We enjoyed staying here. The hosts were extremely accommodating for our group and a late arrival. Flexible on departure time as well. Lawn was very well maintained and a joy to walk on. Located at the edge of town and easy to get to and from. Would recommend staying!

Close enough to downtown Walla Walla for easy access while far enough on the edge of town for quiet country setting. Space is easily accessed, hookups available with welcoming hosts who directed us to to local winery for free music and food trucks after our long drive.

Great location, close to town, close to wineries, but also remote enough to get away from everything. Clean and orderly campsite with easy to use full hook-ups. Super nice and friendly hosts. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Located on the site of a circa 1900 cherry orchard and small dairy

Janet's place was wonderful! In a quiet scenic place, in a fairly private spot on her property. Loved the animals! Jack Daniels the pig is very friendly and loves treats! the goats curious and friendly as well as the cats. The breads we ordered were delivered hot from the oven and tasted delicious. We also got to pick fresh raspberries from her garden for breakfast. Would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area.

Jan was a great host and greeted us with a beautiful homebaked cinnamon/raisin bread, and introduced us to the farm's animals and the peaceful grounds. It was a quiet and beautiful place to pitch our tent and launch our backpacking trip into Eagle Cap Wilderness. We'll be back!

What a fun camping experience! Lots of farm animals to keep you company, plenty of tent space under tree cover, and amazing biscuits and zuchinni bread for breakfast, if you order. Janet was very helpful! Be careful as you drive to this farm-- so many deer on the roads!

A bit of grass close to a creek to put up a tent…... creek not really assessable but fell asleep to the sound of it. I heard four elk bugles when I woke up…… didn’t spot them though. Easy & not too far off route 12. No toilets, water……. Just simple. Great contact with host.

We loved our stay! The spot was perfect for us. Close to town and wineries, yet quiet. We slept great. The parking was easy and flat. The hook-ups worked flawlessly. The hosts are friendly and their dog is too. There is a fire pit but it was too windy to use it.
