The land was purchased from an elderly couple that couldn't enjoy it anymore in 2018. The mobile home and all the junk in the satellite photos has been removed. The mobile home spot has been converted into RV spaces and some of the timber along the river has been trimmed back for private river access. The two garages have been moved to the back of the property. We enjoy the land and recreational activities out there so much, we spend a good part of the summer there in our own RV on the other side of the property. We just love the wildlife and quiet rural area away from the city. Learn more about this land: Monthly Rental: Please message me with any questions or availability, the calendar is not correct.

Family camp out!
It was a great weekend camping at this site! We had one travel trailer and 2 tents. My dog was able to be off leash the whole trip. Our boys shot their BB Guns out to the fields and there were no neighbors! The river right across a little road was so pretty and a peaceful set up down there. Fishing was hard because we snagged on the rocks more than we reeled in, but it was a great spot! 5 out of 5 for sure! Thank you for our stay!

Really nice private access to the river just across an infrequently traveled road. Our host was very friendly and welcoming. The site is excellently maintained with lots of well tended grass and a place at the back of the property to walk dogs. Great place to stay and it’s close to lake Walcott that has legendary sturgeon fishing. Only cautionary note is for dog owners if yours are crazy about water like one of ours is be careful. The speed on the road is 45 and there isn’t much too slow cars down. Lots of wide open space and I would definitely recommend this site. You and your guests will have the whole place to yourself which is outstanding

This site is definitely a place I would come back to. The river hang out spot was really awesome! It even has a nice little snack shop next door.

Amazing all around site
I’ll keep this short and sweet. Single best campsite I’ve ever stayed at. Stunningly beautiful location. Right on the river, tons of wildlife, good fishing (thanks for the tips Afton, we caught a bunch). Very private, some of the darkest skies I’ve ever seen. Generously provided firewood. I have nothing bad to say about it and will definitely book here again. Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed it.

Nice private location, the road is close but not a busy road at all and did not bother us. Great view of the river, nice grassy area for the dog to sleep with a tree for shade. Electric/water /sewer was nice as we were dry camping before and after this location. Also enjoyed a fire one night with wood that was provided.
