House Rules
Keep left when you get to the circular driveway. A travel trailer 30 feet long no problem but report it was not easy. My airstream is 31' long. Best to come for the first time in the daylight. I have found that people that come after sunset have had the following problems. Driving down the wrong street, getting stuck in my neighbors driveway because they could not turn around. Getting frustrated that they can not find my house when they are on the wrong street, when they arrive after dark they tend to say they had trouble parking because they could not see. Make life easy and arrive during daylight. My dog loves other dogs, he will want to play with other dogs. If you are traveling with a pet that can not be around other dogs, or have a tiny dog that needs to be separated from a 80 pound playful dog you are going to have a difficult time. If you are traveling with a sick pet, please cancel. I don't want my dog to get sick.
Location
I have a circular drive way that an RV being towed by a truck could back into. Keep Left when entering the circle. It will give you a shallower grade when you exit. Call if you plan to arrive before noon. You can arrive anytime you like. I would suggest before it gets dark the first time.

A few years ago I purchased an Airstream from my best friend. We have enjoyed traveling with it. We both work in the Property Management industry. Additional I love anything aviation related. I’m a commercial pilot and work for an NHRA race team sponsor.

George is an exceptional host who makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. We have never stayed right on a lake with access to water, power and dumping. Watching the Canadian Geese protecting their nest every morning proved entertaining. Weather was fabulous and the company even better. Enjoyed meeting fellow boondockers and watching their children enjoy the fishing opportunities. We had no problem navigating the entrance and the exit with our 22 foot rig and George’s map ahead of time proved especially helpful. 15-20 minute drive to many mountain biking spots including US Whitewater Centre, Airline, Poston and Rocky Branch made it an amazing location for us. So nice to meet Suzanne as well. We hope to be back soon. Thanks so much George! In addition I really appreciated the opportunity to give back to George junior pursuing higher education. Having two still in university I understand and was so happy to help. Wonderful host!

This was yet another winner in a long list of winners on the BW list. I had a super peaceful night. Although I personally enjoyed the experience of the steep driveway and sharp turn around with my 21' travel trailer, the host is of course accurate about getting their even longer Airstream and camper down there. It is very do-able. I'm simply saying if you have a longer rig in the upper 20s or low 30s and you're not a pro at maneuvering it in tight spaces, this probably isn't the place for you. No fault of the hosts, of course. I loved it and it was perfect for me. Great communication and - like always- super friendly and gracious hosts. I would definitely come back.

What a great spot right on the lake. George is a terrific host, even after we arrived almost 3 hours late. He helped us easily back into an ample spot with a ramp preset to level our rig. 30 amp power and water is right there along with fast WiFi. One of our favorite spots so far on BW. We’ll be back!
