The host, Joseph, is frequently praised for his responsiveness and helpfulness, enhancing the overall experience. Guests appreciate the seclusion and the freedom it affords, especially for pets and children to roam freely. While the road at times needs maintenance, the beauty and tranquility of the location make it a favored spot for many returning campers.

Private and convenient spot. Loved

Tent · With pets

We had a great time on Joseph's land. The entrance off the main road was a little hard to find. We passed it twice, but then once we found the correct road, it was easy to get to the spot. Our Toyota Corolla handled it just fine. The spot is nicely secluded considering its right off a main road and only 20 minutes from town, which is great because there's a Walmart there that stays open pretty late and lots of other stores in case you forget something or need to do a #2😆. You cannot see any houses once you get to the spot. Our dog ran around non-stop the entire time we were there and she loved it. This spot was clean, accommodating, and convenient to get to. We only caught very small fish, but it was fun. We threw them back with hopes to visit again in a few months and catch them again once they are bigger. We really enjoyed it and hope to visit again in the future. Host was easy and efficient to communicate with. Thanks Joseph.

Wide Open Space

Tent · With pets

My dog loved the great open space and pond. Plenty of places to pitch a tent and enjoy the privacy of being the only campers there. We appreciated the shelter, the picnic table and the firewood that Joesph provided. It was a good time had by all.

2nd time staying at the Pine Tree Retreat and it was super peaceful and quiet. I don’t live far from here so this will be a regular getaway for myself when I need to unplug and relax.
