Do you know or have you hosted this user?
I am a retired Architectural Designer. Have been camping since I have known I was alive. From tent camping, backpacking, trailer, truck camping and motorhomes, I have spent most of my life camping. I am now a traveler, retired and with a truck camper. I love it because I can pull in anywhere a car can park, from downtown USA to any scenic vista without having to worry about a place to stop and or park.

Fine gentleman
We had the pleasure of hosting member, (Jeepjoke), on the 1 and 2 day of February 2017. We have found him to be very respectful and easy to talk to.
We would invite him anytime...If you come to Quebec Canada look us up. We have space available at our cottage by the lake and our house in Montreal..
THE GROVE
He deserves a good recommendation
We had a good time together....calm, casual, enjoyable. Just like we knew him already.
He makes boondock hosting a fun pleasure. ("Sail on", friend)

Terrific Guest
He is a welcome guest anytime. He is clean, respectful and considerate. Our introduction was followed by many interesting conversations. We hit it off so well that we shared a nice evening downtown and some time the next day at the farmers market.

Stress free
This was our first experience and it was great and stress free. Dennis and his wife made up feel welcome and were there to guide us into the spot. We came to Bristol to pick up relatives and this location turned out to be a mile from where we needed to be. They have a beautiful backyard view and fire pit area, unfortunately we were on a mission and didn’t get much relaxing time. Great place and great people.
