This is a 24 acre farm with about 3,500' of frontage on the Entiat River. The land's history has included use as pasture, orchards, and flower farm. It's currently identified as a USDA type silvopasture farm. The priority crop is growing native fir trees that will be harvested in 60+ years as lumber / telephone poles. During this time, the land will be grazed by a variety of livestock balanced to keep fields and animals healthy and productive. Using the National Geographic Seek App, the farm caretaker has of November 2026, has identified a total of 153 native species consisting of 13 birds, 6 reptiles, 10 insects, 96 flowers, trees, and plants, and 24 fungi / lichens. The current owners purchased the farm fall of 2023 from a family estate that owned it since the 1970s. It is considered a legacy 25+ year project to bring it back into full production. Currently, the land is undergoing Firewise work to clear it of fallen and dead trees along with undergrowth. Knowing fires sweep this canyon regularly, the goal is to minimize fuel and support the chance old growth trees will survive and provide maximum summer shade for returning salmon. During the 2026 grazing season, the NE pasture of 5 acres along the river has 9 Katahdin Sheep. In Spring 2026, 2 bison were added into the SE pasture of 7 acres that climbs the mountain along the west border. Additional bison plan to be added later in the year along with a herd of larger meat type goats. The current Caretaker has identified over 100 native species on the property of all types. These include eagles, osprey, red tail hawks, killdeer, owls, blue jays, chickadees, beaver, martin, American Dippers, blue herons, waterfowl, bats, mushrooms, deer, elk, cougar, bear, coyotes, bobcats, and a variety of other interesting birds and bugs abound. The entire farm is very private with very little traffic if any. You may see the caretaker out and about with a helper, but that’s about it. Any of the sites that you select will typically be very private unless you pick one around the tractor shop. The river has trout, whitefish, and three different types of salmon that travel the river.Come experience a private and unique opportunity to learn to auto / tent camp along a beautiful river on a startup Buffalo farm. These sites just opened this summer. It is a place for new campers to learn about site selection and safety, building campfires, and outdoor cooking. All sites are very private and perfect for birders, walkers, mountain bikers, naturalists, mediators, naturists, musicians, writers, dancers, poets, and others who enjoy nature, quiet mornings, star-filled nights, wildlife watching, and a genuine connection with the land. Because this is an active farm, camping locations vary with the season and farm activities. In general, guests can choose from several level, comfortable camping areas located within 20–50 feet of the river. Often we host only one camping group per night, allowing you to enjoy an unusually private and peaceful riverside experience. Please know campsites are not in a Buffalo pasture. The farm offers approximately 3,500 feet of river frontage, with a walking and biking trail along much of the property. Guests can explore the river, relax on their own private beach area, enjoy sunny riverside rocks, or climb up and find scenic viewpoints overlooking the canyon. Additional connecting dirt roads extend in many directions for those wanting to explore by bike, foot, or vehicle. Rising dramatically to the west is the Glacier Peak Wilderness, with peaks reaching over 9,000 feet. Tent and car campers have access to a flush toilet located in the farm equipment shop, or a river expedition toilet with an exceptional view. A unique feature of the farm is our freshwater “hippie hot tub” — a simple, rustic soaking tub located beside the caretaker’s barn where guests can relax while enjoying the surrounding scenery. (Water drains naturally back into the farm field.) This is a start up farm focused on raising grass fed meat such as bison, goat, and lamb. The bison are fascinating, intelligent, and enjoyable to watch, but they must always be treated with respect. Guests will have the opportunity to join the caretaker for a daily fence check and guided walk on the farm and along the river. For the safety of both guests and animals pets must remain on a leash, or under the control of owners at all times. A dog getting close to a pasture may be viewed as a threat by the bison and invite a charge. Pets are not allowed in animal pastures. For a variety of reasons mosquitos are rare on the river and very little standing water. Our caretaker provides camping lessons and is an experienced outdoor guide and educator.

We had a perfect stay at Crescent Farm. Grun (and Cathy) were wonderful hosts. My daughter and I had a throughly enjoyed Sweet Tea, the farm dog. Grun was considerate, helpful, and a wealth of knowledge. The setting is very peaceful and was just right for our purposes. We will return in the future.

What a special place! We stayed here for a couple of nights with our camper van at the end of a long road trip, and it was exactly what we needed. Nestled in a rugged, beautiful valley with only a handful of homes, it felt wonderfully remote. The nights were incredibly dark and peaceful, and the only sounds were the river and the surrounding wildlife. The riverside campsite was perfect for cooling off, exploring with our dogs, and doing a little fly fishing. While we're pretty self-contained in the van, Garn went out of his way to let us know we were welcome to use the bathroom, top up with potable water, or plug into power if we needed anything. We didn't end up needing much, but knowing it was available was incredibly thoughtful and appreciated. Garn clearly loves this property and shared fascinating stories about its history and the incredible effort to restore this once-forgotten piece of land to its natural beauty. Seeing the bison was a highlight, and getting to spend time with the world's friendliest ranch dog, Sweet Tea, was the perfect bonus. We'd happily stay here again.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — toilets are available at Private Camp on River & Livestock Farm. Camp area follows Grand Canyon Raft Expedition River Toileting and pee in the river, and poop in your own toilet, or the tan river toilet (groover,) behind the single pear tree. This toilet uses sawdust as a composting base and is rotated out to decompose for a year or two when 50% full for a fresh can. Each can is good for about 50+ uses. Please do not use wet wipes as they will not compost. Use only toilet paper. A bottle of Castile Liquid Soap is in the toilet box for hand washing in the river. Enjoy the view.
