Wake up in the woods to fresh espresso pulled by certified baristas — yes, really.
Forest Farm is a cozy camp tucked into 50 private acres of lush PNW forest, lovingly tended as part of our work as sustainable forest stewards and farmers.
Great for couples, friends, and families with kids ages 7 and up. Our forest trails, hidden swing set, fire ring, and resident dragon make for the kind of woodland magic that kids love. Have a younger one? We consider littler adventurers on a case-by-case basis — just message us before booking.
Working remotely? Trade your home office for the forest. With strong cell signal, reliable wifi, device charging, and a covered common area that makes a surprisingly good outdoor desk, Basecamp works beautifully as a weekday workation — deep-focus days among the trees, barista-made espresso instead of the office machine, and trails to wander on your lunch break. Ask us about midweek and extended stays.
Just a short hop from the Seattle ferry, spend your days exploring charming Kitsap towns, kayaking the shoreline, beachcombing, or chasing the bioluminescence tours at Port Gamble — then come home to the quiet of the trees. Or simply slow down: wander the trails, find the swing set hidden like a secret, gather around the fire ring, and gaze up at a sky full of stars.
Stay at Basecamp, our pair of charming wooden A-frame cabins near the farmstead, with common area, pellet stove, hammock, and fire ring all to yourself. Add our optional morning coffee service — guests say it makes the stay feel more like a rustic B&B than a campsite.
Feeling adventurous? Venture into our back 40, where secluded clearings, creek access, and winding trails wait to be explored.
Good to know: portable toilet, potable water, sink, and charging stations provided. Bring your camp basics and a sense of wonder.

Escape the hustle and bustle without losing the convenience of town. Our 7-acre property in Poulsbo offers a private, spacious field perfect for those looking to unplug. Separated from the main homestead by a natural pond and landscape, you’ll enjoy the peace and quiet you crave while staying centrally located to everything the Kitsap Peninsula has to offer.
The Location
Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or attending an event, you’re perfectly positioned:
• 12 minutes to Silverdale
• 12 minutes to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds
• 16 minutes to the charm of downtown Poulsbo (“Little Norway”)
The Space
Your journey to the campsite begins at our front farmstand. You’ll enter the property here and head back through the field toward your private site.
• The Drive: To reach the site, you’ll drive through the field directly from the main road. There is no paved road to the site, so please book only if you are comfortable driving across uneven field terrain.
• Privacy and Sound: The camping area backs up to a road. While it is not a major highway, you may occasionally hear passing vehicles. However, the site is tucked behind a natural screen of trees and bushes, ensuring privacy from the road while you relax.
• Nature & Wildlife: The nearby pond is a beautiful feature of the property, though it does attract mosquitoes—bringing bug spray is highly recommended. You may also see us working in the garden or spending time with our chickens and dogs.
Campground Rules & Safety
• Dry Camping: This is a primitive, “dry” site with no bathrooms or hookups.
• Pack It In, Pack It Out: We take pride in our land—please respect the property by removing all trash when you leave.
• Pets: We love dogs! However, because our dogs live on-site and the field is not fenced, all guest dogs must remain on a leash at all times.
What to Bring
• A self-contained camping setup (van, truck camper, or tent)
• Plenty of water and a waste plan
• Bug spray for pond-side evenings
• A vehicle capable of navigating grass/dirt terrain

State park 608mi from Poulsbo · 2 sites
Manchester State Park features a beach, sand dunes, and flat grasslands, with nearly 18,000 feet of ocean frontage. The beach line curves gently to form a "catch basin" for sea debris, which accounts for the volume of driftwood found here. Five miles of gentle, sandy beach stretches southward towards the Point Arena Lighthouse.
One of the main attractions is the excellent steelhead fishing in the park’s two streams, Brush Creek and Alder Creek. The park features a variety of coastal wildflowers, including sea pinks, poppies, lupines, baby blue eyes and blue irises. The park provides habitat for tundra swans. The San Andreas Fault runs into the sea at the park.
The park takes its name from the village of Manchester, which is located in Mendocino County on Coast Highway 1 about seven miles north of Point Arena.
This is an area of rich grazing lands, flocks of sheep and herds of cattle which add a pastoral note to some of the most spectacular coastal scenery in the world.

