We have a beautiful camping spot next to a year-round creek, located in the spectacular Pacific Northwest. Nestled in the foothills of the Oregon Coastal Range, this property is teeming with wildlife. The site is surrounded by 100-year-old oaks and Douglas firs, making it a truly picturesque location. Not only is our property peaceful and beautiful, but we are also just 10 minutes from Finley Wildlife Refuge, where you can see white swans, Canadian geese, and a wide range of waterfowl. Alsea Falls, with its hiking trails, old-growth trees, and two magical waterfalls, is only 30 minutes away. You can reach the coast within an hour. A few miles from the property, you’ll find a charming country store for all your needs. We’re also conveniently located for visits to Corvallis or Eugene — both within a 30-minute drive.

We had such a great time camping and staying in the yurt on Jeremy and Dana's land. The yurt is at the back of the property, near a creek and feels private.

Fantastic! We booked last minute and arrived after dark. We had such a comfortable stay, and were in awe of the creek right behind us in the morning light. The bed is incredibly comfy, and we were perfectly comfortable. This place is moments from mine and my kid's favorite place to go catch crawdads. I would absolutely book again.

It was a fine site, especially for the price. A little close to the road for my liking, but the traffic died away and the road was fairly quiet.

It was a nice stay, Dru helped us out with a canopy because it was raining and let us pick black berries to take home off the property. Beautiful area, nice and quiet at night and Dru was very welcoming and good all around host.

Second stay here, perfect for what we needed. Just a quick couple days near Eugene, great access to town. Lovely drive out, clean and spacious site, very accommodating and attentive host! Friendly, but gives plenty of space to enjoy the quiet. 10/10 would stay again. If you decide to book this site and stay on site throughout the day, you will need to bring shade. We were gone both days throughout the day, so was not a problem for us, but does heat up around 10am. Very quiet and peaceful area! Great views of sunrises and moonrises!

Dru was a great host! There’s a nice little clearing down at the end of his driveway, good for a large tent and far enough from the road and house to feel private. Great value!

Our stay at Jeremy and Dana’s place was outstanding! The yurt was super cute and clean, very comfortable bed, and nice deck. The property, the views, and the peacefulness were even better! We walked to the river, enjoyed the sound of the creek behind the yurt, had fires in the fire pit and absolutely loved our stay. Will definitely be back!

What a perfect place to enjoy a beautiful grassy meadow and small stream. We had a camp fire and enjoyed a long walk along the Alsea River in the moring. We loved the goats and bought some damn good garlic. We will be back!

Great stay at Dru's site! He was accommodating but gave us plenty of space to relax. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and the variety of birds around is fantastic! We saw deer several times in the mornings, and even had enough space for my kids to play in the site. 10/10 would recommend! Very safe location.

Our stay was exactly what we were looking for in our group gathering. Having the creek behind the yurt balanced out the hot, direct sun in afternoons and no bugs at night was excellent. Our host was welcoming and accommodating and helped us thoroughly enjoy our time

Weekend Trip to Squared Roots Farm Yurt

Such a great stay!! The yurt was very secluded right next to the creek. Our pups had the BEST time being able to be off-leash without worry. I was initially worried the farm animals would be close by (and one of our dogs is a herding dog who I wouldn’t trust lol), but they were far enough away that we were worry free! We were able to visit them though, the goats were SO cute and friendly. The bed was seriously SO comfortable, I had to take a picture of the mattress before we left! The composting outhouse was super clean. The whole property was just amazing and we had the best time! Also super close to Alsea for some great hiking and mountain biking. We will certainly come back!

Great little tiny house cabin with all the essentials! We got in late, and were a little nervous arriving, but the host left the lights on for us and everything was easy to find and locate. Our dog enjoyed running around the yard, and the outdoor shower was great!
