Welcome, to the Meadery, we are a working winery with several other interests to investigate as well. Come learn about making Mead. We have an annual cider press in late September or early October as well. Want to learn how to Roast your own coffee bean? Or maybe you are competitive and want to race 132 or 124 slot cars on a Carrera 124 Digital Track. There is also a nice walk in the woods, and if it is hot you can float down the Deschutes River that is very close by. Pitch your tent in a few areas you pick, there are Mountain Bike and Little kid ATV trails around the property as well. For more extensive ATV trails Capital Forest is about 30 minutes away. If you have a Weyerhaeuser permit for the area near me the gate is 2.5 miles away. There is a winery on site and an outside tasting area with a fire pit. Each camp site also has their own fire pits. Two bathrooms with showers. There are powered and non-powered RV sites. Water is available at the water station but not directly at the camp sites. We are pet friendly. We offer firewood for sale on site, camp fires permitted outside of a burn ban. We do not provide garbage service, we expect everyone to carry out what they bring in. Guests love staying here: "Dean's acreage is a dream! We stayed there in our motorhome and absolutely loved it. We have two dogs and they are picky about making friends but adored Deans dogs. They are the sweetest and make the camping even more enjoyable. Dean was kind enough to show us his Meadery and the property so we felt comfortable exploring and walking around. We would definitely recommend it for other campers whether you have an RV, tent, van, etc. For reference we comfortably parked our 31 ft motorhome and we were able to hookup to electricity (only available in one spot so inquire with dean!). There is a shower and toilet available for use in a separate building from his home in the backyard."Pitch your tent in a few areas you pick. There is a winery on site and a outside tasting area with a fire pit. Two bathrooms with showers. The RV area is out near the road in a level area near the Koi pond that has power. Additional RV location with power is also available.

I loved that we could have a campfire and see the stars! The coffee roasting experience was very educational and kept us all interested.

Very enjoyable experience. The quiet and peacefullness made it feel so much further away than it was. Dean is great AND we left with fresh coffee beans, wine and mead (well there wasn't any mead left)...Even my dog made a new friend. Thanks to Dean and Zoey.

Private sites, on-site flush toilets and showers. Near river and lakes. The coffee roasting and mead/wine tasting was an added bonus. Host is very knowledgeable and I learned a lot Host

Great campsite

A lovely place. You get that feeling of camping in the wilderness with some added amenities and a wonderful host. Dean was extremely friendly and accommodating to us and our kids, and we really enjoyed spending time with him.
