Lori's farm offers a peaceful and private camping experience with ample space and direct river access, perfect for those looking to unwind away from the hustle and bustle. Most campers found the privacy between sites and the welcoming nature of the host, Lori, to be highlights. While one review noted a "weird vibe" due to a brush fire area, the majority of visitors were unfazed by this and praised the scenic beauty and tranquility of the surroundings. The presence of farm animals and the chance to engage with the land added a unique touch to the stay.

73 Acres On Farm River Site 2
Lori's farm is incredible. Both sites are very private, far away from anyone. We brought our dogs and like to let them wander off-leash; we always worry a bit about them bothering other people. There's no problem doing that here; you've got ~300 yards (3 football fields) between each campsite, and much farther than that to any other property. We were a larger group, so we actually rented both campsites; they're both great. The river is a 15-second walk from Site 1 (you can hear the river in camp; it's a literal stone's throw from where you sleep), while at Site 2 you're 10 yards from the river's edge. That said, Site 1 gives you a bit more room to explore a wooded area and has the pyramid (which part of our group liked sleeping in, so they didn't have to set up a tent).
I noticed only one negative review mentioning a "weird vibe with burned area"...I'm constantly astounded by people, to say the least. There was a small brush fire due to a city-owned powerline that #1 very fortunately got put out quickly and #2 you can barely tell occurred -- I think there are two trees that have black markings at the base. How that could bother anyone on a huge farm with hundreds of trees is mind-blowing. But hey, I won't complain about this place having more availability :)
My wife and I will definitely be back!

73 Acre Farm On River Site 1
Site 1: It is hard to describe how GOOD THE VIBES were here. Peaceful, quiet except for the sounds of the many birds nearby, walking trails, several points of access to the river from camp. Private and comfortable, they provide wood with a small fee and it is as much as you need. The “Pyramid” was perfectly rustic and unfinished inside, a bit damp perhaps but with a concrete floor, two small windows that open and are screened, a secure front door, AMAZING VIEWS thanks to the large unique windows, it was a very pleasant surprise and we stayed in there all four nights of our stay. Very cozy! Lori stopped by to introduce herself and was very kind about my dogs who bark and the fact that we had two foster dogs who were weary of new people and animals. The privacy of this spot cannot be overstated but should be noted, you can hear the road nearby in the distance and airplanes fly far above but both were barely audible. Fishing was ok, probably better if you know what you’re doing, I am a lifelong novice! Four days flew by. Seriously considered just staying forever 😅💯

Loved our stay, great conversation with Lori and saw some cows and a lama up close getting some exercise, burned a ton of wood and heard coyotes off in the distance. Love this place

Lots of space and privacy but vibes were a bit weird ...
Two of the large trees directly around the site and picnic table looked recently burned, along with a lot of the other trees and undergrowth around that area. Wasn't a relaxing or scenic vibe because of that.

The site was well maintained, private, and in a beautiful spot. This was the biggest campsite I’ve ever seen and right on the river. The host, Lori was lovely. I loved that there was a cooking/prep table and a picnic bench on site. Site 2 for the win!
We had a great time at the farm. Lori, the host, was an exceptional communicator and very accommodating. We stayed at site #1 which was expansive, private and had perfect river access! Also such an added bonus to be able to have a campfire this time of year.
Will definitely be back!

I would highly recommend this HipCamp. I was in site 2 and it was quiet, very spacious and the area next to the river has so much room for setting up camp or just hanging in chairs while you wade or swim. Loved it.

We had a fantastic time camping on Lori’s land! Site 1 was incredibly spacious and felt very private. The short 2 minute walk to the river was amazing, with plenty of areas to wade in. My fiance and cousin also did a little bit of fishing and had a great time. We were in a rooftop tent but there’s tons of flat space for tents. At night we heard screeching owls which was insanely cool! Lori was super sweet and accommodating–we will absolutely be back!

This property is spacious, peaceful, and absolutely beautiful. The hosts are incredibly kind, and you can truly see how much they love and care for the land they call home. That’s one of the reasons I like Hipcamp, it gives genuinely wonderful people the opportunity to share their special places with others.
Staying here felt like being welcomed into a space that has been thoughtfully cared for and deeply appreciated. It was a wonderful experience, and I would happily stay here again.
The river access was easy; though there was not a comfortable space to hang out along the river. That was the only downside, and that is my personal preference.
Thank you for a wonderful and our pup Otis gives it 10/10!

what a wonderful property and campsite and one of the nicest hipcamp hosts we've ever met! We will be back Lori!
Camping on Lori’s land was a lot of fun! Camping by the river was such a great experience! We also got to do the river float from Mill City back to our camp site ! We also went berry picking! There is so much to do and the stars were beautiful at night! Highly recommend coming to this spot !
Beautiful riverside campsite on a gorgeous farm property. Lori was such a gracious host and took amazing care of my dog and I! The privacy of the sites is amazing. I spent 3 days lounging by the river and saw deer, turkey vultures, frogs, and so many birds. Town is just a short drive away with multiple dog-friendly breweries. Would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful escape by the river.
Such beautiful land and space to host camp. My husband, dog and I spent Two days swimming, walk in the property playing games and picking fresh black berries. We stayed in camp 1 which was very spacious, beautiful views and a short walk to the river!

A very nice and private place by the river. Lori and Chuy were very helpful and kind hosts. The spot is big with lots of space to turn around or spread out if you have a group. A good mix of forest, river, and farmland. Lots of options to explore or just relax. A great place for dogs. We felt safe and comfortable here. We saw a lot of birds and a beautiful spot to look at the stars. A real gem so close to town and get away for a little bit.

My husband and I absolutely loved our time at campsite 1 on Lori’s land. We set up camp in the shade of big maple trees, with the river mostly out of sight due to foliage, but literally only a few easy steps away. Our puppy was able to roam free to chase frogs and butterflies and we all enjoyed time in the river. Silver Falls State Park is only 20 minutes away, and there are a couple of towns just north of that with plenty of dog friendly breweries. Lori herself was very welcoming and helpful, even taking us for a quick ride on her quad to choose our site. We are already making plans to go back in the fall. We look forward to going back!

Lori was a great host! The site is great, secluded, and was a romantic weekend. The fire pit was great and the river access was very nice and private
This is a great spot if you are in a camper or van. Not the best if you are in a tent. Definitely bring shade coverage but there was a decent breeze where we were situated. The hardest part for us was that we didn't have a clear area that seemed distinctly arranged for where we should set up. We had to juggle beetles in the air and animal poo on the ground. Hoping HipCamp can support Lori and take updated photos. Wonderfully close to Breitenbush for a day pass and super close to groceries in Stayton.
Beautiful clean shaded spot w/ great access to river. Camp hosts very friendly and helpful. We loved hearing and seeing the cows!

very private. clean. mowed. site 1 is easy to find, site 2 is a bit more challenging to find. Lori stopped by upon arrival and gave us some tips on the property.
We had such an amazing time here, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with some great views and really nice water. Me and my wife and our two dogs had a great time and it is fun seeing the farm animals.
Beautiful property and river access. Spacious campsite and pet friendly! Definitely want to come back!!

Lori was extremely nice and even educational for my 4 year old daughter. I definitely plan to bring my family here again! The camp was absolutely amazing, tucked away and the views were breathtaking of the river.
Lovely , low key spot with access to lots of soaks and excursions . Lori is a generous , aware and considerate host , we really enjoyed the hands on farm chores and bracing dunks in the river , great experience for kids and big kids alike ..we will go again with some friends next time .
