Full RV hookups

Electrical, water, and sewage hookups are available at all sites.

ATTENTION: There is no gate to this property. The road department put a sign up that makes our neighbors road look like it should be Crawfordsville Dr. NO GATE If you see a gate you are at the wrong driveway. Again NO GATE 5 Acers of woods, 1 Acer of field/grassland, and one are on the hill with gravel for up RV's. Property is only 0.35 miles from Calapooia river access (local secret spot). 1 mile to McKercher Park and additional river access. General store 0.75 miles away. Next to the historic Crawfordsville Covered Bridge. 8 miles from Brownsville, this town has been featured in multiple movies. 13.8 miles from Foster lake. At the bottom of the property there is a tree house, fire pit, and large grass field that could accommodate 20+ tents. Upper area is a rock parking area with RV hook ups. gas firepit, gas BBQ, and picknic table. I only rent to one group at a time. Rarely camping there when campers are there but father is on site (the grey house) to assist if needed.5 acres of woods and grasslands by the Calapooia river. Local store is 0.5 miles. Located near the historic Crawfordsville covered bridge. 0.25 miles to river access and 1 mile from McKercher Park with river access. 14 miles to Foster lake. Right down the road from Shotgun Creek OHV park. Enjoy the peace and quiet of this location but close enough to enjoy the areas attractions. Have one RV site with full hook ups but several sites for tent camping as well. No toilets, we ask you bring a camp toilet. Do not turn left down the dirt road off of Hwy 228 the road before the covered bridge is a farm. Crawfordsville drive is a paved road and you turn left off of Crawfordsville road at the 3 mail boxes into our driveway. You then go straight in and up the hill. GPS is often wrong, you should not see any pigs pins on our road. If you see pigs you will have to back all the way out of a very long driveway.

Great host. Came to greet us and let us be! Set up was a bit different than I imagined but worked very well for our needs

Big open spot, great for big group

7 m travel trailer · With pets

Fairly easy to find, some in my group found it more difficult. Nice big open space with plenty of room for cars and tents. Host was pleasant and allowed us to have privacy as well. Would definitely recommend for large groups. The playhouse and zip line were a hit for the youngster with us! All around a nice and relatively quiet spot (aside from some barking dogs in the hills). RIP to little Jack-Jack as well

3 Nights At Shearer Camping

5 m pop-up camper · With pets

We stayed at the Shearer camping site for 3 nights in July this year. There are a lot of great things to love about this place - first and foremost I wanted to shout out James for being a super great host. They answered our phone call at 10pm the night we got in to help us get situated and then also gave us their 50 -> 30 Amp converter to use all week since we didn't have one. The place itself is pretty private, with just a few animals and young kids that can be heard during the day. There are several hikes to enjoy nearby and the place is 1 hour from the Blue Hole. Would recommend to anyone, and especially if you have several RVs that are joining for the trip as the actual gravel lot you stay in is huge.

Tent · With kids

This is a great spot, the kids loved the zip line and treehouse, very close to an awesome water hole too so we spent a good majority of the day hanging out in the river. The camp was very open and had beautiful views of the sunset.

The site needs more pictures that are updated. It was nowhere near what we expected. Sites should be cleaned and prepared when people are to be expected as well. I won't bash the host on here because he made it right by us, but if you are expecting to have a memorable camping experience you may want to look elsewhere.
