Fantastic Get-away!
Wonderful host! Beautiful campsite! Clean Port-a-potty, with 2-ply toilet tissue! Awning over a picnic table for a nice dinner, there's a grill, fire ring, wood supplied and chairs.
We camped at "Big D's Pond", one of his two camping sites.
The only drawback is that there's no place to wash/clean up. "Hippie baths"
All in all, you will not be disappointed!
