ROUND MOUND CAMPSITE
Wonderful private experience
My wife and I thoroughly loved every second at the round mound site. We were spoiled with privacy and appreciated the bonus amenities provided like the nice outhouse, cleaning water, separate good drinking water, sink and table. Our experience on the land was similar to being at a park reserve except you have the entire park reserve to yourself! We only seen one other campsite occupied while hiking for a couple hours but didn’t even see them - nor did anyone see us. Absolutely amazing! We had dry campfire wood and cooked on the provided steel grates. So peaceful and Mike and Joan are happy and welcoming. Don’t see how any bad review is even possible. I am so grateful they’ve chosen to open their property to share with the lucky few that enter. Highly recommend this experience. Please note I look for opportunities to camp self-sufficiently. The round mound campsite exceeded my expectations and hope to get back to that special place.

ROUND MOUND CAMPSITE
Beautiful property! It was close to I90 making it a perfect stop on our road trip but zero road noise. I wish we would have had more time to explore the trails will definitely be back.

ROCK BOTTOM CABIN
Amazing hosts and stewards!
The care and connection that Mike and Joan have to this land is apparent. It’s so generous of them to share these beautiful woods and land. We had a sweet overnight at Rock Bottom Cabin. 2 adults and 2 kids. We were grateful for the tractor trailer ride down to the cabin. We saw so many lightning bugs which are a good indicator of a healthy ecosystem! Super quiet all night. It was pretty warm in the cabin, but having all the vents open helped some with that. Mike and Joan have worked out so many details! Everything was super clean and fresh. There was a well stocked wood shed, drinking and washing water. In the morning we went on a beautiful hike on the well maintained and labeled trails. We definitely hope to visit again soon and would love to stay longer! The cows at their grass based dairy look so beautiful and healthy! Thanks Mike and Joan for being such great stewards of the land and hosts!

WOODEN TENT IN THE WOODS
This was the best site of our road trip!!! We had been rained out the previous nights and found this site and it was more than we could have asked for. The host is very nice and accommodating! the space was clean and so fun to hang around in. We went for a hike around the property and it was beautiful, this place is more than just a place to stay you can easily spend a whole day here! Literally the best outhouse I have aver been in :)

HILLTOP QUEEN
Great stay, easy fast camping
What a beautiful area, private, well kept and nice hiking trails + it's close to a few city centres so if you want to get out for food or to see the river - it's just a short trip. There are riddles and things to look out for to solve while hiking which was fun for kids and adults alike. The hilltop queen made for luxurious sleep, much easier for the kids to enjoy their time and organize activities. The solar lighting made it easier to enjoy evenings even later. The outhouse is a total winner, way better than the hole in the ground you usually get + it's got lights for late night visits. Trash cans, firewood and water provided to drink and clean, it really doesn't get much easier to camp. If you have some of your family that struggles to make it more than a day camping, the hill top queen will be a game changer for them. Mike and Joan where a pleasure and very available if anything came up. We were not sure what we would be in for camping here, but definitely glad we made the choice and you will be too. We are looking to make this a yearly event.

ROCK BOTTOM CABIN
We had a nice quick overnight. The hosts are very hospitable. Area was spacious and private. Cabin was perfect for a night. Lovely trails and playground for what we were able to explore in one day.
