The campsite came with chairs, a picnic table and a fire pit. They had wood for sale and buckets for putting out the fire as well. The outhouse was clean and they had a spigot with well water nearby. Fern gully was so cute. I would definitely come back. I did peak at the other sites too and sun-kissed meadow was just so beautiful. Highly recommend.

The hosts are super nice. There was an issue and they came right down to deal with it. That's greatly appreciated. The property is beautiful and well kept. The campsites are large and well maintained. There was some garbage that somebody had left behind but we picked that up and took care of it.

We had a great time at Fern Gully. It felt very private despite a couple other campsites on the property, and the directions and signage made it easy to find. The toilet was very clean. It rained super hard during our stay but the trees overhead kept the site much dryer than it could have been.

Weekend Trip to Majestic Meadows
Great spot for a group! We were able to spread out tents and let kids roam and play. Hosts were very nice and offered to give kids a ride in 4-wheeler and showed us their cool property and fig trees. Great spot for a close to seattle little camping trip, especially for kids to run free and play! They loved the tree swings. There were quite a few ants, but they didn’t bother us much, we just tried to pick tent spots not right on their (ant) highways or (ant) neighborhoods.

We stayed three nights at Majestic Meadows (Fern Gully). The campgrounds are spacious, clean, and quiet. The hosts were friendly and accessible via message. We did have some issues with finding the place via GPS, so just note that you might have to pull over and re-enter the address. It is right behind the fire station, which makes for a convenient landmark.
I would recommend the site for folks who are looking for a mellow and quiet place to camp.
Things to note:
1) The campsite is right behind a fire station, so you will occasionally hear sirens. This didn't bother us, and it wasn't constant.
2) If you're squeamish about outhouses, you might want to consider that this is a vault-type toilet. It is maintained, but on hotter days it may be odiferous.
3) If you're camping with kids, there are at least two decent playgrounds nearby. One is in downtown Orting (right across from an ice-cream shop). There's also one just outside Orting.
4) It looked like three out of four of the sites had a good amount of shade (I can say this is true for Fern Gully). The weather was pleasant while we were there, but Fern Gully has a slight slope, so you might want to be conscious of that while setting up your camp.

This location is great if you want the convenience of being near a town with supplies and groceries just a few mins away. It’s a pretty spot. I think it’s a great place to bring kids. There is a lake about 10 minutes away where you can go fishing… As far as swimming, I think the nearest lake may be about 30 minutes away. The hosts were awesome and super accommodating.

We enjoyed our stay, we came for 3 nights in the middle of July. the space was semi-private, there’s a side road next to our campsite so there were people driving past more often than we expected. the bathroom and water spigot were close, less than a minute to walk there. this spot was shaded and had a nice breeze going through it so we stayed cool even through it was in the 80’s! not too far from grocery stores, etc. we had some trouble finding the site at first from the main road, but once we were on their property it was easy!

We needed a quick place rest before continuing our trip. I appreciated that Jennifer allowed us to come in late. The place is beautiful and has everything you need for a stay, including a quick one.

Amazing place and amazing hosts! This campground was perfect for getting away. Cozy, well kept, and safely tucked away on a private property.
Good amount of distance between the campsites as well!

Great location not too far from Mt. Rainier and close to stores as well. The serenity Grove site was really nice, very clean, and the trees did make it feel more secluded and private. The toilet, wood, and water were very close by and kept clean as well. Jennifer was very responsive over messaging as well and very helpful.

Jennifer was absolutely fantastic ! This property is beautiful and easy to navigate ! Its very quiet and peaceful. You are not super close to the other camping sites at all so you have a good amount of privacy ! The composite toilet was very well maintained and clean ! We saw bunnies, baby chick's, and deer ! There is an electrical hookup and water spout beside the composite toilet that you have access to ! The fore pit and picnic table was nice to have as well ! We stayed on the Fern Gully site ! It was the site on the left end of the 4 sites and was awesome ! We will definitely recommend and would stay again !

Very private. Very friendly host. We were the only campers on the property and we had a wonderful time. The site is spacious and lush with flowers and trees. There was firewood conveniently available nearby under a shed for a few dollars. Bring cash for that :)

A nice spot for a spontaneous car camping getaway. The amenities are minimal, but the picnic table, fire pit, well, and clean composting toilet are great to have. Our spot was slightly closer to neighbors than we realized, which wasn’t a problem, just an fyi that if you’re looking for more private spots, these are sort of in between. We also had a hard time finding the location via GPS, even with the additional instructions from the host. We noticed later that someone had put a pin on Google maps for one of the sites (Fern Gully), so if you type that in, you may have even better luck!

We loved the spot so much! It was very spacious and cute! Lots of firewood available for purchase and it was nice to have a bathroom nearby. The only downfall was it was a bit difficult to find without an address. It would be helpful to post which fire station it is next to. Overall, it was great!

Great Spot!
Jennifer was responsive and accommodating. We took some friends that were first time campers and they loved it.
Close to Walmart if you forget any last minute items.
