Hi we’re Glen and Lisa Oostema – the proud owners of Oostema Farmstead, a working farm located a short drive from Lynden, WA. You will roam the 117 acres. We have raspberries and field crops that surround the Farmstead. You will also find our herd of cattle as we raise Grass-Fed Wagyu here on the Farmstead. We have loved sharing our home, and the Farmstead with many guests, turned friends, from all around the world! It is indeed our priority to provide a comfortable, beautiful, and peaceful space for you. But most importantly, we hope you will find rest and relaxation close to nature with a glimpse into a slow living pace, and we hope to share that experience with you through your stay. If you have difficulty with anything, do not hesitate to let us know, and we will be more than happy to help you.

Lovely stay
We had a lovely time at Oostema! It was an easy drive from Vancouver, and the barn cabin was basic but very comfortable (even had a space heater). We were able to use the grill to cook up some of the Wagyu beef from the farm. It was also lovely to sit out at the fire pit and look at the stars at night. Our dog loved running through the berry fields too. Lisa was a detail-oriented and kind host. We will definitely come back :)

We had the most relaxing weekend on site 6! Waking up to the cows and birds was so therapeutic. The hosts are super welcoming and helpful. We never felt stressed about our stay at all. We are definitely coming back. The town also has some awesome eatery’s that made the trip even better.

New barn cabin at Oostema Farmstead
The barn cabin is very cozy and perfect for 1 to 2 persons with a queen bed. Lisa's flower and vegetable garden is on the side of the barn. There is ample parking for our van

Beautiful place to stay on our way home from Canada. We grabbed dinner in Lynden and headed over to camp and use the outdoor shower. There is a beautiful flower garden, we saw owls at at dusk and heard coyotes in the night. Check in was easy. Would definitely recommend!

Great dry camping spot out in the field away from the barn and RV Park. Very quiet spot! Lisa not only guided us to the area, but then stopped by later to make sure we were doing okay. Three rigs were parked there the night we were there and we all chatted, but none felt we were too close to each other (plenty of space). Rough drive so go slow, but level spaces. Cows wander by in afternoon and evening. You can pick up a couple of alfalfa cubes in front of the barn to feed the cows. We bought some eggs and meat from her, too! We plan to return soon!

I really enjoyed staying on Lisa's farm. The atmosphere was very relaxing and reminded me of my childhood when I would stay on my grandmas farm. There is so much to do on the farm, and in the area. Everyhting is very clean and the hosts are very nice. I recommend reading the blogging instructions, even if it can seem like a lot, they provide lots of useful information about the area. I really enjoyed my stay here.

Almost don’t want to share…
You know when you almost don’t want to share a review because you had such a wonderful time, you don’t want others to know how great it was so it will always be available for you? That’s me right now. This place is amazing. Farmer Lisa is fantastic. The barn is great. The camping area is great. Even the restrooms were great (turns out clean Portapotties aren’t terrible places to do your business!). So do book your trip, just don’t book everything up when I want to be there!!! :)

The best part was how friendly and very helpful Lisa and Glenn were. They helped us out on last minute needs just like family would. The place was perfect, clean, well kept, and stocked. The scenery was beautiful from foreground raspberry rows to eastern snow covered peaks. I’d stay again in heartbeat.

⭐Stunning Mt. View’s, Peaceful~Calm
A lovely, idyllic place! Peaceful, quiet, and the views are indeed magnificent. Be sure to get some fresh eggs, and get some Wagyu beef burgers to grill. Phenomenal! The pet animals in the barn are delightful to feed treats to, and the firepit is soothing to sit by while enjoying the sunset. Lisa and Glen are wonderfully gracious and welcoming hosts. They will happily tell you anything you’d like to know about the land they’ve proudly worked for many years. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed Our Stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our three nights at Oostema Farmstead. Lisa and Glen are kind and gracious hosts. Lisa delivered fresh eggs and ice to us and Glen answered our city slicker questions as we observed a newborn cow calf and mother. Site 2 felt private and is nicely shaded which we were grateful for during the historic heatwave.

Perfect Family Getaway!
We LOVED our stay at the Farm. So much, that we booked our next stay prior to check out. Everything was perfect, Lisa greeted us in the driveway upon arrival, ensured we knew right where to park, get everything we need (firewood, etc.) We even bought some farm fresh eggs and sausage for our breakfast one morning. The second day she gave us a tour, we met the animals and went out in field of raspberry plants. The grounds were well kept, the sunset was incredible - we can't wait to come back again! Lisa and Glen go above and beyond to make sure their guests are comfortable and have everything they need.

We had a lovely time (despite it being rainy) at the farm! My kids loved feeding the sweet animals. The outhouse was nice and clean and appreciated that there was sink too.

Great spot to rest up.
What a great stay. Lisa was absolutely wonderful and the perfect host. Easy in and out. Welcoming and warm hosts. Beautiful views from the lawn chairs and really nice neighbors around us. We walked forever with our dog through the fields of raspberries and enjoyed the small town close by. Fantastic stay and we will be back!!

We had a lovely stay at the farm. We got to feed the animals and pick produce to eat during our stay. The flowers were beautiful and the views of the sunset and valley were breathtaking.

Quaint farm with friendly hosts
It was neat staying on a farm! My family and I loved the animals, the little garden, and the beautiful views of the cornfields and mountains around us. We had as many apples and pears as we could eat, and even bought some of their ground pork sausage and ground Waygu beef to make meals onsite!
