Welcome to our tranquil retreat on 15 acres of diverse landscapes at Elysian Retreat in Orting, WA. Our property offers a harmonious blend of open pasture, lush tree cover, and dense woods, providing the perfect backdrop for outdoor adventure. Access the Carbon River and Orting Foothills trail via our coded gate in the NW corner of our paddock. You'll enjoy a 5-minute walk or bike ride along a small, maintained path that opens up to a beautiful view of the Carbon River. (Map included in our Hipcamp images) As you explore our serene surroundings, you'll discover a peaceful small stream meandering through the property, offering a constant flow of natural beauty and wildlife. Watch for majestic elk, graceful deer, vibrant waterfowl, and elusive fish as they frequent the stream, creating a symphony of sights and sounds. Our friendly herd of five horses & four goats roam freely within the fenced area, adding to the enchanting atmosphere of our retreat. They're always eager to greet visitors and may even offer a helping hoof as you set up camp or simply relax under the shade of a tree. Whether you prefer to unwind with a good book beside the babbling stream, take a stroll through the woods, or simply soak in the serene ambiance of nature, our property offers endless opportunities for relaxation and rejuvenation. Parking is available within the securely locked pasture, ensuring easy access to your vehicle throughout your stay. In rare instances of excess rain, alternative parking arrangements will be made to ensure your safety and convenience. We have Portable Fire Pits that are free to use while staying with us and we try to supply firewood (please contact us before your stay to ensure we have stock). Additionally, we have 1 porta-potty located at the gate for camper use and a dumpster for trash. Escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature at our picturesque retreat. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the beauty of our land with you. 5 Min to Downtown Orting 40 Min to Rainier National Park 45 Min to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

Not for us but still 5 stars
5- bc the host was patient with my questions and super responsive and kind. The horses really are excellent employees and I felt honored when they hung out by us btw 12-2. Something about them standing right there made feel some sense of peace. It is everything it says it is- very accurate. I’m a noob and so I made some mistakes that negatively impacted my experience. That’s on me. And my dog was great with the horses and goats.. unless she was in the car, so when 5 of them approached at 1 am and stood still by us, she was growling and barking etc. so I apologize to everyone. It was more crowded than I thought. I could hear the highway and some kind of generator, maybe the rvs. Everyone kept to themselves and kept the noise down. Someone had 2 dogs off leash and while they were well behaved… I didn’t appreciate it. The ground was so uneven and I think that’s normal since it’s a pasture but it gave my car trouble. 2 engine lights came on once I got back on the road-tires and something I haven’t figured out yet but I think I scraped the undercarriage and maybe punctured something bc there are tire tracks where people have driven but there’s bushes and strong shrubs poking out everywhere. I didn’t have the clearance and I couldn’t see some of them well so… my fault.
