🌿 Welcome to Big Rock Ranch In 2016, Nathaniel and Raina Potter purchased this 30-acre ranch and aptly named it Big Rock Ranch. The land’s modest ranch layout is contrasted by the wildly grand views of a towering rock outcropping jutting from Coyote Butte, a striking formation that continues to inspire awe in both its owners and visitors. Today, Big Rock Ranch is home to pasture-raised cattle, chickens, goats, horses, a bursting garden, and a commitment to regenerative ranching practices. Your stay at Big Rock Ranch is more than just a getaway—it’s an offering to our family and ranch, helping us continue our work in sustainable agriculture and land stewardship. ⛺ Stay in the Rustic Canvas Tent Nestled under junipers and sagebrush, the 12x14 ft canvas tent offers a comfortable yet immersive farm experience. Enjoy stunning views of the Cascade Mountains, high desert landscape, and irrigated pastures. The tent features: 🔥 Outdoor kitchen with a BBQ, propane burners, and potable water. 🛏️ Queen bed (bedding available as an extra) + two cots for additional guests. 🚻 Shared composting outhouse with the tiny house listing. 🔌 One outlet for small device charging. Guests can also collect farm-fresh eggs, purchase pasture-raised meats, and explore regenerative ranching practices on a guided tour. 🏡 Stay in the Cozy Tiny House For a more intimate and self-contained farm stay, our charming 8x16 ft tiny house offers: 🏡 Fully equipped indoor kitchen with a propane stove, toaster oven, and fridge/freezer. 🛏️ Lofted queen bed. 🚿 Hot water shower and access to the shared composting outhouse. 🍽️ Indoor and outdoor dining with breathtaking views of the ranch. 🌄 Experience Big Rock Ranch Guests at both listings are invited to explore the land, interact with our animals, and experience the rhythms of regenerative farming.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
Nestled near the breathtaking Smith Rock State Park, this charming tiny house offers a cozy retreat with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. Guests consistently praise Raina and her family for their warm hospitality and the opportunity to interact with the friendly farm animals, including goats and chickens. The tiny house is well-equipped, featuring a functional kitchen and an indoor shower, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a peaceful escape. However, some visitors noted occasional noise from nearby roads and flights, which might be a consideration for light sleepers.

The pictures really don’t do this place justice. The scenery of the ranch and the tiny house itself are just stunning. It is packed with little helpful amenities like cookware, the indoor shower was awesome after a couple weeks of camping, and I was happily surprised to find outlets even upstairs by the loft bed. Raina and her family were also so friendly and kind! Great communication, great stay, overall can’t wait to come back. (Also if you need to kill a little time in Terrebonne there’s an Alpaca ranch you can visit very close by!)