Welcome to Tranquil Acres. We have transformed our five acres in the “Pearl of the Peninsula” for the world to be your oyster during your stay with us. The Big Quilcene river is a water wonderland with private riverside access available to all campers just a short easy walk from each campsite. Here is where you can enjoy the cooling relief from the Summer heat, bask in the sun on cool Spring days, listen to the soothing sounds of the water and wildlife, interact with fellow campers, as well as fishing for Coho salmon in the Fall for a full meal deal experience. (Fishing license required). The river access “Common Area” is for all campers to enjoy with plenty of space to also have some alone time. If you are a more adventurous camper, Tranquil Acres is perfectly located to be your “home base” for extended stays, allowing you to explore the many wonders that the Olympic Peninsula has to offer as easy day trips. We are happy to answer any questions and share some of our favorite hikes, lakes, restaurants, and historical areas we have loved over these many years.
My family has lived in this area since the early 80's and after almost a decade of renting this property and becoming a part of the amazing community of Quilcene, I had the opportunity to buy this land and “pay it forward” by creating Tranquil Acres for all to enjoy. My children that grew up here, continue to help and support this endeavor as adults. “It’s a King Thing”.
Camping Etiquette: **Please read before booking**
First and foremost, the road leading down to the camping area is a steep gravel drive. Going down isn’t usually a problem…it’s getting back up again. When you get to the bottom, the rest of the roadway leading to all campsites is a natural dirt road with tree root humps that isn’t designed for low clearance cars. AWD or 4WD is recommended, but please check with us before booking to see if your vehicle can have access all the way to your campsite and make it back up the hill. If not, we do have parking available at the top of the hill safely located next to our house, and transport options available to help you pack it in and pack it out without risking damage to your vehicle or the land and still enjoy a wonderful camping experience. Please inquire before booking if you have a low clearance vehicle so we can discuss your options.
Please be respectful of the land. We are a “pack it in, pack it out” campground and wish to provide this space for folks to enjoy for many years to come. The Quilcene transfer station is located nearby and is open on Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday. (hours may differ on holidays). We do offer waste disposal as an add-on at checkout. Recycling must be separated from solid waste and contained in the bags provided and will have clear instructions of what is recyclable.
Potable water is not available in the camping area. It is okay to use water from the river if you have a certified filter system (at your own risk). If you are the bold and brave that likes to bathe in cold waters, please be mindful of the eco-system and the damage that soap can do to our natural habitat. Dishwashing is not allowed in the river at any time.
Like most campgrounds, our quiet time is 10pm-8am. Please be respectful to your camp neighbors at all times. Sounds carry easily in the woods. Play, explore, have fun, and stay awake to enjoy your space for as long as you want, just be mindful to use “camping voice” after 10pm.
Communication is encouraged and appreciated! If you need anything, are having any issues with fellow campers, or just have a question… please don’t hesitate to get in touch… day or night. We love being able to share this wonderful land for folks to have a joyful camping experience in our neck of the woods with their fellow campers.
Dogs are allowed at all campsites. Cats too if you have a camping cat! Please be mindful of your neighbors and that not everyone feels comfortable around dogs or may be allergic. Off leash is allowed if your dog is not aggressive with humans or other dogs. You know your dog best, and we will trust that you will use your best judgement in any circumstance while you are staying with us. If there is an issue in this regard, we will ask you to keep your dog leashed at all times, or under extreme circumstances may be forced to ask you to leave. We would rather not do either of those things, so please be aware of where your pet is at all times.
Everyone loves a campfire! No one loves a wildfire. The lushness of the Olympic National Forest can be deceiving. Wildfires do still happen here and we expect you to extinguish your fire if no one is at the campsite, before going to sleep, and prior to departure. Firewood is provided as an add-on at checkout and will be at your site when you arrive, or you are also welcomed to bring your own. You will need to provide your own paper and flame to get your campfire going. There are many small sticks and twigs around every site to use as kindling, but please don’t use any wood you find on the land that won’t entirely fit inside of the rock ring. This is dangerous because wood holds heat and can continue to burn and ignite leaves, sticks and twigs outside of the firepit. If it is windy at any point during your stay, we respectfully request that you don’t have a fire while the winds are blowing. You can see if there is a recreational fire burn ban prior to arrival by visiting www.orcaa.org or send us a message. It is rare that recreational fires are banned in this area, but it does happen on occasion. Burning any kind of garbage in your campfire is not allowed at any time. Doing so means it is no longer a recreational fire and could permanently stop us from allowing campers to stay here.
We offer a variety of add-on features that can turn your camping adventure into a glamping experience. Need a tent? No problem, we will even set it up for you and take it down. Don’t have a stove to cook with? We have that too. When we say: “It’s a King Thing”… it means we intend to provide you with an experience that leaves you feeling like Royalty.
Thank you for taking the time to consider us for your camping adventures. We are thrilled and grateful to share our Tranquil Acres with you and look forward to seeing you soon!

