Exquisitely beautiful area formed by melting glaciers forming the "Alta Coulee". The campground is situated at the South end of Alta Lake, opened in 1946 and operated by my Grandparents until 1980, when my father decided to continue operations adding Outfitting and Guide services into the Pasayten and Sawtooth Wilderness areas. Covid put a halt on business for a few years, but we are back and making some gradual upgrades and changes to offer camping and horseback riding experiences again! The lake is 220 acres known to Anglers near and far. Plenty of room for the sunseekers wanting to play in the water on paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, and water skiing. An 18-hole Golf Course resides at the North end of the lake and white water rafting just a few miles down the hill on the Methow River. Must book horseback riding in advance. We offer free Wi fi to guests near the office only.

Christine’s land was perfect for a quiet getaway. It is on a farm, so you do hear animals from a far distance. It was not annoying whatsoever. Plenty of room for larger tents or even multiple tents. The river access was really nice for sitting next to with a cocktail or early morning coffee. The toilet is a little bit of a walk, but I always bring my own.

Awesome spot! Really quiet and spacious. We had a minor issue when we arrived but Mariah responded to my message and had it taken care of promptly. We brought our own toilet set-up and my friend was kindly informed by staff that the tasting room bathroom isn’t encouraged for campers. There is an outhouse nearby though. Willow Point is a great place to go for a swim in Lake Chelan and is a 9 min drive from the site.

Very beautiful view from the site, quiet away from roads. Sunrises and sunsets very peaceful. Mariah responsive re finding the spot in the orchards when we arrived. We had no trouble with wind at night as others have mentioned. No mosquitoes but flies were significant at times making us glad to have a screen. Overall a very nice spot and we will surely come back to visit again.

This is the third time we have been to this absolute gem of a paradise!!! if you are looking for romantic views and privacy look no further! This is the perfect location to set up camp. It’s so close to all of the thrills and activities that Chelan and Manson have to offer. The campsite itself was so stunning and romantic featuring views of three different lakes and offering the best sunsets. The outdoor bathrooms were clean and well kept, and it is the perfect distance from the four Lakes winery tasting room, just a short walk or stumble from your cozy camp. It was so beautiful and perfect that my fiancé chose this place to propose to me in the middle of these stunning apple orchards and wine vineyards With the beautiful sun setting in the background we have fallen so in love with this perfect location that we are considering having our wedding here. We will for sure be coming back to this absolute paradise year after year. Mariah and her husband were absolutely fantastic and respond immediately. Anytime, we have any questions you seriously can’t find a better camping spot than this.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Hipcamp! The site was spacious and very private, with beautifully maintained grounds and direct access to the river—it truly felt like our own little retreat in nature. The location was also perfect, just a short drive to town yet peaceful and secluded. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. One of the highlights of our trip was the 2-hour horseback ride—an unforgettable adventure that the entire family loved! Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a serene getaway with great amenities and amazing hosts.

Mariah’s campsite is charming and it offered a fantastic view that really made the experience special. The campsite is well-equipped with a clean outhouse, a spigot for water, and even access to power, although we didn’t use it. On the flip side, it does get quite hot with little to no shade, and the area can be a bit dusty. At night, the winds pick up quite strongly, so it’s good to be prepared for that. Overall, the beautiful view and the unique location in a winery definitely make it a memorable experience. Just be ready for the heat and the wind!

Just had a great stay at Philville! Stayed in Osprey's Perch that had the best view for morning coffee, plus can't beat full hook-ups with a travel trailer. The walk to the river is easy and there's a great beach and swimming hole. Phil is a very accomodating host, super friendly and knowledgeable about the area and his little puppers are so cute! Definitely will stay again soon!

Fun tent camping at The Lakes Vista! It has the most beautiful views of multiple lakes and vineyards nearby. It's a very private camp space with multiple options to pitch a tent, yet a walking distance to their wine tasting room with a restroom. Our pups also enjoyed their stay. We were happily surprised with shaded areas to keep cool during the hot afternoons. Mariah is welcoming and provided clear instructions when we arrived. We will be coming back!
