Thanks for checking out our little sanctuary, nestled upon 5 acres near the tip of the Steamboat Peninsula. Steamboat Meadows offers campers a stress free and an affordable option. Currently with 5 campsites (only 1 site currently available until we open up the remaining sites on September 15th). Two of the new sites will be much different than anything we've offered in the past. We're working on the finishing touches to "Terrapin Suite", a 640sqft barn structure, yet modern and fully furnished. Terrapin Suite offers incredible views and all the amenities commonly found in a tiny home. The second site coming in the late spring of 2024, is a glamping site with a Canvas Bell tent, queen bed, spring water, rugs, solar power, and electric cook surface. Please note: for the remainder of September we will relocating a few sites to offer a more private and wilderness like experience. Additionally, we want to ensure that our neighbors enjoy the serenity they live here for. This is a space to recreate, but most importantly a space to "get away" and reset. All guests have access to WIFI-, private indoor bathroom with shower, and chill room to relax, charge devices and plan your next adventure. During fire bans, NO FIRES WILL BE ALLLOWED. Propane stoves may be used in the gravel driveway or on tables. Campers are invited to walk the property which has a couple short hiking loops in the back and hammocks for relaxing. Campground offers activities for chill time, which include table tennis, corn hole and a 4 hole disc golf course. On hot days, we also have a misting tent surrounded by fruit trees. During your stay, you'll be in the sweet spot and just 1.5 hours to either Mount Rainer and/or Olympic National Parks. 20 minutes from Olympia, 5 minutes to the local Steamboat General Store. Steamboat Meadows will be closing for the season at the end of September. During our seasonal closure, we will building two new loop trails through the forest and a board walk to better experience the wetlands. Other improvements include, aerial shade structures, locally milled handmade benches, and LED wide angle UV lighting for easy navigation on the property. Please contact us if you have any questions. More photos coming soon. Cheers, Rob

Drive-in site # 1
Lovely place to camp near Olympia
We spent a fabulous night on Rob’s land, Steamboat Meadows. The site was pristine and quiet. The bathroom was clean and so nice to have. Rob has a very nice set up with many great touches… lighting, games, trails. A wonderful space for our family to relax. We will definitely be back!

Great spot, attentive host.
Rob was very committed to ensuring we had a great stay. We had everything we needed, and Rob was a great host. I look forward to seeing what Rob does with the place in the coming years. I'll definitely be back.

Drive-in site # 1
Steamboat Meadows is a lovely camp spot. Tent #1 has a beautiful cedar tree to tent under. The hammock was a nice treat as well. Deer, bird song in the morning, bull frog in the evening. Close to where you park with access to a cart to carry things to the site. The bathroom with shower access was greatly appreciated. Clean and tidy. Rob was available if need be and also have space for me to have a quiet respite. Camp site #2 was unoccupied, but it is right next to #1, so if you are looking for a real private spot you may not get that for these two campsites. There is a nice big fire pit for social time close by both these sites. It is about 20 minutes from Olympia and very easy to navigate to and fro. I would definitely camp here again.

Rob's property is well maintained and a cool spot to spend a couple of days. There are fun lawn games to play and a nice trail to walk. The bathroom with shower was well maintained and the lounge space looked cozy, though I didn't spend any time in there. He was available if needed but didn't micro manage us in any way. We would stay there again in the future.

Enjoyed our weekend camping here. Rob was very attentive and made sure we were comfortable. We will definitely be back. There’s also a couple of games provided that we enjoyed! Thanks again Rob for the hospitality.

The host was quite welcoming. For us the biggest perk was an access to a warm shower, and then we were happily surprised with the many outdoor games. There were glitches with water access while we were there, and a table for meal prep would have been good. This was a very beautiful spot, and we appreciate the host being open to us accessing his yard, through trails he had created. However, we definitely wish the distance between campsites would have been further apart for a little more privacy.
