Otter Pond Riverfront Getaway

Welcome to Otter Pond on the Toutle River! A gateway to Mt. St Helens. Our property is approximately 42 miles from Johnston Ridge Observatory (unfortunately closed at this time ) and 13.5 miles from I-5. Relax with the birds, deer, eagles, ducks, geese, rabbits, neighboring cows, beavers and otters that pass through now and then. 

You have acres to enjoy! Like your own mini campground. Half of our acreage is across the river-summertime is a great time to cross and explore! You can even walk up river and tube down.

1,000 feet of riverfront, a pond, horse shoe pit, shooting range, charcoal grill, and 3 different fire pits for you to explore. If you are over 6'1 you will ruin your hairdo in the trailer! Also, if you don't like bugs, snakes, spiders, deer, otters, beavers, mice, chickens, including roosters etc....you won't be a happy camper :-)

We live on the neighboring property, but respect your privacy. 

We look forward to sharing our space with you! Please note that there is a pond and river with a slippery bank full of rocks on this property. The river is a short 5 minute walk.

Tennis shoes/river shoes highly advised.

Please note we are 10 miles from the nearest food/gas services. Please plan accordingly. Cell service is best with AT&T.

Well house is open and has outside games, a couple of life jackets, cooler, and misc things for you to use. Please leave the light on.

Bring your own towels or add it as an extra!

Slow Boat Farm - Island Camping

Slow Boat Farm started as a 10-cow dairy in the 1930s. The modified farmhouse still stands and the base of the silo is now a fire ring. The Lower Columbia Kayak Roundup (LoCo) was hosted from 2007 through 2011. There have only been four owners of the property.

Learn more about this land:

Wide open spaces, kayak launch, and small-scale farming form a unique culture at Slow Boat Farm. Camp on Puget Island, in a peaceful, pastoral setting with views of the hills and cliffs on both sides of the river. Fire ring is available year round regardless of fire bans.  A large grassy field offers ample space, and a private kayak launch is a short walk through a cottonwood forest.

You will enjoy a private camp spot with shade or open space, where we can accommodate multiple vehicles. 

Slow Boat Farm is a large meadow, five acres of grass and wide open spaces to view the gorge cliffs.  Camping is available May through September 30.

We have horses to brush, ride and feed. You may also see a dog, cat and free-range chickens. Did I happen to mention that we have a pet pig? Yes, Miss Piggy!!  We also have an area for pitching tents that sits along our seasonal stream; usually live from Nov. thru June.We are all about the animals and hoping to create wonderful memories for you and your family.

We setup our campsite right next to the beautiful horses.

Peace on Earth

When you visit our little "piece" on Earth we hope you feel the "peace" we do.  After spending many years living in the city, we found a place where we feel the calm and solitude we've been wanting and needing for a long time. Now, we want to share it with you.  A 10-acre "piece" of "peace" on Earth.  Come join us for a day or two.  

A Visitors Haven

We would love to share our beautiful wooded 8 acres. We live here but your site is far enough from our house for privacy. The RV pad is surrounded by trees. Our RV space will easily park a 38ft.  RV.  It has full hookups with either 30 amp or 50-amp power. You are only 2 miles from shopping and only miles from Lackamas Lake and Battleground Lake for hiking, swimming, biking, boating and fishing. Down the road about 1/4 mile is Velvet Acres barn where you can buy fresh produce in July, August and September, then in October it's a Pumpkin Patch.

Be sure while you’re here you visit Vancouvers waterfront downtown. Great shops and excellent places to eat. On weekends there’s a large farmers market that has all kinds of fresh produce.

While here be sure to drive out to the gorge, it is one of the more breathtaking sites in the NW. We are 10 miles from the Columbia River and 36 miles from Multnomah Falls. On a nice day you can drive to the beach to cool off, it's about 90 miles to Longbeach.

Being in the wetlands we have a lot of trees for privacy. The RV area is at the end of an area that is gated for security. There is a grassy area outside your door and a grassy area out back of your RV. We have trails you are welcome to use. You will see bunnies and all kinds of birds as well as deer that visit now and then. Although they have built homes on the west side the fence and trees give plenty of privacy. They recently started a home that should be done within a month. Contact me for updates.

This is a perfect place if visiting the area or it’s a great place for snowbirds or workers that are in this area for weeks or months. Text me ahead for openings.

Please email me about exceptions on dogs weight and group size.

As private as this is, you’re only 2 miles from shopping.
