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.

Quiet, no really quiet. My wife and I slept so well here. No squirrels chattering or acorns falling on the roof. Very pleasant rain forest valley experience.
Things we weren't prepared for upon first arrival: 1. Perpendicular approach to the site from the road with narrow shoulders, took 17 tries but that's probably on me. 2. Fairly steep pad, 2" side slope, a much as a foot low at the hitch. 3. No Verizon service, download something to watch or read at camp.
Once we were set up for the site and had something to watch in the evenings, we had a great time. The trifecta of services, power, water, and sewer, are right at the back of the driver's side. Perfect layout. Thanks for the great weekend spot, Andy!

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.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at this beautiful property. It was great to have so much privacy, a really gorgeous setting, and good amenities. The bathrooms were very clean and nicely decorated. We made fabulous memories sitting along the river and enjoying the scenery and solitude. The owner is great at communication and has done a wonderful job to make this a welcoming space. We hope to return!

My partner and I were in Cle Elum for a wedding and this was the perfect spot for a night away! We wanted to be close enough to the venue while also getting to spend a night in our tent (our favorite summer activity). Having the shed to provide some convenience for getting ready was wonderful and the porta potty on the property was the nicest I’ve ever been in. Felt totally fresh with no smell! Waking up under the trees is my favorite and this spot provided just that :)

Great for the night. We were fishing so we got there late and left early. No fuss no muss. Deep in a very quiet hollow. No wind no noise. Woke up to deer roaming thru

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 had an amazing time at this hip camp. Plenty of privacy and space. Centrally located for us since we wanted to spend time in Cle Elum and at Lake Kachess. Highly recommend. They even provided us with extra parking fir our boat. Like said prior brings lots of water.

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.

40 ft Class A
With kids
Very peaceful. Set about 15 minutes back from US-12 along a curvy, slim road. In a Class A 40', this road and entry were a bit tricky. As stated by host, the site is angled uphill and we were unable to level, but still slept just fine. The site is very private with full hookups, picnic table and fire pit. Andy came and made sure we were situated and then let us alone to our privacy. If visiting Rainier and Mt St Helen, realize that you can visit the northeast side of MSH near Packwood (a town enroute to MR).

My family loved how private the lot felt but also how many nearby lake options we had! The cozy loft/cabin was a hit with our teenager, as he loves to watch DVD's. We had an amazing time!

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!
