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.
