Occasionally you will hear noisy air traffic or train crossing the tracks, but it is rare. We may have other campers using other campsites on the property. Please note that during the week, you will most likely have the entire grounds to yourself or shared with only a few other groups for a more private experience. Although not as busy as we were during the 2020 and 2021 camping season, on summer weekends, expect to share the 5 acre grounds with other campers, on holiday weekends guests will experience a more social festive atmosphere. Quiet time is 10 pm, as the property is shared with other guests and the owners live on site, please consider others on site after dark. If you arrive after 10 pm head straight to the tent and make yourself at home, solar lights mark the path to the trail used to access the tent. The property is next to an airfield so it is urban bright at night, by no means pitch dark. We are in the wild west and guns are common in our neighborhood, people target shoot and shoot predators attacking livestock including unsupervised wandering dogs, however there are no guns on the property listed. Due to livestock and coyotes watch dogs carefully when off leash. Dogs are not allowed in or near the tent, while in the campsite, they must be crated, in the car or tethered away from the tent. If you have an unaltered male dog he may find my spayed female Coonhound irresistible, please keep intact male dogs on a leash or supervised with an e-collar so they don't follow her to my house. Dogs that do not have recall or are prone to wander will be asked to stay on a leash at all times. We offer pony rides, farm tours, cow milking, our farm raised ground beef and steaks, farm fresh eggs, and Inflatable SUP rental to paddleboard Medical Lake 10 minutes away for additional fees.
