Cow Camp offers a truly unique experience with its expansive ranch setting, where privacy and safety are prioritized for guests. The presence of grazing cattle and the open space make it ideal for relaxation and exploration, particularly for those traveling with dogs. Guests consistently praise the hosts, Bandy and Rosalie, for their responsiveness and hospitality, enhancing the overall stay. While the setting is quiet and secluded, some visitors have noted the occasional road noise and spotty cell service, which could be a consideration for those needing constant connectivity.

This was a great place. Came here with my dog and two kids and had a great time exploring the area. We will come back here.

This was such a gorgeous ranch and I loved the privacy and safety offered. The Cow Camp was perfect and we got to relax and watch the cows graze during breakfast and dinner. My dogs were tethered by a 50ft leash and anchored to the ground, my dogs absolutely loved the open space and ability to explore safely also. Feeding the horses was a great experience also I loved talking to the family about their animals, land, and hobbies.

The camp was exactly what I was looking for. Private. Large property. Beautiful. And cattle everywhere.
