Looking for the perfect place to unplug and reconnect with nature? Our private 30-acre mountain property offers a peaceful, off-grid camping experience just an hour north of Spokane and only 20 minutes from the highway — yet it feels like a world away. We’ve created a couple of quiet, spacious campsites nestled among the trees, each with its own private porta-potty for added convenience. This is true backcountry camping, so be sure to bring your own water and pack out what you pack in. Endless adventure awaits just outside your tent: hike, hunt, or explore miles of scenic logging roads by foot, mountain bike, or E-bike. Despite the remote feel, cell service is strong so you can easily access trail maps and plan your next outing. More campsites and even a cozy rental cabin are coming soon! Whether you're seeking solitude or an active outdoor getaway, this is the ideal basecamp for your mountain escape.

Mount Spokane State Park

Visit Mount Spokane State Park to discover 100-miles of hiking trails through the forest and up the slopes of Selkirk Mountain Range. Wildflowers bloom in late spring and early summer, while snowmobiling, skiing, and snow-shoeing are popular winter activities.
