Camping with friends and pets
It’s was amazing trip, we a lot of fun the entire time there was a lot to see and explore we had problem getting the car all the way up but they offered a different path to go up and they were really nice. I loved the experience and it was amazing to would come back again. Didn’t see any mountain lions, bobcats, coyotes, or snakes so didn’t have to worry for my pets at all.

We Will Be Back!
Incredible views. Serene. Well maintained campsite with lots of space. Very nice that a garbage can is provided.
Secure as well, locked gate access to the farm property.
Be mindful of the long dirt road heading up to camp. No issue for us in our Passport hauling a camper trailer.
We will be back for sure!

BFE is the place for me!!!
Everything we were looking for! Solitude, fantastic hiking, it was like a fun adventure, and not a single human being in sight! Attentive host just a text away to answer questions when needed.
I only wish there was a place to hang my hammock ;) thanks for the great stay!

no shade but wonderful stargazing
Overall we had a good experience but there are definitely some things campers should know:
The drive from the road to the is rough for a 2WD or even our FWD converted cargo van.
There is no shade at the site, which makes it imperative to bring your own. Unfortunately our easy-up canopy ripped in the wind.
The stars are wonderful but the angle of a nearby rise/bend in the main road is such that you will frequently see headlights shining toward you from a distance.
Critters are definitely all around you so be prepared especially at night.
Once they adjusted, my kids loved the bouldering and exploring at the site and we left during the daytime to find cooler temps and adventures.
