10/10 First solo camping trip
I loved tent camping on Patty’s land! The trails and campsite were well maintained and the tall trees were stunning to walk under. When I arrived, the campsite had a clean and stocked compost toilet tent for my site, plenty of firewood, and potable water by the table and chairs. There was another campsite with campers nearby, but there was privacy, and the noise levels were respectful the entire stay. Patty greeted me with a very thoughtful welcome bag of literature and treats from local businesses. Prior to my arrival she also sent recommendation for a UPick flower farm that had gorgeous flowers under 20 minutes away. Her family was very kind, helpful and welcoming. Their ducks, chickens, and Guinea fowl greeted me from a distance while I set up my tent and Patty showed me around the coops and let me feed the hens. I even got to hold one of the baby Guineafowl which was a treat! 🐦 The campsite had wild raspberry bushes growing and I enjoyed picking some as I walked the trails. I felt safe as a solo female camper, and she was responsive to the Hipcamp chat during my stay. The rate was very reasonable for all of the included amenities. I plan to return and stay longer next time. I would highly recommend to anyone else looking for privacy, safety and quick access to wildlife and trails without leaving the site!
