Weekend Trip to Phoenix Rising Ranch

Overall really great experience. Lots of rules and its really close to the owners house but peaceful and serene.

Weekend Trip to SPOKANE CAMPING In The Forest

We loved our time at Jane’s place. We had both site #1 and #2 booked for our large group and they were both fantastic. Between the two sites, there are a total of two wooden platforms for tents, a large tipi that 4 of us comfortably slept in (although it could probably fit up to 5-6 people), and we found one or two additional flat areas that were adequate for setting up tents. Do note, the entire property is on a slight hill, and Jane has beautifully created level areas for fires, picnic tables, etc, but there are only a couple additional “natural” flat areas. The “far-out house” was awesome; very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Also note, the tipi is not 100% bug proof and the hole in the canvas at the top where all the wooden poles come together does allow rain in. We stayed in the tipi multiple nights and had absolutely no problem though. We only noticed mosquitos at our campsite (not inside the tipi) for about an hour or so one evening, besides that the entire area was pretty bug-less, as we had a gentle breeze up on the hill most of the time. A few of us had intermittent, unstable, low-bar signal on our phones up at the tipi site. It’s about a 5-10 min drive out onto a main road for cell service and amenities (convenience stores, etc). Jane was communicative and accommodating. She graciously helped us transport a few large, heavy loads of our camping equipment in her golf cart. We would definitely stay at Jane’s place again in future!

Absolutely loved this spot! Jane and her husband were so accommodating and sweet :) their land they have is beautiful and they’ve really made the most of the camp sites they’ve created. The campsite we stayed in came with 1 bundle complimentary wood and fire starters, sticks to roast marshmallows, a cute bench fixed with blankets for cushion, chairs, and best of all, FILTERED WATER spout right at our site. Definitely one of the top places i’ve stayed on hipcamp. This area felt so safe as well, i’d even consider coming back and camping alone! (im 23F) They had such cool things to walk around and look at too. The outhouse they built with a shower/toilet/sink was very nice! Highly recommend!

The Cabin had everything you need and was laid out perfectly to house 3-4 comfortably. Dario was extremely accommodating and helpful with checking in and packing out

Dario’s Cabin was great. If you’re going in the winter after a storm I recommend studded tires, snow chains, or even just parking down the hill. Full disclosure: I slid off the road about 600ft from the apartment. Dario lives on the property too and he was very responsive and ready to help dig out the car. Luckily I was able to get out myself. As for the cabin, it was just as advertised. If I weren’t moving back east I would definitely come back soon.

Phoenix Rising Ranch

5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents20 acres · Priest River, ID

This is a very private and quiet place, more of a sanctuary and not a party place. The only thing you hear is nature, a breeze through the pine trees, the birds, and the creek. This property was and is an organic permaculture farm in the forest. There are two orchards and an organic garden. The water is from a spring. The La Luna cabin is off-grid with an option to plugin if needed. Hot Showers at my cabins are private and outdoors. There's nothing more wonderful than a hot spring-fed shower. The toilets are composting. (No water is wasted here)! Two of the cabins were built from the trees on the property by the first family that lived here in the earlier 1900s. The Birds Nest cabin was originally a tool shed that needed a LOT of Love to be in the condition that it is today. It does have power, running water and wi-fi. There is the option to take an acrylic painting class, banjo, guitar or fiddle lessons, paddleboard lessons, and have a real old-timey campfire with a glass of wine or two with live music performed by our famous Fiddlin Red on the fiddle, banjo, and guitar. Your experience here may change your life forever! We haven't added all the experiential options yet, so if there is something you are interested in please inquire. Every year we make it more and more magical and interesting. It's four miles up a county-maintained dirt road and one mile to a non-motorized lake. I can't see my neighbors, but they are awesome artists and musicians and some of them are off the grid! If you're bringing a pet, they must be on a leash and be quiet pets. If you are bringing a child they also need to be quiet and respectful. I want to keep my neighbors and my other guests happy with a peaceful atmosphere. Thank you!

