Didn't know you could milk a sheep? Or thought only cows made cheese? Come find out how it's done on this seasonal working ranch here in Eastern Oregon. Lambs are born in the spring and their moms are milked all summer long. I raise my sheep on fresh grass and sunshine. Come see for yourself here on the ranch. Pitch a tent on the pasture and literally count the sheep around you before falling asleep or climb the hill and see for miles in every direction. We may be close to the road, but it doesn't feel like it. We can accommodate campers, RVs, trucks, tents, and vans. 4 sites to chose from. Each site has access to a toilet, potable water, shower, picnic tables, trash disposal, and we allow campfires (outside of burn bans), and pets. We also sell fresh eggs, firewood, and lamb sausage. Our guests love staying with us: "There’s fireside fun in fresh country air, rolling hills around the farm to walk along to enjoy the wide expansive view, and sights and sounds of animals around camp to make for a relaxing day. There’s kittens, dairy sheep, gigantic but friendly herd dogs, and a variety of chickens and ducks. The host was kind and friendly. Try the sheep’s milk cheese - what a treat!"

3 nights at Nadja's Hideway

Private and quiet lower camp despite the nearby road. Zero mosquitos. Nadja was a fantastic and authentic host, even gave us baked apricot strudel and extra veggies from her garden! A herd of deer and some wild turkeys came through. We would definitely stay with her again! Note: If you have a dog, keep them near your tent/camper as it is the time of year for burrs. Our dog was covered with them.

This is more than a normal, boring campground. Below the surface there’s a lot going on here so this is a good destination for the curious. When Walt asks if you have any questions, ask. I stayed during 94-degree heat. A burn ban was in effect, which I suspect is common for this dry area. Check before you book if that’s important to you. There was also a usable stove on the spot. There is a working shower with warm water, which is nice. It was very, very quiet.

We had a wonderful time staying at Terry’s farm. Getting to help herd and milk the sheep was a great experience! Our kids loved bottle feeding several lambs and I enjoyed my early morning conversation with Terry about life as a small-scale farmer. We hope to get back there soon!

We got to milk sheep, eat some incredible homemade ice cream, pet the cute farm dogs and sleep under the stars. This was truly a 10/10 experience and we can’t wait to come back with our friends!

4 nights at Nadja's Hideway

We really enjoyed our stay at this campsite. It was clean and spacious with plenty of room for our dog to run around. It is surrounded by beautiful oak trees and since the leaves hadn’t come in yet, there was plenty of sunlight, 0which was great for keeping our solar panels charged. There is a big opening to 0 sky so you would still get some good sun and views even with the trees filled in. Nadja was really nice and helpful, making sure we had what we needed. She was super thoughtful and provided a ton of good suggestions and even let us borrow bug spray for our dog for hiking. Currently, water is available at the top of the driveway. We have a 20ft trailer and were able to manage it without any issues. But Nadja did mention she may be bring a hose down to the site. There was a bit of road noise during the day, but it wasn’t constant and was much quieter than the main roads. At night, the site was pretty quiet and very peaceful. It’s a beautiful spot and we had a comfortable and relaxing stay. It was a great place to hang out at and a nice location for surrounding hikes.

We had a fantastic visit at the farm. You can basically pick your spot to camp. We chose the more private area but I think that's what makes this place special. Want a weekend filled with all the animals? Go for it. Want some alone time out in the country with no distractions? Have at it. Terry is a great host with a ton of spunk. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

We had an incredible time camping at Tin Willows farm. Terry is very welcoming and kind and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels comfortable while staying at her farm. We were lucky enough to feed the lambs every day and help shear her sheep. It’s such a fun camping experience for families. Can’t recommend it enough! Thank you Terry!

We love staying at the sheep farm. This trip in late November was laid back as the milking was done for the season and most of the sheep off to their winter pasture. There were still cows and ducks and chickens and dogs and guinea fowl to enjoy and the morning community fire was most welcome in the winter chill. Terry is a great host and responds quickly to any needs that arise. She's very welcoming and really makes you feel part of the farm activities.
