~~~~~****{{*}}****~~~~ WILD AZALEA ECO-CAMP ~~~~****{{*}}****~~~~~ Spend much needed quality time with nature and unwind at Wild Azalea Eco-Camp. Our beautiful 5 acre Permaculture homestead at the gateway to the Rogue River, features everything required to get away, relax—unplug; yet near enough to plenty of outdoor activities, river adventures, and the quaint small town bustle of downtown Grants Pass. There’s a little bit of everything to please camping enthusiasts: RV/van/car or SUV spots, or cozy tent sites for individuals, small families and even group reunions.   Or, after it's completed at some point soon, you could try our newly renovated tiny cabin if you're in a glamping mood! ~~~~ Wild Azalea Camp is part of a 16 yr. old organic homestead project and “food forest” with a broad array of permanent food bearing plants using regenerative agriculture – no-till organic gardening methods with native plants, medicinal plants, water capturing features. Retreats/workshops, small gatherings and public classes are in the plans, which Hipcamp guests are welcome to join. Dreaming up your own small group gathering/event, multi-family outing, or something similar? Contact us to inquire about the possibility of holding it in the lovely natural surroundings of Wild-Azalea! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BRYON'S ART One of the things you will notice when you look around the Camp - is ART - art on banners, window stickers and magnets. Barbara's son Bryon was the creator of this art, art that you may have seen at festivals or in stores or decorating yoga and spiritual Centers around the country. Bryon shared this land with his mom until his death at the end of 2022, and she celebrates his life by sharing a small taste of his art with you. _____________________________________________________________________________ Even if you aren’t lucky enough to spot a secret gnome or fairy house on a trail, we’ve worked hard to make sure you’ll have good memories of your stay here. Stop by and visit! ***** WHY OUR FLOCK OF CHICKENS STAY HERE LONG-TERM: ***** - 5 lush acres of woodland trails – mosses, mushrooms, wildflowers, deer, turkeys, song birds and occasional sightings of Jackrabbits!  - Multiple seasonal ponds and 4 seasonal creeks (they have water in the late fall/winter/early spring). - Occasional public workshops and retreats also open to HIpcampers. ______________________________________________________________________________ **** WHY OUR RESIDENT GNOMES LOVE THIS LOCATION: **** - Water and Electric Hookups at 3 RV/Van sites. Tent sites in the woodland. You're welcome to set up tents in the Hazelnut and Wild Lilac sites also. - Small cabin with kitchenette, outdoor shower and compost toilet. (coming soon) - 10 min drive to mid-sized Grants Pass- with its lovely shops, theater, interesting restaurants/cafes (we have Dominican Caribbean, an all American vintage ice cream bar, and sushi :-) ) county parks, playgrounds, a skateboard park, and other amenities. - 10 min. to wilderness, Rogue River and rafting, hiking, fishing, kayaking, birding, mushrooming - Easy 10 min trip to I-5 Freeway. 20-45min drives to Ashland (for the Shakespeare fest!) and lovely towns of Jacksonville, Rogue River, and the city of Medford. -  3 min. (2 miles) drive or bike ride to the village of Merlin with rafting companies, grocery, gas and several restaurants. We hope to see you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wild Lilac RV/Van Site
Lovely Stay
I had a lovely stay! The space was well thought out and I enjoyed the trails and additional touches as well. Vanessa was extremely welcoming and accommodating for our two vehicles (van & camper). We saw a family of deer walking through the property one evening too which was nice to see. Would definitely recommend!

This place was very nice, Vanessa and Barbara have put a great deal of effort into creating a beautiful and comfortable campsite on their property. Be sure to ask about their propane fire pit!

Hazelnut Campsite
Cute campsite
What a lovely campsite. The caretakers couldn’t have been more attentive. The place shows the love that went into it. The sawdust composting toilets were spotless and there were so many nice touches.

We unfortunately missed our stay at this site due to a family emergency but the host was super accommodating and had great communication leading up to our trip. They were also very understanding of our last minute cancellation. I have no doubt they have a great site as they put a lot of thought and care into making guests feel welcome/comfortable. We definitely plan to stay here in the future!