SPOKANE CAMPING In The Forest

4 sites · Lodging, Tents5 acres · Spokane, WA

The property we named GAEA (the old Greek spelling of Mother Earth) was first seen in a vision. Historically, Deep Creek Canyon was a winter encampment for the Spokane Indians, whose ancestral lands surround us. We feel the healing spirit of the land, in partnership and stewardship. We gather community for Solstice & Equinox celebrations, bringing people together to honor the changing seasons. Our original house was one of the first in the canyon, in the early 1940's. There’s a map that leads you to hidden features, like the gypsy fortune-telling tea house, a fairy mound at the base of a huge fir tree, a yoga platform, and a Buddha bench for contemplating or conversation.

Lost Fainting Goat Ranch

1 site · Lodging21 acres · Sandpoint, ID

COME AND EXPERIENCE BEAUTIFUL NORTH IDAHO!!! We are located down a dead-end road, approximately 18 miles from downtown Sandpoint, with all it has to offer, yummy restaurants, Cedar Street Public Market, music concerts, the Bonner County Fair and don't miss City Beach no matter the weather, maybe even take a lake tour. We are 12 miles from The Idaho Club and just 22 miles from Schweitzer and some of the most breathtaking views around. There is always something to do and see on the mountain. Trestle Creek Park on the shore of Lake Pend Oreille, is another of our favorite places and it's only a 16-mile drive through some of the most picturesque areas of the NW. After a fun filled day exploring North Idaho come and relax at The Lost Fainting Goat Ranch, an amusing name for a place we call home. There is a separate private driveway, and you will have the whole camp area to yourselves, yet we aren't far away should a need arise. You may occasionally hear us (4 busy kids, 1 fat cat, 2 friendly dogs, 1 noisy rooster and 11 happy hens yet still no fainting goats) but we want you to feel like you are in your own private sanctuary. We are offering a new furnished bell tent in a secluded area of our private property in the beautiful mountains of Sandpoint Idaho. Our camp area is along a quiet creek that is visited by deer, wild turkey, squirls and even the occasional moose. There are also those less desirable critters that live in nature like insects, and we do try and mitigate those troublemakers with screens, traps, Diatomaceous Earth and other natural means. This area of our property is off grid with a wonderful shower house built from wood milled from our own land, complete with hot water and a compost toilet. We even provide Starlink WiFi and a way to charge cell phones thanks to our solar charged batteries. There is a fire pit, comfy chairs, a beautiful picnic table, again, made from wood from our own land, and a screened in area with cooking supplies. Our family enjoys hosting guests and we enjoy meeting new people. The most common phrase we heard when we first moved here was "Welcome to Idaho!" We hope you love it here as much as we do. When you reserve your time with us, please look for messages regarding directions and check-in instructions, we like to meet everyone to show you around and it gets pretty dark out here in the country and the cell coverage is pretty spotty in our area. We truly want you to have a relaxing experience and good communication helps us serve you better. Thank you!

4 sites · Lodging, Tents7 acres · Priest River, ID

Meet your hosts at Cedar River, Shaunna and Jeremiah. Along with their children and extended family, this couple has realized a dream a lifetime in the making. Cedar River is the 'labor of love' child of veteran wedding photographer (Jeremiah Andrews) and sustainability entrepreneur (Shaunna Dahlberg). The home and property on Priest River was purchased as a family gathering place and dream retirement home. Shaunna and Jeremiah eagerly undertook the formidable task of updating and renovating their dream retreat from top to bottom. The home has been transformed into a warm and inviting place for family and friends to share amazing meals, good drink, and bountiful laughter. Beyond the main house, Jeremiah and Shaunna envision sharing the beauty of Priest River with the ones they cherish most. Cedar River was built (quite literally, stone by stone) as their own custom, forested riverside wedding setting. The two are ecstatic with the simple elegance and quirky bohemian vibe of the property as they share in the magical moments coming to life. Jeremiah and Shaunna look forward to the adventure that comes with growing as a family, a couple, and hosts to the Inland Northwest's newest premier waterfront wedding, event and camping venue.
