Site 4 - Camp at an Animal Rescue!

Has potential

My response was delayed because I honestly didn’t want to post a review out of anger. Without going into detail I’ll share the facts. GOOD - property is well maintained. BAD - they are using two platforms to book their sites. The platforms do not coordinate bookings. UGLY - Hipcamp confirmation did not get priority over the other. I made it work for my situation but make sure you have a confirmation that’s not automated before you book with Hipcamp.

The campsite was perfect! There was a lovely creek that ran right beside our site. There was also a nice table and fire pit for dinner and campfires. The farm animals especially the adorable pigs made this visit extra special. I loved how this place felt so inclusive to all humans and animals!

Great spot!

The grounds were lovely and there was a neat little group area with a couple of games for kids there. As for the camping itself I would say it was a step up from dry camping as our site had electric, was fairly level and open. The toilets are porta potties and the outdoor shower is back near the bus. The campground is beside I40 however being down in the holler the crickets made more noise than the traffic. Overall a great place to camp. Our only negative was the fire pit was full of garbage which we had to clean out before making a fire. The hosts did provide firewood which was awesome. I would definitely recommend staying here.

My review is a bit mixed, but I think it depends on what someone is looking for whether it is good, neutral, or not so good. I was passing thru after backpacking in the park. Good - its for a good cause, near the park and easily accessible, Tera was helpful and responsive, and the land is described well. The shower was a treat after a few days in the park. It's near some of the rescue animals which was cool to see, chickens and pigs and maybe more. There was plenty of firewood for a nice fire. The grounds were recently mowed and clean. The price was great. Neutral - the road noise didn't bother me but was noticeable. It sort of droned on and wasn't an issue though I didn't spend much time hanging around outside. the layout - it's basically a big field with a road going around it and spots spread out. there's little to separate you from anyone else (like trees or buildings etc you might find at other campgrounds.) But at the same time there is good visibility so if someone were worried about safety that might be a benefit. From my site I could see people coming and going to the porta potty and shower. They do have some nice things set up in shared space. Not so good - the hipcamp map of camp locations doesn't match actual locations. I think I would have picked a different space away from others a bit. I sleep in my SUV so a little extra space is nice. Wasn't the best fit for me but for the price, for a good cause, seeing the animals no complaints

Easy, peaceful, next to an awesome little creek. I did not love that power lines ran over it, or the car/truck noise from the highway, but no biggie for a quick overnight trip while on the way somewhere else. A good, safe, chill place to stay for a rest spot.
