Located about 100 yards from East Willapa Bay, Bay Center Sacred Forest Camp and Retreat is a special rustic "work-in-progress" spot for small gatherings, guest retreats and forest walks. We honor and recognize the local Native American Chinook Tribe who has been on this land for many years. This area is known for oysters, clams, and salmon. Only about 20 acres, our front area is open pasture field with roaming cats, chickens, farm animals, a large garden and community fire-ring. In the middle of the field, you will find the opening to the forest. One of our young guests commented that it is a "magical forest". We think so too!. Enjoy 15 acres of private forest with walking trails and a few special camping spots for tents, hammocks or a car/van.

Beautiful, Friendly, Acommodating
Paige and Hugh were extremely accomadating and answered all of our questions about the surrounding area. Their campsites are nestles in the woods giving great privacy and a real "in the woods" camping experience. I highly recommend their campsites and we will be visiting them again when we camp in that area next year!

I love this place: the land, the people and the animals. There are sheep, goats, dogs, cats and chickens. I was able to choose my tent site out of several ranging from shady and wooded to more open. Fresh eggs was a great treat. Don’t forget to order eggs! Long Beach is a short drive away, and some really nice state parks and nature reserves. Highly recommended and very relaxing which was what I was looking for.

We enjoyed our stay in Bay Center! Our favorite part was getting to meet some of Paige's animals, including cats, turkeys, goats and a lot more. The location is about 45+ minutes away from Long Beach, and maybe 15-20 minutes from South Bend. The area was foggy/smokey when we visited but I think the views would be amazing otherwise. South Bend is a super cute town, we visited a coffee shop and a German food store. Paige was a very nice host, and consistent and quick communicator. The one con about this site was the animal noises late at night. The first night, the rooster started his call super early (like maybe 2 or 3am?) and didn't stop for a long time. The second night, a dog (not sure if it was theirs or a neighbor's) barked for a few hours and then the rooster started in (but stopped after a few minutes). Ear plugs or headphones might be a good idea, particularly if you are a light sleeper. Overall, really enjoyed our time in the oyster capital of the world!

Paige was very kind. We loved seeing the animals on the property and it was easy to socially distance with the few other camp sites on the property. It’s a very basic campsite with access to bathrooms but no showers. Thanks Paige!!
