Holler-lujah in the Run
Peaceful and Delicious
This place is wonderful and full of adventure! Bill was also very kind and helpful. I had a lovely time with my dogs playing in the water and just wandering around the camp site. Also bill was kind enough to set up a ladder by a mulberry tree, as they were in season, so I picked a lot of them for breakfast one day and they were delicious. The campsite has a beautiful view of the forest canopy and the stream. The whole experience was peaceful and magical and I will probably be going back sometime soon.

Holler-lujah in the Run
We had a great time staying here! The host was very friendly & made sure our stay was comfortable. It was great being able to explore his land & enjoy all the fruits, nuts & views! It stormed pretty hard while being there but we still had a great time & all our stuff was safe! 10/10 recommend & we will be back ourselves!
Holler-leujah!

This is a great spot! Very remote but close enough for us to get out to some local parks and breweries in the area.
Bill gave us a map of the land and had some great recommendations for things to do. Would definitely return!

RU Ready To RV?
Nuts, Frogs, & unexpected delights
We did not end up camping at the new RV spot in the Orchard b/c of the wet ground and weather.
We instead parked our RV on his property that has the old farmhouse. We had not expected this but it worked out nicely. We didn't have the 30 amp plug but he had an extension cord so we could at least plug up to power which was fine with us. Our RV awning broke while we were there and Bill took time to help us fix it, even though we knew he had other obligations. We spent a bit of time talking with him and he is truly one of a kind. He has his hands in all kids of fun projects and was a wealth of interesting knowledge.
The property by the old house had an outdoor shower, fire pit, and a lovely pond that had the most beautiful symphony of frogs.
Bill was great with our kids (ages 6 and 4). He did a presentation about nuts and it was funny, informative, and perfect for our kids. He sang songs, played the ukulele, and had nuts to share. He taught the kids how to use a old school nut cracker.
Overall, our experience was not what we planned, but turned out to be everything we needed.
We plan to stay friends with Bill and go visit again.

Peace and beauty
The land is beautiful. Orchards abound , wildflowers throughout. The "Holler"is truly a hollow, whole other world and FULL OF LIFE !
The Gramping shack was just right for my dog and myself. Cozy and positioned well on the property.
Bill is a great host and cook as well. I was tickled pink at the wonderful wild edibles and farm goodies he provide. Just ask about all the goodies. Two thumbs up!
I'd stay again for sure. Actually I didn't want to leave. It's my kind of heaven on earth!!

Best Hipcamp first impression!
Highly recommend staying here if you want privacy and the best camping experience. I chose this property to get away from the busy, crowded campgrounds and I was in for a treat! Upon arrival, Bill met us at the top of the hill and offered to drive our gear down to the campsite since we drove a car. We were able to get to the parking area safely in a Honda civic. Bill helped us get settled and showed us all the amenities of the site (which were more than we expected). The site itself was pretty open, very private and so relaxing. We had access to a small cabin where we could store our stuff out of the elements and even a mini fridge and hot plate! We partook in the wild foods walk with Bill and his business partner “Bulldog” and had a wonderful time trying all the native plants in the area. The property was very dog friendly and my dog was off leash most of the time. There are chickens on the property so I leashes her periodically for safety’s sake. The stars at night are second to none! We planned on using the campsite as a base to visit nearby national parks, but ended up staying at the campsite because we were enjoying it so much. 10/10 will stay here again!
