Romantic Forest Hide-a-Way

2 sites ¡ Lodging40 acres ¡ White Salmon, WA
Largely constructed from materials lovingly and gently harvested on-site, the Yurt at Rivendell is a sanctuary of peace and serenity. A place for rejuvenation and inspiration. The yurt began as a rustic structure utilizing lumber from trees selectively harvested to protect the health of the forest. But, the more Roy worked on the Yurt the more it spoke to him letting him know how to proceed and what it should become -- resulting in this phenomenally peaceful and stress-free wilderness sanctuary where the sun, the moon and the stars wink at you through the gentle undulations of the 100-year-old Douglas Firs Trees or through the ambient ether of the adjoining meadows. Our property is located 1hr and 30 minutes from Mt Hood in Oregon. We are located in White Salmon, Washington. There are enough things to do in White Salmon, including hiking trails, biking trails, white water rafting, waterfalls, and paddling spots to keep you entertained for a weekend, week, or lifetime! NOTE: While we do accept Instant Bookings for both our Tree House and Yurt there may very rarely be a conflict with a booking received earlier from another site when the HipCamp calendar has not been updated to reflect that booking. In that case, we default to the earliest booking and work with the guest to see if there are other dates which will work.

The Pines at LaVines

10 sites ¡ RVs, Tents24 acres ¡ Goldendale, WA
I bought my land in 1999. Back then I was the only one living on Austin rd past the end of the county road. Austin rd was still a gravel road then and so was Hanging Rock rd. Learn more about this land: Pitch a tent, bring your RV or something in between. Hunting fishing hiking relaxing in the trees. You can stay here and explore the Columbia river gorge, Mt Adams or Mt Hood, or head to the Yakima valley. Lots of deer and turkeys and other forest animals. Walli sturgeon and salmon are just some of the fish you can catch in the Columbia river or the Klickitat river. Pick huckleberries on the side of Mt Adams. Listen to the wind blowing in the tree tops as you rest and nap in the sun or shade. Territorial views and just 6 miles to town-close enough for beer and ice cream in the middle of the night( Sentry market open till 10pm). Maryhill museum is about 25 miles away. Biggs junction and I84 are just 20 miles and highway 97 is only 4 miles away, Toppenish wa is only 55 miles up north highway 97. Room for turning around big rv’s. Bring your grill and lawn chairs, mountain bikes or recumbents,  Fence panels available for a temp dog kennel-limited availability. , No porta potties on site at this time. The guest bathroom accessed through the back door of the mobile home is available for use you will need to bring your own towels, soap ect. Right now there is wifi available at the mobile home by starlink. we hope to be able to extend it to the green pole barn building in the near future. Garbage can be dropped off down by the mobile home in closed garbage bags. At this time you will need to bring your own firewood and grills. Hope to have fire wood for purchase next year as well as fire pits/grills on site. Some rolling terrain, lots of flat spots for camp. The road in is a little rough but my Audi TT doesn't have trouble except when the snow melts and turns into slush. Lots of privacy because the county road does not run past my place and each camp site is aprox 1.5 acres each so you have room for social distancing and privacy or you can find a spot that looks good to you and make your own camp. Located 1/2 mile off of the paved county road. only 3 neighbors within half a mile( the trees are thick enough you probably won't see them ever). Burn ban in effect June 1st till October 1st.

The best camping near Brooks Memorial State Park guide

Overview

About

Imagine the raddest park your mind can muster. Now add a 27-species butterfly garden, a softball field, an amphitheater, and horseshoe pits! Welcome to Brooks Memorial State Park. This sensational 700-acre park is pressed between the Simcoe Mountain conifer forests and the dry hills that make the south Yakima Valley—a scenic matchup with all-you-can-marvel access. Campers and day visitors alike are invited to take advantage of the more than nine miles of hiking and equestrian trails that guide wanderers past the Little Klickitat River, through the Ponderosa and Oregon Pine forests, and to a viewing point presenting Mount Hood. After digesting all that natural beauty, you need a nourishing meal! The first to arrive back down the mountain may take advantage of one of two kitchen shelters equipped with picnic tables, sinks, electricity and restrooms.

Notable campgrounds

  • Standard RV Sites: Equipped with 50-amp electrical outlets and ample space for slide-outs.
  • Full Hookup RV Sites: Include a dump station and access to bathrooms with showers.
  • Wall Tents: Reserved wall tents offer a unique camping experience surrounded by forest tranquility.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your preferred campsite, especially during peak seasons.
  • Consider mid-week stays for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations for last-minute opportunities.
  • Explore nearby camping options if the park is fully booked.

When to go

The best time to visit Brooks Memorial State Park is from mid-April to late October, when the park is open and fully accessible. Summer offers warm days perfect for exploring, while spring and fall provide a colorful backdrop. Winter closure, from November 1 to April 15, means planning a visit outside these months is essential.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have a Discover Pass for park entry, available for $30 annually or $10 for a one-day pass.
  • Dogs are welcome but must remain on a leash at all times.
  • Check for any burn bans or fire restrictions before lighting a campfire.
  • Alcohol is permitted in designated areas only.
  • Be prepared for potential noise from nearby highway 97 and overhead electric lines in certain campsites.
