Very quiet and private campsite. Been back a few times and it's always pleasant.

Would not recommend
Extremely disappointed we had to park just off the road to be able to sleep in the camper. No level spot to park. We only pulled in enough to not be on the road. You are welcomed to the site by a pile of junk hidden behind a brick wall. It would of taken less time to remove the junk than to build the wall. The feel if the site was abandoned, the fire pit was in ruin the furniture is broken down. The pond is more of a swamp created by a large crater in the soil and standing water that didn't absorb into the ground. The mosquitoes were too abundant by the "pond".

Nice place, very quiet, fewer mosquitoes than I feared (thank you frogs and dragonflies). The hammock was an unexpected bonus. I personally wouldn't want to swim in the pond (it's a bit overgrown with plenty of algae) but YMMV. I enjoyed my stay.

*If your looking for local wood there, in the town of Flesherton (12 min drive) is a Shell gas station which sells bundles. The site was easy to find with the road sign of the address number given, and parking was straight forward, if only on a notable downward hill. Getting to the pond was simple enough and the site is quite nice. There is a walking path which goes around the pond which was a bit under maintained at the time of my visit, with overgrowth throughout the middle of the path. Overall it was a great isolated place to camp at.

Beautiful site, nice and private! Hubby and I absolutely loved our stay and will be visiting again. The outhouse was fantastic, much nicer than I was anticipating. Had a fire pit with grill, chairs, and a table - there was also BBQ equipment (including flippers). Super quiet and private but be warned it definitely gets dark at night, perfect for stargazing by the pond.

A perfect weekend away
A beautiful little spot with my little Alto pop-up. The meteor shower was spectacular from the pond.
