Welcome to Black Bear Retreat — Your 35 Acres of Forested Paradise
4 wheel drive vehicles are necessary to access this beautiful parcel tucked in the Simcoe Mountains near Goldendale, Washington. This is your chance to unplug and rediscover what real space feels like. Spread across 35 lush, forested acres, Black Bear Retreat offers multiple trails for hiking or ATVs, wide-open skies, and a peaceful haven for nature lovers.
Perfect for tent camping—in a forested setting, but close enough to creature comforts. Water delivery available upon request.
Off-leash friendly: bring your dog to roam and explore with you.
Gather friends or family—the tent sites can host up to 20 people, so it’s ideal for group getaways, weekend retreats, or just a sweet escape into the woods. Whether you want to hike, relax by the trees, or just gaze at the stars, Black Bear Retreat gives you the room to breathe and the freedom to roam.
Come for the trees, stay for the tranquility.

Welcome to Big Tree Retreat, a secluded and private property nestled alongside the majestic Salmon River. With just under an acre of land, this tranquil getaway offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Upon arrival at our home, you'll find a convenient circular driveway, perfect for parking your mid-sized RV or trailer. The house onsite will be unoccupied during your visit. As you settle in, let the soothing sounds of the river flowing by create a serene background for your stay. Whether you choose to relax by the firepit or unwind in the hammock with a good book, you'll be surrounded by the tranquility of nature.
For those traveling with RVs, there's a 50 amp hookup available at the rear of the house, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay. Please bring a decent length power cord as the distance is ~50 ft. You will also have access to potable water during your stay via the spigot on the side of the home.
One of the highlights of our property is the magnificent Douglas Fir tree, which stands tall and proud at over 500 years old. Considered an ecological gem, this ancient tree is highly regarded by arborists in the area and adds to the natural beauty of your surroundings.
While the surrounding area offers a plethora of outdoor activities and adventures, Big Tree Retreat itself serves as your personal refuge.
Our property is equipped with active external security cameras for your protection and ours.
**Please note: no hot tub or trash access during your stay.

Private lot in Mt Hood's Rhododendron community, right next to the Sandy River. This is in a small dead end residential neighborhood, mixed with full time residences and mountain cabin rentals. Camp 15 does not have any water or bathroom facility and is dry camp only. Power is however, available. Pack it in, pack it out. Great for small campers. Within 15 minutes of Government Camp and Timberline Lodge.

This was the perfect spot to take the dogs and teardrop camper. The short walk to the water makes for a great trip. The camp host was very responsive and the land is beautiful. I’d highly recommend this spot!

The location is very pleasant. It is a ways on from Mt Hood village though.
