Learn more about this land: Campsites are gravel parking with park-like lawn, well kept, and surrounded by a small picnicking area with extra parking, porta potty, garbage receptical, BBQs, tables and chairs on sprawling grassy lawns shaded with 100 year old large trees. Perfect for a large group. We have a big tree swing and an adult size teeter totter for you to enjoy. There is a horseshoe area. The camping sites are back in only, so if you have trouble backing in, I am happy to help. Each spot has a fire pit with first firewood supplied, (additional be purchased) and a picnic table. Surrounding area is sagebrush, 2 miles from Wallowa National Forest with miles and miles of wilderness trails, lakes and Mountain fishing, ATVs, hiking, biking. You can ride your ATVs right from the camp. There is huckleberry and mushroom picking in early summer and late spring. Local wildlife consists of deer, elk, eagles and owls, pheasants, quail, wild turkeys, all kinds of birds, (even an occasional farm chicken may wander by) and coyotes and frogs calling at night. My friendly labs like to come say hi. Campsites are for tents or RVs. Our electric is shared among the campsites. Our water is from a wonderful deep cold well that’s piped to a shared outlet in the middle of the RV camp. Bring a hose to hook up, we have one if you need one. Guest Wi-Fi if you’re close to the store. Cell service is limited. I do allow generators if you are not sharing the park with anyone else. If you’re the only ones, no quiet time, if others are camping, quiet time is from 10:00 pm - 7:00 am. Site 1: largest fire pit, close to the power hook up, the most shady spot but still sunny, closest to the park. Site 2: A bit of shade, most of the day in sun. Closest to water hook up. Site 3: A Sunny site, a little late afternoon shade. A little more privacy as it’s the last spot. Farthest stretch for water and power, but I provide an extension power cord to it. Our little store has items you may need if you run out or forget something. We also sell regular gas.

Sunny Site 3
Loved the peaceful stopover…camp was shared with a few dozen California quail in camp that night, and an equal number of red-winged blackbirds in the rushes by the pond the next morning. Pure bliss!

Sunny Site 3
Spot was okay.
Overall, was an okay spot. Spots were very close together and thankfully there was no one else there. No shade at all in Sunny Spot 3. I think the photos could be more transparent to show how close to road the sites are and the overall layout.

Glamping Yurt Tent with power
Peaceful Oasis
The yurt was very comfortable! We sat in the chairs and read in the evening, it was very peaceful. It was nice to have the horses, deer, and ducks around. A lovely overnight stop.

Lori was super friendly and greeted us as soon as we arrived and she gave us a quick tour of the land. The tent was super cute and the set up in general was very nice. We loved the string lights over the picnic tables to hang out at. Lots of friendly animals in the area - ducks, deer, chickens, cats, and dogs! Loved that she had a store where you could purchase drinks, snacks, and other amenities that you may need.
