This is a single campsite tucked up in the hills above Lyle and the Columbia Gorge. We had just one Camper Van but there is room for several vehicles. The site is very quiet, very private and has amazing views West to the River and North to Mt Adams. Our stay in mid-June saw a meadow full of wildflowers. Our dogs loved running in the grass too. Great site for those that want seclusion.
This is such an amazing location. We went right when the wildflowers were in full bloom! Was so peaceful and stunning!
We got there at a perfect time late May to witness the beauty of the wildflower bloom. Spencer was very considerate of our comfort and even brought us more mulch for our tents. The land we stayed on was very open and allowed for plenty of wildlife gazing and wildflower walks. I’d definitely bring binoculars next time since you can see for as far as humanly possible on top of the hill where we camped and even greater views up the 2 mile path to the summit of Stacker Butte. The wind was howling that high up but fortunately the shipping containers (soon to be for rent I hope!) blocked almost all of the wind. Thoughtful layout of the camping area and bonfire pit. It was such a perfect secluded spot for contemplation and conversation.
