This is a gorgeous park-like RV campground situated between the trees of the arboretum. No tents, please. Also we have NO public restrooms. Beautiful view of the mountains and forests here in western Washington. We are close to Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Rainier and several lakes.
There are walking trails all around the site. The 12 acre campground is located on a 136 acre property that is an active Christmas tree farm. Trails continue throughout the tree farm.
Many trails have a view of the Tilton River, which can be reached via a challenging 3/4 mile trail. Sites are on 10 acres planted with many different species of trees that are about 30 years old. Giant Redwoods, Cedars, and Maples are just a few of the varieties present. Part of the farm is still a working Christmas tree farm.
The trails are wide and grassy. The old logging road that we use as a trail to the river has an elevation change of about 500 feet, the trail can be quite challenging. Bear Creek empties into the Tilton river at the end of the trail.
There is an ART GALLERY where you can learn to pound flowers, see the host's artwork and get a cup of coffee! This is upstairs above the shop, right on the property. Tilton River Studio Gallery.
Three sites have electrical hookups. Every site has a water spigot (use a pressure regulator if you want to hook up). No restrooms or sewer hookups. Garbage disposal site available Memorial Day to Labor Day.
We look forward to hosting you!

Forest camping on a huckleberry farm with a salmon stream. 10 acres of permaculture and mycology includes 5 granite fire pits and loop trails with dispersed tent sites. A remote island, naturist beach and kayak at the creek. Parking is limited.
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 its 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!"

Natural Paradise. This ranch has been preserved in it's raw natural form to watch nature take care of itself. We are only here temporarily to learn from what it has to offer. Come listen and learn from nature, it has so many lessons for those who are ready to listen and learn. Where ever your at in life, this natural teacher will meet you right where you are! Each experience is unique to the explorer and journey your on. All living things have a story, from the wildlife to the plants, the water to the air... All is perfect right where its at.

This will be an odd review because I have not been to the site yet. I made a reservation for earlier in September but then had difficulty getting my van back from an up fitter. I could not make my previously paid for reservation, but Barb has been absolutely terrific!! I stayed in touch with her and let her know what my troubles were and she has been an angel. I will be getting there within the next three days, Lord willing, and I am certain beyond any doubt that my stay there will be extra extraordinary. These are class ass people. Not nearly enough of them to go around.

Barb and Terry's property is becoming a home away from home for us, our family, and dear friends. We finally toured Barb's art studio this visit and we were blown away by her talent and the history she's shared. If you get the chance please check it out and try to find time to talk with Barb. She's a wealth of knowledge and full of incredible stories.

Camped here in our tent trailer. The Shady Grove spot was nice and fairly private from the other areas. They have their campground well laid out and kept nice. Grass is green and well kept in each site.

We love camping here so peaceful, private and relaxing ! Terry and Barb are great people and host they make you feel welcomed and make sure your stay is everything you wanted. The coyote cabin site is great for a group or just a family . Cabin is a wonderful added feature to hang out in or have family sleep in . Make sure to stop in and see Barbs art it is beautiful and get a thing of the honey so delicious.

We’ve lost track of how many times we’ve stayed here, and it never disappoints. Our family is always excited to visit, and it’s such a peaceful way to step away from the busyness of life. This spot continues to set the standard for what Hipcamp is all about.

This was our 2nd time camping here this summer but first time in the blue site. We really loved the site. It is very spacious and surrounded by trees, as all the sites are. The property is lovely, as are the hosts! We will be back again next summer!

Jerrett was extremely friendly. He greeted us when we arrived and showed us the campsite to pick from. The one we selected was perfect for two tents. We enjoyed our short visit. Perfect crash spot after our night time kayaking!

The tree farm is a favorite of ours. We know from experience our stay will be relaxing and trouble free. We appreciate the attention from Barb and Terry on check in and don't feel they're intrusive. They were very responsive to text when we did need wood. Our 30 trailer fit with ease in Cedars. There is plenty of room to pull in and turn around. Additionally, ample room for two trailers. There was a good mix of sun and shade in August. Our trailer stayed in the shade while the grassy area was sunny. Quiet. Peaceful.

Jerretts land was amazing! He was a great host & made sure to orient us to the campsite. There was a fire pit, wood fired hot tub, a few trails, and good space to spread out. We were told there were three other groups but we never really encountered them. It was perfect for our group of four and pup.

We stayed two nights in the Cedars Site and really enjoyed it. It was very apparent from the moment we arrived to the property that Barb & Terry take great pride in their land and ensuring a great experience for their guests. Everything was clearly marked to get to the site and they even provided a map of the land. We enjoyed spending our time at our site and also spent some time on the swings & playing horseshoes. Terry came by our site with some bundles of wood & came back the next day (at our request) so we could purchase some of his honey and homemade vinegar. We have zero complaints about our stay here! We had a great time and are talking about coming back with more of our family at a later date.

We arrived a bit before check-in time and Jerrett was already at the campsite to greet us. He gave us a solid tour of our site, the nearby creek, and the multiple hiking trails just a short walk from our campsite. Lots of forest cover so the heat doesn’t get to you, but beware of bugs due to the proximity to the water. Short drive to a beach and town as well.
