The campsite offers a range of experiences, from peaceful interactions with farm animals to cozy nights in spacious tents. Many campers appreciate the beautiful views and the charming presence of a friendly dog and cat. However, some guests have noted issues with cleanliness and lighting, and there have been instances of miscommunication regarding amenities. Despite these concerns, the majority of visitors find the farm a delightful retreat from city life.

Beautiful views, tent, and property

Such a beautiful property and tent on the land, it's a short walk up from the parking area to the tent site with lush fields as you go back to it. We had a blast seeing all of the animals on the farm and meeting the livestock guardian dog along with their 3 farm cats who were curious about us being there, everyone was very friendly! The tent itself is quite large and the bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

Horrible host. The instructions were not clear and we did not receive what we saw in the photos. There were no extra blankets and the place had very little lighting. I would not recommend it.

Pictures unreliable

None of the pictures matched what we ended up with. It was very confusing. There was plenty of potential but it seems like they're in the middle of getting it set up. I can't recommend it right now. The peacocks were a lot to deal with.

The yurt was very spacious and the area around it was absolutely beautiful. There’s tons of outdoor seating, a playground, trampoline and more. The cat is awesome and super friendly. I highly recommend.

Loved our yurt getaway from the city! The host was very responsive and you have a panoramic view of their gorgeous land. They also have the sweetest guard dog who greets you when you arrive and leave. Couldn't recommend it more, and I look forward to visiting again.

Cute but not well maintained

With kids

Cute little spot and fun camping experience for kids. Would just suggest that the tent and grounds be maintained a bit better. Many of the zippers on tent were broken and almost all lights (string lights and standing lights by trail) were not working. Also the electricity kept going out at night. We pay a cleaning fee but tent was not very clean, which is to be expected while camping but not when paying for cleaning.
