Tom Fool Creek by the Lake
Beautiful scenery, friendly people
We had such a relaxing and delightful time camping at Tom Fool Creek by the Lake (site #3). No matter which direction we looked, we were treated to a lovely view of mountains, trees, a nice variety of birds, an incredible starry sky at night, and of course the beautiful lake. The property is vast, and the campsites are far enough from one another that even when other campers arrived, our site still provided the quiet space and privacy we were seeking during our quick getaway from the city. We feel grateful to have come across Peter's listing, and he was a gracious and kind host throughout our stay. There are some communal spaces on the land, as well, and we were lucky enough to meet some of Peter's nice neighbors, too. As if that weren't treat enough, we briefly got to meet his pack of sweet labradors, who were all tail wags and friendly greetings. The two days went by much too quickly, and we are already looking forward to visiting again soon. Thanks so much, Peter!

Lake creek getaway
Such a beautiful spot! We felt very lucky to have found such a lovely space, even if it's a bit rough. Lots of bramble and divets but still found a good spot for our tents and didn't feel any divets with our standard sleeping pad. The bathrooms were clean and the creek/lake were lovely. Lots of beautiful wildlife too.

Tom Fool Creek by the Lake
Beautiful camping spot on Loon Lake
My wife and I hosted a camping weekend for our young adult kids and friends. A fabulous time was had by all! Our site was quite private with just a short walk to the lake. Swimming, kayaking, fishing, rock hounding, and star gazing when it wasn't raining kept our group actively engaged and away from screens, though high speed wifi is readily available with a five minute walk to the barn. Porta potties were clean and wheelchair accessible, though at least one was in need of service.
Peter is an attentive and accommodating host...we enjoyed chatting with him and hearing his vision for creating a fun and nurturing park for disabled children and their families.
We will certainly be back!

A wonderful experience !
We loved our stay at this sweet, spacious campsite on Loon Lake !
Such a peaceful, beautiful place... We swam, kayaked, bird-watched, and generally relaxed. Peter was a wonderful host- so helpful and friendly.
We. like so many other reviewers, plan to return one day. Next time we'll share it with friends !

We had a wonderful weekend at this campsite! Peter was so kind and the area was beautiful. It was wonderful having so much space to ourselves and not being in a crowded campground (especially since we had dogs and toddlers). We had kids at multiple ages and they all enjoyed their time here. We especially loved kayaking, frog hunting, taking the dogs for a swim in the lake, playing ball in the open field, and the fun hayride Peter took us on. We would recommend this place to anyone and we will definitely be back!
