The campsite Orchard Falls was very nice and secluded there is a river that runs right near the site and the waterfall will literally put you to sleep with how peaceful it sounds. Directions to the property were very easy to get to and the owner was very nice and responsive. As long as you respect their property they'll respect you and you can have all the peace and quiet you want. There is an outhouse available if you need. They have a very nice pup that showed up to our campsite in the morning while we were making breakfast we gave him a few sausages and he hung around with us for a little while! 😁 He even walked us out when we left! \nWill come back! \n"

Friendly helpful host, Logan and Gear will make you very welcome and share their local knowledge. Menard has a public pool open in summer and Menard Station offers cheap ice, water and coffee for a donation. A great place to unwind."
