Weekend Trip to Ellen's Time Out
What an amazing find. Dave was so accommodating in the space is great, especially if you have dogs. It’s basically his very big backyard completely fenced in. Convenient to Portland, convenient to mount Hood. Made some new friends with a couple who was camping there when we got there. Dave even filled my water tanks before I left.

Very nice stopover for the night. Very quiet and plenty of room to sit and relax after a long drive. Lots of shopping close by if needed and not too far from the freeway. Dave is very welcoming and friendly and made sure we were comfortable. Even the squirrels were entertaining.

Best Hipcamp I've stayed at so far, and wow, they've set the bar high. Sites are truly big, and truly spaced apart. And, they are pretty level. Make sure you know how far you want to transport your gear. Two sites are drive in and the ones that say adjacent to big parking lot really are an easy transport. There are a couple that are farther and require you to truck gear down a small incline. There are wheelbarrows to help if you want one of those. Fanciest compost toilets I've ever seen. Spring water available for use. Chickens, goats, cats, and even a pig up near the house if you want to visit. And while I was there, fresh plums off the trees! Easy to find, although Google turned me one driveway too soon coming in from Amboy direction. Host has put up a big wooden sign with the street address so look for that. Lovely country roads, waterfalls, a scenic river, and hikes in the area. This place is so much better than the bigger traditional campgrounds in the area. I hope to camp here again, just for those bathrooms alone! Thanks Mike for creating such a lovely space!!

This is a beautiful, thoughtfully developed campsite. The property is large, and the sites are spread out enough that you very much have your own space. Having potable water available was a big plus, and although we visited during a burn ban, the firepits that are set up at the campsites look great. As someone who sometimes feels cramped at established campgrounds, but doesn't always have time to go searching for disperesed camping, this was a wonderful option. Definifely exceeded my expectations and I hope to return sometime! The host was very friendly, too.

Just as advertised, a large fenced field near Portland. Host met us on arrival, allowed us to get some water from a tap at his house, which is adjacent. Felt very secure. Double gate allows access in or out at all hours.

Dave and Ellen were very kind and extremely helpful. Ellen met me at the gate and helped me find their site. Dave communicated amazingly and helped me find where to throw away dog waste. It was a short trip but I would definitely go back again.

Campsite #4 was worth every step of the trek. It feels like stumbling into a secret kingdom, with giant trees standing tall like ancient guardians. The creek is pure magic...perfect for dipping your feet, listening to the water sing, and forgetting the rest of the world exists. Secluded, serene, and just a little wild...exactly how camping should be.

We loved our brief stay. It was well maintained and clean, and with the doors and windows opened it stayed cool with a great breeze. Yellow jackets were out but the breeze helped with them too.

Weekend Trip to KLICKITAT VIEW CABIN
This place was lovely! We went so wee could go to the goldendale observatory to catch the meteor showers, and the stars out there are incredible. We also got some pastries at the Greek Orthodox Bakery which were delicious, and checked out the Stonehenge and the Maryhill art museum along with exploring more spots along the Columbia. There’s so much to see here!
I love how they have set it up. When we stayed it was a hot weekend (105 degrees!) and so I’m so glad we stayed here instead of in a tent, the bed and the couch were comfortable, there was everything we needed inside and it cooled down enough at night with the windows open (yay for screens on the windows for bugs!) that we could all sleep! I’ve already recommended this beautiful spot to some family and friends.

We really enjoyed our time at this HipCamp. They have a lovely little creek along the back of their property, spacious campsites that have privacy, and a pig who is desperate for pets & attention.
The hosts were very friendly & helpful. There is a grocery store, coffee shop, and restaurant/tavern near by providing convenience.
We would definitely recommend this site to others.

We absolutely loved this campsite! It's set in a gorgeous and well maintained forest with this wonderful creek. There a ton of great relaxing places and little spots to discover. Also great view of the stars. The host is the perfect host, very friendly and great to talk with. Just like the host the animals are also very friendly! Perfect for everyone who would like to get relax, explore and have fun. All of the campsites are really good sized, enough for my dog to have room to run around plus more and the bathrooms were really clean. I really cannot say enough good things about this campsite, we'll absolutely be coming back!

Site 3 at Nature Camp was perfect! Very spacious and private and you can drive your car in. We enjoyed walking down to the creek and the small trail to the main house to collect potable water. The host was very friendly and the other campers were super nice as well. There are also a lot of more serious hiking trails within a 10 minute drive.

Lovely spot next to creek! A bit of a hike from parking so plan accordingly, but worth it to hear the river at night and also have a spot with a little beach nearby to hang out for the day.
