Thanks to our helpful and friendly host at Prairie Gem, we had a peaceful and pleasant overnight stay. Too bad it was a cloudy night- the stars must be magnificent on a clear evening!

We enjoyed a wonderful night stay at Prairie Gem. James came out to meet us when we drove up on the driveway. we had a nice chat and he pointed out where we could park. A beautiful view looking over the prairies. Enjoyed an amazing sunset here and watched the meteorites showers at midnight. Thank you both for your hospitality and allowing to enjoy camping out on the prairie on your very well kept acreage.

James and Marion have a spacious yard with a flat grassy area for parking. Marion was not feeling well the day we were there but we had a very pleasant visit with James. He even brought over a large bowl of delicious, local blueberries for us to enjoy. We would definitely stay there again if we were in that ares.
