Had a really pleasant stay at Uncle Joe Retreat and overall, I had a great experience here. The place is clean and well maintained, and most of the infrastructure and facilities still feel quite new. There are friendly staff members checking around the camping area from time to time, which made the place feel safe and comfortable, especially for families. One of the highlights for me is the river right beside the campsite. It’s just a short walk away and the water area is quite suitable for kids to enjoy, making it a nice addition for a family camping trip. There’s also a shared kitchen available, which is very convenient if you prefer to cook and prepare meals in one designated area. I rented one of the air-conditioned cabins, and it was quite comfortable for a relaxing stay. The only thing missing for me was a TV, but honestly, if your purpose is to disconnect and enjoy nature, that’s not really a big issue. One small area that could be improved is the main entrance. It was a little confusing to find, so adding a clear and visible signboard would definitely make it easier for first-time visitors. Overall, I would highly recommend Uncle Joe Retreat for anyone looking for a camping experience, a relaxing getaway, or a short family trip surrounded by nature. Definitely a place I would consider coming back to in the future, Insya-Allah

Had an awesome 1 nite stayover to be a urban caveman and this was one of the best campsites in malaysia I have been. Very well kept, very clean, owner vwry friendly, caretaker take care of the place and guests, and all amenities as expected plus wifi even if u miss connecting to the real world vs nature. River is just a step away from the campsite , perfect for chilling and even a bit of fishing if u fancy but please dont litter and use lures if u can. There ate definitely aome fish there. The ride if u biker ir drive in is very nice from the famous klawang curves and not far from seremban after passing temiang. Highly recommend this place and will eant to come back when I get the time for unplugged nature healing again. Thank you Uncle Jo and staff.

Despite the rain, me and my friends had a good time cos the family that owns the place were warm and friendly. They provide us with good hospitality due to our wet tent and free bfast. Highly recommended campsite.

I had a good stay at Uncle JO Retreat in November 2025. Booking via the Escabee app was seamless and hassle-free. The campsite is nestled in a private orchard, offering a calm and serene atmosphere. Safety is a priority here; the site is fully fenced with gated entry. The facilities are top-notch. My spot (Camping Base No. 4) was a spacious 20ft x 20ft sand plot with its own washing sink, BBQ pit, and dedicated plug points. The bathrooms are clean, spacious, and include water heaters and soap. I also loved the generous 7 AM check-in and 5 PM check-out times. The COs are incredibly friendly, and on-site parking makes loading/unloading easy. While the river is shallow with a fast current, it was a bit muddy with a slight unpleasant scent. Overall, excellent for service and serenity 🏕
