Katie's campsite is a welcoming retreat, tucked away with stunning views of the ocean and a quiet atmosphere. Reviewers consistently highlight the clean facilities, including a hot shower and flush toilet, which provide comfort after a day of exploring nearby attractions like Lunenburg. The site is family-friendly, with the host Katie, her family, and even their friendly lab, Bo, contributing to the warm experience. While one review mentioned a feeling of disrepair on the property, the majority of campers appreciate the inviting, well-maintained environment and the efforts to enhance the guest experience.

Boho Moho

The location of this hipcamp is amazing. Ocean views, quiet neighborhood and easy 15 min drive into Lunenburg. The boho moho was comfortable and everything functions relatively well. Katie was super friendly and helpful too! Highly recommend!

Legends by the Sea

Katie was an excellent host and made sure that our enjoyable stay at Legends By The Sea was comfortable. The location was a great launching point for exploring the area. The camper itself was very clean, organized and the beds comfortable for three in our family.
