Just down the road from the historic Oregon Country Fair grounds, there is a moss covered forest with friendly folks welcoming you to stop off and rest. Nights are quiet with faint to no road noise or light pollution. The driveway and grounds are flat with safe gated parking space for cars/vans and small-med sized trailers, tents etc. It is our pleasure to offer you a safe space to camp with your friends and family. Learn more about this land: Mosswood is on 5 acres of mostly forested land, there's usually a project going (or three). We've recently finished building a barn workshop, a covered timber frame deck in the meadow, and a very unique woven tree net that you'll be sure to enjoy! No dogs living here, just one friendly cat, otherwise it's squirrels, birds, and the occasional wild turkey procession or coyote. There is a large garden, and when growing season is on, we may send you packing with some fresh greens or veggies! If you see us out and about, feel free to come say hello or ask questions. We love sharing good conversations and ideas about how to live well and stay excited about all things. Towns/Activities nearby: Veneta/Elmira are charming small rural towns with all the basics less than 10 min drive: Grocery Outlet, Bi-mart, Ace hardware, Auto parts, some decent restaurants. Fern Ridge Lake is 10 minutes down the road for walking trails, boating and paddling, plenty of other outdoor activities nearby. Eugene is 25 min, and the beautiful Oregon coast is 45 min drive if you want to smell the ocean air and visit Florence.

Lively spot!
Clay has a magical spot here. Quiet and well cared for. He has amazing sculptures and really a neat space! The 'services' are primitive but clean and Clay has a great recycling system in place.

Magical Mossy Forest Retreat
This little forest fairy haven is absolutely magical! I stayed in a campsite and was provided a tour of the grounds, vault toilet(very clean and stank-free), and all the fun activities around like the trampoline hammock! Clay was an excellent and accommodating host. I will absolutely be back ASAP!!

Clay was a very accommodating host, the camper was very cute and well stocked, the outdoor space was calm and peaceful and I felt very safe. The outdoor shower was amazing after a long day of adventuring. I would come again :) Thanks for a great stay, Clay!

It was a nice place but overall it was a very large area of more so forested land in a persons yard instead of campground but they provide utilities at least

The camper is very well maintained and clean, he even provided me fresh bedding! You can also drive a regular car to the site, theres wifi, and cell service. Unfortunately the camper did not have a way to lock from the inside, so if that is a concern be ware!

Very creepy, unkept camper
this place was creepy, the camper my wife and I wanted to stay in smelled like BO and was dirty. We were met by a strange person who was not the host’s name. We got in after dark and the site was fully pitch black. Not to mention we were being eavesdropped on while speaking amongst ourselves in the camper deciding if we wanted to stay or leave. The man appeared right next to the camper and asked if everything was alright. It was very creepy. We ended up leaving immediately to get a hotel. Don’t stay here. It’s even on a road called “ridiculous road”. Be careful out there people and read the signs in plane sight!
