Herzen Platz (a place in the Heart)
The site is cute and idyllic on the host's property. It's close to Helen and to good hiking trails, but is also just far enough away to give you space from town if you want it. Gary clearly likes to host and is good at it. Breakfast was wonderful-- he actually went to culinary school and took care crafting a unique menu.

Cozy Backyard Escape
Absolutely loved my recent Hipcamp experience! The hosts were warm and welcoming, and the site itself was incredibly well-maintained, with everything you need for a comfortable, enjoyable camping stay. The spot is perfect for anyone looking to relax and enjoy a bit of nature without going too far off the grid.
While the setting is in someone’s backyard, it still felt peaceful and cozy. There were some occasional barks from owners dogs, but honestly, it added to the homey feel of the place. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to camp with the added convenience of being close to amenities—a hidden gem for anyone looking to enjoy the outdoors without going deep into the wilderness!

A Little Slice of Heaven
So peaceful!!! We loved Gary’s hospitality and of course we loved his doggies! We will definitely make a return trip. Such a great location for all the activities in the area. Take the time and walk the nature trail across the road it is so serene with the stream near the foot path. Pack a little snack and take a break at the picnic table on the trail.

This was our first HipCamp experience and we had the best time here. It was incredibly serene and the perfect way to relax for a weekend. Gary was very accommodating when we ended up arriving later than expected and was super helpful the entire time. We will definitely be coming back!

Highly recommended!
My husband and I spent 2 nights here, and it could not have been nicer! The setting is absolutely breathtaking, our host was so polite, informative and absolute pleasure to talk to. We ordered breakfast. It was definitely the best French toast we have ever eaten! I could go on and on about how great our stay was. I highly recommend staying here!

Great spot close to Helen! The tent was a very nice setup and it was nice to have the amenities there too. I was super looking forward to breakfast, but we had an unexpected emergency so we didn't get to try it. Will book again in the future
