THE SETTING

Wooded, family-focused campsite

Camp Site #22 sits under a treeline and is positioned for family camping: quiet, wooded, and designed to foster a campground atmosphere where rowdiness and substance abuse are not tolerated.

THE STYLE

Primitive camping—no on‑site utilities

This is a primitive campground: sites have no electricity or running water, so stays emphasize self‑sufficiency and a close connection to the outdoors.

THE RULES

Clear capacity and conduct rules

Bookings carry explicit occupancy and conduct guidelines: the site enforces limits on people and tents, a strict line on disruptive behavior, and requires guests to acknowledge Morgan’s rules when reserving.

What the day feels like

What a stay feels like

Arrival is a deliberate slowing down: set a tent beneath the canopy, light a lantern as evening falls, and trade the convenience of hookups for quiet and wooded privacy. Without electricity or water at the site, evenings favor campfire conversations and early nights beneath the trees; the operator’s rules and occupancy limits keep the mood family‑oriented and controlled.
