McGovern Residence
3 sites · RVs, Tents28 acres · Pomeroy, WAThe McGovern Residence is a magical little world we've created at the base of the Blue Mountains. We're about an hour South of Palouse Falls, an hour East of Walla Walla wine country, and about an hour West of Lewiston/Clarkston. The property consists of 28 acres on the Tucannon River with mature Ponderosa Pines, wildflowers, curated gardens, hiking trails, incredible valley views, and direct access to 1.4 million acres of public land. Multiple stocked lakes are accessible for fishing just a few miles up the road.
Close to the river, The Flat can accommodate up to 2 tents and 4 people. The main campsite includes a hammock, picnic table, fire ring with benches, and parking for up to 2 cars. Immediately off the parking area is a secondary site with another picnic table and fire ring for those camping directly out of their vehicle. Campers have a faucet for fresh potable water and an outhouse for 24/7 bathroom needs. A short path from either campsite leads to a small river clearing for cooling off and lazy afternoons by the water. The Flat is the only site that we offer and we keep the group size low to ensure a peaceful and relaxing experience for everyone. We allow tents, cars, and smaller camper vans, but unfortunately cannot accommodate trailers or RV's.
The main property is a pocket of green with mature cottonwood, ponderosa pines, choke cherry and elder scrub. Our property borders the Wooten Wildlife area which leads into the Umatilla National Forest - so that's 1.4 million acres of public lands directly to our South. Just down the road are
some really great hiking trails and access points to the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness, or if you prefer to stay close, our property gains 1000' from river to property line. An afternoon trek to the top is challenging but provides a spectacular panoramic view of the Tucannon River valley. Pack some beer and some snacks and hang out for a wicked sunset. We're working hard on our hiking trail - currently it's 3/4 mile (1.5 mile round trip), and growing in length by the week.
During your stay you'll probably see some wild turkey, quail, and some white tailed or mule deer. The area is known to have cougars (we run into them occasionally) bighorn sheep, rattlesnake, black bears, bobcats, and even the occasional moose! There's no shortage of wildlife in the area, and we enjoy when they visit us. Be on the lookout at dusk for the nightly bat show! We also have a flock of chickens that free-range during the day, so don't be surprised to get a visitor or two poking around for scraps.
Our property is rural, but not isolated. Depending on where you stake your tent you might see some neighbors, but we can direct you to the right spot
if you want to avoid it.
The towns of Dayton and Pomeroy are both about 20 minutes away. Both have their own charm and offer a grocery store, a couple bars, gas, and supplies. There's an RV park and general store about a mile up the road if you need some quick essentials or a few gallons of gas.
At the center of the property is a log cabin we're slowly renovating. We live here full time so when we're home we're out and about working on projects
or clearing brush. You'll see us wandering, so interact with us as much as you want or just do your thing.
This is our home and we like to host, but it's not necessary. On that note, this is not a 'campground'. We have a beautiful property with a campsite and like to share it! We hope you enjoy yourself while also respecting our home :)

HISTORY
The Oasis is a 35-acre family homestead that has been in the family four generations. It was purchased by the Schierman family in 1916 who were wheat and barley famers in the age of horse-drawn farming. The Schierman family farmed 550 acres of their own land and up to 1750 acres total in the beginning of the new century. Grandpa had the pond dug while Tom was in college with a huge clamshell draught. Tom planted thousands of trees when he moved home from college to farm. James and Jon are continuing the legacy of landscaping.
The Oasis is perfect basecamp to relax and unwind. Stargaze late at night. Cook over the fire. Have a little gathering of friends and laugh all night long.
The Oasis is also great for larger group camps and private camping events. We can accommodate most RV's, motorhomes, campers. There is plenty of room for van and tailgate camping.
You are welcome to reserve a date for a reunion, wedding, private party, disc golf tournament, or concert.

A large garden supplied family vegetables. A love for the land and the area were all part of the Farm. Located two miles from Joseph, three miles from Wallowa Lake, and close to hiking, fishing, camping, and outdoor adventures, the Farm is secluded but offers easy access to the surrounding area.

Shady Pines
7 sites · RVs, Tents12 acres · Davenport, WAEnjoy our quiet getaway in the trees, just around the corner from Lake Roosevelt and Fort Spokane.
The site is quiet and rustic, and largely undeveloped. The few sites are generally isolated from each other, for a private experience. Use one of our frequently-used tent sites or group sites, or try some at-large camping.
Expect nature all around you. Clear night skies are normal, and an amazing sight.
There is a fire ban every summer. During a fire ban, you may not burn with an open flame. Charcoal BBQs and propane stoves are generally OK. Contact the Lincoln County Sheriff for the Dear Meadows area for more details at 509-725-3501. Please be careful with fire at all times.
Some mapping apps don't show it accurately. The entrance is on Miles Creston Rd, roughly a half mile N of the turn-off for Hawk Creek CG. There's a twisty log marking the driveway, which should have the address number on it.
The property is marked with black/orange No Trespassing signs - these are to keep others away. Please do respect the red/white signs around the perimeter of the property since these mark the actual property boundary.
