Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
Glenada was incorporated in 1912 and disincorporated in 1922 after the town's sawmills burned. This side of the river was pretty bustling before the Siuslaw bridge was built in 1936, being quite a transformative event considering the ferry from Glenada to Florence was the main way across the river. River View is located up on Glenada mountain, on the upper level of our three-acre lot. We have a free-range farm atmosphere, with 2 children, 2 large dogs, a cat, and 12 chickens. We allow Hip Campers to bring animals on the property with the understanding that they are good around children and other animals, as our kids and pets are often running around the land. We have firewood bundles and farm-fresh eggs available for additional fees. THERE IS NO TOILET on the property. This is not a tent camping site unless you have your own porta-potty set up. This is a beautiful rustic property close enough to Hwy 101 to be convenient but far enough away to enjoy all the wildlife the Siuslaw River has to offer. Bird watching at its finest! Not to mention the view of Old Town! Learn more about this land: River View is located on the upper level of our three-acre lot. We have a free-range farm atmosphere.

We allow Hip Campers to bring animals on the property with the understanding that they are good around children and other animals, as our kids and pets are often running around the land just below the campsite. We offer firewood bundles and farm-fresh chicken eggs for an additional fee. THERE IS NO TOILET on the property. This is not a tent camping site unless you have your own porta-potty set up. This little slice of rugged heaven is just above the Siuslaw River and right off of Hwy 101. There is a steep gravel driveway but once at the top, it is flat and the view is pretty amazing. From camp, you can see Old Town. Gaze down at the Siuslaw River and all the wildlife that comes with it! We regularly see deer, red tail hawks, ospreys, and bald eagles. We have also had a bear that passes through, so beware of leaving food out. There are plenty of places to hike and visit nearby dunes, rivers, lakes, parks, and the ocean. Enjoy Florence's amazing food (ask the host for her favorites). Walk down to Old Town for dinner or bring back take-out and eat it in the tiny house (no electricity or running water). Take a short walk to Pricket state park for clamming or just relax with a book and feel the breeze off the river.  Whatever you enjoy, we’re sure you can find something close by! No bathroom or running water but there are 2 electrical plugs (110V and 220V) available.River View is a little slice of rugged heaven just above the Siuslaw River and right off of Hwy 101.

We had a great stay at River View. Beautiful view of the river at the top of a nice bluff very close to town. Highly recommend

Peaceful, scenic, safe, and quiet!
Campground at the marina was full and thankful to find this gem! Great spot for a camper van and with a pup. Stayed for two nights. A bit of a slope to get up (gravel driveway), but large and level area to camp— plenty of room to turn around and settle in with a view up above. Appreciated the electric access and little studio space (but didn’t use it in the nice weather I had).

We just stayed here for 10 nights and loved it. Yes, there is highway noise but it really quiets down at night and we both slept really well -and I am a light sleeper. We loved the occasional visits from Caramel and Chai and just wish they would have visited more. These dogs were so quiet and well behaved. Christina and family were delightful and welcoming and yet provided privacy and we hope to return. Thanks Christina!

Great overnight stop!
Great overnight stay in a peaceful setting with a very gracious host. Christina met us just after we had set up and all worked as advertised. We even got to see some of the meteor shower at night and pick some very tasty blackberries. A great stop!
