~~~~~~~~****{{*}}****~~~~~ WILD AZALEA ECO-CAMP ~~~~~****{{*}}****~~~~~~~~
Spend much needed quality time with nature and unwind at Wild Azalea Eco-Camp. Our beautiful 5 acre Permaculture homestead at the gateway to the Rogue River, features everything required to get away, relax—unplug; yet near enough to plenty of outdoor activities, river adventures, and the quaint small town bustle of downtown Grants Pass.
There’s a little bit of everything to please camping enthusiasts: RV/van/car or SUV spots, or cozy tent sites for individuals, small families and even group reunions.
Or, after it's completed at some point soon, you could try our newly renovated tiny cabin if you're in a glamping mood!
~~~~ Wild Azalea Camp is part of a 16 yr. old organic homestead project and “food forest” with a broad array of permanent food bearing plants using regenerative agriculture – no-till organic gardening methods with native plants, medicinal plants, water capturing features.
Guided garden tours of the 1 acre garden/orchard available upon request, where you can also learn a bit about our Earth friendly practices!
Retreats/workshops, small gatherings and public classes are in the plans, which Hipcamp guests are welcome to join.
Dreaming up your own small group gathering/event, multi-family outing, or something similar? Contact us to inquire about the possibility of holding it in the lovely natural surroundings of Wild-Azalea!

BRYON'S ART
One of the things you will notice when you look around the Camp - is ART - art on banners, window stickers and magnets. Barbara's son Bryon was the creator of this art, art that you may have seen at festivals or in stores or decorating yoga and spiritual Centers around the country.
Bryon shared this land with his mom until his death at the end of 2022, and she celebrates his life by sharing a small taste of his art with you.
