Two acres with lots of trees. Sunny or shaded spot as preferred. Creek runs behind property. Fireplace in primary campsite with lots of local firewood—Burn all you want. Less than a mile off interstate. Newly opened (Nov 21) Pilot truck stop at exit. Auto diesel available at front pumps. No RV island, dump or propane. (Propane fill available nearby at great rates however). Stated 2 max units. but could easily acomodate 5 or more class Bs or small motorhomes (Navion/View...) if caravaning, and pure boondocking. Well behaved pets welcome off leash anywhere on property. My co-host Daisy (pictured) is pretty much a free range dog. Suggested Local Attractions: 35 miles to Downtown Kansas City. Good base camp to explore all KC has to offer. Weston MO, Atchison KS or Leavenworth KS offer a lot for history buffs, less than 40 minutes away.

Gene and Daisy were super accommodating and friendly! We're traveling across the country to visit some friends and family so while it was a fairly quick stop, Gene gave us some great advice regarding our route (which we definitely took) and seemed to be a wealth of knowledge. Daisy, of course, was an absolute pleasure. Gene trimmed the trees back before our arrival, was flexible as we arrived later than originally thought, and even let us take some firewood for our little wood stove! Overall we were level, safe, out of the wind and the proximity to the interstate and Pilot meant it was a cinch to fuel up and hit the road. We would definitely stay again!

Enjoyed a very peaceful night at this location. Host was there to greet us when we arrived. Great spot. Very close to the interstate but very quiet.

Gene and his dog Daisy are the perfect host. Great level spot right off the interstate. We would definitely stay there again.

Gene and his friendly canine co-host, Daisy met us, actually waived us down as we pulled in to the wrong driveway. Gene guided us through the property to a shaded, level spot with a sweet little sitting area right outside the trailer door. Gene and his ‘co-host’ Daisy are so very friendly and welcoming. Added touch there is a Pilot Station w/deisel at the Highway exit and Little Cabin in the Woods is less than a mile away. Thank you for a peaceful, restful stay.
