New update , I don't currently have enough firewood to accommodate everybody . I'm working on it and hopefully we'll provide that service in the near future but in the meantime I have an address of a friend that sells firewood bundles for $5 each very close by . This is their address . 3904 Tillamook River Road. Please be careful when using Google maps, for whatever reason it has taken several people to other places other than mine. I posted a picture of the entrance of my property, hopefully this will help. Hurlys Hideaway is a very nice location located approximately 2 miles from the town of Tillamook. Very close to the beach Sand Lake various Rivers for fishing kayaking swimming Etc. Approximately 4 MI from Netarts Oceanside area, Netarts Bay, Cape Mears. A very nice location to be able to access all of these activities in Tillamook County. My land is Timber, some clearings, we'll see how this goes I'm just getting started. Also, I just learned that the transient tax for Tillamook Oregon is an additional 10% and I hate to do this but I'm going to have to raise my prices $5. If you are coming from Town, I'm 2 mi. from the hospital west on hwy. 131. Look for the purple Minnesota Vikings bus shack. I also put up a hipcamp sign just up my driveway a bit. If you are coming from the south on Fraiser road, turn right when you come to hwy. 131. I'm less than a quarter mile on your left. Also a heads up lately I've had a few people that are having a hard time booking and I learned from another camper if you're staying one night you actually have to select two days it includes the day you check out I just experienced that with another camper so just a bit information I don't know if hip camp changed something or what, but if you're staying one night select two days and it'll work.

The grounds were spectacular! More wildflowers than I’ve ever seen in one place, and too many Hydrangeas to count! Patrick was a great host, he came to check on us as we were setting up camp, and could not have been more accommodating. I would recommend this Hipcamp to anyone, and would love to come back some day soon!

Someone in another review mentioned that this place is magical, and I don't want to steal their words, but I myself kept using that word the entire weekend that we were here. Everything about it felt like a dream -- from the wildflower meadows to the many birds and bees to the ethereal rosebush pathway (where bunnies would hang out!) to the massive hydrangea fields.
Our campsite itself was perfectly located on a pretty secluded circular driveway. We had an incredible amount of privacy and it was very quiet (I don't know if this changes if you stay there on a wedding or event weekend). There was no need to level our camper at all, and there was plenty of room for any kind of camping -- whether you wanted to pitch a tent or have multiple cars with you. We had enough wifi at our specific spot to stream movies late at night.
Seriously amazing! We are already planning a way to get back there this summer.

Loved this campsite! It was perfect for me and my pup. So very secluded and I did in fact hear waves at nighttime, was very peaceful! Travis was very easy to communicate with and I was able to book same day as I was heading out to the coast. Very glad I ended up at his campground!

This is the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen. Even the dog looked around amazed… this site is surrounded by wildflowers and Mountain View’s. It’s secluded, yet close to the small barn which is wonderful if it rains, nice to eat lunch in there and get water. Would highly recommend if you want an experience of a lifetime. You’ll never forget this place. It is stunning! You’d be lucky to marry here. Thanks for hosting me, I cannot even imagine the time, effort, and love put into this place. We’d love to come back and stay in the hydrangea’s.

The owner is Dave Sears. He’s really a nice guy. He keeps the camps in excellent shape. My favorite part is being camped right between a lake and the ocean. He has builta good dock on the lake with a bench to sit on. Two minutes later, you can be on the beach eating your lunch. Really a fun place to stay.

We stayed at the "Wallace" site. It is right next to the lake. Loved that is very close to the beach, just a couple minutes walk across the road. The llama and sheep are really cute! Dave, the host, was friendly and answered all our questions. The nights were nice and quiet. It is on our favorites list of camping places! Hope to return.

Cute quiet small campground! They have a couple tent sites and the sites are small as a heads up and not much to separate you from the other sites. Luckily I was the only one there during my stay so I had plenty of space for my dogs to get some space to run around a little
The campsite was a great location to all the activities and hikes I was doing and it was so nice to have a clean bathroom/shower to use to clean up at the end of the day
I’d definitely recommend even if you are just stopping for the night

A wonderful camping site next to a lake (one can swim in) and right over the road from the beach (which has beautiful sunsets!!). It is a pretty windy location and can get cold even in peak summer, but if one take enough clothes it’s beautiful :)

Dave’s care for the land, animals, the sites and guests is apparent. Such a lovely thing to witness and experience. Thanks Dave! (Forrest too)
