This is a very convenient place to boondock for the night. Ken & Sue are great hosts and go over & above to make sure your stay is perfect. We have stayed here many times and it feels like meeting old friends again each time we stay. Thanks a lot and we will see you in the spring.

We stopped over for a night at the beautiful McLarty Farm with gorgeous sunset view, and was warmly greeted by our hosts, Ken & Sue. We had a restful night, parked on a large level grassy ground by the barn. Thanks again, Sue & Ken for your kind hospitality.

The hosts were quick to reply to our last minute request and really helped us out of a jam. They were so nice and helped us park in the dark. The farm is beautiful and we had a quiet night of sleep after a long day. Thank you!!
