to call a tow truck as we got stuck in the mud for a while. There is a good amount of paint work that needs to be fixed on my truck from the scratches from the over grown road. We ended up booking a campsite down the road and did not stay.

Wonderful place

This is my second time camping here while the weather played a little bit of havoc on me the one site further away was rather muddy and I wound up getting myself stuck had a friend of mine come and pull me out the hose was very understanding and allowed us to stay up on a more grassy area for the duration of the trip absolutely would go back again I'll just be a little more aware of the weather thank you again and I will be back

Tranquil night under the stars.

Very quiet, safe location. There was one other camper about a quarter mile away. You are in the trees with the creek nearby. Kids explored the area, horses were out (fenced in). Fire pit with plenty of twigs to pick up while walking.

Had a great time

What a Wonderful place to relax, Quiet and wonderful surroundings. Yes as some have stated you can hear some traffic but that was no issue at all, I would suggest when you confirm you share a bit more details as I pulled into the wrong driveway and had a hard time turning my 15ft trailer around in the driveway. I will for sure be back wonderful place !!

Quiet and pleasant spot!

It’s a great spot, tucked amongst oak trees and beside a small creek. It’s shaded from direct sun also, I also appreciated how quiet it was. I occasionally heard a car from the nearby road, which was more than overcome by the birds. Check it out!

We loved camping, my girls felt comfortable, we had a little problem, we couldn't find the place, there was no one to tell us if we were in the right place, but everything else was very good, we loved the place.
