Good, some improvements recommended
This was a pretty nice camp stay for the price. I appreciate a very affordable site. Not a whole lot of extras, we didn't mind that always come prepared ourselves and that's the way I like to camp. I found it pretty funny that there was a storage area for firewood but no fire wood. That would have been nice to offer even if there was an up charge for it. The site is across the street of the owners home in assuming but the drive way is long enough you really are too your self for the most part besides noise. I was pretty annoyed that they decided to mow their grass at 9am. You should know someone is staying here and check out is at 11. Just ruined our quiet morning getting ready, was a big let down. Another issue I had was there is a chain across the drive way that you have to unlock, that's great... However huge spider was on it and it's web., again you know someone paid for this spot and what time check in is, would be nice to go clean up the area make sure everything is ready and neat including weeds and things that could be poison ivy.. I appreciate there only being one cite so that's a huge plus. Over all it was a nice stay, but the noise is the morning will probably stop me from booking here again unfortunately. It's so hard to find a campsite that's truly quiet and too your self.

Nice space, clean and with enough privacy from neighbors. Easy to find firewood around, and appreciated the shed with extra tools (chairs, tables).

The area is about 30 minutes from Wisconsin Dells, but if you aren’t interested in going there, there is plenty to do around the area. I recommend checking out Dirty Turtle and Ship Wrecked. There is a lake near by, we didn’t get to check it out due to the weather being o the colder side, but it looked like a busy and nice lake. State parks within driving distance. The campsite itself was just what we needed. Had a fire pit, far enough back in the woods to feel secluded, tables/chairs and more was also provided in the shed on the site. It’s a quiet neighborhood, with the exception of the few planes flying over head. Overall, great camping experience, would definitely recommend this place.

Super sweet little private campground, we enjoyed our peaceful evenings around the fire and short walks in the forest. It was nice to have a little compost toilets and shed filled with bug spray. The bug were super bad when we were there.

The site was easy to get to. It was close to the road and well screened by the woods. There is another camp site to the west that you could barely see it was not occupied during my stay. The neighbors did shot firework on one night. I found the site relatively quite and private. I found plenty of hiking opportunities around Necedah. The site was clean and well laid out. I have a Roof top tent.

Be Careful
To start, the host was extremely nice and responsive. The site was unfortunately trashed and we were unable to stay. We ended up having to get a hotel under such stress. If the site was clean, it was a nice exclusive spot that we wouldn’t have minded. Fair warning if you do stay, it’s incredibly buggy.
