8 campsites and 2 original Mongolian Gers.
The season for the camp sites is from June 1st to end of Sept and the Gers for 2025/2026 winter are blocked out from Nov 15/25 to May 15/26.
Pets allowed, toilets on site, campfires permitted when burn ban is not in place. Now up until this year I have provided Free Firewood. I have quit doing that for a variety of reasons, the least being the cost and the work for me. I am encouraging everyone to purchase a Propane Fire Pit if you don't have one by now.
I am not to the point yet of saying no big dogs. Talk to me if you think your "big dog" might not fit in. I don't like them running thru other campers sites, so just be respectful. Take them for walks along the lake.. No Yappers, no barking dogs, no pain in the butts.
Why would you drive by 46 grocery stores and forget to bring ice?
No loud music. I have changed quiet time to 9:00 PM. If you need to listen to the chaos/stressful music I suggest you start a band or become a DJ.
What I want folks to get out of being here, whether they are camping or staying in the Gers is just to “take a break”.
Relax, appreciate, assess and just listen.
I hope what you hear is the sound of life and of course all the Angels that make up this special piece of Heaven.
Then there is the silence.
The best part of “Heaven”.

Any Cheryl Strayed/Reese Witherspoon fans in the house? Retrace their Wild footsteps in the Fremont-Winema National Forest; part of the 2,650 mile Pacific Crest Trail falls along the forest’s western edge. And the forest certainly is “wild”: the 2.3 million acres of lush green forests and alpine meadows shelter elk, antelope, bobcats, and bears--plus intrepid adventure seekers, like yourself! In the summer, try hiking or biking along the Crane Trail, which offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. And don’t fret when the weather turns cold and snowy; Fremont-Winema turns into a winter wonderland! Strap on ski goggles and coast downhill, or rev it up on a snowmobile at the Quartz Mountain Sno-park. Back at camp, warm up with a cup of hot cocoa--with extra marshmallows, thank you very much--and start planning for your next day in Oregon paradise.

Beautiful, quiet, isolated, yet easy to find spot on East Lake. Close to Bend and LaPine. Lots of ducks and other birds, chipmunks, and we could hear other critters roaming around at night. David was a lovely host. Would definitely stay again.

Everything about our stay at David's was incredible, starting with him. After pre-arrival instructions/how-to from him, he greeted us upon arrival to give us a lay of the Ger along with a lay of the land. He is a kind, straight-shooting man with an INCREDIBLE story (I'd encourage a chat with him). The Ger and the land were amazing. We had everything we needed for an elevated and unique camping experience within the Ger. Outside, David stewards a prime lakefront beach property, idyllic in so many ways, not the least of which is it's quite serenity. I'll definitely be coming back and encourage you to visit.

Loved this place. We were road tripping to Crater Lake. Stayed here for one night on the way down and planned on staying somewhere a little closer to Crater Lake the following night. But we enjoyed this spot so much, we decided to book it a second night after we spent the day down at Crater Lake. Welcoming hosts and a lovely campsite environment

Julie and Clay were great hosts! The cabin was so cute. Snug but very homey. The property was spacious and will definitely be coming back with more of our friends. The porta-potty even flushed. There was a grill available for use and lots of seating around the fire pit. We loved lasso-ing and seeing the wildlife in the area

Weekend Trip to log shelter retreat
The hosts were extremely nice and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable right from the start. The trailer experience was such a rare and enjoyable opportunity. The entire site, including the restroom, was very clean and well maintained. The location was easy to find, and at night it was perfectly quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, unique, and relaxing stay.

We had so much fun sleeping in the yurt at East Lake. David was a welcoming host, and he was so unique and fun to talk with too. His property is so special. The boats and paddleboard were fun and it was fun letting my dog run. He loved it; definitely in his element as a lake dog. The yurt was well equipped with everything you could need to cook and it was clean and comfortable. Obsidion speckled the roads and was fun to collect. May daughter and I walked along the edge of the lake all the way to the resort, which was so peaceful and fun. The camping area seemed so fun too- lots of space. The energy was really special. We want to go back and stay longer! Hopefully next summer!

I had such a relaxing time at David’s little slice of heaven! Porter potties were clean, there was canoes, paddle boards, and little boats to borrow as well. David lent me a wine opener and checked in on me after the storm that rolled through. Highly recommend!

Haley and her husband Lance are incredibly friendly and generous. This place was quiet, peaceful, and had just what we needed for a quick overnight stay. We had access to a bathroom and hot showers. Lance was quick to make sure we settled in comfortably and Haley directed us to a yummy breakfast plane in Bend, the Sparrow Cafe. Be sure to love on their sweet dogs, my fave was Wrangell.

We had an absolute blast at David's incredible property. The lake is gorgeous, and the entire area in and around the Newberry Caldera is stunning. We're a mid-forties couple (no kids) and prefer a quiet tent camping experience - David hooked us up with a lovely, isolated campground at the far end of his sites, which was perfect for us. There were a number of spaces on the other end of the beach which were excellent for families, groups, larger vans, and pop-up campers. Something for everyone! The available watercraft loans were a fantastic perk. We were there for a week, and were able to get both ice and propane resupplies from David when we ran out, rather than driving into town (which isn't far - we just didn't want to leave!). The bathrooms were clean and incredibly well-maintained. 10 out of 10. We will most definitely be back!

Great hosts! Very responsive and friendly, even though it was a last minute booking. We appreciated the motion activated lights on the way to the portapotty. The camp is on property in a rural neighborhood with other homes with acreage around. The trees provide some privacy and gave it a feeling of being in the woods. Amazing star view at night!

We had a great stay at Julie and Clay’s and look forward to coming back for a longer stay next time. They are wonderfully warm and welcoming, and greeted us when we arrived and showed us around. The cabin was adorable and the kids loved the loft. The location is quiet and safe with recreational opportunities within a walking distance - or we could play ping pong and horseshoes near the fire pit! A great spot with great hosts! Highly recommend!
