We stopped one night as we were needing a quick place to rest. This was our first BW stay. The host communicated well with us. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to meet him. The place was very quiet and peaceful. Everything stated in the description was accurate. Very close to the interstate but no road noise. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay there again.

Gene is a gracious and attentive host. He also responded quickly to a late night request which prevented the family and I from having to camp in the Walmart parking lot. Even got topped off with water and was able to run the AC off electric. He's got a very friendly dog named Daisy that wanted to join us on our trip (and we would have taken her!). She must be used to traveling with Gene. The surrounding environs is lush with trees which provide relief from the sun. The parking strip was level, too. There was a separate area to detach the tow dolly and vehicle. While we didn't have a fire in the pit there is plenty of provided fuel, which is a nice gesture. Gene respects any level of engagement, but if you like a good story like I do I'd encourage lending an ear; he's a good storyteller. Thanks Gene!
