Good directions and accommodating. Felt very safe with the guard dogs around.
If you don’t need hook ups- Great host. Easy to find. Private. Gorgeous views Dustin helped with unhooking my tow vehicle and provided me with fresh eggs and vegetables from his garden.
It was nice and the owners were very accommodating.
We enjoyed our time camping on Dustin’s farm. The view from our camper was expansive and the sunset gorgeous. Dustin greeted us with a friendly smile and a gift of fresh eggs, which we had the very next morning. We had a grand time and so did our two dogs. Part of our decision to try this quiet spot … just a stone’s throw from a boating and swimming reservoir … was that our two dogs could go off leash. We will be back soon.
Beautiful spot with a gorgeous sunset view! Stayed for a night along my roadtrip. The goats and dogs are so sweet!
Great view and super friendly host! I love the dog and goats :)
