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.

Beautiful spot! We had the whole thing to ourselves, but there could have been many more campers as the sites are spread out all around the perimeter of the field, with lots of cozy nooks to set up camp in.

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.

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

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.

The Landing was a quiet and beautiful getaway out of the city. We enjoyed having plenty of room to spread out and privacy from other campers. Seeing some deer visitors was an added delight. We will be staying here again and would recommend to others.

We had a wonderful time at the PNW Landing campsite! We stayed in the Landing Cove area and there was a great view down the runway to some of the Cascade peaks. The camp owners were incredibly nice and responsive. The bathroom onsite was small but clearly very well maintained and frequently serviced. The campsites were spacious and you had plenty of room next to your neighbors. It was lovely to walk around the camp too, there's a delightful patch of wildflowers and some nice relaxing paths through the woods. Can't recommend this site enough!

This was an incredible first Hipcamp experience and the location is such a quick drive from the city! The property was absolutely beautiful, and our spot in sunrise meadow was the perfect level of privacy while still being close to the bathroom! The hosts provided very helpful tips prior to check in and the property was easy to navigate once we found it! Heads up to others - Google Maps took us to the wrong side of the land but Apple Maps routed us to the correct entrance using the coordinates! 10/10 will stay here again!

Luckily we got spots booking a week before Labor day. The land was vast, with clear views of the meadow and the spots were generously spread out. The directions to the site were pretty clear and with a picnic table and fire pits to mark the spots. Our site group had meadows to the east and tall trees to the west. By the time you check in, you would have good shade, but enjoy a nice unobstructed view of sunrise in the morning. Among the four spots, only one of them was completely under canopy, while the rest three were bordering tall trees. The bathroom was decent, with flush toilets and showers. Overall we had a relaxing quick getaway from the city and would definitely return again

Jenel and Khohay were very nice. The farm looks amazing! The communal area is super cute and cozy and the camp spot on the field with the animals was even and soft. I love the concept of self-sustainability that they follow. They had free farm fresh eggs and produce and were reachable at any minute while we were there. Very supportive and friendly communication. Thank you for having us!

We loved camping here! We were on site Kronos & it was very spacious for our group of 7 plus 2 dogs; we had 4 tents, a canopy & a stand alone hammock & it accommodated us perfectly. The walk to the river was very short & the access point we had was beautiful. We hope to be back next year!

The space was beautiful, quiet, and large. We were a little worried that there wouldn’t be much privacy because of it being a meadow, but there were plenty of cozy sites to choose from while still feeling like we had our own space. The host was out tending to the grounds when we got there and was always quick to respond. The bathroom was by far one of the nicest I’ve ever seen at a campsite - there was even a shower. We will definitely be planning to come back.
