went into this spot. This was such a wonderful campsite, a literal hidden gem. If you like to camp, you need to come visit this place. The tent will easily fit 4-5 people. It was clean and the raised platform really makes you feel better about bugs, snakes, etc… \n\nYou are about 100ish feet from the river. No, there isn’t a dedicated beach to relax at but there are several openings to lounge by the water. There’s about 150ft to walk along the river as well which is the host’s property. We brought our fishing gear, but there wasn’t any good fishing spots at the site unfortunately. \n\nYou also get a fresh water natural spring with small waterfall which was magical. You really get the sense of serenity and tranquility while you’re staying here. \n\nMake sure to bring extra batteries for the host’s provided lanterns/fans throughout the campsite and tent. It was nice having a private restroom and shower outhouse. If you’re taller, you’ll have to get real low to the ground to get a good clean with the solar showers. (Make sure to fill the shower bags and leave them in the sun to warm throughout the day.) The road is the best spot for this. \n\nOverall, we felt very comfortable and safe. Everything is very clean and is set up for you to enjoy with minimal stress. We definitely plan on coming back. Thank you Thomas for allowing us to use your beautiful property!" }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jennie S." }, "datePublished": "June 12, 2022", "reviewBody": "Cynefin at Folklore Forest was really special. Thomas has provided all the amenities to make it a luxurious camping experience. The spot it beautiful, the river is so clear, and it's very private. We only wish we had had more time to spend at the site! Thomas was a great communicator. " }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Andrew C." }, "datePublished": "June 21, 2022", "reviewBody": "Awesome set up and great time with the family! Can’t say enough about how great this place is- not too primitive but that great outdoors feel. Everything is well thought of by Thomas and the attention to detail is second to none! As stated in the description, there is no cell service (which we loved!) but a short drive up the road and you can reconnect. We spent the weekend with our three kids+dog and everyone had a great time. Highly recommend!!" }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Alison B." }, "datePublished": "June 28, 2022", "reviewBody": "Cynefin was a lovely, private, wooded respite. Thomas was responsive to the questions that I had in advance as well as providing a lovely list of things in the area to do of which there are many. It's a cute town with lots of makers selling their wears and in close to proximity to an adorable market and other fun activities. Any instructions for the campsite we might have needed were provided in a great welcome binder. The site and tent were nicely maintained and stocked with all the kitchen supplies and some extras that we might need. Oh! and the bed was really comfy :)\n\nWe loved sitting in the river and watching our dogs explore. In general, it was fantastic to relax and enjoy the tranquility and sights and sounds of nature surrounding us. We hope to be back some day to explore more of the area!" }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jaime L." }, "datePublished": "July 24, 2022", "reviewBody": "We stayed 2 nights and absolutely loved it here! Thomas and Kelly have a well-kept and beautiful campsite prepared with all the basics you could possibly need to allow for a stress-free camping experience. The owners were friendly and responsive with all the answers to our questions, plus extra tips to help prepare. Having the river so close by was a LUXURY, especially when you’re in need of additional water. We didn’t bother with the wood stoves, but we almost immediately ran out of firewood the first night when we tried to use the provided ones for a fire pit. So if you have a portable gas stove and butane cans, bring them!!\nEven though there are some trails, there is not too much to explore outside of the campsite. Bring plenty of portable lighting, as it gets pitch black without it. The outside string lights will light up, but will die out quickly once it gets pitch black (the solar panel for these lights are placed in a shaded area). The string lights inside the tent were beautiful and perfectly warm lighting for the night. On the first night, we found the batteries to these lights were dead, but were able to find fresh batteries the next day. Having extra batteries will come in handy!\nOnce we got the hang of everything the first night, everything was so much easier to navigate. We were thrilled our first camping experience was with Cynefin at Folklore Forest and we are so looking forward to coming back again!!" } ] } ``` [robots.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/robots.txt) · [llms.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/llms.txt) · [sitemap](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/sitemap_index.xml)
