While the Farmstead is tranquil, you may hear farm equipment occasionally from the neighboring farms and on our farm. We do have workers that access the Raspberry Fields from the driveway on our property and, unfortunately, we cannot predict when they will be working in the fields – our work on the farm is controlled by nature

The Main Farmhouse also offers a charming apartment. (We reside on the upper level of the Main Farmhouse). This offers 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths with a large living room, kitchenette, and private patio. Or if you are into Tiny Living, our Tiny Farmhouse is also available.– and they are listed on Airbnb, a great option if you have a group vacation.

While the campground is located within a shared space on the Farmstead. You will see us working in the garden and around the Farmstead, and we also have guests from the other accommodations, including several RVs and tent campers during peak season. We provide just 9 sites in total so there's plenty of space for everyone.

𝗖𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

The guests must supervise any children at their party at all times. The property is a working farm with electric fences, machinery, sharp tools, livestock, and other items not present at a typical lodging facility. Renter is responsible for ensuring his or her own safety, and the safety of any children in the rental party, and assumes all risks associated with staying on the farm.

If you have any questions or need assistance during your stay, we live on the Farmstead and are always available to help. Our aim is for you to leave fully relaxed, refreshed and with incredible memories that you will cherish forever!

Thank you,

Glen and Lisa

Peaceful and beautiful farm stay

When I read about this place on the Dyrt and realized it was a good place to spend the night before boarding the ferry to Orcas Island (and with a 10% Dyrt Pro discount!), it was a no-brainer to stay here. This is a working farm with beef cattle and an extensive garden. Glen and Lisa welcomed us when we arrived around 5 pm on a sunny day in August. 

The sites are on grass, and each has a fire ring and picnic table. The tent sites are located behind the RV sites. We had originally reserved a tent site as we did not need electric, but the site assigned to us had low-hanging trees and would have been a problem for our pop top. We could have made it work but Lisa put us in Site 4. The only thing that might sway me from a 5-star review is that the sites are close together with no real privacy between them, but since Glen and Lisa have thought of everything else campers might need, I’m sticking to the 5 stars. 

There are two porta potties that were very clean, an outdoor shower stall, and a utility sink stocked with hand soap, dish soap, paper towels, and a garbage receptacle. There is even hot water, a welcome amenity. Although we didn’t use it, laundry is also available. Ice and firewood are available, and you can purchase meat. I opted to pay $3 to fill a basket from the garden and my yield included tomatoes, carrots, peppers, and fresh herbs. There is an information cabinet with brochures for area hikes and other activities as well as restaurants. 

After dinner, I took a walk around the property and along one of the roads lined with cornfields on either side; this was a chance to digest my dinner and take some photographs of the surrounding mountains. The next morning before leaving nearby Lynden, we made sure to stop at Just Desserts for a triple berry pie and HUGE cinnamon rolls, one of the recommendations in the information binder.  

This was a peaceful place to stay, and Glen and Lisa were very welcoming. We’d love to return.

Peaceful and Quiet Retreat

What a fantastic place to camp.  If you can grab site #1.  It is a little separate from the rest and looks out over the raspberry fields.  Site is all grass with a great table and updated hookups.  It's all level.  The people there are nice - they sell some great meat from their grass fed cattle.  There are fantastic gardens where they let up pick some fresh veggies.  It's close to Lynden, Bellingham and the coast right near the Canadian border.  If you have time drive east to Emerson or Demming - great ride through the farmlands....

Nice farmstead and friendly, accommodating owners

We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow, were meeting friends in the area, as well as Mt. Baker. We were in site 6 for 4 days in early September. Most of the campsites are nice and grassy with trees, but fairly close together. Ours was gravel and apart from the others, but did not have a sewer hookup. The whole campground was very well maintained and cared for. They also have meat(Wagyu), veggies(in season), eggs and merchandise for sale as well. Terri enjoyed visiting with the animals and harvesting from their small garden. The owners, Lisa and Glen, were very friendly, accommodating and responsive. AT&T coverage good, ranging from 3-4 Bars of 5G with speeds up to 18 MB/s. Their WiFi was respectable with speeds up to 1 MB/s, but we did have to reconnect a couple of times when the service stopped working. We were able to get DISH coverage on all three western satellites at our site. There were 12 OTA channels to be had with our fixed omni antenna.
