'Royal Heart Hill' is at the very end of a Dead-End road, which means no sound or light pollution from passing cars or nearby residences. Surrounded by BLM and Timber properties, while being 6 miles from downtown Cottage Grove and 30 miles from downtown Eugene.
All guests have access to the outdoor shower, which is located by the green Dome. Please use biodegradable soap in the shower! Potable water spigots are located by the carport and at the top of the steps leading down to our platform site. Each site has its own composting toilet, fire-pit and electrical outlet.
Nearby access to: two lakes for swimming and fishing, waterfalls and cliff-jumping, hiking and biking trails, dining, wineries, breweries, shopping and more. I am happy to offer suggestions and share what I know- please ask!
UPDATE: The timber acreage that borders our property- to the west and north of Overholser Road- was harvested winter 2024.
The property consists of Oak savanna, mixed conifer woodland, camas meadow, undulating hills and a SMALL pond (home to many rough-skinned newts- no swimming or fishing). At our domestead we practice permaculture, native habitat restoration and regenerative forestry.
Poison oak is present on the property! I have done my best to clear it from camping areas and trails. Tecnu is provided in the outdoor shower.
There is a mile long loop that goes around the whole property, which we keep mowed and accessible. Hipcampers are encouraged to use the loop to explore the property. To access- walk south/downhill toward the pond signs and follow the mowed path through the meadow and back up toward the road, which will take you back to your campsite. I have included a screenshot of the loop as recorded by my Strava app, which is in the property photos.
The property hosts a geodesic play-dome and slack-line (during the dry months) up by the green dome/outdoor shower. Guests may play on these at their own risk- the closest hospital is 7 miles away.
*Please note- if you do not respect our camp rules your visit will be flagged, hipcamp will be notified and you will be asked to pay 25% of your booking fee for cleanup costs.*
Carly's campsite offers a tranquil escape, surrounded by nature with plenty of amenities to enhance your stay. Guests appreciate the large fire pit, clean facilities, and the serene environment perfect for relaxation. The outdoor shower and composting toilet are noted for their cleanliness and practicality. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, some campers mentioned proximity to other sites and presence of poison oak as areas for improvement.
We had a wonderful time tent camping here! It was a very private and serene space, with access to some creature comforts like a warm shower. There was a permanent awning installed at the site which we set our tent up under, but you could put your tent elsewhere.
Awesome site! Felt totally safe and it was such beautiful surroundings. We will definitely keep this spot in mind next time we're in the area. Word of warning that it is a little difficult to find in the dark and hard to turn around, so go slower and look for the signage more closely than you may think you need to.
Carly is super nice and I really enjoyed the time I got to spend at her spot. I got the solitude I was looking for without having to go very far. Carly keeps things well maintained & I really appreciate her dedication to the environment.
This is a great little spot for a getaway! No frills, but none were needed!❤️❤️❤️
Nicely set up, private camp in trees, very quiet. Nice and dark. Carly was quick to communicate and reply. It is a small circle turnaround, a little tight for our 22ft campervan but definitely doable. We appreciate the new rock layer on the roadbed.
We had a wonderful stay on your property last night! It was beautiful, quiet and peaceful. Plenty of firewood. Thank you so much for everything.
