Quick response to communications, Eric greeted us in arrival and guided us to area.Great chatting about shipping our UK RV to USA for 12 month road trip & European RV's vs USA. Eric messaged to check in on us and if we needed anything. Nice chat with Eric & Lisa as we were preparing to leave. Overall a very pleasant 2 nights.

We had such a pleasant stay at Howells Acres. Our hosts were very welcoming, we enjoyed a lovely chat and he checked on us before we left. We appreciated the electric hookup and our dog loved running and playing in the yard.

Communication was quick and thorough. Eric met us on arrival and showed us where to park. Enjoyed visiting with him and hearing his story and getting ideas of what to do in the area. Will definitely stay here again.

This was our third stay with Eric and Lisa. We will continue to overnight here when in this area - as long as they will have us. The site is behind a barn behind his house. it is always quiet peaceful, and feels safe. It is less than 2 miles from I-20. Eric has taken care to mark his drive with a traffic cone. The grounds are always neatly trimmed. We used the electrical hook-up which was nice on one of the first cold nights of the season. We didn’t need it, but Eric offered water hookup as well. This is our go-to stop on our trips between SC and Texas. Eric is so kind and helpful. Thank you!
