Great place to camp. The lake was a bit low when we were there, but even so it was Great place to camp. The lake was a bit low when we were there, but even so it was lovely and Jeffrey lovely And had 12 pelicans. What more can you want?

The farm is great and Geoff is so nice! We are the only camper this time and we love the spot close to the lake. It’ll be better if we didn’t come on a rainy day, cause the road gat muddy. PS. Chat with Geoff for navigation before you go and not to use direction link on Hicamp (for now, hope Hicamp could correct it in the future). We’ve been navigated to another direction.

Nice spot

Had a great time camping over Easter weekend on Geoffrey's property with friends. Plenty of space for all 8 of us to set up tents under shade with picnic tables and toilet right next to us. Pros: Quiet and spacious spot with green grass next to the lake. Got some nice sunrises/sunsets. Cons: The lake itself at the moment is very shallow (waist deep) and muddy which means that it's not great for swimming currently. We went in once but I wouldn't advise

Bird watcher's paradise

This was such a beautiful spot! The lake is only 30% full and more like a wetland right now but it was still stunning, with an incredible variety of birdlife to enjoy. And Geoff was a very helpful, friendly host. Unfortunately, the large group of campers next to us were incredibly inconsiderate, parting loudly every night until after midnight. They weren't even close by (maybe 25m) but their selfishness had a negative impact on our experience. Not the camp's fault of course. I would like to return, hopefully not at the same time as these dimwits.
