Best Hipcamps in Washington
Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2025.
Near Mount Rainier National Park
Within a 60-minute drive from the Nisqually Entrance.
Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
Family-friendly
Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.
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 12 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 see the host's artwork and purchase a piece if you wish. Originals and prints are both available. This is upstairs through the check-in entry area lobby. 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 (dumpster) available Memorial Day to Labor Day. We look forward to hosting you!

There are walking trails all around the property. Many trails have a view of the Tilton River, which can be reached via a challenging 3/4 mile trail. Sites are on 12 acres planted with many different species of trees that are about 30 years old. Extra camping vehicles are allowed for a fee, so bring your friends! Tents are NOT allowed because they smother the grass. Mats that cover the grass are NOT allowed because they smother the grass. You must provide bathroom facilities for all of your campers. Number of vehicles allowed limits the number of extra RVs. If your RVs are small, more may fit. Check with host for permission to add more. Picnic table and fire pit with grate are supplied in each site. There is fairly good screening between sites. N0 power in most sites exceptions are the three pond area sites, all of which have power for ONE RV. Water IS available in every site. Caution: HIGH WATER PRESSURE. If you want to hook your trailer up directly, be sure to use a pressure regulator to protect your RV's plumbing. We do not have shared spaces, such as restrooms, and will insist that you provide your own bathrooms. Absolutely no cat holes! Trailers and RVs are welcome here at The Arboretum on our Christmas tree farm. NO TENTS, please. Bathrooms NOT provided. Widely spaced campsites provide plenty of private space. Just eleven sites available, so we are never crowded. Drone flying is allowed so don't be surprised if you see some overhead. There is an Art Gallery open for visitors by request, just text Barb. And we offer art classes. This year we’re doing pounded flowers. $20 each person (one hour class), available by request and subject to Barb’s schedule 😊. Check out our other sites!!

This 200 square foot cabin can be a wonderful additional space to complement your RV. This would be a great place for the kids to sleep or to get out of inclement weather. Cabin is lighted and furnished with  a couch, a table and four chairs, plus an easy chair. It is unheated. Just a cozy dry space to sleep or play games.  This is a gorgeous park-like RV campground.
