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.

Dean’s ‘little bit of paradise’ is just that. We enjoyed a quiet, peaceful weekend away from the city and learned how to make the perfect cup of coffee. Dean’s passion for coffee (and wine, mead & beer) is quite contagious. Will have to time our return just right to try his Port!

My quick trip!

I absolutely loved Honeysuckle but my pup unfortunately was not loving the trip. Oreo is in the last stages of renal failure so my idea of some alone time with her were just not what she needed. We came home after the first night and snuggled in front of the fire. I will absolutely be back again as soon as I can. A lovely and wonderful place ❤️

Great bang for your buck...

I came out here to get acclimated to a new Toy Hauler purchase I made before I hit the road and head down south. Dean is a great host and his 10+ acres is picture perfect. Well worth the money spent!

We stayed in our 20ft camper trailer at Dean’s place and it was perfect. Nice spot in the trees, with a fire pit and power. Felt quiet and peaceful. Dean was a fabulous host, we enjoyed roasting and tasting coffee, walking round the property and sampling some mead, and he even lent us a converter for our trailer. Would definitely recommend.

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