Velvaere Nordic Spa Campsite
We enjoyed our stay and Nordic spa experience on Brett and Jen’s property. The campsite was strategically secluded from their main house by a stand of tall trees. We originally missed the turnoff as we were arriving late in the pitch dark - you are looking for a sign that says “Velvaere campsite” - if you’re in the driveway and see “Spa parking” you are in the wrong place! Everything was as described - they have a very clean compost toilet, an easily accessible hose, and their dog Sage is very friendly, energetic, and cute. We also did the Nordic spa experience the next day and it was as refreshing and relaxing as promised.

Velvaere Nordic Spa Campsite
Property was not as described. Hosts could not have possibly been any less welcoming. Beware if you are considering this place. Maybe they were having an off day. Nevertheless our experience was terrible.

I was in a tent. The site would probably be better for an RV. When I packed up, my tent had wet sand all stuck to it.
Then I tripped and fell down into the driveway. The driveway is filled with large pieces of very sharp gravel, so I ended up with pretty bad road rash. Obviously not their fault that I fell, but at a regular campground, or dispersed, there wouldn’t be sharp gravel.
When I arrived, the host greeted me, and then proceeded to mow his lawn next to the camping area. I was setting up my tent with my elderly mom who has hearing aids, and she couldn’t hear me over it.
The composting toilet smelled of urine inside, but at least you couldn’t smell it from the table & chairs right next to it. No worse than a vault.
The spot felt a little exposed, even though the host home is behind a row of trees that separate the yard from the camping area. The area is visible from the dirt road that you take to get there.
The main road is right off the dirt road. Traffic going by was very loud, until late at night, then started up again early in the morning. Didn’t feel like I was in nature, just in someone’s yard, by a busy street.
The second morning, I heard a neighbor kid playing with a remote control car, and then his dad shouting f-bombs at him for playing in the street. This was the kind of noise I was trying to avoid, or I would have stayed at Kitsap Memorial. Again, not the hosts’ fault, but kind of a bummer.
On the up side of noises, I did hear a barred owl at 2am.

What an amazing hidden gem!
We really loved this cozy Nordic style spa near the Port Gamble MTB trails.
The hosts are super friendly.
Can't wait to go back.

We loved the stay here in our B+ RV. It is a lovely and tranquil spot. We were welcomed by the hosts who came by to make sure we had everything we needed. Very well maintained with a compost toilet, 15 amp electricity and water. Very level parking spot, once past the very slight slope up the short drive.

Velvaere Nordic Spa Campsite
Jen and Brett have created a really great space on their land. The campsite was clean and well thought out with string lights, electric outlet, water spigot and composting toilet to make your stay more convenient and comfortable. You need to understand that you are fairly close to their home but you do have adequate privacy and the neighborhood is very peaceful. You may hear their children playing in the yard and sounds of dogs barking occasionally, but that's country life and we enjoyed it! We also very much enjoyed visits from Sage, the family's 9 year old schnoodle, she was so sweet and also very protective of her land which made us feel extra safe. We really enjoyed exploring the whole Northern Kitsap peninsula from Kingston to Hansville to Port Gamble; the spot is in a nice central location on the northern peninsula. If you want to explore all the area has to offer and have a really nice space to camp I highly recommend this spot!

Incredible vday experience curated by these wonderful people and their luxurious spa. If you’re into the alternating cold plunge and sauna experience, this is a must try! Their camp site is also relaxing and private, nestled under tall cedar trees and string lights to set the right vibe. Big enough for a long trailer or RV, while open to tents as well. The ground is perfectly flat for both your RV/trailer/camper as well as the two tent spots. Will definitely be coming back!
