The site is beautiful and very secluded! Visitors must have a vehicle that can drive on dirt, rocky road that maybe muddy. I made it through with a minivan w/ AWD but I was nervous in some tight spots. Not a location for large vehicles to get through. Once at the site there was plenty of space to maneuver a vehicle. Setup a tent right under the pavilion & park a vehicle close by for easy access to items. Toilet is available but nothing fancy - this is camping. It has an actual toilet seat and some wood to provide 3-sided privacy. Bring your own toilet paper and maybe wipes. Can still hear cars and the occasional dog but the birds, breeze, and wood noises are still loud (and nice). The host provides plenty of fire wood, axe, and a nice place to sit around a fire. The hosts are very hospitable, I got a pontoon ride and played pickleball with them.
Plenty of space to park and set up a tent or two. Great view of the pond!
Campfire area with seating and view of pond.
View of camp from opposite side.
Camp without setup. Table, chairs, and wood provided by host.

Could not drive in to site

Misleading. Couldn't drive in because of mud and rough terrain. Could not find owner at first. Although toni was really nice and offered us a place to stay under his deck we felt like we were imposing. Asked about a fire and we were brought next door ti another campers fire. We really felt like we were imposing on someone else quite night with there family. We ended leaving and driving home
