Weekend Trip to Camp MoxyJo's

The lands of Camp MoxyJo's were such fun from vintage glamping trailers and camper vans to multiple kitsch-filled common areas for communal cooking, play & hanging out. Having grown up in the 1960s, I felt I was immersed in joyful memories of my young adulthood everywhere I walked on the Camp MoxyJo's grounds. My young grandchildren loved roaming the campground, feeding the goats, and being introduced to the art of darts--intergenerational memory making.

Neighborwood was the perfect glamping experience. Tyler was a generous host with a nice touch for whimsy and beauty. The trailer was well supplied and cute in a rustic way. I was super comfy and relaxed. I loved the outdoor shower. I'd definitely go back.

If you like communal-style arrangements with a strong sense of restorative and connection with the land, this place is great. I enjoyed the dried herbs for mixing custom tea blends, community gathering spaces, meandering trail through the forest and wetlands, and incredible flower garden and orchard. The vintage camper itself was clean and comfortable, with good mattress and pillows. Kateen is also a great host, meeting us and providing a small tour at the start. Portable toilets are not my favorite, but they were well-kept, with a hand-washing sink with soap available. I could see coming back and staying for more than one night and would recommend to others.

Amazing farm stay! Kateen has the most beautiful farm and it felt like living in a magical fairyland. Flowers and lush green plants in every direction. Everything in the common spaces and campers are clean and well maintained. The bed was a little creaky but it was comfortable and I slept very well. I felt extremely safe and comfortable. It was super easy to get to Port Townsend from the property, I will absolutely come back!

We had a wonderful stay in the trailer! It was comfortable, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The place is actually much bigger than it looks in the photos, which was a great surprise. The amenities were excellent, and our kids especially loved feeding the goats — such a fun and memorable experience for them. Joanna was super responsive and made everything smooth from start to finish. Everything was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged, which made our stay so easy and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend this place, especially for families with children.

This hipcamp is truly special! Kateen has created a place that reflects her deep respect and reverence for the land she stewards. She was welcoming and went above and beyond what I’ve ever experienced from a host. The details throughout every corner of the property, from meditation spots to the kitchen and library, show just how thoughtfully everything has been curated and how much care and intention went into this space. Staying here was an experience I won’t forget and I will most certainly be returning!

A quiet and well-appointed place for some time alone. I was looking for somewhere to unwind away from a computer screen and to get some writing and thinking done; this was exactly what I wanted. There's a hammock and a good table for writing in the camper. I slept well and ate well and got some really good work done. I wish I could have stayed a third night.

I stayed in one of the campers for five nights while attending a dance retreat in Port Townsend. This place was just lovely all around. Hot outdoor(ish) shower & gorgeous vegetable/flower/fruit farm you can harvest from. There's poop everywhere because it's a farm but it wasn't a problem, and I didn't have any trouble with the geese and turkeys. Sweet tea room, library, greenhouses, foot soak.... total gem.

What a lovely weekend I had at Tyler's adorable vintage trailer. Nestled in the deep forest of Harstine Island, it feels a million miles away from civilization and yet you have all the comforts and amenities of home. The trailer is very comfortable, the porta poty was clean and actually smells good and the outdoor shower is incredible; Tyler has created a truly special retreat. I had a great time exploring the island and will definitely be a return camper!

The best vintage trailers near Seattle guide

Where to go

Puget Sound

Set out on the water of the Puget Sound on a boat or kayak to whale watch or swim. Campers can charter a boat or sign up for an inland waters whale watching tour to witness resident orcas swimming near the sound. Or head out of the sound to enjoy gray whale migrations in spring. Then, find RV parks, campgrounds, and cabin rentals around Puget Sound to stay right on the waterfront.

Olympic National Park

Olympic National Park’s forests, meadows, and rugged Pacific coast attract campers to its 922,650-acres every year. The park, situated on the Olympic Peninsula, features views of glacial peaks and lush valleys. Hikers will enjoy Peninsula Trail Loop and Madison Falls Trails, which puts backpackers in close proximity to waterfalls and hot springs. The park also offers hike-in and boat-in primitive campsites that are pet friendly. Outside the park, look for cabin rentals and RV parks with more amenities like full hookups, showers, and picnic tables.

Mount Rainier National Park

The highest mountain in Washington, Mount Rainier is the star of the national park named in its honor. Enjoy a wealth of activities in the park such as hiking to Sunbeam Falls and Narada Falls or exploring the famed Wonderland Trail that encircles Mount Rainier. Other must-see park attractions include Tipsoo Lake, Fremont Fire Lookout, and Reflection Lakes. Then, look for on-site campgrounds that have tent sites and RV pads, water, and flush toilets.

When to go

Seattle’s climate is seasonal; however many campers enjoy visiting year-round. July and August is when Seattle weather is dry. Summer temperatures stay within the 70s. November to January is the wet season, so many campers who visit the area in winter bring rain and snow preparations. Those interested in the region’s snow sports can plan to visit in December to April when snowfall is abundant and temperatures range between 38–52°F.
