Eel river overlook

Great, cleared spot for our tent. We arrived after dark but everything was easy to find. Roscoe (little red dog) greeted us nicely. Season was super friendly and made sure we were set for the night. 10/10, would go back.

Eel River Perch

I had a great time here. Season was really lovely and helpful, lending me lamps and helping me start a fire. It's in a beautiful location and I went to sleep to the sound of running water. It was winter and I was super grateful for access to the barn, microwave and kettle to keep me warm. It was also great chatting to Season. I'd highly recommend this place

Eel river overlook

The host, Season, was very helpful in getting us settled. She continued to be very helpful throughout our stay. We hiked down to the river and found that the water was surprisingly warm. Roscoe the dog was smart and friendly. If you are a light sleeper, please be aware that there is some noise from the highway which is close by. Overall we enjoyed our time at Five Sisters Farm.

Garden look out

My boyfriend and I had a great time camping in the garden spot! Summer and her partner were extremely welcoming and we enjoyed learning about their business. We had an overall great experience :)
