Bob has a big heart and a generous spirit. His land is beautiful, easily accessible, and feels like home. We are immensely grateful to have conversation and time with Bob and a serene place to stay the night. Thank you and blessings!

Such a quiet and peaceful stay. Bob was amazing with helping us get set up and parked. He is very genuine, kind, and made us feel very welcomed . A plus is that the property is beautiful and has walking paths. I will plan to stay again if in the area.

This was one of the most peaceful and relaxing locations we have stayed. Our host helped guide us in from the road and the best way to park so we could access water and electric. Plus, we were invited to hike and explore along the host's property. We took him up on it and it was a wonderful adventure. Our host was particularly nice to our 5 year old girl, blessing her with a coloring book and few other little things. We enjoyed talking with him on several occasions. He was able to give us a lot of advice on places to visit. The photos you see on his page represent how it actually looks. We enjoyed our stay so much we wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a great stay at Alta Vista. Unfortunately it was a cold and rainy day and we didnt arrive until after 4:30pm. Bob was fantastic he was out there in the rain to help us park. Its a great spot lots of trees, a nice fire pit and chairs, power and water. Thank you Bob. We highly recommend Alta Vista.

We found Bob to be fun, helpful and ready to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Hook ups were easy - although my own water connector was messed up. We enjoyed the quiet far out in the hills.
