Feeling your inner Chris McCandless calling?

Then step into the wild at the remote Divide Well Campground. Located in a meadow speckled with pines and surrounded by firs, it’s pretty likely you’ll have all eleven sites to yourself. After you’ve donned your flannel and chopped some wood, head over to the nearby Potamus Point Interpretive Site for some sweeping views. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a member of a reintroduced herd of bighorn sheep. The best part? It’s all free! Of course, that also means you won’t have the luxuries of water and garbage disposal. But toilets are a go! Sometimes you don’t want to leave all of home’s comforts behind. Check website for closures. Tip: There are no developed trails nearby. We said it was remote, didn’t we? All the better to embrace the thrill of exploring the unknown.

Haystack Ranch

17 sites · RVs, Tents500 acres · Spray, OR

My family has owned the ranch since 1977. We bought it from my parents a few years ago to keep it in the family. We love living here, and although it is just the two of us working it, we are slowly getting it to what we want it to be. The house we live in is over 100 years old and used to be a stage coach stop back in the late 1800's to early 1900's, You can still see some of the old stage coach roads on the property, and we are trying to preserve those the best we can. Also in the early 1900's this ranch used to be the place to go on the fourth of July. People from all over would bring their prize horses to compete in a horse race for the name of the fastest horses around While others would bring picnic baskets to set back on the knoll in one of our fields to watch.

Pitch a tent on the pasture and literally count the sheep around you before falling asleep or climb the hill and see for miles in every direction. We may be close to the road, but it doesn't feel like it. We can accommodate campers, RVs, trucks, tents, and vans. 4 sites to chose from. Each site has access to a toilet, potable water, shower, picnic tables, trash disposal, and we allow campfires (outside of burn bans), and pets. We also sell fresh eggs, firewood, and lamb sausage. Our guests love staying with us: "There’s fireside fun in fresh country air, rolling hills around the farm to walk along to enjoy the wide expansive view, and sights and sounds of animals around camp to make for a relaxing day.
