The Best Pet-Friendly Camping Near Colville National Forest, Washington

Welcome to the Ranch!

Leave the noise and bustle of urban life behind, and settle into the peace and beauty of our off-grid ranch in Washington’s enchanting Kettle Range. Dark skies make for unparalleled stargazing!

Our Ranch is located 15 miles north of Republic, WA in Ferry County. Just a scenic 30-minute drive further north is the Canadian border crossing at Danville/Grand Forks, BC.

We love hosting campers! A Resource Book is available to borrow, offering ideas for local businesses and recreation. We are happy to help make your stay at our Ranch special!

On the day of your booking, we will reach out as to your ETA. We always greet and escort you to your site, so please arrive as close to Check-In time as possible. If you will be delayed, please be courteous of our time and let us know by calling our landline: 509-775-0204.

NOTE: It is 3 1/2 miles on a dirt county road to reach the Ranch; at various times of the year it is quite bumpy (and dusty)!

If you have questions about the campsites please let us know. If all sites are booked, contact us anyway- we may be able to create a spot just for you! We have room to grow but are doing it slowly.

Each campsite is very private, but the sounds of neighbors in the valley below do travel during the day. This is also a working Ranch so please be aware that there are sounds associated with our activities (although far above the campsites)- the livestock gets excited at feeding time; the dogs bark while doing their jobs, sometimes during the night; the rooster announces the break of dawn. However, none of that detracts too much from the soothing music of the forest!

- Take in the native flora and fauna on our self-guided "Woodland Walk".
- The Ranch is perfect for bird watching and stargazing!
- The Ranch borders State Land and is within 1 mile of the Colville National Forest which means endless miles of picturesque hiking and wildlife viewing! The Ferry County Rail Trail is a must-do.
- Swimming, fishing, boating, and water skiing are only 15 minutes away at Curlew Lake State Park and the Kettle River.
- One bundle of firewood, 15 gallons of potable water, and a compost toilet are included with your stay. BYOTP though!
- Ranch-grown eggs and organic produce for your meals are seasonally available for purchase.



WILDLIFE: There is a wide range of wildlife around the Ranch- snowshoe hare, grouse, turkey, bobcat, Canada lynx, coyote, cougar, wolf, and black bear. Please use common sense while camping! Always be aware of your surroundings. Keep garbage properly secured. - There are also ticks in the area!

Gold Mountain RV Park

This cozy, partially screened guest hut is situated on 200 sweeping acres of pastureland and steep, rolling hillsides. Floor to ceiling windows on the east side allow for a gorgeous view of the mountains and the lovely night sky. Composting toilet and hot water shower with equally impressive views. Enjoy the view, hike, bike, horseback ride, relax by the creek, swim the Columbia or Kettle River and fish Elbow Lake. So much to do and all super close or actually on the property! Hut is 100% off grid.

Iron Mountain Ranch features the owner's hand built straw bale house which is run off solar power, a friendly herd of horses along with a few cats and three dogs. (look up the ranch social media accounts online for additional pictures).

Since this hut is built with partially screened walls and partial solid walls, you should consider the season when requesting a booking. I will accept bookings starting on May 1st but even in May the night time temps can be cold. Checking the local Northport, WA weather forecast can give you an idea of what weather we will be expecting. Please consider this luxurious tent camping as there is no heat source in the hut, no electricity or running water. Please bring lanterns, flashlights, headlamps etc. We provide a small charcoal grill but please bring your own charcoal. We also provide a two burner propane cook stove but please bring your own propane canisters.

The futon is a queen size and I can provide sheets and bedding but prefer you bring your own if possible as we have no laundry facilities on the property.

\*\*\*There is a very limited supply of potable water on the property so you are required to pack in your drinking and cooking water. Dish washing and shower water is provided.\*\*\*

In the early spring and late fall we cover the screened walls of the hut with clear window plastic so that the nights are not very cold inside the screen house. We provide a propane buddy heater that is safe for indoor use to help keep the space warm for you.

Utilize the unique composting toilet, our own design which became the first approved toilet of it's kind in the county. A hot water shower with equally impressive views is close to the straw house but still as private as you need it to be.

Horseback riding is available upon request and for an additional fee.