The rainforest eco system of this area is truly an adventure worth exploring, and our Tranquil Acres has all the native trees and plants of this unique region that makes it feel like you are living in the heart of a rainforest…but with less rain, and slightly warmer temperatures than the central and western side of the Olympic rainforest in the summer.
LAKES: Lake Leland Lake and Crocker Lake are the nearest most accessible lakes in the area. There are many others, please feel free to ask about any lakes you find in the area and I can let you know if it is suitable for what you are wanting from a lake experience.
RIVER, STREAM OR CREEK: Tranquil Acres is located on the Big Quilcene River. It’s beautiful and most of the time secluded (except during salmon season in September when there are fisherfolks that have public access to the river itself). There are many other rivers in the general area, but none quite as awesome as our little stretch of the Big Quilcene.
SWIMMING HOLE: Yes, various options at different times of the year…and It’s COLD! Bring a float device for a gentler experience in the hot summer sun or have a bold and brave Polar Plunge regardless of what month it is. (AT YOUR OWN RISK, please be mindful of how strong the river current is at different times of the year and do not let young children into the main current without a life jacket or without adult supervision. Highly recommended to wear water shoes at all times/all ages.) The Big Quilcene is a River that anyone could slip and fall on the rocks regardless of age and how low the water is.
WATERFALL: The Falls View loop trail just a few miles south of Quilcene is an easy 1 mile hike that has a spectacular view of the large waterfall that flows into the Big Quilcene River. I am happy to talk with you and answer any questions you may have about local adventures in the area.
MOUNTAINOUS: Mt. Olympus reigns supreme over them all, but the Olympic Mountain Range has 9 other distinct Mountain peaks, and there are a variety of ways to experience this unique mountain range…just ask me how, I am happy to share the variety of ways to enjoy the Olympic Peninsula.
FARMS: We have multiple organic farms in the area where you can purchase seasonal fruits and vegetables. There are also many community activities at various times of the year to get to know this little Pearl of the Peninsula.

Forest camping with a salmon stream. 10 acres of permaculture and mycology includes granite fire pits and loop trails with dispersed sites for tents, vans and truck campers. Enjoy a private island with a naturist beach. Bbq and disc golf basket. Hammocking trees at the viewpoint. Make campfire connections and find yourself here.
Guests love it here: "We stayed two nights at Curley Creek Canyon and loved the experience! Jerrett was a wonderful host and met us upon arrival with great recommendations of places to explore on his beautiful property. The camp sites are clean, private, and have fire pits, and benches provided. We took the roped trail down to the creek (bring gloves it’s a bit steep) and saw large groups of salmon swim upstream. This time of year is magical with the dropping leafs and lush moss/fungus sightings. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick getaway from the city to connect to nature. Thanks, Jerrett for the experience and look forward to our next visit!"

Take a break from the city and connect with nature by staying at our magical farm property located on the very south end of Whidbey Island, WA (12 minutes from the Clinton ferry dock). You can enjoy such activities as swinging in one of the many hammocks, getting goldfish pedicures, feeding some of the sweet animals, talking with the parrot, doing goat yoga, picking fresh fruits and vegetables for dinner you can prepare in our outdoor cabana kitchen, eating s'mores at one of the many firepits, visiting the beautiful flower gardens or simply enjoying the peace and quiet.
Wildlife galore including bald and golden eagles, red tail hawks, deer, raccoons, heron and coyotes.
Some nights, we have live music in the evening by one of South Whidbey's amazing bands and beer flowing from the taps built into the wall of the cabana.
It is just me and an occasional worker operating the property so you may see us weeding, feeding farm animals or watering some of the many gardens. You are encouraged to participate in activities on the farm and children are welcome to do the same.
We are 5 minutes from Bailey's Corner Store, Whidbey's best burger joint, which has great music various nights of the week, and Ogres Brewery which also has great entertainment and beer. Langley and Freeland are each 20 minutes away.
Note that all sites are TENT-ONLY sites. There is no car, roof-top tent or RV camping availability.

