We can accommodate B class RV, a truck camper, a van, small C Class RV or a small trailer. Up to 20ft size will fit inside our property with the gate closed. If your RV or trailer is longer than 20ft then the gate will have to remain open. Note: we can accommodate motorhome RV max 25 feet total length, or travel trailer max 22 feet length including a hitch. There is a very slight slope on the pad so you may want to level your RV a bit. We have boards and bricks available and will help with the process. A trailer would have to be unhitched. Your towing vehicle can be parked on the street, in front of our house. Fire pit, loungers, and covered furnished patio are available for our guests to use in the summer.

Recently retired and loving it. Currently own 23ft StarCraft trailer. Pawrents to three cats that accompany us on camping trips. When we bought our first 17ft Hummingbird trailer four years ago, we became addicted to camping. We love kayaking, biking, birdwatching, storytelling by the fire, walks on easy trails. Eva likes - reading, crafts, visual arts and creative writing, designing of any sorts Dave likes - woodworking, computers troubleshooting, movies Prior to RVing and prior to pandemic we used to travel mostly overseas, to Europe. We are easy going and very open minded couple with diverse ethnic and cultural background. Eva can communicate in German, Polish and Russian.

The host was very kind and warm, and she had a whole little backyard patio set up with Wi-Fi that we could use. The space is perfect sized for our non-extended Transit, but not much bigger.
