The location right along the Grand River was beautiful. Convenient access to town while feeling remote at the same time

We loved our stay here! The host was super nice and communicated with us through all of our questions. It was not too buggy especially for being right on the (beautiful) river… I would suggest this spot to anyone interested:)

We had a great time at this spot. Our campsite had a lovely view of the river. It was close to town where we walked to each day. Matthew was responsive and helpful.

Pretty farm camping
This was a pretty and relaxing place to spend a night. Our site overlooked the river and was at the back of Matthew’s field. There is a little trail down to the river if you want to sit down there or swim. There was also a big raft with an anchor available. Overall, the area was quiet, but you could hear the generators of a nearby factory running during the night. You could also hear the farm animals, but we really enjoyed that. This was a nice place to do a one-night camp trip with our newborn: accessible, pretty, not too rural. There weren’t any signs marking the sites, but the paths to them were well-mowed.

We wnjoyed our tent stay
We had a great stay for one night of tent camping at this site. Matthew mowed a trail through his property, so it was easy to follow to guide us back to the areas open for us to set up our tents right near the Grand River. Added bonus were the cute sheep and donkey grazing in the field near by. We felt sheltered and safe here. We were able to walk the half mile into town to eat dinner and breakfast. We would recommend this site for tent camping to anyone that needs a safe place to camp for a night or two. There is no running water or toilet. But you could filter water out of the Grand River or walk into town and buy some at the gas station. Mild traffic noise from near by road was the only con, and it was not bad at all. Ear plugs would work well for light sleepers.
