This campsite was just right for a dreamy weekend getaway from the city. It was quiet, well kept, and private, and we loved the tipi and kayaks. The host communicated well through the app, and I would definitely return to this spot.

Great location, even with the rain. Loved having the picnic table and firewood available. The teepee is really cute too! Would definitely come back! Thanks Nicole!

Totally worth it!

Simply Maple is super cute!
My husband and I enjoyed our private spot, including the tipi and plenty of boats to choose from to get on the water. On the water we saw lots of animals/birds. A great little escape. We came from within county so we had brought our own wood, but they had more available on-site for a reasonable price. Nicole & Dan we hospitable, giving us our space. Would definitely recommend for 2 or for a group! She also included a place to charge phones, a picnic table, and a hammock. All great bonuses we didn't expect, but made us have to take less out of the car! Also, you are close by to a lot of local amenities, so if camp food isn't your thing, you can go out or pick up items you forgot!
