This campground offers a peaceful retreat with beautiful landscapes and well-maintained amenities. Campers appreciate the clean restrooms and showers, and the opportunity to explore the trails and interact with the horses. However, some campers noted that the sites are quite close together, and there can be issues with off-leash dogs. Overall, it's a quiet and welcoming spot, especially appealing to those looking to unwind in nature.

Unbeatable!
We were so happy with camping here! Especially for the price, it’s unbeatable. The restrooms/showers are very clean, it’s very easy to find your way around the sites (even in the dark!). The road is easy for even our little sedan to drive on, just kicks up some dust, as expected. The host was so kind. We had a tent site, which is a bit farther from the lodge that has the restrooms. Due to this, the host even offered to let us stay at a closer open campsite since we were arriving late and no one else had it reserved. This was a HUGE bonus as we had been traveling all day and just that little bit of kindness for a bit more ease was incredibly kind, and we are very grateful to Kinser! Everything about the campground itself was fantastic. Well maintained, no problems with finding it via GPS, not too far away from main freeways and big roads, but far enough you don’t get any traffic sounds as you sleep. Instead of traffic sounds, we got some relaxing nature and wildlife “white noise” :) I have stayed at campsites that aren’t even half as nice as this one, but cost a good chunk more. This place is fantastic and I highly recommend it! Thank you so much Kinser!

Mixed feelings
· February 2025
My experience there was mixed the site was very wet and got stuck in the mud trying to back in to the spot. After a long drive that's the last thing you wanna deal with. On a brighter side I called the host at 1030 pm and he did come out right away and towed me out. I guess if your gonna stay there maybe wait till the drier months.

Large expansive property with beautiful horizon views. Quiet and secluded on dirt road. Peaceful! Clean and warm restroom with shower if you need.

Beautiful place. Cool ranch with beautiful horses. Lots of woods with big ravines provided great hikes for us and the kids. During a wetter time there would have even been some pretty cool little waterfalls. We drove down the field to the lake and fished for a bit while the sun set. We never actually met the hosts but they communicated well and let us know if there was anything we needed they were there for us. For just a short drive out of town this felt like a great little getaway.
