Another great stay at Goodwill Farms!
Thank you again for a great stay. We loved visiting with the hosts and the animals! The kids loved it too! This is one of our favourite boondocking spots to visit. If we are in the area again we will definitely be back 😊

Perfect Visit !
What a great final stopover on our trip from Vancouver Island, for our last visit with Boondockers Welcome hosts, before reaching home near Winnipeg! Beautiful camp spot, great site and services, farm setting, and gracious friendly people. Animal lovers paradise, and three new friends, our hosts and Cammy, their dog. Plan to return next trip west.

Great experience at Goodwill Farms
A very positive and unique experience in a beautiful setting with great, experienced BW hosts made our stay here a highlight of our trip across Canada.
Easy access with our 45' truck and trailer in an area that is picturesque, in southern Manitoba farm country.
Highly recommended!

Grateful!!
We were travelling across Canada in December and with a same day request, our hosts at Goodwill, totally welcomed us to stay. Super accommodating and lovely spot. Our stay was short so we would love to go back and meet the farm animals. 😉

Charming farm and lovely couple
What a cute farm with lots of horses and cows. The hosts were helpful and kind. We loved meeting and feeding some of the horses. Beautiful property. Thanks for hosting us.

Slice of Heaven
We had a short but sweet (and cold) stay at this beautiful farm! The hosts were kind and sincere! We were even introduced to some of their gorgeous horses! Highly recommend and hope to stay again on our return trip in warmer weather!
Thanks again!

Warm and welcoming
I stayed here for 2 nights. The weather was unseasonably cold but the hosts were extremely warm. Nice farm with cows and very friendly horses. Great dog, Camy (sp?), friendly cats.
The host was very helpful with some issues I continue to have on this trip and I would like to return in better times to get to know them.

Fantastic
Our stay with Joe and Lynn was like coming home to visit family. Lynn has decorated the yard just for us boondocks. Howard enjoyed talking farming with Joe and so did I. Directions were bang on. Next time were staying a couple of night. We went into town and walked the swimming bridge. Just great

What An Exceptional Experience!
Our hosts made our very first Boondockers Welcome experience exceptional! Not only were they warm and welcoming but the site for the RV was perfect. On top of all that they took us to visit the bison and we toured and fed the cows and horses! If we had to rate our stay out of 10, we'd give it a 20+!!

Beautiful Views and Excellent Company
The Goodwill Farm is a beautiful representation of farm life in rural Manitoba! Spectacular views of sprawling acres of fields, and friendly horses and cattle to visit with as well. The Hosts were as friendly and accommodating as can be! We loved hearing their stories, sharing company, and being introduced to their beautiful cows. We couldn’t be more thankful for the privilege of visiting, and hope we can again soon!

Carefree in the country
A peaceful and absolutely delightful place to stay. They have a great set up for boondocking that makes you feel so welcome.
Great conversation at night. In the morning, they invited us to tour around their farm. We got to hang out with horses and cows! On our way out we stopped to watch the herd of bison across the way. Fabulous!

Another Gem!
The amazing Boondockers Welcome community came through again! jlgoodw are the most welcoming and friendly hosts. We had an enjoyable evening with them on their porch chatting about life. They have the most beautiful spot which they encouraged us to explore and they welcomed us to join them as they fed the cows and horses!!!
Thanks so much! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful
These folks were so kind. We arrived late and in the rain, but they were very gracious and helped us with positioning. In the morning, they kindly showed us around their farm. Just a great break from driving. Thank you.

Beautiful working farm
The hosts were extremely accommodating and friendly. Their property is beautiful and a couple of miles from the highway and so is very quiet and restful. We would highly recommend this location!

Very friendly people and a nice quiet spot
We had a very nice time at jlgoodw.
We were late but still we had a nice chat in the evening.
In the morning we saw the farm and talked about traveling
We got a paper with suggestions in the neighborhood and we choose international Peace Garden( no internet)
Thank you very much for the sublime stay.

Amazing Farm Stay
jlgoodw couldn't be more informative, helpful and kind.
Felt like being at an old friends place and we were very sad to leave.
They were very passionate about theyre beautiful farm and gave us a very informative tour.
Stunning location, nice nearby town with a great reasonably priced laundromat at the gas station.
We shared a lovely evening and hope we cross paths again one day.

Best Boondocking Experience
This was definitely our best boondocking experience so far! Our hosts were amazing: they really made us feel like home, they took their time to show us around and explain to us how their lifestyle is with the farm and everything. (So great for animals lovers like us!) It was such an interesting experience and we really enjoyed sharing our stories with the both of you. We hope to have you stay in our place someday! Thank you again xxx
