This was a gorgeous spot. The stars and sunsets were incredible. Of the beaten path which we love. There was a cargo train that passed by a couple of times! We would definitely stay again.

Safe Boondocking
We love to boondock. Red Rock Retreat was far enough from the interstate to feel like you were out far from everyone and everything. The stars were amazing. No lights anywhere. We had a peaceful nights rest and felt safe. Regan answered all our questions and enough let us know the weather for the night. We would definitely stay here again. No water or hook up, but everything we needed.

Great Host
Although not being able to make it to the campsite due to vehicle issues and having to cancel. I must add that Regan was very easy to communicate with, gave very clear and descriptive directions and was overall pleasant. Regan was very understanding on the issues we were having and gave great hosting skills

Friendly host and nice private site with table and a place for your hammock. However the road was a little rough on the bottom of my rental
