DAVID is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

Come enjoy the solar eclipse with no light pollution or obstruction at our remote property, directly in line with the full eclipse. We got so lucky to find this gem of a property and we want to share it with like-minded folks. It's a place to connect with the natural world. When you pull in you feel like you're out west, overlooking a field to the river and mountainous forests. Watch the sun set of Half Moon Mountain, wake up early for a peaceful trail walk or fly fishing. Let us know if you'd like to schedule a by donation nature and wildlife tracking walk.This communal site is set right along the Magalloway River. You can set up in an open enchanted cherry forest with hammocks or tents, in the open field, or tucked into the forest. Parking is a few hundred yards from camping. We have carts to borrow for gear transfer. If you have accessibility issues please contact us.

Loved it! David’s land is beautiful and virtually untouched…right up against the Magalloway River, surrounded by small mountains…this is rough, rural camping at it’s best, camp against the field or under the canopy of trees…equipment must be hiked into site…David provided carts….peace and tranquility in the wilderness with the security of a host who is knowledgeable, helpful and kind. Firewood provided for very reasonable fee…

Absolutely magical experience at David’s super cool property. We came up for the eclipse and loved everything about this spot. David was friendly and welcoming and provided very clear expectations and instructions. Multiple sites at this farm/homestead. We were expertly paired near another family with kids. Flat camp spot tucked in the trees and right by the river. Spots to hammock or tent. My dog had a blast as well. I will definitely recommend this spot for rustic, private and beautiful camp spot.
