We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Squirrelville cabin. It’s a peaceful slice of Southern Oregon forest with many thoughtful creature comforts while still providing a down-to-earth (“Welcome Aliens” 🙂) in a 100+year old cabin. Cam is a wonderful host and was respectful of privacy during the trip while making sure we had great directions for arriving at the cabin. We can’t wait to find time to come back down and continue our adventures!

What a great cabin and Cam and Christine were wonderful hosts! They got us all checked in and then left us to ourselves for two days. Wonderfully dark and quiet location. The kitchen had absolutely everything you could ever need Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Whitetail Cabin at 'Back of Beyond'
We had a great time and the hosts were amazing. It’s such a beautiful location and a good in between for exploring that part of Oregon. The only downfall being the inordinate number of mosquitos making it impossible to enjoy the beautiful property and the close surrounding area for anything outdoors. We were literally dashing from cabin to car!! We were told that we happen to time our vacation over Memorial weekend with the flying devils hatching. I would definitely check into that before traveling. However, our hosts did everything they could to help, supplying tiki torches and mosquito zappers. I would highly recommend this beautiful location when the flying terror has passed.

Second time to Squirrelville and it of course did not disappoint. Lots of good hotspringing was done and Cam went above and beyond to accommodate our trip dates with his packed reservation schedule! Will be back

The Cambell’s cabin was perfect! Secluded with just the right amount of roughing it. Water for the sink was available in 6 gallon containers, excellent drinking water in a glass container with a spigot and outdoor shower. Furnished with everything you need! I will be back again.

Squirrelville is just incredible. Everyone should experience it for themselves! You leave feeling relaxed and recharged. The hosts are wonderful people who truly think of every little thing! Forever grateful for this trip! We would absolutely love to come back! We left a little piece of our heart here for sure. Thank you!!

This place was perfect. My friend and I wanted a place for a quiet getaway and this was just that. We holed up for the weekend and were so cozy. We kept the fire going and enjoyed listening to Cam’s music. His dog Suki even came to keep us company one night, she was the sweetest thing ever! Plenty of firewood to keep the place warm, everything you need to cook with, lots of music, books, games, puzzles, art supplies, etc. The electric stove pulls a lot of power so you can’t use both sides at once, it takes a little creativity to make meals that need multiple pots/pans, but definitely doable. We kept the fire roaring and we were able to use that stove to slowly heat things up/keep them warm. We wanted to make cookies but were unable to get the toaster oven to stay on, so we cooked those on the fireplace, too, it just took a while! Would definitely like to come back again sometime. Thank you, Cam!

How I want for Christmas is .... staying at the Squirrelville cabin!
Can and Christine were the unexpected highlight of our trip in the cabin. Their warm welcome and passion for the Oregon outdoors made our stay even more special. Their cabin is super homy with lots of boardgames and books to unwind. Comfy bed and couches, Christmas lights, hot chocolate, and hikes in the snow. Really, there was no need for anything else.
We'd definitely come back to see the wild flowers.

Cam was a fabulous host and I had such a great time staying at the cabin. The communication was super easy and quick and I found both the location and the cabin to be much better than the photos. The location is ideal - private and peaceful but not too remote and easily accessible with a passenger vehicle. It made for a great base camp while I spent a couple of days exploring the nearby forests/hikes. Cam was extremely helpful and gave great recommendations for nearby day trips. I felt lucky to have found such a great place to stay and the night sky was truly something else!! Would absolutely recommend to stay there!

Cam and Christine's wonderful cabins truly provide the "quintessential" cabin experience in a very interesting part of Oregon not many people know about. The Oregon Outback is high desert territory, with few people, lots of critters and interesting vistas. Less than an hour away is Hart Mountain Antelope Refuge, which features much wildlife, and ! stunning ! sunsets. This whole area, perhaps due to the elevation, features amazing sunsets. While on my way to, or while at the Refuge, I saw an immature bald eagle, a golden eagle, a coyote stalking mice, and a small group of mule deer silhouetted against the persimmon sunset and silvered lake as I exited the Refuge.
Cam and Christine are gracious hosts, and are onsite, through a screen of trees, for any questions that may arise. Be sure to check out the CDs of Cam's amazing original "Oregon" music, a wonderful, therapeutic balm for the soul.
One other thing to note is that within a couple hundred miles, there are THREE hotsprings -- Surprise Valley near Cedarville, California, Hunter's Hotsprings in Lakeview, and a natural rock-walled "soakin' hole" at the Hart Mountain Refuge, so if you have a little time for your trip, you could do a hotspring "tour."
DO note that Squirrelville has no internal plumbing, no bathroom or running water.... The larger cabin, Whitetail, does...

Campbell is extremely hospitable & lovely. Our stay here was private, quiet, & everything we were looking for & then some! The only thing we would have changed is how long we would’ve stayed because how in love we fell with the cozy cabin & the nature surrounding it. Already planning our next stay here!

Enjoyed meeting hosts Cam and Christine. Squirrelville is HipCamp deluxe. Hot outdoor shower. No indoor plumbing, FYI. Fresh spring water provided. Enjoyed a quiet morning reading on the pasture side bench. Good freshly paved cycling road, as well as lots of gravel and dirt mountain bike roads. Note that the Oregon Timber Trail section near cabin is unmaintained. Would be good for cross country skiing. though.

This place is a slice of heaven. It’s absolutely a gem. I’m saying this at the risk of making this place a bit less exclusive, but I honestly don’t care about that and want other nature lovers to experience the beauty of the cabin and the utterly sweet hospitality of the owners. The cabin literally is equipped with everything possible to give you a remote, relaxing, tranquil and cozy feeling. The kitchen is gorgeous, with a vintage stove and fridge. The outdoor shower is amazing. The views are magnificent. We drove to Hart mountain, dipped in the hot springs and just enjoyed walking around the property. This part of Oregon is beyond beautiful. Last but not the least, Cam and Christine are the greatest hosts we have ever met. What a pleasure!

Whitetail Cabin at 'Back of Beyond'
This place was amazing. Is the perfect place for us to meet up with family from Nevada. The cabin was so cozy and furnished with all you could need. Just bring your own food. Very safe, quiet, and with easy to follow instructions to find. The hosts were very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable about the history of the cabins and the area. Definitely will be back!

I love Squirrelville! The cabin is as cosy as can be, a bit kitschy with all the different eras meeting each other. It is well stocked with tea, games, books, and music. We slept soundly, so soundly that apparently we slept right through some coyote noises! The outdoor shower was fun, and the outhouse fulfilled its function (what more can you ask for?). Lastly, Cam and Christine were lovely hosts. Loved hearing about Cam's career in music composition and performance and speaking in French with Christine. I encourage others to come explore the Oregon Outback!

Our small family of 3 and 2 dogs needed to get away and unplug. We were amazed at how remote and beautiful this location was! The hosts are the BEST! Very helpful, warm and informative. This is a great getaway to unplug and leave some of your modern creature comforts behind (which aren’t missed).
Gorgeous, quant, sweet and fun!

Squirrellville cabin is a dream come true! I want so bad to live in Oregon now! Our hosts were the kindest sweetest couple and had the cabin all ready with towels and chocolates and the heater all warm. It's in the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The sunset was like none other and there's just acres and acres of land with no one else. The cabin is so cozy and comforting and it has beautiful antique stove and fridge. Also our host cam has his own music that you can play that feels and is Oregon. I loved loved loved this place. It was refreshing for the soul. Just what I needed.
