My family bought this property from a wonderful man renowned in the world of plant pathology. My father once asked him, "George, what is the secret to a long and happy life?" George took a deep breath and exhaled. He smiled, a twinkle in his eye, and said, "Randy, (dramatic pause), don't worry, {another lengthy pause) don't hurry." We are fortunate to live here, and we want to share the beauty with you. Please stay here and take a moment free of worry and free of hurry. About the hosts: Camas and her father, Randy, co-host this property. One or both will be onsite at all times should any issue arise. Please message if you need a last-minute booking and it appears to be blocked. We can't do an "instant book," but there's always a possibility that we can accommodate you. About the site: This 17-foot 2005 Jay Feather Ultra Lite trailer is clean and cozy - perfect for one or two people. A third person is welcome, but it will likely be a little cramped. The double bed has a memory foam mattress and is made-up with quality sheets. Towels are provided at no extra cost. The kitchen has a 3 burner propane stove and oven, a small fridge, a microwave, and sink. Coffee, tea, tea kettle, French Press, creamer, and sugar are provided, as well as a few dishes, a pot and pan, and utensils. The spring water is sourced directly from our property and filtered, so you can enjoy it from the tap! In my opinion, it's some of the best water around - feel free to fill up before you depart. The site is set back from WA-State Route 106, but only by about 20 yards. There is traffic noise during the day, but it's not too bad, and it is typically pretty quiet at night. Hopefully you enjoy the sounds of wildlife ~ birds, lapping waves, and even a creek add to the experience. A panoramic view of the estuary is one of the best parts of this property. It's dreamy, really. With the tide changing every 6 hours, you just can't get bored. You may fall asleep to tide flats and wake up to what feels like a lake. If you like being on or in the water - bring some kayaks, surf or paddle boards, and some high quality water shoes (never go barefoot!). You will have access to 400 feet of private beach and tide flats. Kayaking is tide dependent - recommendations for paddle times will be in the binder. (Currently closed to harvesting 6/23) If you have your shellfish license, feel free to harvest a few oysters or clams (depending on DOH recommendations) . Be aware - it is a rustic beach, and it is across the highway, so watch for traffic and watch your step on the beach. Our house is within sight of the trailer, but you have to make an effort to see it. From our house, we can only see the parking spot, and due to shrubbery & a shed, we can't hear talking voices, so it is pretty private. We do have 2 very friendly, small dogs who will undoubtedly alert us to your arrival, but they stay on our deck and quiet down right away. A welcome binder and maps will help you get an idea of the area. For a tiny town, Union has a LOT to offer - there are several dining choices within a few miles. Union was even listed in the top 10 "Prettiest Towns in America" in Forbes Magazine in 2009! Learn more about this land: One of a kind view of the Skokomish Estuary and Olympic Mountains. Enjoy a different scene with the changing tide. Bald Eagles, Salmon, Great Herons. One night stays may be optional for an additional fee.

Magic mountains and sunsets.

What a perfect little hideaway! Camas has the trailer all fixed up, warm, welcoming and homey. She went above and beyond: fresh flowers, all the supplies of a hotel room, even coffee, creamers, and more. Plus the salt water and mountains! Seals, eagles, herons and more. The road is close by, but still very quiet at night. I can't wait to go back.

Would go back tomorrow!!!!

With kids

Super cute peaceful safe and right down the road from a marina seafood restaurant, cafe and shops. Up the road the main river. Beautiful views of the sound and the mountains. Host is amazingly accommodating. Went out of their way to find us boots to go explore in. Don't need to bring anything!!! Best part! Everything you need is provided and talk about the small touches. Fresh flowers a welcome package and personalized welcome letter with instructions and guidance to all you need on premises and amenities nearby. Would definitely do again. Just wonderful and the price you just can not beat!!!!!

Had an amazing stay here! The hosts were super welcoming and even had a sweet surprise for my birthday, which made it extra special. The views were incredible—saw eagles, seals, and so many birds. Just a really peaceful, beautiful spot. The fire pit was perfect for hanging out at night, and the whole vibe of the place was just relaxing and exactly what I needed. Great hospitality, great scenery, and just an all-around awesome experience. Would definitely come back!

One of my most favorite hipcamps

I am a repeat visitor to this hipcamp. Camas is the greatest host. She has thought of everything one would need to stay there. It is very clean and cozy. I go for the birdwatching and the views.

Staying at Camas' place was such a beautiful and memorable experience! The view from the trailer was absolutely breathtaking and we got to see many eagles, heron, and seals playing right outside the door while having our morning tea. Camas was incredibly responsive before and during our stay, and gave incredible recommendations (yes, you do have to try Olympic Mountain Ice Cream). The thoughtful touches to the trailer (like binoculars, coffee and fresh flowers) and Camas' excitement to share her beautiful community made our stay exemplary! We can't imagine staying anywhere else for future trips to the Hood Canal!
