The Gloaming

Perfect place

Peaceful, clean, quiet, beautiful. Great place to pitch our tents overlooking a gorgeous hay field. and watch hay being baled and picked up. Pretty sunset; heard crickets, frogs, coyotes, owls. Saw the clear night sky, and a shooting star with a giant tail. Gorgeous sunrise over valley fog with a crescent moon. Cj's friend noticed my bike's battery was dead when we were trying to push start it. He brought his truck and cables over and got us going! Thank you. I will return.

Rainier

This was our second time staying at CJ’s and we loved it as much as the first time! The view is incredible and we loved the wide open spaces for our kids to run wild. The location is perfect for visiting Mt Rainier and Windy Ridge at Mt St Helen’s. We will definitely be back! We look forward to CJ getting showers installed on the property so we can plan a long stay sometime!
