100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
There is no restroom facility so campers MUST have an RV with a toilet. Sorry, no tents or car camping. Only one RV at a time is scheduled, unless guests are traveling together, so you’ll have plenty of privacy! (More than two people are welcome.) The huge graveled area makes turning around super easy, and there’s a pretty view to the west over a grassy field toward the sunset and a partial view of Mount Baker to the east. The barn is picturesque, though there are no animals on the property except for two indoor cats. The RV site has water from the faucet outside of the barn via a 100-foot white drinking water hose. There is a new 30 amp RV style electrical hookup, and a 20 amp household style plug-in located on the side of the barn. Electricity is an additional $5 per night paid in advance. There is a 100 foot heavy duty extension cord available. Benson Road is narrow with a deep ditch, so it isn’t suitable for walking or biking, but traffic noise is minimal. The property sits directly across from the Lynden airport. While planes rarely take off or land here, it’s fun to watch when they glide in to land. On most days you might see three planes, with a few more on Sunday afternoons when people return home. The property is a flat 1,500 feet long, making it great for walking. It’s also a wonderful spot for dogs to run and play, though since it’s within Lynden city limits, dogs must remain under immediate control or on a leash. Quiet time is strictly observed at 9 p.m. A campfire area is available in the farmyard, with a charged hose required to be on hand. The owner will try to provide firewood and newspaper for starting fires, but availability isn’t guaranteed. Conveniently located, the property is only a 4-minute drive from charming, flower-filled (in season) downtown Lynden and the Northwest Washington Fairgrounds, 6 minutes from the main grocery shopping area, and about 5 minutes from the Canadian border crossing. It’s a 30-minute drive south to Bellingham, 30 minutes west to Birch Bay and other waterfront destinations, 1 hour 15 minutes to Anacortes (gateway to the San Juan Islands), and 1 hour 20 minutes east to the Picture Lake Viewpoint on Mt. Baker.You will be the only people at this site which is situated on a 5 acre farm. If you are traveling with friends in their own RV they would be able to stay, too. Terrific area if you have pups with you! Gorgeous downtown Lynden is just a 4 minute drive away. This is just a very quiet, safe place to park your rig and then go exploring. Nice star-gazing from there, too!

    Lovely view. Kind host. Quiet punctuated only by the occasional small plane take off or landing - such fun to watch!

    Wonderful just. Quiet, BEAUTIFUL, location. It was just what we needed for some much needed downtime with a gorgeous little town to explore. Plus it was fun to watch the planes!

    Glad you liked the planes! I just wish there were more because I love them, especially when they are gliding in to land. I tell people that I don't have any amenities but what I do have is peace and quiet since I only have one camper at a time (unless people are traveling together). Oh . . . and very often there are beautiful sunsets.

    Mary Lou was great and her spot was so easy and very peaceful! Will absolutely come back! Nice that there is only one spot so felt like we had the place to ourselves.

    • Amazing view of Baker!

    I tell people that I don't really have any amenities but they have the place all to themselves so it's nice and quiet, there's plenty of room for dogs to run, and there's usually a pretty sunset.
