Welcome to Dean’s! Eight minutes off Highway 18 lies 11 acres of mostly undeveloped land. Dean's is a beautiful, bare-bones place to rest between national parks, before or after crossing the US / CA border, or to set up base camp to explore Seattle / Tacoma. Our main driveway is CLOSED this year for repairs. We have alternate arrival instructions for you after you book. These instructions add about 7 minutes (totaling 8 minutes) from Highway 18 to the campground. Our location is convenient. We are just minutes from Auburn city limits. Road noise, planes, Pacific Raceways, and freight trains are audible here even if muffled by the trees. Our distant neighbors occasionally indulge in target shooting. This doesn't last long. Please call us immediately with any concerns. We have a brand new neighborhood in construction on one of our property lines. Heavy machinery is in use around 8 am and usually finished by dinner time. In order to provide safety and peace, hosts live just outside the campground and closely manage happenings. All our sites have 2-4 persons occupancy in hopes of deterring parties. Our quiet hours are 8pm-8am so we can rest up for the next day’s adventures. We ban fires during the peak of summer to avoid the issue of wildfires entirely. Propane stoves are welcome. We do not have a check in cut-off time tho reservations do need to be made before midnight. We have zero tolerance for hateful, abusive, or discriminatory behavior toward people, belongings, and wildlife. With that being said, the 40+ year old trees and distance between the campsites provides space for you to bring and create your own vibes. Hosts should only approach you with safety or quiet hour concerns. They are available 24 / 7 for any questions or requests you may have. Feel free to reach out any time (our phone number can be found on Google).

Safe, serene, primitive camping
It was very, very quiet and beautiful the 5 nights I stayed here. With the main entry closed off, I kind of enjoyed the back way of entering through Washington National Estates. I also enjoyed the wildlife and would happily come back some day.

It was a private and quite large campground. Would recommend to stay again.

Very great site for a comfy and safe stay. The owner provided the details of everything so we easily got there and stayed with no problems. We marked this campground as our favorite and will be visiting again! The owner is very friendly! Restrooms: The restroom is extremely clean. I was expecting smells like the public restrooms but I was amazed how clean and odorless inside was. They also provide TPs soap and hand sanitizer inside!! Just bring your own light source since it's a remote one, which is not surprising at all. Very good experience! Picnic area: A fireplace is provided, which surprised us! And a cute dining table with 2 chairs! The environment is nice!