We are open! This magical, 40-acre, cultivated ecosystem, will wrap around you and leave you enchanted. Enjoy this peaceful, country retreat, as a place to rest and reconnect with the earth and yourself.
This is a great place to stop for the night, but one day might not be enough to meander the many paths, drink tea harvested from the herb garden, sit on a bench talking to ancient Maple trees, walk the stone labyrinth, wander the sacred Grove, and camp under the stars.
There's so much to enjoy here, from the fragrant rose gardens to the orchards and sheep meadows. Spend the morning sipping tea with a book in the greenhouse, an afternoon wandering the many wooded trails, preparing dinner with vegetables grown from the garden, and enjoying the evening watching the moon and stars come up from the observatory platform. You could take a guided tour of the land and animals, or join one of the many workshops hosted here, such as learning to spin yarn from our herd of Icelandic sheep or take an introduction class to Permaculture. Bring your knitting, friends, or just a favorite book, and spend a few days in this tranquil destination, as this land has something to offer everyone.
Please NOTE:
This is a working farm, we have animals, dirt, sticks, bugs, poop, and lots of opportunities to "connect" with Nature. All of our amenities are shared spaces, designed to foster community. You will find signs posted around the property with clear communication. All of our lodgings are off-grid with no electricity or running water. Water, electricity, and WIFI are available in the shared kitchen, garden, cafe, and lounging areas. Please bring battery-operated lights, bedding, and a pillow, unless otherwise noted.

Escape the hustle and bustle without losing the convenience of town. Our 7-acre property in Poulsbo offers a private, spacious field perfect for those looking to unplug. Separated from the main homestead by a natural pond and landscape, you’ll enjoy the peace and quiet you crave while staying centrally located to everything the Kitsap Peninsula has to offer.
The Location
Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or attending an event, you’re perfectly positioned:
• 12 minutes to Silverdale
• 12 minutes to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds
• 16 minutes to the charm of downtown Poulsbo (“Little Norway”)
The Space
Your journey to the campsite begins at our front farmstand. You’ll enter the property here and head back through the field toward your private site.
• The Drive: To reach the site, you’ll drive through the field directly from the main road. There is no paved road to the site, so please book only if you are comfortable driving across uneven field terrain.
• Privacy and Sound: The camping area backs up to a road. While it is not a major highway, you may occasionally hear passing vehicles. However, the site is tucked behind a natural screen of trees and bushes, ensuring privacy from the road while you relax.
• Nature & Wildlife: The nearby pond is a beautiful feature of the property, though it does attract mosquitoes—bringing bug spray is highly recommended. You may also see us working in the garden or spending time with our chickens and dogs.
Campground Rules & Safety
• Dry Camping: This is a primitive, “dry” site with no bathrooms or hookups.
• Pack It In, Pack It Out: We take pride in our land—please respect the property by removing all trash when you leave.
• Pets: We love dogs! However, because our dogs live on-site and the field is not fenced, all guest dogs must remain on a leash at all times.
What to Bring
• A self-contained camping setup (van, truck camper, or tent)
• Plenty of water and a waste plan
• Bug spray for pond-side evenings
• A vehicle capable of navigating grass/dirt terrain

[20’ RV Trailer] Great grassy spot. Big area to yourself. Although a residential area, neighbors were not too close and all was very quiet. Just a slight sound of Highway 3 off in the distance. Full hookup worked great (50 Amp adapter needed if you have 30 amp cord). Beautiful beach access on the property just a couple minute walk from the camp spot. Easy access to Bremerton, Silverdale, Poulsbo. Hosts were friendly, kind people. Maybe see the Submarine Museum next trip. Caffe Cocina in Poulsbo had tasty coffee. Peninsula Brewery in Silverdale had wonderful food and craft beer. I would go back to this spot again.

2 nights at Tranquil Acres
Shawn's place was a piece of paradise on earth.
The Creekside cabin was perfect for an October getaway. When nights get chilly, the comfortable bed and warm bedding is exactly what you need for an amazing night's sleep and the pop-up patio wall was perfect for sipping morning coffe and taking in the beauty of the land while staying dry on a rainy morning.
Thoughtful touches like a bottle of wine to welcome you and solar lights both indoors and out made the stay extra special.
Shaw was easy to communicate with and the whole property is as described. Highly recommend Tranquil Acres!

I stayed at campsite 4 on the river and it was absolutely perfect! a true hidden gem on the river. Shawn was so responsive and helpful. We walked around the property and all the other campsites were well maintained and great for bigger groups. The "poop hut" was also great, no bad smells and conveniently placed between sites. Lot's of nature and fish to look at and went paddleboarding during the day just a mile or two down the road. Overall it was a perfect camping weekend and i am already planning my next trip back! Highly recommended!
