The current owners purchased the farm fall of 2023 from a family estate that owned it since the 1970s. It is considered a legacy project as work progresses to Firewise the land in support of old growth native trees and maximum summer shade for salmon. During the 2025 grazing season, the NE pasture of 5 acres along the river fed 8 Katahdin Sheep. In Spring 2026, bison, cattle, and goats will be moving into the SE pasture of 7 acres that climbs the mountain along the west border.

Weekend Trip to Camp River Run

The property is set up nicely with 2 spots. Site A is the easier set up given the location of the elctrical outlet and ease of backing in the trailer. We had the site to ourselves, so this review is based on that. There is plenty of space for yard games, we played a lot of bocce ball, frisbee, kicked a soccer ball around and hung out by the fire for some serious rounds of Uno. The fire bowl is large and offers a great setting near the river. A Bald Eagle graced our presence hovering over the river which was a cool visual. The outhouse has a heat lamp which is suitable for a cold night and made doing the business more comfortable than expected. A very clean site overall. Only down side is the location is right off the hwy, so raod noise is a thing if that bothers you. Also, do not follow google maps, it will take you down Braeburn Rd way past the site. Turning a trailer around was a challenge. As you pull off the hwy onto Braeburn, the lot is the first left. Way easy to find, I was just stuck to maps, so more of a human error. If you take this spot, you will enjoy it.

Weekend Trip to Camp River Run

The fall foliage is gorgeous this time of year and the river made a beautiful backdrop. Porta potty was clean and had a nice heat lamp. Easy in and out for a 31' RV. A little weird having the owners come and go putting stuff in the shed while there. I wouldn't want to stay here if the other site is booked, they're not private at all. Very well kept, beautiful!

3 nights at Twisp River Rustic Campground

Booked a last minute weekend to hike the north cascades for fall colors and larch trees, and figured this place was the perfect location, and a bonus being dog friendly with a nice little field to let my dog run. A couple things to note about the property though, for the price: there is no bathroom, and all three campsites on the property are really close to the highway, so road noise is constant (but wasn’t really too hard to sleep). I actually decided to stay at the snow park down the street one of the nights, to be closer to the trailhead and have a bathroom nearby (for free)

Big campsite with great views and lots of tables and fire pits. I was under the impression it was just a big field that was a free for all, but it was in fact an actual campground with all the things you need. We camped here for a night after all the first come first serve campsites near Maple Loop Trail were taken up. It was about 45 min away. I would love to come back in summer and actually hang in the lake and stay at the campsite longer to explore the area.

1 night at Twisp River Rustic Campground

This is the a very clean, level, easy to access and a short distance to Twisp. We selected the first camp and it was easy to setup our Class B RV. We live out in the country ourselves and so load noises camping is avoided. I share this due to the road is not that far from the first camp but the traffic even on a Sunday was very light, not a problem. The most impressive feature is how well this Hipcamp is taken care of. It is nice to park on a green lawn. The camp should win an award for the best camp. We hit Twisp for a bike ride around town, and found that on a Sunday 3pm is closing time for some stores.

Thank you for a peaceful night of rest, the road gets quiet at night and we were able to have a relaxing morning as well. Perfect spot to start our North Cascades trip✌🏽

2 nights at Chewack River Guest Ranch

Christine’s land was perfect for a quiet getaway. It is on a farm, so you do hear animals from a far distance. It was not annoying whatsoever. Plenty of room for larger tents or even multiple tents. The river access was really nice for sitting next to with a cocktail or early morning coffee. The toilet is a little bit of a walk, but I always bring my own.

Awesome spot! Really quiet and spacious. We had a minor issue when we arrived but Mariah responded to my message and had it taken care of promptly. We brought our own toilet set-up and my friend was kindly informed by staff that the tasting room bathroom isn’t encouraged for campers. There is an outhouse nearby though. Willow Point is a great place to go for a swim in Lake Chelan and is a 9 min drive from the site.

Beautiful site! Tracy is so kind. She checked on us daily to see if we needed anything. The tent site is beautiful, soft, and sheltered. The river is absolutely magical. The stars are unmatched. And her dog is just the best. 10/10 spot :)

3 nights at PHILVILLE RV AND CABINS

We spent three nights at Phil’s place and it was so relaxing. Sitting in the river was what our family needed after a busy summer. Phil is very friendly and we definitely recommend a stay at Philville!

Very beautiful view from the site, quiet away from roads. Sunrises and sunsets very peaceful. Mariah responsive re finding the spot in the orchards when we arrived. We had no trouble with wind at night as others have mentioned. No mosquitoes but flies were significant at times making us glad to have a screen. Overall a very nice spot and we will surely come back to visit again.
