Weekend Trip to Rags To Rescues Sanctuary

We stayed in the Bunkhouse. The listing definitely undersells how beautiful this place is. Super spacious, well appointed kitchen, super comfy everything, awesome hot tub, and animal friends! When we weren't relaxing or staring at the stars while having a soak, we got to know the cute critters that call this place home. Bonnie is a fantastic host and I love that the proceeds from our stay went to the sanctuary. We will definitely be staying again.

Sandy and Tim’s tipi was so fun and it’s beautifully made! Inside, it’s spacious enough to setup camp and still stand and easily move around. The fire pit was worth it on a cold night as it easily kept us cozy and warm all night. The community space is thoughtfully setup with many resources. The tuxedo cat (unsure their name but we called them “Noodle”) joined us at the community space, then followed us back to the tipi. We were happy to have their companionship, but heads up in case that’s not your preference because it did sneak its way through the main zipper of the tent. 10/10 would recommend.

The tipi was very cool! It was super convenient being able to camp without having to setup too much. We just brought a pillow and sleeping bag. It was fairly easy to find and we were able to easily navigate there in our Tesla model 3 on the dirt/gravel roads. The area was well lit and the site was very clean. Bring camp chairs for the fire pit! Be aware that it does get pretty chilly overnight being in the desert so make sure you bring a warm enough sleeping bag. Overall it was a cool camping experience!

I have stayed with my wife here before, I have also camped on the property a few times. It has become one of my favorite places to get away. It’s very stress free, Amanda is a wonderful host and the place is quite frankly, stunning. I enjoy places of silence and few people, and this has both. And the stars, you just can’t get them any better than here. Fantastic. BF

Most comfortable bed from an online reservation ever! Very clean and cozy teepee with nice details like lamps with usb plug ins and nightlight setting, heavy blankets and a couple chairs. Portapotty down the hill was clean. Nice landscaping and a cute pond. There were lots of deer to greet us. Note—the gravel path up is indeed steep, we made it in good weather in a Prius, 4 wheel drive in anything less than dry conditions would be great. We’d definitely stay here again.

Very nice first time to bend so my opinion may be a bit biased but this was absolutely a great last minute decision we already have plans to come back. The night sky was unmatched. A little noise from the road but honestly that just keeps me grounded. The kitties running around were the 2nd big surprise. Such nice kitties one even snuggled up with us in the night. I can’t wait for the next trip. Will definitely be a stop for us.

Susan's place is phenomenal. It's a fantastic location right above Billy Chinook Lake. It has a sweet little cabin you can stay in and a tent site area complete with everything you could need for a weekend away. Her attention to detail is impeccable. Each area has outdoor lounging areas, propane fire pits, outdoor cooking areas complete with supplies, a lovely hot outdoor shower, and a cozy hot tub that's perfect for late night soaking and star gazing. She was the best host you could ask for, so friendly, helpful, and responsive.

We arrived at the site and were unable to stay due to the air quality and wildfire smoke-we had small children and it was just too smokey to camp. Sandy and Tim were able to give us a refund due to the extreme weather and being unable to stay. The Tipi looked amazing, and their whole camp set up was thoughtful. We hope to come back and stay in the future and do the tipi, minus the smoke.

This was a memorable place. I liked it. I guess the things you need to know are that it is a shortish trip into Bend (15-20 mins) and it is about as comfortable as you can make it. We were in town for a concert @ the Amphitheatre and floated the Deschutes. At this hipcamp you basically have a beautiful campsite in the desert. We did find a scorpion, so desert camping protocol should be followed (like don't lay your clothes down on the floor at night - or at least shake out everything before you put it on) and I wouldn't wander around the desert. The blue room is about as pleasant as a blue room gets in August - better than nothing! I would stay here again. It was very unique and we saw 20-30 shooting stars (there was an asteroid shower). Maybe the only suggestion I could throw out there to the owners is to shade the blue room? Add a second one? I never had to wait for the room to vacate, but one restroom can be dicey if most of the campsites were being occupied. My 2wd Van had no issues with the roads in/out but can see where staying on the path is a good idea. Thanks for letting me visit your awesome piece of Oregon desert.
