Find an escape on this small blueberry farm in Sherwood Oregon. Campsite is bordered by a small year-round Creek, there is lots of shade and privacy. We also are located for easy access to local summer attractions, wineries, restaurants etc. Campfires and book reading have been very popular here at Bear Hollow! Check in before sunset for your best experience! (Late arrivals can be requested for an additional fee.) Our campsite has a toilet, potable water, picnic table, and allows campfires (outside of a burn ban). We are pet friendly. You can purchase firewood from us as well. Our guests love staying here: " Bear Hollow is a special place. Valerie and George are sweet and gracious hosts. It is a privilege for the rest of us that they offer this heavenly bit of planet earth for the rest of us to enjoy. Clearly a labor of love, the grounds are well maintained and spectacular. I honestly can not put in words how much I enjoyed my time here. I am already looking forward to my next stay. Many sincere thanks to the Bears for offering up this magnificent hollow for Hipcampers to experience in all of its splendor."Find an escape on this small blueberry farm in Sherwood Oregon.

Bear Hollow offers a serene escape just outside of Portland, where campers can enjoy the beauty of nature with the convenience of nearby amenities. It's a popular spot for families and groups, providing plenty of space for exploration and relaxation, with highlights like a charming creek, a collection of mature blueberry bushes, and a scenic old train truss. The thoughtful touches of the hosts, such as a well-maintained composting toilet and the availability of fresh fruit, enhance the camping experience. While the proximity to a highway means some traffic noise, the overall peacefulness and privacy make it a worthwhile destination.

Wonderful Stay at Bear Hollow

Tent · With pets

What a little gem just outside PDX! Gorgeous and lovingly developed beautiful and scenic spot. Next to a creek, with a lower and upper area and an old train truss! Abundant wildlife and a grove of mature blueberry bushes, as well as several fruit trees. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. Would recommend!

This place is special! Valerie was so kind and helpful while leaving us lots of privacy for our camping weekend. Ideal for groups looking to have a quick getaway from Portland or elsewhere, the amenities at Bear Hollow are hard to beat - a beautiful composting toilet, a tent area with lots of shade and nice grass, even a few blueberries still for the picking in September. We’ll be back!

Humans and pups all had a wonderful time at Valerie’s place. From the warm welcome by Valerie and a gorgeous blue heron to the peaceful sunset over the horizon, it was fabulous. We appreciated the thoughtful design of the property and the cleanliness of “Pooh Corner’s” composting toilet. It’s a private little oasis that’s close to home and we will definitely be back.

Perfect family camping site

Tent · With kids

This was our second time camping at this site and it was better than the first time. Peaceful surround, fresh blueberries for picking, and excellent host. Couldn’t ask for anything else. So much room to roam and play, family friendly, perfect site for star gazing. We loved it!
