This campsite offers a mixed bag of experiences. Many visitors appreciate the unique setting, with highlights like feeding farm animals and the opportunity to stargaze in a serene environment. However, some guests have faced challenges with finding the location and communication issues with the host, which have marred their stay. It's a place with potential, especially for those who enjoy rustic camping and don't mind bringing their own gear.

We couldn’t find the place and have still not been contacted by the host. Asked locals and they hadn’t heard of it so thinking it might have been a scam or no longer running since all other reviews are from years ago. Having to call made it difficult as we didn’t have a US number, I used two strangers phones and both times went straight to voicemail . We ended up having to rough it and were shot at during the night which was not the best experience.

We had a great stay here! We got to see some puppies and a bunch of farm animals. The host was very friendly and we enjoyed hanging with him. We spent 2 days there and did some dirt biking across the road at Ballinger canyon.

Because we arrived and it was dark, it was really hard to find the place. Found ourselves in the middle of an orchard after we drove exactly as we were told. I tried calling the host three times from my phone and also texting him from the app but he didn't reply. Only the fourth time. While I tried to call through the hip app, I was able to get a hold of him. Also, by that time I was able to find the place. We were greeted by a very nice gentleman that showed us around and also welcomed us in the morning. He let us feed the animals which was nice. Overall the place is not being taken care of. Underwhelming but if you need a place to stay a night, it's relatively okay.
Communication wise it wasn't the best experience after driving in the dark, it would have been nice if he would have picked up the phone or the texts.

What a beautiful place to escape the city and catch a meteor shower. Very simple but exactly want we needed, a table and BBQ for cooking, a bathroom and place to pitch a tent. An added bonus of being able to feed the deer located on the property. We even got to interact with the boss of the property Gertal, she sure is sassy haha. Our favorite part was laying out on the platform next to the boat seeing all the stars and meteors. What a magical place.

Had the pleasure of doing some car camping out here Memorial Day Weekend. Stars everywhere and animals everywhere. The animals will follow you around. You are definitely roughing it a bit and it’s about a 20min drive into town so be prepared!

This site is most definitely a work in progress and does not look anything like the pictures posted here. I ended up camping in the monument instead.
