DO NOT PAY FOR THIS NONSENSE!
We originally booked our stay for 2 nights but were stranded the 1st night getting in due to a huge crash on the highway and a fire a couple of miles after that. We were re-routed on our GPS to a 15 mile unpaved road in the dark & decided to turn around & sit tight & sleep on the side of the road closer to the highway. All of this was communicated to the host & he was helpful and understanding. We cancelled our reservation & waited until morning until all was clear. we contacted host again to let him know that we would still like to come and booked ANOTHER reservation for a single night.
Upon arriving we were deeply astonished by the amount of junk (old mattresses, trash, broken down equipment and parts everywhere) on ALL sides of the ‘ranch’ (i say this loosely) I mean, it really felt more like a JUNKYARD/ HOARDER space than anything.
We were still optimistic when instructed to drive past all of that & into the camping area
We proceeded down & found a spot by the grass but were sprayed down by sprinklers & had to move. we moved out by the pasture area (cow patties everywhere on the grounds) & thought all was well until we stepped into our van and realized that 100’s of flies had invaded our space. We spent the rest of our stay battling flies (gross) and trying to drown out the noise of heavy machinery running all day (so loud!)
We are now battling trying to get our original refund returned (host has denied), and are not getting much help from Hipcamp.
Very let down
