Gorgeous site, host is very rigid
Tent · With kids
Beautiful backdrop. Great camping setup. Running water and electric. Grounds are very well maintained. This part of the river had tons of algae flowing through. None of us felt comfortable swimming, especially after reading about all of the pollution in the waterway from the chicken farms up river. However, none of that is the host fault. On our date of arrival, there was a massive amount of thunderstorms that popped up in the area. Typical Oklahoma. Since we were tent camping with littles we didn’t feel comfortable coming in on that day. We asked Tyson if we could get a refund for that night, or allow us to use that night another time. He refused, citing the hipcamp policy. However I was quickly able to locate the Hipcamp host policies which clearly state that the host has discretion to issue a refund by simply emailing the Hipcamp customer service. We are very sad that Tyson opted not to exercise this discretion considering it’s $100 a night, and that these storms came out of nowhere. We were literally on our way to the site and ended up turning around because of the lightning/weather. We won’t book here again on principal and strongly encourage anybody booking this site to have a crystal ball or some sort of magical way to anticipate whether in Oklahoma, Because Tyson will absolutely not extend any grace.
