Shimmer Camp
I had a great time staying at Alicia’s campground!! it was private and perfect for what i needed, and Alicia was very responsive to messages. When i first arrived, she oriented me to her property and where my camping area was which was very helpful. There was a fire pit that i got to use on my first day and it was very lovely. there were also some horses on her property which made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend Alicia’s camp ground to other campers and would be glad to stay there again if i’m ever in the area :)

Such a great spot. Alicia is incredibly welcoming and helpful, making the whole stay great. The property itself is really nice, and having the horses nearby was a unique and fun experience, they’re super friendly and added to the charm. Definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing spot with cool animals and a great host.

Nice camp spot close to MTB trails at Port Gamble. (About 15 min drive) loved the eggs from the local chickens, and seeing the horses on site!

We stayed here while bike packing and it was great! Nice place for the tent, great fire pit with a couple chairs provided, and a pleasantly clean outhouse. Nice to hear the sounds of the horses and chickens and tucked away in a little valley so it feels pretty private. It's a 30 minute bike ride to Poulsbo which made things easy. Alicia was communicative and friendly and the check-in process was smooth and easy.

I never made it to the camp. There is little to no cell service in the area and i could not get a phone number or directions. I made the reservation at night when i was heading out and then read no check in after midnight. I would like a refund of the money i paid to camp as i was unable to use the camp site due to circumstances i did not create

Alicia's place was nice and quiet, and she was very acommodating with our late arrival and early departure.

I enjoyed this HipCamp! Alicia is sweet and wonderful. It was fun/funny to wake up to horses snuffling and roosters cockadoodledooing! I liked that it’s the only site, so no camping neighbors. The outhouse she built is amazing—clean and stinkless, comfortable, and does the job! The site is also nicely located, being convenient to the Hood Canal Bridge, Port Gamble, Poulsbo, etc.
Be aware that it is in a valley and there are neighbors, so you might hear this or that from the adjacent mini-farms. I’ll take that over screaming babies, drunk parties, and loud diesel trucks any day.
My onliest complaint—a minor one—was that while there is a level area designated for a tent, the site as a whole is not very level, and has some rocks and spikey plants, so wear sturdy shoes! It’d be cool if she adds a little terracing with railroad ties or whatnot, and adds landscaping fabric underneath to prevent the spikey plants and blackberries from popping up.
I’d stay here again.

Alicia was a gracious host and very responsive to questions. Perfectly situated on the property for privacy. The tent site is cushioned with shavings and made for a comfy sleep. Only 10 minutes to Port Gamble for the bioluminescent kayak tour. Fun to make friends with the animals (all of which are fenced). Morning coffee watching the horses graze was fantastic. I would definitely come back!

Great private site, really close to mountain biking trails and a disc golf course. You can take a free shower at Kitsap Memorial State Park minutes away

Very private and they had a very nice camp toilet/private outhouse. Site was a bit difficult to access, no turn around and not entirely level.

Alicia is a very kind and welcoming host. Her land is extremely beautiful! The campsite is very quiet, clean, and felt private. We were impressed with the outhouse! Our two year old son loved meeting Alicia’s horses and chickens. We loved the proximity to Poulsbo, a cute little tourist spot. It truly was a special place and a great experience, highly recommend!

Overall we had a great time and we felt very safe because of the gated driveway, farm animals keeping an eye on us, and the host’s house close by. The site was also close to both Poulsbo and Port Gamble which was very convenient. The host is a very sweet and friendly lady and we absolutely loved her dogs, horses, chickens, and fresh chicken eggs! We also invited her kayaking with us, where she took us to the Shine Tidelands State Park. We had the best time, saw some seals, and we were so glad she came!
The campsite was a little clearing in the woods behind her gated pasture with a fire pit, potable water, a lovely outhouse, comfy chairs to enjoy the views, and a picnic table with an umbrella which kept our stuff dry. The campsite did have some spikey plants and uneven ground, so I would recommend bringing good walking shoes and a tarp for under your tent. We would definitely stay here again!

Loved staying here. We stayed in the area because we mountain biked at Port Gamble. It was a super short drive from the trail head, making it a perfect place to stay. Alicia was super sweet, introduced us to her horses, and although we were on her property, the campsite still felt very secluded. Would stay here again (:
