Nelda's campsite offers a tranquil escape surrounded by lush trees and wildlife. The site is praised for its peacefulness, privacy, and the kindness of the host, Nelda, who goes out of her way to make guests feel at home. Visitors appreciate the clean amenities, like the bathroom and cooking gazebo, and the option for electric hookups is a plus for camper van travelers. While some noted slight slopes at tent sites, the overall experience is positive and relaxing, making it a great stopover between Seattle and Portland.

Really adorable little place. Nelda was wonderful and very kind. We will probably stay again when we get the chance. There are do trails on the property, and close by to some other ones as well.

I loved camping on Nelda’s land! She was very welcoming and accommodating. It was such a peaceful spot, I loved being around all of the trees. I was also offered extra food she made and it was delicious! The bathroom was also very nice. I would recommend this spot!!

Staying on Nelda's land was some great much needed reflection time. I was able to camp at the top of the big hill the first night. If you're looking for more sun and a bit higher ground, this is a great option. I then camped down the hill the second night -- which is extremely private and surrounded by forest. It's a really great spot for reflection, solitude and privacy. Nelda is a gracious and communicative host, who will make your stay feel both safe and valued. Thank you again Nelda and hope to stay again soon!

We stayed 1 night. Just set up our tent next to our car to keep things simple. It’s a very peaceful place, quiet at night. The washroom was nice. Nelda was very welcoming. We enjoyed going to restaurants and antique shops in Centralia.

Cool Under the trees
We enjoyed camping on Nelda’s land. She was super responsive and kind. The walk in spot at the bottom of the hill looked really nice but we got in late and didn’t feel like carrying everything down so we camped right by where our car was parked. This was still quiet and relaxing, and we had a great time!

Cool Under the trees
A peaceful area to hang out and watch wild life (eagles, bunnies and does with fawns!). Electric hookup was a special bonus for our camper van. Would love to own something just like it.

Cool Under the trees
We had a great time tent camping on Nelda's land! We were the only campers there. The site was as advertised. Easy access from the road. Also convenient from Chehalis and Centralia. We really appreciated the flush toilet and hang-out gazebo with a prep table for cooking. Thanks!

I felt safe as a solo female traveler at Nelda's. She was a super friendly host. I didn't take advantage of any of the amenities she offered, but was nice to have the options. Directions were accurate, though I always hope for a little sign that indicates a hipcamp spot just so I know I'm in the right place.

Amazing stay! Nelda is awesome! We booked for one night to Tent, and it was raining pretty heavy so Nelda offered us her cabin on site for no extra charge so we didn’t have to be stuck in a tent in the rain. She went above and beyond and it was a beautiful area/pleasant stay. Definitely will be back if we are in the area again!

Cool Under the trees
My wife and I stayed in a tent at Under The Trees , on our way up to Olympic National Park. The pros , the site was very quiet and secluded and Nelda was very quick to respond when I called to inquire where the restroom was. The cons , the tent site was in a nice spot under the trees but was sloped a little to much. There was a nice spot for an RV that was level with 30 amp service. I would stay there in a RV but for me personally in a tent probably not.

It was great! The property was what it showed, and I had especially good dreams. I would stay again just for the dreams. Nelda was extra kind and gave me more than I asked for.

Parked our pod for a peaceful night on the edge of a lovely PNW forest. Nelda was communicative and provided all the needed support. We will visit again. Thanks again Nelda!

So perfect and peaceful! We booked Nelda’s tenting spot at the last minute, and she was so communicative and welcoming. The spot under the trees was so serene, the bathroom was clean and convenient, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. We’ll be back for sure!

Cool Under the trees
I really appreciate that Nelda’s place was available last-minute! I had been to two state parks in the area and both were closed. I was afraid I’d have to cut my trip short. But I booked and got settled in less than an hour! I camp in my van, but it’s not a camper van, so it was a treat to have access to a warm bathroom with hot water and sink for washing up! Just 10 minutes from I-5, and fell asleep listening to the frogs.

Under the Trees was the result of a last-minute decision to extend our trip home. I am new to this service, and I discovered Nelda is as well! We got to be her first customers. We have a 27-foot Class C RV (the kind that looks like a pickup coming out of a box). We managed to have some difficulty finding her place but that was not her fault, it was Garmin’s. Evidently the addresses were changed sometime back, and Garmin didn’t catch the change. We contacted Nelda. She was quick to respond (a major credit to any host because of the decrease in anxiety for guests). We only needed power and when we were having challenges connecting, we again contacted Nelda and she quickly responded. It is obvious she has great plans for her site. I would love to go back in a couple of years to see what she has done. I can tell she is a very creative person. And gracious as well. She came over to greet us in our RV after she got home following our arrival. I give Nelda’s place a big thumbs up. Oh, and Nelda, I’m a retired professor of public health nursing so when you mentioned your son, it gave me a warm feeling.
