Be warned: NOT a private site
7 m pop-up camper · With pets
We have a dog with high anxiety, so he barked constantly and I felt bad for everybody. I had no idea the site was literally right next to their house. I wish I would have known. We prefer more private camping due to our dog alone. As a rescue he just is afraid of people (anything actually) which is why we camp, to get away from things.
We came back from a long day wanting to lounge in the yard but the family had a guys volley ball match happening and you’re literally right there so it just felt awkward most of the time.
The place alone was great for our kids. So much to do between all of their outdoor equipment and basketball court. Not much privacy so that was a con but our kiddos loved the animal tour so that was a plus. Close to Remlinger Farm, Lake Sammamish, Snoqualmie Falls, and even just a fun river for the kids to skip rocks, there’s lots to do. We ended up trying to stay gone most of our trip just because again, the lack of privacy but it helped us explore what was around.
Bottom line: if you’re looking for a good base camp, this is great. Just a place to sleep and head to activities, I would totally do it again. But if you’re looking to actually camp and be in nature, this one kind of missed the mark for us.
I will say the family is incredibly nice. Larisa was so kind to our kids and though we didn’t talk to her children, they were around the property and gave us space. Her son would ride his remote car on the main gravel and my kids got a hoot out of it.
