About your trip

Camping under madrone trees, night kayaking, searching for bioluminescence, lunch on a farm, cider tasting, farm stand hopping, juicy fruit, backyard suppers, guided hiking, chef-prepared dinners, beach picnics, beautiful vistas, Mount Rainier, prepared breakfast, lawn games, flower farms, and lots and lots of beaches.

Does this sound like summer camp? We couldn’t help but notice the similarities…I mean, we’ll be walking distance from the beach, soo….

Our campground is on private land surrounded by madrone trees. There is an outdoor shower, composting toilet, cedar sauna, cold plunge, fire pit, happy chickens and a gentle farm dog, all walking distance from the beach.


Need a tent? We have 2 person a-frame tents for you to rent for $50
Need a ride from the ferry? We’ll pick ya up!
We kept the price low to get all the campers and kayakers we can for this festive weekend. Let’s party.
