All inclusive RV camping on 5 quiet acres with views! One site for shorter stays in our RV, and the other is parking for longer stays in yours. Washer and dryer available, ample privacy and lots of open space. We are a hard working family of 5 with 2 dogs and a number of other small animals. We run a quiet / tidy space with access to public lands and walking trails. The 2 mile loop around the neighborhood is scenic and lush with irrigation during the summer months. The 2 fenced acres immediately north of the camping area are for your enjoyment. All of this and more, only 10 minutes from town. Please note that while good separation exists between your accommodations and our primary residence, you should expect to see and hear us around the property on occasion. Lasty, we are at the far corner of a 2 mile gravel loop, making the drive into our property slow and dusty - and also private!

This is a special place with an amazing views, comfortable bed and great shower. Coffee in bed while watching the sun rise. A porch for relaxing. Exactly as advertised, but better!

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

Weekend Trip to STEEP DREAMS

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.

We really enjoyed our stay. Despite the smoke from wildfires the view was gorgeous, the cabin was super cozy and quiet. The pond was also a big hit with our pups, they swam multiple times. We would definitely stay again!

Incredible views, comfy bed, peaceful environment with a little creek they have running right between the little cabin and the tipi. We really enjoyed our stay. We were attending a concert in Bend. We found this to be beautiful drive and not too far from our venue.

My partner and I stayed 3 nights at the Steep Dreams Cabin with our two small dogs. It was the perfect spot. It has the most beautiful view and a peaceful running stream to enjoy on the back porch. Colby and April were very easy to contact and answered any questions we had. We would recommend this stay!

Weekend Trip to STEEP DREAMS

I inherited my eleven year old from a dearly departed friend about a year and a half ago, and she had never been camping before. I, however, am officially too old to sleep on the ground (or so my joints and back tell me). Colby and April’s teepee was the perfect compromise, and gave us a great base camp for a weekend full of adventures. (It feels so luxurious to wake up in a soft and warm bed in the open air of morning!)
