Hammock Ranch

1 site · Tent20 acres · Princeton, BC

Our lake belongs to the beavers and ducks more than the humans. It’s an amazing place to watch, while swimming is best done at the river, a 5min drive away or half hour walk. A hike through the woods affords many opportunities to discover secret spots carved out of the wilderness with private views of the lake and surrounding properties. The rare wildlife around includes bobcats, bears, cougars, deer, elk and the occasional wolf. Ermine, rabbits and grouse are also common sightings. We have 2 dogs and appreciate a chance to introduce them to your dogs so they understand you’re authorized visitors, once you’ve settled in and your animals are comfortable. Thank you for your understanding!

Would rather there be no music and if there is then super low and off by 7. Sauna available after 3pm

Adventure Basecamp

2 sites · RVs3 acres · Maple Falls, WA

Adventure Basecamp is a tranquil, primitive camp nestled in a cedar grove at the end of a private, unpaved road less than a quarter mile off Mt Baker Hwy in Maple Falls, WA. It is the perfect stopover for hiking or skiing Mt Baker or stage yourself here for a weekend of world class mountain biking, hiking or fishing. In camp, level parking pads are tucked in amongst the cedars and a communal picnic/seasonal fire area sits in the center. Peace and quiet greets you here...it's just you, the fauna and flora, and an occasional motorcycle passing by. Watch the sun set over a meadow to the west, marvel at the night sky, a stand of firs lies to the north, and the property is bordered to the east by a private logging road. Vehicles must be fully self contained to stay here; tent camping is not permitted. Adventure awaits you in Maple Falls! It is situated along the Nooksack River at the base of Mt Baker in the North Cascades. Outdoor recreation abounds...mountain bike, hike, fish, forage, paddle, ski, snowshoe, find a swimming hole...or simply drive 50 minutes up to Artist's Point with a picnic and soak in the beauty. When hanging around camp, stroll into town to shop at Crossroads Grocery and/or have a chat and a bevie at Barmann Cellars. Bay to Baker Trail, Red Mountain and the Nooksack are also accessible on foot or bike from camp. We are 10 min to North Fork Brewery and Silver Lake Park, 15 min to Glacier, 45 min to the Mt Baker ski area and 35 min to Bham. Plan to unplug...cell service is dodgy! The property is 3.5 acres over 2 parcels. It was heavily wooded and untended when we purchased last year and has recently been logged. Driving onto the property you'll pass the future garden site, outbuilding, homeowners' cabin, timber for milling and firewood, and, at the end of the road, you arrive at the tidy basecamp. In camp, there is a mound of hog fuel (mulch), a byproduct of logging that we will utilize, and the first stage of a hugelkultur berm that we are building to plant fruit trees. Beyond the basecamp, remnants from the logging project are visible. Sithmaith is a special property, and she is a work in progress.

Camping on Ross Lake guide

Overview

Camping at Ross Lake gives new meaning to “getting off the grid”. Tucked deep in the North Cascades of Washington, this reservoir isn’t accessible by car (on the U.S. side, anyway). You can hike in —or, paddle from Diablo Lake up Riprap Creek and portage your boat overland to Ross Lake.

It takes some effort to get in, but the work is well worth the reward. Wake up to views of snow-capped summits at your lakeside campsite. Fish from the shore, or paddle out into the brilliant blue water.

Feel like a walk? The Pacific Northwest Trail and the East Bank Trail are right in your backyard. Hike along the 23-mile lake toward Canada. On the Sourdough Mountain Trail, you can climb high into the Cascades. From there, the views over North Cascades National Park are breathtaking.

There are 19 campgrounds on Ross Lake, each with 1-7 campsites. Whether you choose a boat-in or trail-accessible site, you’ll need to get a backcountry permit. At Ross Lake Resort, you can rent boats and book floating cabins.

Spring, summer, and fall are the best times for camping in the Ross Lake National Recreation Area. In the winter, heavy snow causes avalanches and road closures. Due to changing water levels, boating is possible from July through September.
