MCF is situated 12 minutes NE of Shelton Washington with secluded wetlands nested against the SW shores of Spencer Lake. Covering over 124 acres MCF offers terrain from grassy fields to heavily wooded forests and an abundance of sanctuary wetlands. Being surrounded mostly by private timberlands expands the remote feeling this location has to offer. More than 3 miles of maintained trails deliver single track/ pedestrian/equine pathways to wider trails joined by a main trunk trail large enough for vehicles. Malaney Creek meanders through a cool grassy tree lined meadow where a 40 year old wooden bridge serving the main driveway can be viewed. Established in 1977 as a resident farm, MCF was once rich with an old growth ceder forest feeding a cedar mill and railroad built by early settlers of Mason County. Remnants of the old growth giants still remain.

Cascara

So good we’re looking to re-book!

This was a gem of a find. The whole property is beautiful and accessible to campers. The sites themselves are spacious and have plenty of privacy! My favorite aspect of Cascara is that you can’t see any other sites from it. We felt secluded, but never isolated. The porta-john was clean as a whistle and stocked with toilets paper. Just an overall awesome stay for the 4th of July.

Trillium

We loved our stay. Trillium was a large stie that felt very private. We could hear the other site down the way, but just barely. Dan was very nice and showed us everything we needed, the store is a great bonus! We were visited by a slightly territorial barred owl which was exciting but a little noisy.

Trillium

We (2 humans, 1 dog) absolutely loved camping on Tracy’s farm. Our site (Trillium) was so carefully and thoughtfully built. The perfect place to unwind in privacy and close to plenty of fun outdoor activities!

Creekside

Relaxing and comfortable

We stayed at Creekside and it was a great space perfect for our group. We got there on Saturday after a long day of disc golf in the area and had to leave a little early on Sunday, and it worked out well. It's just close enough to Shelton. We would've liked to have seen more of the farm and other amenities. We stayed up late sitting around the campfire. We never unpacked our chairs, the Adirondack chairs are clean and comfortable. Sleeping in this cozy area was fantastic. In the morning a deer walked by the cars. Really great to get out of the city for the weekend. This was our first time using HipCamp, and we're very happy with how it went. We hope to be back!

Creekside

Stayed one night in Creekside and looking forward to going back soon! Site is huge, private, tidy, and well designed with a large rain fly and cozy fire pit. The care and hard work that went into the site are apparent - everything is laid out perfectly and well-executed. Hosts were attentive and explained all the amenities of the farm. I’m excited to check out the wetlands trail on my next visit - it sounds amazing!

Well maintained beautiful space!

It was mostly very peaceful and relaxing. One of the days there was a boy (maybe host’s relative?) riding by on a variety of motor vehicles (electric mountain bike, dirt bike, ATV, etc) riding by our site throughout the day, but I think this was a rare occurrence and the host was quick to remedy it when we mentioned it. The kid was incredibly sweet and apologized for riding too close to me and even made a point to check in on us from time to time to make sure everything was going ok or to ask if we needed anything. He’s a future camp host in the making! We loved the amenities at the site — the chairs were perfect for relaxing by the fire. The host brought wood to our site when we notified them we were going to be late, which was really kind of them. The tarp was a nice touch if it were raining but I personally like the open air over the camp kitchen and picnic table. Although I appreciated it kept most of the leaves off our stuff! The overall property, porta potty, and site was very well maintained. Absolutely beautiful space. We’re already talking about returning so we can check out Olympic National Park since we didn’t know it was so close!
