2 nights at Quiet wooded park, near beaches.

Ron & Jackie were very helpful and friendly. They even offered for us to take a better spot (#12). The campground was clean and well-maintained. It is about a mile from the beach so not too breezy. We really enjoyed our entire visit.

Weekend Trip to Hurlys Hideaway

Mark was very responsive, helpful and kind! The area just had a big rain and he was really on top of making sure my experience was still great with the mud. The property is stunning and he has carved out the spaces to have privacy. He also gave me great tips on things to do in the area. As a girl traveling alone, I felt very safe staying on this property and was grateful for the peace of mind.

My family of four (including a six year old) had a good time. There are sheep in a meadow and we enjoyed being stared at placidly by them. The composting toilet was delightfully clean and tidy. Though it was a cold and rainy night, the fireplace kept us warm and the yurt stayed dry. The yurt was very spacious. The things on the inside were very cool: a zodiac poster and chimes with a mallet. A very peaceful spot. And new gravel made the driveway easy to back out of! Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Elkenmist

We had a fantastic time! My partner and I stayed in the yurt to celebrate my birthday. The yurt was clean and private. The wood stove kept us super toasty and the mattress was comfortable. The property has a handy outdoor kitchen and dining area. We also took the farm tour and got to hang out with the baby sheep and rabbits. We also made use of the sauna which was the perfect contrast to the rainy spring weather. The property is stunning and incredibly serene, there are tons more f trails to explore. We left feeling rejuvenated. Den and Max were both incredibly friendly and made our stay easy and enjoyable. We can’t wait to go back!!

Weekend Trip to Elkenmist

My partner and I had an amazing time here for her birthday, I think our biggest regret was not having more time to explore more of the trails around the property. The yurt was very well built, stayed warm with the stove, and was very large for two people and two dogs. The single sleeping mat was surprisingly comfortable and the outhouse was only a short walk from the front doors. Den was extremely kind and helpful in making sure the stay was successful and fun, and the farm tour with Max was great as we were able to meet a lot of baby sheep and rabbits, and we were met with answers to all of our many questions. The location is far enough out that you hear and see a lot of nature, but centrally located enough that we were able to explore both the Washington and Oregon coast easily! The shared outdoor kitchen offers enough amenities that you shouldn’t have any problems making food, the wood fired sauna was an excellent addition, and the outdoor shower is just a few steps away from the sauna and kitchen making everything fairly central. We had such a fun time and we look forward to our next stay!

Weekend Trip to Favorite Creek Campground

The pictures didn't do this place justice! We had an incredible weekend staying in the lodge. It was so well-insulated that the small heater did its job well. I love that all the campsites had a firepit, table, and were near water. You can hear the creek flowing from the whole property. Tyler was a great communicater, too. Plan to be back!

Weekend Trip to Columbia River Camping

Quiet spot near the river. Enjoyed watching the big boats go by and listening to the seals as they popped up. We settled down by the water for the evening - then moved to the higher spot to sleep to avoid high tides.

Weekend Trip to Peace on Earth

Peace on Earth offered the relaxation I craved on my solo weekend getaway. Brian was a friendly host who texted to check in when I was getting close to arriving; he was waiting for me when I arrived. He carefully showed me around the cabin he'd built and made sure I felt at home. It's clear that a lot of care went into crafting this beautiful wood cabin. The bed alcove, surrounded by windows with views of trees, offered an ideal place to journal or read. I wish I could have stayed longer! Thank you!

Weekend Trip to Elk Moon Yurt

It had everything you need and super cute! It was easy to find and clear instructions for everything. There were a couple battery lanterns, but I wish there had been a little more light available. Maybe bring your own lantern if you also want more light at night!

1 night at Tillamook - Trask River

Great stay ,the long horns was a good touch. Nice to see fisherman on the river in the morning. One of them got their line stuck in the tree, that was pretty funny.

Cute little spot very remote. Conquer the incinerating toilet... great system! Burn baby burn :)

1 night at Tillamook - Trask River

This place is fantastic!! I booked it last second and wow what a wonderful surprise how nice it was. We brought our travel trailer and this please was easy to find, easy to park and beautiful. We were the only ones there which was special but also their land is beautiful. The longhorns roaming around are awesome. They are even playful. It was fun watching them each day. This is right on a stream/ river and it’s peaceful. They have an area to fish which was fun and they have an outhouse with a hot shower! What more could you want. The owners were friendly and even cam and brought us some firewood. We would def book again. There is a cabin you can book and we would be interested in that as well. This camping area is big enough for a big group too. 5 stars!

Weekend Trip to Peace on Earth

This was a perfect change of pace from city life! Great balance of amenities in the cabin versus solitude of the woods. The host was super nice and made sure I knew how everything worked before leaving me alone for the weekend. My dog also had such a happy time running around the property and relaxing in the cabin. I highly recommend this spot!

Weekend Trip to Peace on Earth

The space was quiet and cozy, I was really happy with the dishes and utensils provided. I was able to make posole from scratch on just the provided dishes (it was delicious!). The shower was GREAT, the incinerating toilet was a fun novelty, super simple to use. I was nervous about it but it was one of the better “off grid” bathroom solutions I’ve used. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I just felt totally at peace not to mention the privacy provided by the hosts was just really much needed. We will be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Sunny 🌞 Seaside 🌊 RV Space

Great urban space in Seaside with very welcoming and generous hosts! They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Clean spot, hookups in great condition. We’ll definitely be back and look forward to it!

2 nights at Quiet wooded park, near beaches.

We spent 2 nights at this small rv park. Wonderful hike (9 mi round trip) from our site to North Head Lighthouse. Washroom facilities are basic and clean with a nice stock of toiletries in case you’ve forgotten anything. Friendly and helpful managers on-site. Definitely recommended!

Weekend Trip to Hurlys Hideaway

Good land, spacious. Views. Property owner is good people. Definitely on our list of ones to possibly come back to.

Cameras are there to monitor the site after hipcampers have left and will not be on while campers have rented the space.
