Quiet retreat on the old Barlow Rod
John & his family are great hosts! They make sure have everything you need, including ice and propane for the camp stove or gas firepit (due to burn ban right now). If you stay with an RV be aware that the elect & water hook ups are at the front edge of the site. John is great about checking in to see if you need anything during your stay and has a ton of recommendations for things to see!

Camping with the stars
Cool place, close to the lake, OHV and other fun sites! The host is super friendly, attentive and easily available. We will stay there again when in the area!

Great spot to camp!
We had a great experience on John’s land. It’s private, clean and John is super friendly and helpful. He provided quick responses to questions over the messaging app. It was better than we expected. He provided ice, propane and a gas fire pit. Even a griddle that we used on the fire pit was great. An additional cooking griddle as well. Porta Potty available also. The biggest thing for us was that despite a huge thunderstorm rolling in just minutes after we arrived John took care of us by even inviting us into his family home for a couple hours to wait out the storm. Then after we hitched our tent the storm started again and he let us hang inside his RV camper. The storm ended and we slept in our tent and everything went smooth sailing into the next day, which was glorious hiking and going river rafting. John gave us plenty tips on food places and the hike we ended up going on before meeting at the River Drifters location in Maupin. So overall, a fantastic host and we highly recommend anyone camping on his property! Thank you, John and family for a great experience and adventure!

Good Experience
Very nice host. This was our first Hipcamp booking. We don’t like being stacked on top of other campers at Pine Hollow Resort/Campground, and John’s property was the perfect remedy. My family rented out both camp spots and had the place to ourselves while only being 5 minutes from the lake. Highlights were the heated shower (a big hit with my parents who were tent camping) and the doe and fawns that were hanging out on the property multiple mornings that we were there. :)

Private camping gem!
John is an incredible host, super helpful and knows the best local spots to explore. The site was private, the port-a-John was conveniently located, and the shower was great - hot and great water pressure. The fire pits were nice; I enjoyed roasting hotdogs and marshmallows with my family. I liked it so much I am going back in a few weeks for another stay!!
