This 40 Acre parcel has been in my family since the 1870's when my Great^4 grandparents homesteaded it. For the first 50 years or so, It was used as a hay field and cattle pasture, but it has been managed as a tree farm ever since and we are still doing periodic selective harvests. It was handed down through the paternal family to my Great Uncle, who passed away in 2013 and deeded it to my 2nd cousin in the will. My Dad and I bought it from my cousin, who lives in Arizona, together. Then my Wife and I bought my Dad out with our share of the profits from our first commercial thinning. Although I plan to do some minor harvesting in the future, I no longer intend to do any clearcutting. Selective harvests only. I hope that campers will make ample use of windfalls and other debris to keep the fire risk low. I also use the property as a release site for wildlife caught as part of my urban nuisance wildlife business.

This campsite is a perfect spot for families and groups seeking a peaceful outdoor retreat. Guests consistently praise the spacious, well-maintained grounds, and the clean facilities, including a spotless port-a-potty. The area offers plenty of shaded spots for tents and open meadows for stargazing. While trails are abundant, some are slightly overgrown, adding a touch of adventure to your explorations.

This was a wonderful place for my family to come together and camp. Nice shady area for all of our tents and campers, and a lot of trails to explore. The dogs loved it as well!

Thick Forest Seclusion

Fantastic spot - very quiet, nice mix of trees for summer shade and open meadows for stargazing. Trails are a little overgrown in some areas but there are plenty to explore. Large campsite is perfect for groups. Bring an axe for deadfall fire wood, the one in the shed at the campsite is broken. Port-a-potty was spotless and a decent distance from the camp to be convenient but not intrusive. Definitely plan on returning for another camping trip.

Thick Forest Seclusion

We camped with three other families on Jack's property with 5 kids under three, and we had an incredible time! There was so much space for the kids and dogs to run, but it still felt enclosed enough that we didn't worry about them getting lost. There was plenty of space for all of our tents, and the trees provided great shade. The private portable toilet was so nice to have, and there were many beautiful trails to explore. We would love to come back!
