Welcome to the Ranch!
Leave the noise and bustle of urban life behind, and settle into the peace and beauty of our off-grid ranch in Washington’s enchanting Kettle Range. Dark skies make for unparalleled stargazing!
Our Ranch is located 15 miles north of Republic, WA in Ferry County. Just a scenic 30-minute drive further north is the Canadian border crossing at Danville/Grand Forks, BC.
We love hosting Hipcampers! A Resource Book is available to borrow offering ideas for local recreation. We are happy to help make your stay at our Ranch special!
On the day of your booking, we will reach out as to your ETA. We always greet and escort you to your site, so please arrive as close to Check-In time as possible. If you will be delayed, please be courteous of our time and let us know by calling our landline: 509-775-0204.
NOTE: It is 3 1/2 miles on a dirt county road to reach the Ranch; at various times of the year it is quite bumpy (and dusty)!
If you have questions about the campsites please let us know. If all sites are booked, contact us anyway- we may be able to create a spot just for you! We have room to grow but are doing it slowly.
Each campsite is very private, but the sounds of neighbors down in the valley below do travel during the day. This is also a working Ranch so please be aware that there are sounds associated with our activities (although far above the campsites)- the sheep, pigs, and goats get excited at feeding time; the dogs bark while doing their jobs sometimes during the night; the rooster announces the break of dawn. However, none of that detracts too much from the soothing music of the forest!
~ Take in the native flora and fauna on our self-guided "Woodland Walk".
~ The Ranch is perfect for bird watching and stargazing!
~ The Ranch borders State Land and is within 1 mile of the Colville National Forest which means endless miles of picturesque hiking and wildlife viewing! The Ferry County Rail Trail is a must-do.
~ Swimming, fishing, boating, and water skiing are only 15 minutes away at Curlew Lake State Park and the Kettle River.
~ One bundle of firewood, 15 gallons of potable water, and a compost toilet are included with your stay. BYOTP though. :)
~ Ranch-grown eggs and organic produce for your meals are seasonally available for purchase.
WILDLIFE: There is a wide range of wildlife around the Ranch- snowshoe hare, grouse, turkey, bobcat, Canada lynx, coyote, cougar, wolf, and black bear. Please use common sense while camping! Always be aware of your surroundings. Keep garbage secure in a vehicle. - There are also ticks in the area!A lovely private site on the forested hillside. The breeze in the trees and birdsong are fantastic! The site supports up to two tents (or 4 if you don't mind the spot not being perfectly level!), a van camper, or backing in a small pop-up trailer with an all-wheel-drive vehicle. There is a parking area nearby for extra vehicles.
