HOWL offers a unique camping experience, especially for those seeking a safe and inclusive environment, as cis men are not allowed. The land is praised for its natural beauty, privacy, and well-maintained facilities including a charming outhouse and a common area with amenities like a sink, firewood for purchase, and Wi-Fi. Campers appreciate the friendly and helpful hosts, and many mention the breathtaking views and serene atmosphere which make it a great spot for hiking and relaxation. While the campsite is slightly inclined, it is well-maintained and provides a peaceful retreat with plenty of opportunities for solitude and connection with nature.

This land is so special. The view from Octavia Butler was spectacular in the morning. It rained while we were there and having a bit of cover of the trees was really nice. The caretakers are very welcoming and its a great spot to hike Camel’s Hump!

We had a fabulous snowy campsite with wonderful views of the total eclipse. Highlights: kind and caring camp host (Meg),
easy access but still felt remote and “off the grid”, friendly fellow campers.
We will be back and highly recommend this camp to anyone looking for a great balance of solitude and connection. Simply lovely in every way.

I went tent camping here for the eclipse. I chose it because no cis men are allowed at HOWL. That made me feel safe to camp by myself for the first time. During this trip, I discovered that I'm capable of doing a LOT more things than I thought I was capable of before, and I'm going to take that knowledge home with me to apply to the rest of my life.
There's a composting outhouse in easy walking distance, and just past that there's a building with a breezeway, wifi, a coffeemaker, and firewood for purchase. Outside that building there's an outdoor faucet with sink and a couple of picnic tables.
The camping host was very friendly and helpful. The fire ring at the Wangaricampsite is very well maintained. Note that this campsite isn't bumpy, but it's also entirely on a slight incline.
