Owned the last 100 years by only two families. The Weber family was the last to own and operate the farm for over 60 years. House was built in 1917 and the barn was added in 1925. Legend has it Bing Crosby sang in the barn himself after a long summer bucking bales in Cheney. We are close to Turnbull Wildlife Park and a few local fishing lakes: badger lake, williams lake, and amber lake. The town of Cheney is a great place to stock up and bicycle the fish lake trail.

Palouse Stargazing RV-Camp

99% (82)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 10 · Vehicles under 40 ft
This is for the back-in flat gravel RV ''pad" near the Windmill, with access to untested well-water spigot, 30 Amp RV-electrical hook up, and a 110 GFI outlet.   Metal fire pit, picnic table, and a flat packed dirt-grassy area for tents if needed are also at RV-Camp.(sorry, no RV dump available but some folks have used rest stops or the Maverick Fuel station in Airway heights for free dump service) Other listings at our farm property: Palouse Stargazing CarCamp would be roughly 100 yards further down the driveway near Blue Shed.  TentCamper parking is in front of Red Barn with TentCamp sites outback up in the field/pasture. -------below is info on a few local lakes and attractions----------- -TURNBULL NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE: 8.9 miles to gate entrance; nature trails and many small lakes for wildlife viewing -BADGER LAKE: 13 miles to public boat launch and restrooms; Kayaking and fishing. -WILLIAMS LAKE: public boat launch and a small resort on the lake.  Check out BUNKER'S RESORT -STEPTOE BUTTE: 36 miles one way, with some beautiful paved farm road alternate routes available from our farm. -PALOUSE FALLS: 2 hours drive via St. John, Lacrosse, Washtucna (you can actually pass through Hooper, where I grew up)  We highly recommend this route instead of going through I90 and Ritzville)

Hello HipCampers, this is our CarCamp listing: please feel free to check out our RV-Camp listings if they better serve your needs with power. Yes, your tents are welcome here too. (We have BARNS CATS! They are too! Friendly so please treat them like squirrels and don’t leave your food out! Sorry. They are great mousers and they will hunt down a ham sandwich or hot dog in minutes) Bullet points: -very LITTLE cell service/ no wifi -your tents are welcome on grass, sleeping in car/van okay on the flat driveway -one outlet available for phones or charging gear on the side of the barn. -bring dry fire wood if desired -BARN CATS! are too lovable and too friendly BUT treat like squirrels as far as food! You absolutely have our permission to SHOO them away. -ROOSTERS! we have sold off many, but it only takes one for an unwanted 4am cockle doodle doo. Bring ear plugs if desired Read Below for a BUNCH of info:  -This is to specifically reserve the BLUE-SHED area car camp (#2 on the google earth site map) (to reduce numbers, I've closed off the second ''carcamp'' site, if your group-unit needs more space, just ask at booking or reserve a TentCamp Site 1 for roughly the same price as extra guests) PRICE-The small price difference above TentCamp reflects reserved amenities for CarCampers at this specific site: picnic table, fire place, old simple charcoal grill,  cooler(no ice),mowed grass, blue farm spigot to rinse dishes, easy accessibility from your car: ten steps from parking spot. -It's like going "car camping" at a state park, concert, road trip, etc.  but without a neighbor 5 feet away.  Park at blue shed, pull out your tent and gear, and enjoy the farm setting surrounded by 1000s of acres of our neighbors wheat, peas, lentils, or barley. PARKING:  As a CarCamper, we appreciate it when possible for folks to park close to the BlueShed on gravel, right at the edge where the mowed grass and dirt/gravel meet. This will help with compaction and keep grass alive.  This will put your car about 10-30 feet from where you choose to put up your tent. (VW bus style campers, feel free to inquire about van parking)  PRIVACY: while you will be the "only" CarCamper, there may be an RV guest 100 yards away.  There is some privacy at CarCamp with blue shed, corral fence and grasses in the summer, but there really are no mature trees or enough hills for total privacy. BYO: dry wood, ice, and pop up pooper if desired (or walk 400 yards out back to dig a cat hole by the corner property line BUT it really is about 400 yards away) SHARED AMENITIES: metal wash basin, and hopefully a flat mowed meadow near pond for your yard games when we can keep up with grass. If needed, we can share our propane grill up by our shop. BOOKING TIPS: if you have more guests than 8 or want to stay longer, we can talk about that through the messenger or in person. We aren't set up for entire season camping of 3-6 months, but could accomodate for hunting or traveling nurses, etc -More info below, some repeat info: This is to reserve the mowed grass area at the BLUE SHED and currently beige shed and old red barn.  Flat grassy area for multiple tents next to shed, barn, corral, and an old white awning. CarCamp has a dedicated picnic table, fire ring, water spigot and cooler on site if you ask.(byo ice) --NO WIFI--    --cell service is very hit and miss: some texting may function -------below is info on a few local lakes and attractions----------- -TURNBULL NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE: 8.9 miles to gate entrance; nature trails and many small lakes for wildlife viewing -BADGER LAKE: 13 miles to public boat launch and restrooms; Kayaking and fishing. -WILLIAMS LAKE: public boat launch and a small resort on the lake.  Check out BUNKER'S RESORT -STEPTOE BUTTE: 36 miles one way, with some beautiful paved farm road alternate routes available from our farm. -PALOUSE FALLS: 2 hours drive via St. John, Lacrosse, Washtucna (you can actually pass through Hooper, where I grew up)  We highly recommend this route instead of going through I90 and Ritzville)
