The attached lower level garage, is where we keep equipment and supplies necessary for the campground. We may periodically access this space during your stay.

The ground level of the cabin IS shared with other potential guests, as this is the commons area for the property. * We are an ADULTS ONLY property * Weekends and holidays can sometimes be the most common days booked depending on how hot it is outside. During the really hot and cold temperatures, there likely won't be any primitive camping guests booking, therefore, there should be more seclusion during those times. Ultimately, if you're looking for a more private and secluded time, book Sunday-Thursday. * Water source is well and has not been tested, so water is NOT POTABLE. * There will be bugs throughout the season and there will be some mosquitos (factors out of our control). Did we mention that we're surrounded by the river, woods, and crop fields? Bring bug spray, sunscreen, bottled water, and whatever necessities you need for a comfortable stay. UBER/LYFT: WILL drop you off in Portage Des Sioux, but you WILL NOT pick you up from Portage Des Sioux. Taxi Cab service WILL pick you up from Portage. Plan ahead if you will not have a vehicle.
