Wonderful stay very near to Tippy Dam.

The property was very nice. Plenty of room for the friend to stay during our fishing trip. Super quiet area with no traffic. There was a nice campfire area with chairs that we enjoyed. Our host was very nice. We had a great time there and would stay again.

Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2023
