We loved staying here! GK and her family were so inviting, it felt like staying at a farm owned by close relatives of a friend. The peacock was impressive and the horses are lovely. We will definitely be back.

Fun stay on the farm!
We had a great stay at the farm! GK and her family are incredibly welcoming hosts. Our kids loved meeting the animals and experiencing farm life. They also loved the rope swings! Conveniently close to the city but feels like a world away.

I went on a solo trip for 2 nights at the farm and had a lovely time. There were horses, cats, dogs, chickens, and even a peacock. They have a moderate-size backyard that I had to myself. GK was very welcoming but also let me do my own thing. It was a belated birthday trip for me, and they made me a cake and one of their neighbors gave me a gift! Super sweet.

We had a really wonderful stay here! For some reason the map didn’t put in the address number, just the street, so we were taken to a different place but GK was a really incredible host and stayed up to make sure we made our way there! It’s a really beautiful property and we definitely would have liked to stay longer!

Cute and safe
This Hipcamp was super cute little farm, safe and comfortable. We were just passing through, and it made our journey all the more enjoyable to stay somewhere that was more intimate and friendly. The host was very friendly and accommodating.

Quiet and family oriented place to
Everything before arrival to after arrival was amazing!! Loved the farm feel, my daughter got to make apple cider, ride a horse, pick apples and play. She had amazing time as well. Weather was perfect. Treated like family. Loved all the animals roaming around. Will definitely be returning in the future.

Idyllic - we’ll back!
I can’t speak highly enough of Elijah Park & Farm! GK and her family were the perfect hosts who went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and truly welcome. The farm is idyllic, with peacocks, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs all roaming freely together and a paddock with beautiful horses. We were greeted with fresh roses on our picnic table and bales of dry firewood and the restroom facilities were super clean and thoughtfully maintained. I enjoyed my night here so much I brought my daughter back a few days later for our annual camping trip and we had the best time, we were both sad to leave. Thank you GK and family for a truly memorable and relaxing holiday - we’ll be back!

Absolutely Amazing!
We had an amazing stay! GK and her family are wonderful hosts - we felt so welcome. My son - age 6 - was able to run, play, gather chicken eggs, swing, slide, pick apples, and vegetables to his heart's content. The farm felt peaceful and calm - a great place to get away from it all. We were able to fall asleep to the sound of crickets under the stars. We slept so well! I would highly recommend a stay.

Very Special Place!
We really enjoyed our stay at GK's farm. While conveniently located, it feels like a world away. GK and her family were wonderful hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. They even had special touches for my kiddo like bubbles and glow sticks. The horses, ducks, peacocks, chicken, cats, dogs and swings in the front made for hours of entertainment for my daughter (she was in complete heaven) and they let her have free run of the yard which was very generous. We had a delicious breakfast of farm fresh eggs and snacked on raspberries from the garden. Gk has created a magical space and would definitely recommend staying there!

Pastures o’ plenty
What a wonderful experience we had at Elijah Park & Farms! The drive through Brush Prairie set the stage with Mt. Hood looming to the south. This was pretty country that I didn’t even know existed. Passing roiling hills with grazing horses we made it the farm and we’re welcomed with open arms. GK and her daughters were right there to greet my 9 year old daughter and made her feel right at home, tire swing and all.
The farm has almost a 360’ of open prairie taking in both sunrises and a gorgeous sunsets to the west. You’ll share the grounds with peacocks, chickens, ducks, cats and two lovable border collies. Horses are in the adjoining pasture. GK and family were quick to share their love and knowledge of their beautiful farm family. We made camp amongst the apple trees and took advantage of the private fire pit on the properties side yard. Although the family loves the company around the communal fire pit on the back yard as well.
GK had plenty of recommendations for our trip and helped guide my daughter and I through a day of exploring the Columbia Gorge, within an hours drive of the farm.
From fresh eggs for breakfast and botany lessons to phone chargers and jump starts...they had it all.
They gave my daughter the opportunity to connect with their horses on a pretty cool and personal level. Smiles from ear to ear....an experience she will remember for some time.
Walking barefoot down the long dirt driveway chasing ladybugs it was hard to imaging we were still less than an hours drive from The Columbia Gorge, Portland and Vancouver. Just a wonderful stay with a wonderful family.

Staying here was awesome! Our 5 year old wanted to go camping but we wanted to start off with something close and easy, so this was a perfect fit. They greeted us and showed us around and were super nice and welcoming. The kids had a great time checking out all the animals, we had a nice fire going to toast marshmallows and make s’mores, and we slept in the car no problem. We’ll probably come back when the animals have their babies!

GK was an incredibly accommodating and welcoming host. She accepted our last minute booking and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The site was green and shaded, and included a table and chairs, lantern and a big fire pit. Situated on a working farm with peacocks, chickens, ducks, horses, cats and dogs, we enjoyed being around all the animals. We look forward to staying with GK again on our next trip and would highly recommend to others.
Pro tip: Keep your eyes peeled for the tiny fairy garden next to the site! Very cool! :)

GK, who was an awesome host, immediately made us feel welcome and showed us all around her property. She let us know that depending on the camper’s preference of stay, she’s happy to let people be or engage them with the various activities going on at her farm. Sweet hammocks under giant apple trees, hawk watching, baby chicks running wild, fresh spring water delivered to site! A sweet welcome sign let us know we were at the right place, and we enjoyed our time at Summer Bliss! While the sites are on their property, it doesn’t feel like you’re in their space; they’ve created a campsite that feels dedicated to the camper.
