Slow Boat Farm - Island Camping

Slow Boat Farm started as a 10-cow dairy in the 1930s. The modified farmhouse still stands and the base of the silo is now a fire ring. 

Wide open spaces, kayak launch, and small-scale farming form a unique culture at Slow Boat Farm. Camp on Puget Island, in a peaceful, pastoral setting with views of the hills and cliffs on both sides of the river. Fire ring is available year round regardless of fire bans.  A large grassy field offers ample space, and a private kayak launch is a short walk through a cottonwood forest.

You will enjoy a private camp spot with shade or open space, where we can accommodate multiple vehicles. 

Slow Boat Farm is a large meadow, five acres of grass and wide open spaces to view the gorge cliffs.  Camping is available May through September 30.

Waterfront Retreat and Event Venue

My Tiny Creekside Retreat is located in the hills above Longview, with easy access to Historic Downtown Longview, less than a half hour from the I-5 Freeway, and within 1.5 hours of Long Beach, Mt. St. Helens, and Portland Oregon. The Retreat includes accommodations for overnighters and is available to host your small event. In addition to their private accommodations our guests enjoy our large covered fire pit and picnic area, creek side beach, yoga decks, and an EV charger. A perfect escape from the hustle of life!

Relatives’ Land

Relatives' Land is an opportunity for Delphine, who currently owns the property and all of us visiting, to enjoy the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest and learn about the amazing bio-diversity of the area. On the land you will find some flat, prairie land that are used for gardening and chicken raising. There is also an old orchard with 15 plus apple and pear trees. Campers are welcome to harvest apples and pears in the fall when they are in season! Half of the land, 2.5 acres is a forest of pine and alder trees which hosts incredible wild life: a family of fox, Northwest bats, Northern Pygmy owls, Spotted owls, Northern flickers, Pileated woodpeckers, red ants, deer, elk, rabbits, snakes, mice and million more insects and birds. The land also has an incredible variety of mushrooms, mostly non-edible though, and ferns and mosses.

Tree tent and hammock. The tree tent sleeps three to four people. Another three to four people can sleep on the hammock underneath. 

Tree Tent with fly-sheet on, along with picnic table, and out-house in the background.

Cabin's covered porch overlooking the river. Please don't lean on the porch railing....it's tired.


Snail's Pace Camp


The property has served as a "family get-away" and restorative spot for years and continues to be such since our acquisition a few years ago.

This campsite is quite secluded and peaceful. Please observe the rules that are intended to keep it pristine. 

There are references to the steep driveway in the reviews. In winter of 2024 a modification was made to the driveway making it accessible to 2wd vehicles.

A locked cabin (work in progress) has a large covered porch overlooking the Coweeman River that is available for campers, complete with chairs and picnic table. The porch railing will not withstand leaning against or using as a footrest; thanks.

The camp has a pit toilet and we are asking guests to extend its life by only putting poop and pee in it. PLEASE BURN YOUR TOILET PAPER OR PLACE IT IN THE TRASH.

There is a fire ring and a tub of firewood available (and refillable) on site for $10. Payment is through Venmo when you return to the electronic world. If you bring your own wood keep maximum length to 20" to keep fire/ash within ring. Wood gathering is not permitted. Please respect the trees; no carving, supporting hammocks, nails. There is a picnic table and chairs at the fire ring.

Glass (bottles or glasses) are not permitted anywhere close to the riverbank as the risk of broken glass on bare feet is not worth the risk. Human flesh and fishhooks do not play well together, so no fishing is allowed.

Firearms and shooting are not allowed at our campsite, nor are fireworks.

The country road, which is very lightly travelled, follows the river and is a wonderful 'trail' for bikes and hikes. Weyerhaeuser Timber Company owns the the vast tree farm in this area and requires a permit to access their land but we hike there (accessed just across the road) frequently and never see anyone.

The river runs clean and pristine. Though not deep enough for swimming, it provides for a refreshing dip on a hot summer's day. It can be used for washing and bathing, and could be filtered/treated for drinking. A garden hydrant provides river water to the camping area, but use the 200 gallon source sparingly as I only fill it occasionally. There is no other water source on the lot. The next driveway upstream is also available to explore as it is a campsite under construction. There is a deeper swimming hole at this site that you are welcome to use. An inner tube will float you back down to the cabin spot.

Moving rocks in the river (building dams, structures) interferes with the nature processes of waterways and fish spawning/habitat and should be avoided.

Caution: The river rocks are very slick (think 'ice'). Use care when walking on wet rocks! Flotation vests are strongly recommended for kiddos.

Feel free to explore the property but please be aware the stinging nettles and other various pokey vegetation exist in the woods.

The setting is most private, the river lovely. This setting is wonderful for a quiet family getaway in the woods; it is not 'party' appropriate.

Non digging, well mannered dogs are welcome (maximum 2) as long as their responsible owners clean up after them.

Don't forget to bring drinking water, toilet paper (none is provided), fire starter (though our firewood is seasoned, dry and easy to ignite), headlamp, roasting sticks for them s'mores, water shoes and tromping shoes. The closest store for supplies is 11 miles (20ish minutes) down Rose Valley Road, a small country market with basics, and fuel.

Disregard Hipcamp's statement that the camp is close to Seaquest State Park and Paradise Point State Park........they are both about 45 minutes away.

The site fee is $60 with a two night minimum and covers up to 4 people. Additional guests are $10 per night, maximum 8 campers total.

Cell coverage is nonexistent/weak, depending on carrier. The de-timbered property across Rose Valley Rd can provide some elevation that might enable reception. Please plan accordingly and enjoy your time away from digital distractions.

Enjoy!

Picnic table. tent spot, and firepit overlook the river.

Floatation vests are a must for the kiddos for waterside activities!

From the covered porch, looking upstream.

Lots of natural light at the outhouse. Bring your own TP and extend the outhouse life by putting it in the trash rather than in the pit. Thanks!


Enjoy strolling up the driveway for a walk along the road. It is very steep; when driving out, please keep your speed up until on the pavement.
