Customer Reviews
Spent the night at this camp site. The kind host came out to meet me and show me the facilities. Very clean and quiet. You have the place all to yourself for their campground has only one site. It is by a pond with a bench. The picnic table and grill were under a canopy. There is water to fill your tanks, a very clean porta-potty with lights to see at night and electrical outlets for hook-ups. I did not use the electrical outlets so I do not know what the amps are although I read in a previous review that it’s 30 amps. I highly recommend Quiet Countryside Camping! Thank you for a wonderful overnight stay!
Beautiful, quiet spot for camping. 30 amp electric, water available. Very large spot for rv. We have 36ft 5th wheel and 2500 silverado. Lots of shade and grass area. Highly recommend.
