Wine Trail Wilderness - Elec. 30amp
What a lovely place to camp! They have added thoughtful touches (the coolest composting toilet hut I’ve seen) and clearly have great respect for nature. We stayed near the ‘grainzebo’ for electrical access and it served us well during the very hot day we arrived. A large cooler of ice water awaited us also. We brought two horses and a portable corral which worked well in the large grassy meadow. Good folks!

This was my second visit, and it was wonderful. When I am camping in the region this is my go to location. Jon is an amazing host.

I celebrated my 50th WTW!! 🥳
I chose to go camping for my 50th birthday. My son and I landed at Wine Trail Wilderness (WTW) for two extremely hot days! We both really enjoyed our stay at Jon's Grainzebo. I chose this spot for its uniqueness and the fact it offered electrical outlets for an outdoor camping experience. 👍🏽

Jon was extremely accommodating to all of our needs, including me having to change our arrival date. He made sure we had an ample amount of water every day we were there. This was great to have as temps reached the low 90s!! 🥵
.
We enjoyed it when Jon and Norton stopped by! Good thing they did as we had no idea how to play bocce ball! Jon was kind enough to tell us the rules. After that, my son beat me twice! 🤪
.
I couldn't have chosen a better place with an awesome host as I did at WTW and with Jon as our host. We will be back! But it'll be when it's less hot. So I'm thinking it would be around early fall! 🍂
.
Thank you for helping make my 50th birthday a memorable, relaxing, and amazing one, Jon!

Jon has a fantastic property and is a host that goes above and beyond. Two wineries walking distance others short drives. Trail heads and hiking surround the area. By simply asking Jon will try and accomadate requests and is there to help with any problems that arise, such as dead batteries and show's up with trickle charger and the days spent went uninterupted. Thank you Jon......

Great relaxing weekend!
Jon is a great host! He is very accommodating & generous. We enjoyed our time camping on his land. We were at the Hilltop site, where we had the whole field to ourselves, along with a fire pit, a table with chairs, a privy, & a shaded spot to hang our hammock. Jon even had wine waiting for us when we arrived, which was perfect after our long drive. The weekend went by way too quickly. Would certainly recommend to all!

My family loved Jon's land. He was very friendly, to the time to show us around and to let us know where everything was. It was nice that he had Bacci set up so we had a great time. I don't like to rave about outhouses but this one was great. No bugs, it dint smell and it was very clean. His system really worked. I will definitely stay here again. I gave the owner and the land 5 stars!!!
