Retreat to relax at Chuckanut Hills Farm and Campground, a 20-acre energy-regenerative, off-grid family farm nestled at the foot of Anderson Mountain and surrounded by thousands of acres of forest. 30 minutes south of Bellingham in the Chuckanut Mountains, the only finger of the Cascade Mountain Range that reaches all the way
to the Salish Sea.
This wooded forest is part of the Puget Lowland Forest Eco-Region. These hills were the native home of the Saquantch people, a Salish coast tribe that fished and hunted the mountains surrounding Lake Whatcom. They lived in long lodge homes and were later pushed out by the invading Lummi Tribe. The Lummi Tribe was later pushed out by Western logging companies, and the entire mountainous region was heavily logged for a number of years.
Where our farm now rests was once the second of many logging camps built by Ed English, and he cut our gravel farm road in 1900; a railroad ran through the lower part of our property, taking logs from Lake Whatcom down to the little boom town of Seattle.
Our intention while being caretakers of this ancestral land is to restore native plants, raise heirloom produce and heritage animals, and provide a restful nature paradise for people looking to spend time in the outdoors.
Both she and her husband were lovely hosts. They’ve been thoughtful about how the land is set up for the users. You can see the guests from many spots but we felt it to be private nonetheless. I felt like the animal thing, while totally important to share, was nice. In fact, I loved their presence and found it additive. Best part is the black kitty who’s the friendliest little thing I’ve met in years. We were in the area to mountain bike. It was VERY convenient to Galbraith while also feeling very remote - that’s rare.

This place is magical! Stunning views; lovely well cared for farm and animals. The sauna is a highlight. The host Andrea, was extremely attentive and generous. We stayed at the beaver pond site and awoke to site and sounds of gorgeous wood ducks on the pond. We highly recommend this site!

A campground you won’t forget 😍
Tent · With kids ·
Wow! It’s hard to know where to start. This property/campground was amazing on so many levels. The hosts are so kind and welcoming. The abundance of wild life is to die for! We saw a beaver, cats, kittens, dogs, guinea fowl, roosters, chickens, sheep, turkeys, rabbits, dragonflies, and ducks. We even had a black kitty sleep with us one night (by our choice) he was so sweet and was nonstop purring.
We camped at site 1, near the pond and had an excellent view for stargazing and relaxing near the water. I expected to hear more frogs/toads but I think we only heard one little guy? And from site 1 you can hear the roosters, but they were not obnoxious and I’m a bit of a light sleeper.
The hosts provide fire wood and tools to create your own kindling and a LOVELY herb garden.
We brought two kids so we didn’t take advantage of the sauna, but we took a peek inside and it’s very well put together and I’m bummed I missed out.
We have added this place to our list of summer getaways and will be back next year! 🫶🏻💕

The camping experience was really great. We were lucky to have Site 1 next to the pond. The kids learned how to paddle around and had a great time exploring. Andrea and Gary are great hosts and try to make the experience special for everyone.
