My husband and I loved staying at Trent's cabin! We were looking for a quiet, romantic getaway where we could take long walks in the woods and relax in a comfortable cabin at night. The wood stove hot tub was amazing. Trent was a great host and was very attentive to our needs while also making sure we had all the privacy that we could want. I would stay here again anytime!

Weekend Trip to Fern Haus
The Stargazer Bell Tent was a lovely little spot! There was a creek that was easy to get to and just adorable. The campsite itself and the tent were nicely cared for and the people nearby at the other campsite weren't much of an issue (except for leaving the outhouse quite messy, causing us to clean up after them). The outhouse was surprisingly very nice, for an outhouse! You can tell a lot of love goes into this whole spot at Fern Haus. The only tiny complaint I have is that all of the furniture pieces (chairs at the table inside the tent, chairs by the firepit, the picnic table itself, and the chairs by the creek) were cheap, flimsy, unstable, and rickety. I did not feel safe sitting in anything supplied at the campsite. I was glad we brought our own camp chairs! But other than that, we had a great time! Comfy bed, too! Thanks for the adventure!

Love it, I wanted to do something different and it was. I love Rick and his wife very much and thier beautiful female dog. It was so nice to be away from the dry heat of eastern washington. I like how the tipi was set inside. I've never spent the night in one before it was a trip. Thanks to Rick and his wife thanks for the wonderful weekend! And of course hipcamp, I'm from the bay area and it's things like this that keep life interest!!!

100% recommend staying here! The location is nice. Plenty of activities around, but also the perfect place to just stay in. The property is gorgeous and they thought of everything! It’s so secluded and cozy, the hosts are amazing and made sure we had everything we needed and more. You get far more than just a place to stay, you get a whole experience. We plan to make this place a tradition.

We loved staying in Trent’s little cabin oasis! The bed was comfy, the hot tub was extremely fun and relaxing, the hammock was where my wife spent most of her time, while I spent my time cooking and playing fetch with our dog.
I’d certainly recommend this place to friends! The cooking supplies really helped, and there were little things like salt/pepper, the bedside fan, fresh water, ice, tiki torches, and coffee that made our stay even better.
Trent and his wife were super friendly with our dog, which we always appreciate! Thank you for having us!

From the moment we first communicated with Trent he was very accommodating. Everyone around the property is extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. Any questions you have they can answer (even about Burmese Poison Fighting Goats). The bed was very comfortable, the wood fired hot tub relaxing, and the property serene (albeit some noisy neighbors at 4am- looking at you roosters). Stay here, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
