WiFi, microwave, and mini fridge are available in our guest house along with 3/4 bath. There is also a portapotty available. This is our family retreat. Very calming and relaxing.

RV / tent camp
Jill was very welcoming and greeted us right when we arrived. Gave us a quick tour, showed off a few of her paintings of the area that she just hung up, and left us to go set up. You can really tell how much she loves the area and her camp. Nice bathroom, quiet and easy to find.

Amazing site even more amazing host
We decided to try hip camping because we can never get a spot in the parks. Deception pass area is our favorite and we will skip the park for this hip camp from now on!! The sites were clean and had chairs, fire pits, picnic tables. And water and electric. There was a tiny house with fridge microwave and shower. There were other sites and people in them but with only 4 sites it was much quieter than the parks. Ample parking for our large truck too. The hosts Jill and John were so helpful and fun. We enjoyed getting to know them and hear about their plans to keep improving the camp. Thank you both for creating the best camping experiences have had. Can’t wait to come back.

Site B
It was raining hard the whole time so take this with a grain of salt…Site B is right next to the road so it’s a bit loud. The tent pad is sand which is very messy and unpleasant. The bathroom is super tiny and crammed and unfinished. I think this is a wonderful campsite if it was priced much lower. For the price we paid I was expecting it to be a little nicer.

Monkey hill getaway!
Jill was an amazing host! The guest house she provides is above and beyond! A tiny house with bathroom, shower, and small living area with fridge and micro. Their land is beautifully forested and close to deception pass. Thank you!
