Rock Garden offers a convenient and clean camping experience right in the heart of Pateros. Many campers appreciated the ease of access, ample space, and proximity to local attractions, making it a great spot for fishing trips. The lack of electricity was a common critique, with some feeling that it was a bit pricey for just a parking spot. Overall, the site is well-maintained and provides a safe and organized area to camp.

Right in the middle of everything that Pateros has to offer! Plenty of room to spread out. Easy to access and maneuver our trailers. Nice and level. We will definitely camp here again.

Overall, a great experience, but come prepared for intense wind!
The site is incredibly secluded, peaceful, and quiet—we absolutely loved being away from the crowds. It was also perfect for our dog, who thoroughly enjoyed having the space for some off-leash time. The road leading up to the property is unpaved, but my friend’s Tesla handled it just fine with no issues.
The major downside was the intense wind that kicked up in the evening and lasted throughout the night. It made building a campfire incredibly difficult, and the gusts were so strong that a couple of our camp chairs actually got blown directly into the fire pit! We had to constantly hold onto the chairs so they wouldn't fly away.
Because of this, it is definitely not suitable for traditional tent camping. Even our pickup truck tent struggled, and the wind was howling the entire night.
If you love privacy and are traveling with a dog, this is a beautiful spot. Just make sure you check the wind forecast, bring a sturdy vehicle setup, and heavily weigh down your gear!

Our annual salmon fishing trip with friends was made even better this year thanks to our stay at Rock Garden! From the moment we arrived, Chris was incredibly hospitable & kind, truly going out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed.
This spot is a dream – a convenient 5-minute drive from the dock in Pateros which meant more time fishing & less time commuting. But what truly set this stay apart was Chris's incredible generosity. He even provided access to a freezer in his shop for us to store our vacuum-sealed salmon! This was an absolute game-changer & shows just how much he cares about his guests.
The sites are well-maintained with plenty of room & the location is perfect for exploring the area. If you're looking for a comfortable, welcoming, & perfectly located spot, especially if you're in the area for fishing, look no further. We can't recommend Rock Garden & Chris enough – we'll definitely be back next year!
Great location with great views. Nice spot to camp that feels remote and wild. Liked it!!

Been to 6+ hipcamp sites and this is the only one I really hope to come back to, if it’s not 3 hours drive from where I live. This is more than a well maintained campsite — you can see the host’s effort put into the place. From like-new hookups, fire pit, picnic area, irrigation system for plants, and birdhouses!
This was amazing and so clean and easy! I would highly suggest to stay here
I can't say enough good things about this site. Gorgeous views on top of a mountain. Wide open space with plenty of room for you and your gear. Chris is an amazing host who setup a fantastic site with 30A power, plenty of water, sewer hookups, and an amazing fire pit. When we had a minor issue with the water faucet, Chris' daughter came with a replacement part and fixed it within minutes. Note that the site is a 20 minute drive up a winding gravel road - that's the price to pay for peace and quiet.
Fantastic spot. Great host who made sure we were taken care of. Would absolutely stay here again.

Very convenient and in the center of town, A minimal electric hookup would be nice for the price.

It was close to the water but kinda expensive for just a parking spot. It would be worth it if had electricity.
Great location in town. We felt safe and would camp again.

Clean and organized. Nice spaces , close to all stores and park
It was great and exactly as advertised: reliable hookups, amazing views, a picnic table, good cell signal, and a bit of a nerve-wracking drive up there especially if you’re new to towing like us. We drive a Subaru Ascent and were towing a 21ft travel trailer and made it up fine though. We did pass the site the first time because Google put the address as further down the road than it was. If you keep your eyes peeled and it looks like the picture, get out and check, since there aren’t a ton of good places to turn around (actually there are a few intersections up the road to do it, but see above that we were new at towing). The good news is most of the drive up you can see far ahead to see if another car is coming down the road toward you, and the car coming down is supposed to pull to the side to let uphill traffic pass, which everyone adhered to. There are little pull-offs along the way for that too.
It was very hot for us (100 degrees) but between the air conditioning and our awning which made it much cooler it was pretty manageable. No natural shade though. The evenings were amazing since it cooled down and the view was great. We also took a tip from the hosts to go check out Lake Alta which had a nice little swimming area and concession stand as well.
We had two little kiddos along with us and while our 4 year old might prefer a campground with other kids, I think it was still good for him to be exposed to something different. For adults who want peace and quiet this would be especially great.

First time using Hip camp and I must say that Coyote Estates set the bar high! The site was huge and level with incredible views. The water and power all worked great. Additionally Chris was such a helpful host helping me out with a battery issue I had with my motorhome. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle.

This place is pretty awesome! We were there on Memorial Weekend and there was a pretty good amount of traffic on the road next to this property. The sunrise was beautiful! We saw a coyote, lots of deer and birds. The Sweet River Bakery in Pateros is nummy and their coffee is good. We noticed ticks on our dogs after a short hike at Indian Dan at the bottom of the hill. The hill going up to the property is single wide and a pretty good incline. I wouldn't want to go up or down with the trailer in the dark. Our truck brakes also got pretty warm coming down even with engine breaking. Chris was super nice and helpful! We would recommend this property.
We came out from Seattle for an overnight. Took about four hours…amazing drive if you’ve never done it—so much to see. We made it up the hill on the dirt road with switchbacks (HD pickup and a 27’ trailer got up no problem). It might be sketchy at night or in the rain. Amazing views at the top! We had planned to watch the stars but it was too cold and windy the night we came. We woke up to a calm and tranquil Sunday morning. Serenity found in a sweet seranade of bird song. We’d come back again!

Special place. Something we’re thankful to have experienced. My family loved the spot - from the extraordinary views to the wildlife viewing and hikes, it was just wonderful. Chris was a terrific host and we’re looking forward to returning.
We recently decided that we wanted to try winter camping and decided to get a hot tipi set up going. After putting together our set up all we needed was a place to prop up the tipi on a cold winter night. I contacted Chris who was kind enough to plow the area for us and even provided us with wood!!! The spot was exactly what we were looking for! Absolutely recommend!
Felt like we were on top of the world! This site is super cool and very quiet and private. Nice change from busy state parks. This place is aptly named for we had Coyote performances both evenings!
An hour away and a beautiful drive to Twisp and Winthrop for art, shopping and parks.
Make sure and double check directions to this camp. "Hipcamp" tends to send out wrong directions on behalf of hip camp owners who own several locations.
This site is on a nigh hill overlooking the Columbia Valley. The site is AWESOME!!! You should contact the host directly for directions, as HipCamp is having problems with directions. The host must be an electrician, because there are TWO 30 amp hookups, plus four 15 amp plugs. Water is great and tastes great. The pad is HUGE and there is also a 50 amp plug about 30 feet away. You could fit at least four large RV's here. The road up is gravel and pretty steep. But nothing my SUV with a 27 foot trailer couldn't manage. And the view is awesome!

Amazing site, well maintained and includes ammenities such as power/well water. Great for stargazing.
Oh mu gosh, this place is perfect, and the host, Chris is so accommodating and friendly. We had a wonderful time. Beautiful views, private, and the stars were breathtaking. We are already wanting to book again.
This is a clean no-frills level Gravel parking lot with new picnic tables. It is 30 seconds walk to the river and close to bars and restaurants.
It worked for us for the one night we stayed.
Not much ambience, but convenient

Great place for stargazing. Dark site at high altitude. I spent my 2 night photographing deep space objects. Chris was very friendly and helpful.
