The campground is conveniently located but set far back enough that you feel like you have entered a secluded farmland where settlers have stopped on their trip to rest for a while.

Everything is set up for you when you arrive with a tray laid out on the bed and the whole place feels warm and welcoming. The pioneers wish they had the kind of space and amenities that these wagons provide. With a heating and cooling air conditioner, a mini fridge, and a coffee maker, you will certainly not be roughing it.

This beautiful scenery is especially pretty in the morning as the fog rolls in and settles in the valley. The sense that you have stepped out into a wide open range with nothing for miles and that is a great feeling that certainly sells the experience even more.
