My 30 acre farm has two campsites, (they are not close to each other) both allow pets and campfires (outside of burn bans). One campsite is a beach on the North Fork Stilly, it is shaded most of the time, the sun lovers can paddle with their kayak or wade across to sunbath on an island across the river. tent campers can locate their car or truck on dike and move their supplies on to camping area.. trucks with campers can set up right on dike over looking the stilly. Rigs can set up in the field by the dike!! the outhouse is back for the season!!! The second campsite is on 4 acres you will have to yourself by a creek; Rhodes River Ranch Restaurant is walking distance away to go enjoy dinner; the Whitehorse trail for biking or walking is only a mile away; Enjoy the view of Whitehorse and three fingers mountain. Lake Cavanaugh is nearby, and regional activities include biking, boating, fishing, hiking, , paddling, wind sports, and off-roading. Our guests love staying with us: "Our stay at River Side was wonderful! The campsite is very large, with a picnic table and great little beach area. If you're looking for a nice and easy get-away from the city, especially for larger groups, this is the perfect place! Rhonda is very communicative and a great host. Thanks for sharing your space with us!"

We have 20 wooded acres with clearings for tent camping, 1 glamping tent, and a bunk tent with 4 cot bunks. (8 beds in the bunk tent). There is a rustic toilet with outdoor hot shower and sink facility. We also have a fire pit with outdoor kitchen (no electricity or running water, but it’s fully stocked with dishes, camping stove, and firewood). Town is just a 10-minute walk away with access to the local grocery store, a Mexican restaurant, cafe, and brewery, but the property is so secluded that even locals don’t know we’re here!

5. Whidbey Island Christmas Tree Farm

We are a 20 acre tree farm in the making on beautiful Whidbey Island. The property is rough graded with lots of areas to explore. Close to town for supplies but quiet, and crazy stars at night. We have cleared two of the cedar groves on the south side, and they are perfect campsites. The sites are 75'-100' apart, more private than a state park, but close enough that a bigger group would feel close. Portable Toilet is on site 100' from the Big Cedar site. May through October Cedar Hallow- Our original campsite, sports a hammock, a picnic table, a fire pit, a good area for 2 tents, probably 6 people. The site has huge cedar trees all around so it's filtered sunlight most of the day, & warm in the summer! Big Cedar- Our bigger site. Equipped with a fire pit, a picnic table, hammock, and space for 3-4 tents, probably 12 people comfortably. There is a dirt road that circles the property, it's great for walks and animal viewing but can get muddy in the rain so be prepared. Parking is a gravel lot directly across the little dirt road from the sites. Unload at the site then move to parking as to not block the road. Trucks with campers can pull tight to a site but don't pull into a site please, obey standard fallen tree limb boundaries. I keep a large water tote on-site with hose water for washing dishes or boiling.

Amazing views, secluded but still had neighbors, it wasn’t to far from the little one stop shop if you forgot anything or needed extra firewood.

1 night at Whidbey Island Christmas Tree Farm

Tim’s property is a great place to camp on Whidbey! It’s a quick drive into the town of Freeland. This would be a wonderful place to camp with a big group, reserving multiple sites next to each other. We’ve camped there twice, just two people. It’s easy-peasy to reserve and to get there. Some of the sites have wonderful hammocks and fire pits. Definitely recommend!

This was a lovely, flat site next to the river with a fire pit and lots of trees. It was well-spaced out from the other sites and felt private.

Beautiful site on the river! Backing the trailer on the dike was tricky, but doable, and worth it for the view. Host’s dog made it so fun for our dog, a fellow Aussie!

Great experience here. The campsite is very easy to find, clearly marked. The sites are quite close to each other but there are trees in between to separate. I absolutely love the river, so close to the site. Would recommend to anyone

We loved our stay at Rhonda’s riverfront site! Easy river access, lots of flat tent spots and plenty of room to park cars and a big RV. The dogs loved it and so did the toddler. Will likely come back next year!

Good communication with the host, beautiful location, great camp sites. Compost toilet was great to have, but there were not enough wood chips for all 4 sites. Signage to the site was also difficult for us to find initially.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Farm

Rhonda was very friendly and welcoming. The camp area was gorgeous and had room for whatever activities we wanted to do! We were also visited by her horses on the other side of the stream which provided some light entertainment. Easy in, easy out and totally chill. The view and wide, open area made this weekend the relaxing getaway we needed!
