Horses Welcome with no extra charge (bring your own corral). Plenty of space to ride.
Come and enjoy the big sky and open spaces on our Central Washington homestead. From your campsite, you will be able to sit and enjoy the breathtaking sunsets and view of the Cascade Mountains to the West. At night you will only need to look up into the sky to clearly spot millions of stars. You will also be given farm fresh eggs to enjoy with a meal.
On our homestead, you will see chickens and goats. If in season, you can explore the garden. Enjoy the walking trail right on our property or ride your bikes. Kids will have plenty of room to run, play, and picnic. Children are also welcome to set up their own tent for a night of parent-free fun.
Make sure to check out all the extras we offer by clicking on a campsite for those details. From feeding and cuddling goats to star gazing with cocoa.
There is plenty of space if you bring your equestrian friends with you. Just bring your portable corral with you. :)
With a short drive, you will find seasonal hunting, fishing, biking, hiking (Beezley Hill) , lakes, golf, mini golf, water park, bowling, and a good selection of restaurants. There are also two Walmarts nearby for any of your needs.
A little farther and you will find natural pools at Potholes State Park, Soap Lake, Coulee Dam, and Lake Lenore Caves.
Interesting fact: Our homestead is located on the McConihe Flats. 1200 years ago the Sinkiuse Indians would meet on the McConihe Flats and trade. They would also collect things along the shore of the lake such, as duck eggs and reeds, which are still around today.
We are conveniently located between Moses Lake and Ephrata Washington. Only 12 minutes from either town where you can find Walmart, other stores, and resturants for all your needs.

Stay in a place where history fuels adventure! Once an early 1900s fuel depot, this rare landmark has been thoughtfully reimagined as a rustic campsite. Explore a relic of Americana by day, then gather by the fire under starry skies at night. More than a stopover, it’s a place where the past lingers in the air, and every guest becomes part of its story.

They communicated with us very well, giving clear instructions on how to get there and what to expect. The land was beautiful and we were able to get a good nights rest, as we were just passing through! The out house was cool and clean. We would definitely stay there again!

Hauntingly serene and remote location in the basalt columned scablands of Eastern Washington on the unrestored portion of a family ranch in the Crab Creek bottoms. Interesting historic barns and structures with cool vintage retired machinery. It’s a new HipCamp and will likely get some improvements, like signage and some tidying of the immediate grounds and perhaps more detail in the listing. There’s only one hookup spot, so if it’s taken, you’ll be dry camping. But the host was amenable to getting some distance from the other guest while I was there. The price is very reasonable. The region has so few camping opportunities, I’m grateful they opened up this gem. BNSF trains run by a couple times an hour 200 yards away, but no crossings for miles, so no whistles.

Great place with a beautiful view of the Valley, highly recommend staying at this location, I will be returning. The gift bag upon arrival was a real treat. Has lots of cool and interesting things to do while visiting including some treats. The fresh fruit right beside the camp spot was another great treat and nice to have. This is an active farm so take that into consideration when booking. Extremely respectful people that work on the farm that respect peoples privacy, very friendly work force. Would highly recommend this location, only 7 minute drive to amenities and beach areas.

Absolutely amazing spot! We're traveling across the country this summer and this was by far one of the best. We work from the road and Starlink worked great here. We have a 26' travel trailer and it fit perfectly. I can't imagine anything much bigger driving down the narrow dirt roads and getting up the little hill to the spot, but if you can get there, you definitely should. We can't wait to come back!

Beautiful and private, we had an incredible time at site #1. We will definitely be back.
Note for those towing a trailer there is a turn up a gravel hill that could be a problem for larger rigs. But I had it with a 20 ft trailer no problem and I am brand new to towing.

So, let me begin with the view…AMAZING! The drive in was breathtaking.
The spots give you space between any other campers. Like lot of space. Yes, you must go to the winery. The way Renato shares about the wines, his story and the land. You are transported to a magical place. The wine is also unique- just go.
If you want to go into town, just a short drive. You want to explore there are trails.
We clearly had not been camping in a while and forgot our converter for the electric plug in. We didn’t have a camper, we were tenting it. We had our mattress to inflate. Rookie move. If you are familiar with the eastern part of the state, you know it can get breezy - made it for a comedy or errors putting up tent. Lots of bonding. The nights were amazing we didn’t put our rain covers on and just slept under the stars.
Renato was a very good host. Just like you have read he is there to greet you and give the lay of the land. We went to tasting room twice. Just as much for the wine as for his stories and learning more about wine.
No matter of camping level, great get away.
You just have to see it to believe it.
