Learn more about this land: Our property is in a close proximity to the Fairweather Fishing access on the Missouri River. Camping is not allowed at the access so we would be the closest camping site to this great outdoor playground. There is opportunity for fishing, floating, boating, hunting and swimming in the summer . There are groves of mature trees and open sites available. This is directly off of paved county road. The property adjacent to ours has the original ranch house and barn and other outbuildings that were part of the Ponderosa Pine Ranch which owned most of the valley we're in. The ranch house and buildings were divided away from our part of the property several years ago, so we have our home here and what was mostly pasture. The campsites are all pasture grass with trees for shade. We do not have cell phone service here. We have one site that has 30 amp electricity. Also we do not have trash service .Our property is in very close proximity to the Fairweather Fishing access on the Missouri River.

What a beautiful drive to the campsite! Patricia was very responsive and kind. As others have noted, no cell service at the campsite (I had no issues navigating to the site with Google). I had a wonderful night of sleep here on my drive across the state, thank you Patricia!

18 ft campervan

We enjoyed a quiet, comfortable week of mobile work from our campervan at site #5. We were the only campers. The site and amenities were as described and the location was easy to find. Water was from a hose at a pumphouse in the yard. About 100 yards away is home, but with the orientation of the house and campsites, there is enough privacy. The picnic table was in dappled shade. We enjoyed exploring the area after work, especially Missouri River. The outhouse was clean.

Patricia's place is very cozy and quite (apart from a train that passes by a few times per day but not at night). The place is great for Kids, there is a Trampoline, swing and even a zipline. We had a great time, thanks for having us!

A great stop-over

16 ft car

A very nice spot! We pulled in late (and in a rainstorm) and found it easily, and were able to pull right in and settle for the night. We used this as a stopping place on a trip from Oregon to Minnesota, and will again. While it was about 20 mn off the main road, it was a pretty drive and nice to see some views from off the highway. Patricia was great at communicating. We did hear trains, but they did not bother us at all. We liked the spot being tucked into a nice grove of trees. Woke up to a clear morning and fresh smells.

We had a great time! The site was very easy to find and it was very nice to meet Patty. She worked with our changing schedule and was very helpful! I would definitely stop here again!
