Erosia is 13 acres of wooded lands and boasts a couple of truly unique features. We honor our trees, especially the one with the woman's figure in her trunk, with her arms held up to the sky. We call our big leaf maple Blessing Tree "Ambrosia of Erosia". We also have a 45 ft memorial labyrinth we're still working on, but is walkable (3 times in and out is nearly a mile).
We are 1 hour away from the ocean at Ocean Shores (near Aberdeen) where you can drive and hang out on the beach, fly kites, book a fishing trip, etc. We are also about an hour away the other direction to Lake Cushman where one can swim or hike up to the Staircase area where you will enjoy old growth forests. It's only half an hour to drive to Olympia to enjoy all the foods, the state capital buildings with museums, an award winning Farmer's Market, etc. An hour gets you to Tacoma, and with good traffic Seattle is an easy day trip with southern locations accessible in an hour and half. It's 2 hours to Portland, if you go south. It's easy to say we're CENTRALLY LOCATED and most all of western Washington is accessible with a day trip.
We are still developing our lands. Currently we DO NOT have potable water onsite. Please pack in all the water you need and use the swimming hole and/or our local YMCA for bathing needs. We do have a portapot onsite for a toilet. We are working on putting both picnic tables on each campsite. If you need table(s) or chairs please ask as we are happy to lend if we do not have a big event happening where we need them. Each site offered here has a fire pit with a metal fire ring to sit around and roast marshmallows. We can provide fire wood or provide your own.
Karl and Sarah run a business making spiritual tools and gifts from wood from their shop(s) on the Land so they are around most of the time to answer questions and get you settled in. (www.rareearthdesigns.net) Right now they are working out of temporary shops as they work on building the permanent shop building. (There is no loud building noises currently, though. It's quite peaceful upon the land of Erosia.)
Our 45 ft labyrinth will be finished this year and eventually will be completely wheelchair accessible and available to be walked with day passes. ~Right now it is NOT fully WC accessible, though.
More on our structure: The service-side of our Land Sanctuary is organized as a non-profit and donations to the creation and/or caretaking of the labyrinth over $50 we gift a memorial brick one can set in the labyrinth. Our for-profit business, Rare Earth Designs, donates the engravings. We will eventually have a retaining wall that can be used for seating and the labyrinth will be available to rent for weddings, memorial services and other ceremonies as well as regular walking meditations. This HipCamp site, though, is Sarah's personal business as she currently owns the biggest part of the Land and is basically the orchestra director of the Land as the "Lady of the Land".
We're still growing and developing the Land, our Services and our shop and would love to show you what we are working to create.
