This place is awesome! So much space and privacy compared to a state park. It was easy to get to and my dogs loved being able to be off leash at the campsite. There were port-a-potties, water, fire ring and a picnic table. Definitely would come back here

Shallow Springs Ranch was a magical place to explore and enjoy! From spacious well maintained sites, to amenities including clean bathrooms, firewood, local attraction guides, and even lawn games - this place kept us wanting more ♥️ Great experience, thank you!

Friendly host and lovely grounds. Great first hipcamp experience overall. I thought the instructions to get there were detailed enough, though my wife was convinced we were supposed to meet him further up the road to be shown to our site. We hadn't given an ETA (and had booked day of) so had to wait 5 min or so, but still an easier check in than a hotel. Just wish I booked a longer stay.

Kid/Dog/Family Friendly Experience
Great place to camp. Due to the limited number of spots it’s a great blend of having other people around throughout the day, but still feeling like you have privacy in your site. There are also great common areas with yard games for use. Porta potty’s were in excellent condition and fully stocked. Would definitely recommend to others, and would return again in the future.

An amazing, safe property for kids to run free and be kids in the outdoors. Your campsite was clean, manicured and isolated so that you had your own quiet space. The limited number of sites on such a large property makes this a special place that we will for sure return to with other friends and families. Thank you for creating such amazing space to enjoy. It provided a woods feel and close enough to the run into town or a beach.

Wonderful
Wonderful hosts and wonderful farm. We booked spot #2 and were sad to learn that a new spot had been declared as it. Thanks to the hosts help, we quickly moved to its prior location and were so glad we did. Great shade, enough light, fantastic

Camping at Shallow Springs was our first Hipcamp experience, and in a word it was wonderful, yes I would recommend to anyone and we would and probably will return on our next trip west. We were greeted by the host Joseph, who escorted us to our site, Cedar Grove; a secluded site among mature cedar trees, it could just as easily been a dispersed camping site on National Forest land. Portable facilities were convenient and clean, fresh eggs were available and Port Townsend was only 15 minutes away. Our 3 day stay was a great experience, thank you Joseph and Elisa for helping make our camping trip across country even more memorable. Charlie and Chris

Just my dog and I!
I love how all the campsites are really far away from each other!! And camping on grass is really nice. Even when it’s the end of the summer and not so green. My dog was able to play frisbee and ball for days without hurting her paws. I stayed 3 nights here and only left my campsite once. Very calming and relaxing place. I’m knew to pulling my camping trailer, and still figuring out the hole backing in. Joe had no problem backing my trailer into my spot. It was very comforting knowing that they would help me once I arrived.
I did book my next trip at the pull through RV site for next year. That big fire pit is going to be comfy!
There’s soooo much room for kids to run around without annoying other campers.
The information center was awesome!! I think every place should have one. Really good info on what to see that’s around you. Also felt super safe being a solo lady camper. I could go on and on….lol. Check this place out! You won’t be disappointed.

Pleasant, quiet, secluded campsite with deer wandering around. Site is close to Larry Scott bike/run trail that will take you to Port Townsend. Welcoming hosts - thank you.

Joseph and Elisa have carved out a sweet collection of campsites at their Shallow Springs Ranch. Situated on the back forty, the five appointed sites have their own distinct charm. We stayed at the "Fern Hideaway" site which afforded us ample room for our very large tent, modest camp kitchen, and one small dog. The campground amenities, basic but nice, included: a well-maintained picnic table and a simple fire, in addition to portable toilets with adjacent hand-washing station. And there is a network of mowed grass-trails throughout the property for a post-meal or meditative walk. Our experience during this stay has ensured our future return!

Shallow Springs Ranch RV Camping
The camp sites are far apart from each other and private. The RV site had a lot of room to accommodate our tent trailer and a tent. Very nice having two picnic tables and a large fire pit. Their ranch is quiet and beautiful yet close to Port Townsend and the state park. Joseph and Elisa were great at answering any questions with a quick response and showed us to our site when we arrived.

Relaxing campground close to everyt
This place was great. Campsite was full and don't think I ever really heard any other campers and rarely saw them. Roomy campsites and clean bathrooms. It was a real pleasure to stay there and can't wait till our next trip here. Also a short, easy drive to downtown Port Townsend and Fort Worden.

Camping Perfection.
This is the perfect place to camp! Beautiful, quiet and grass!!! Every campsite is grass- not dirt and rocks! Fantastic place to come back to after a sandy beach day.
Love the hand washing station at the bathroom. Fun field activities. Easy access to town, hiking, beach. Joseph and Elisa are so accommodating and kind. This was our second visit, and we can’t wait to be back.

Prívate, quiet, clean, so much more space and natural ambience than a traditional campsite. We brought bikes and were able to ride trails into Port Townsend and leave our car and tent trailer behind. Great location and the hosts were very communicative and once they greeted us and showed us our site left us to relax with offers to help with any questions if needed.

Best of Hipcamp : )
Such a wonderful setup and such great hosts. This was my 3rd time coming to Shallow Springs Ranch on my annual bicycle tour and it has been a wonderful experience every time. The site has been better and better each year. From the privacy and the fire pit, to the water and farm fresh eggs, just perfect accommodations. Joseph and Elisa are very gracious hosts and are consistent in their care for your best experience. Thank you! : )

Well kept campground and great host
Camping here was great! The grounds were well maintained, the hosts were communicative, welcoming, resourceful, and very flexible. Picnic tables were provided, and the bathrooms were clean! It's nice to have camped here as it was more than just a plot of land!
