Nestled along the banks of the Skagit River at the gateway to the North Cascades, our small riverside campground offers the feeling of a remote wilderness escape — without the strenuous work to get there. Surrounded by mountains, towering evergreens, a wildflower meadow, and river access, it’s a place to slow down and experience the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest in comfort.
Our campground features four campsites spread throughout a densely wooded riverfront setting, creating a quiet, uncrowded experience with plenty of space to relax and connect with nature. Guests wake to birdsong, mountain views, and the sound of the Skagit River flowing nearby. Bald eagles, swallows, ospreys, owls, herons, and countless songbirds are commonly seen around the property, making this an especially rewarding place for birdwatchers, wildlife photographers, and nature lovers. Additionally, spawning salmon can be found right along the river bank late summer through fall.
The campground is an ideal basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts looking to explore the region. Spend your days hiking, fishing, kayaking, rafting, swimming, biking, or taking scenic drives through the North Cascades corridor, then return to camp for peaceful evenings under the stars. River access offers opportunities to cool off, relax by the water, or simply take in the incredible scenery.
While the setting feels wild and secluded, guests still have access to thoughtful amenities including a bathroom with two private stalls and a hot outdoor shower — offering a more comfortable alternative to true backcountry camping while preserving the feeling of being immersed in nature.
The entrance to the property is located directly off the North Cascades Scenic Highway, making the campground easy to find while still feeling worlds away. Each campsite includes dedicated parking at the top of the meadow, followed by a short walk along well-maintained trails past the bathroom and shower house down to the campsites and riverfront.
Whether you're looking for a quiet weekend escape or a basecamp for your American Alps adventure, this campground is designed for people who love rivers, mountains, forests, wildlife, and the outdoors.

Chom's RV Campground staff have been working on an extensive remodel, so bare with us as we are new here too! (Update:work has paused on buildings) Camping is unaffected as there are still plenty of woods to explore here. The initial appearance of the old laundry(to be restored in near future), might send confusion. The bathrooms are completely ready to use and we have hot showers!
Also, we just finished making an amazing nature walk along the river, where you can find blackberries, huckleberries, salmon berries, and even apples, (depending on the time of year). There are birds to watch, among many other types of wildlife. I will be adding more pictures of more campsites soon!

Our camp sites are great for anyone wanting to camp, including groups.
Walk in tenting only.

Our campsite is available in the spring and summer and is just 20 minutes from the city of Chilliwack, BC. We provide a fire pit and campfires are allowed as long as there is no fire ban. (then you can have a propane campfire)
The sites are quite private but there will be other campers nearby. We try to keep a large amount of space between sites and some are separated by trees. We are a walk in tent only site- parking is very close, 30 second walk.
We can also provide access to electricity so you can charge your phones or other devices if needed. There is no cell reception, but we do have wifi that you can use.

Deming, WA · 8 sites · Tents, RVs
Our 28 acres are located in between Maple Falls and Glacier, Wa, directly on Mt Baker Hwy on the way to Beautiful Mt Baker.
Ben and Tyne run a chemical free farm, on which we raise 7 and 1/2 acres of veggie and flower. 15 acres of pastureland on which we raise pasture raised chicken, as well as biannual lamb and beef.
The remainder of our land is breathtaking Pacific Northwest forest that is boarded by the Bay to Baker trail.
Our campsites range between walk in wooded sites, and car camping sites that are open field sites next to the tree line. We provide wagons in our cart corral area to make it more convenient for the very short walk in. ( no more then a 200 foot walk in)
We have a very nice composting outhouse and hand-washing station. We do not have water for drinking or a dishwashing sink, but if you are in a pinch just ask Ben or Tyne and we can help you out.
We want all of our campers happy, comfy, and to have the best time here. :)
We have a beautiful cedar grove to enjoy for lounging and picnics. The Bay to Baker trail borders our property, so it is just steps away and includes a 45 min round walk to a quaint little waterfall (maple falls). As well as a nature loop trail. You can also walk the other direction on the trail over a boardwalk. This direction walks along the back of the farm and allows you to see the veggie fields from a distance. Yofu can continue on the bay to baker trail for a nice walk.
There is a conservation area, just a quarter mile drive down the road. With access to the Nooksack river, that includes several nice swimming spots and a couple nice walking trials.
Silver Lake is just 3.8 miles away. It has a great recreation area, fun for the whole family.
Just a heads up , you will probably lose service on your drive up here. But you will get service back when you are here.
We suggest putting the map in your phone before you leave. Google maps will take you just past the farm, and apple maps will stop you too soon.
So you are looking for the large kragnes family farms sign in the driveway. pull in and follow the camping signs to the back.

We had an amazing stay and would absolutely book here again! We stayed at a site on the river, and it was such a beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing getaway. Traveling all the way from Florida, it was wonderful to arrive and have everything already set up and ready for us.
Jeremy truly thought of everything a guest could need, which made our trip so much easier.
There were thoughtful touches everywhere, from robes, headlamps, and shower sandals to a cooler with ice, quality cookware, a knife block, plenty of dishes and utensils, and even basic seasonings and oil for cooking. It honestly felt like all we had to do was show up and enjoy ourselves.
A friend and I brought our 3 kids, and we loved having the option to add a second tent. It made the setup perfect for our group.
Jeremy and his daughter were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Their hospitality and genuine care for their guests really stood out and made the experience even more enjoyable.
The property was exactly what we were hoping for, and it’s clear that a lot of thought, care, and pride go into creating such a comfortable and memorable experience. We highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a unique, stress-free getaway.
We can’t wait to come back!

Our group had a wonderful stay - we rented both sites and felt like we were in our own little nature preserve. The sites were meticulously maintained, and the provided water, covered stove area, extra folding table and plenty of chairs made spreading out and making ourselves feel at home super easy. We were all empresses with the extra touches Mathew thought of in how he prepared the space for us. Matthew graciously accommodated our group and made time to give us a tour of the property, where he shared lots of conversation about building, permaculture, and lots of overall living grid wisdom. This place is really amazing, and I hope to get to stay in one of his off grid tiny houses at some point for another visit. The creek and trail to the river made for a fun exploration as well. Hope to make it back another time!

Private RV sites with full hookups—each site surrounded with a hedge of berry bushes and trees. The bathrooms and showers are private, recently redone so much nicer than many communal RV camps. There are washers/dryers, a small camp store full of liquor. The tent sites are very exposed on a large lawn—private sites are across the hwy by the river. Lots of birds and mosquitoes.
