***PLEASE CLICK "CONTINUE READING" AND READ EVERYTHING BEFORE BOOKING OR ASKING QUESTIONS.*** Hi! We're Lauren and Jeremy (and Juno). We met through a van life community, and fell in love on the road, camping at different national parks and Hipcamp sites from Jeremy's RAV4 (our first month dating was spent traveling up and down the west coast). We are now the proud new owners of Camp Cedar Creek, an incredible 37-acre property that was built from the hands of the owner before us over the last 40 years. We're so honored to carry on his vision of this magical place, and share it with as many people exploring the Pacific Northwest as we can. We hope your stay here will bring you a deep sense of peace, inspire creativity, give you whatever it is you're in need of at this moment in time. Take a stroll down Cedar Creek, sit and read by one of the seven ponds, get your heart pumping on the hilly trails on the north side of the property, pick as many blackberries as you can find if in season. We can't wait to host you! Learn more about this land: Located right off Hwy 26, directly in between the city of Portland and the peak of Mt. Hood, you'll find the most peaceful corner of the Pacific Northwest for you to pitch your tent or park your van. We are conveniently located just 7 minutes from downtown Sandy, known for its food trucks, outdoor gear shops, and the famous Joe's Donuts. Though we are right off a busy highway, all you'll hear are the tranquil sounds of Cedar Creek's flowing waters and the chirping birds who live in the cedars overhead. The small clearings throughout the property provide natural privacy for our campers, and the 37 acres sprinkled with trails and ponds offer exploration and a sense of wonder we hope you'll enjoy. NOTE: 4WD IS NOW REQUIRED. Due to the traffic we've experienced recently, the steep gravel roads can be tough for some cars and rigs so for everyone's safety, we are restricting access to vehicles equipped to handle the terrain. We're sorry for the inconvenience. If you've been here before and know you can get by with your car, feel free to book again, but please do not message us asking us to advise on the vehicle you have. If we have to dig you out, we will charge a $200 fee. *Cell service: There is an AT&T tower on our property so that gets the best service by far. Verizon is pretty good. T-mobile is very spotty.

Oasis just minutes from Portland
We had the best time! The hosts were kind and accommodating. The property itself is private and lush. My kids ran around free and it felt so safe. We will be coming back again.

Beautiful and fun spot
Even despite all the rain my boyfriend, my dog, and I all had a great time. Easy and detailed directions to both camp as a whole and our individual spot. Beautiful area and can't wait to go back for a longer stay. Lastly, host was friendly and great communicator on the messages.

Like camping in a Japanese garden
Beautifully maintained and well-cared for property—I felt like we were camping in a Japanese garden. This will be a destination for us in the future! The only tricky thing is catching the correct turn off the highway—after that everything is well marked and clear.

Gorgeous
Such a gorgeous and special property—truly as though you've dropped down into a secret grove. We stayed in site #3 which seems to be the most private with its own very large grass/forested area to explore where you cant see any other campers. Such a good find for next time we're passing through this area since it's so close to the hwy but feels like another world!

Epic. Instant Favorite
This place is epic! Private, scenic and sprawling- camp 3 is totally private, I highly recommend it. The creeks gentle sounds made it so we didn’t hear anyone around us, the trails are fun to hike, the owners are low key, the grass is so soft and well kept. We can’t wait to get back here Hot tip- bring waterproof camp/lounge shoes, the grass stayed dewy well into the hot day.

An instant favorite!
This place is a dream! Book it- you won’t look back. We stayed in site 3 and couldn’t see or hear anyone, the creek drowns out any noise from neighboring campers. The hosts are super friendly but stay out of your way. They will even deliver firewood. On hot days the camp stays cool and comfortable. We had such a peaceful set up that we canceled plans for hikes and events just to stay in and relax by the water. Town is close by, lots of cute food trucks and easy grocery shopping. It feels much farther away than it is when you’re tucked away on this sweet property. HOT TIP- Bring waterproof camp/lounge shoes- the grass stays dewy in the shade even on hot days.

This place was so lovely! I love that it’s so wonderfully grassy and lush, even in August. Lauren was super helpful in answering all my questions even before I booked my stay. I stayed at site 3, which was huge, but still surrounded by trees and such, so there was still shade available. Privacy was very important for me and site 3 was very private. Even though the creek isn’t clearly visible from the site, it’s still right next to the creek, with a thin layer of foliage/trees that helps reduce the view of people on the other side of the creek. So I was still able to enjoy the sounds of the creek. :)

Dreamy creekside campsite!
We stayed at the quiet campsite #4 and it was so lovely! We felt tucked away and really enjoyed the creekside view and experience. Overall, a very restorative trip! Also Lauren + Jeremy were great and very communicative!

Manicured and peaceful
Big difference from the hipcamps in the southwest. This hipcamp even has a gate. Everything about this site is picturesque. I was a last minute 1 night booking. I wished i could of stayed for a week. My cross country trip is half over. Been on the road for a month. This was a nice peaceful nights sleep.
