MCF is situated 12 minutes NE of Shelton Washington with secluded wetlands nested against the SW shores of Spencer Lake. Covering over 124 acres MCF offers terrain from grassy fields to heavily wooded forests and an abundance of sanctuary wetlands. Being surrounded mostly by private timberlands expands the remote feeling this location has to offer. More than 3 miles of maintained trails deliver single track/ pedestrian/equine pathways to wider trails joined by a main trunk trail large enough for vehicles. Malaney Creek meanders through a cool grassy tree lined meadow where a 40 year old wooden bridge serving the main driveway can be viewed. Established in 1977 as a resident farm, MCF was once rich with an old growth ceder forest feeding a cedar mill and railroad built by early settlers of Mason County. Remnants of the old growth giants still remain.

Relaxing and comfortable
We stayed at Creekside and it was a great space perfect for our group. We got there on Saturday after a long day of disc golf in the area and had to leave a little early on Sunday, and it worked out well. It's just close enough to Shelton. We would've liked to have seen more of the farm and other amenities. We stayed up late sitting around the campfire. We never unpacked our chairs, the Adirondack chairs are clean and comfortable. Sleeping in this cozy area was fantastic. In the morning a deer walked by the cars. Really great to get out of the city for the weekend. This was our first time using HipCamp, and we're very happy with how it went. We hope to be back!

Well maintained beautiful space!
It was mostly very peaceful and relaxing. One of the days there was a boy (maybe host’s relative?) riding by on a variety of motor vehicles (electric mountain bike, dirt bike, ATV, etc) riding by our site throughout the day, but I think this was a rare occurrence and the host was quick to remedy it when we mentioned it. The kid was incredibly sweet and apologized for riding too close to me and even made a point to check in on us from time to time to make sure everything was going ok or to ask if we needed anything. He’s a future camp host in the making! We loved the amenities at the site — the chairs were perfect for relaxing by the fire. The host brought wood to our site when we notified them we were going to be late, which was really kind of them. The tarp was a nice touch if it were raining but I personally like the open air over the camp kitchen and picnic table. Although I appreciated it kept most of the leaves off our stuff! The overall property, porta potty, and site was very well maintained. Absolutely beautiful space. We’re already talking about returning so we can check out Olympic National Park since we didn’t know it was so close!

This place is a perfect getaway from the daily reminders of life! Quiet enough to fully relax but just enough distance sound to not be scared. The hosts are so nice and helpful! Beautiful site!

Great spot
What a peaceful property. The pride and work of the hosts really shows. We were fortunate to stay the first week of the camp store being open where we found some tasty treats. Loved the wide open space for our kids and dog to explore. We put a couple miles on the mountain bike exploring the trails. At the hosts suggestion we ventured out the wetlands trail and we happy we did. Really cool. Will be back for sure.

Nice, personable, and flexible!
Owners were very nice and personable. They were even flexible with giving us a later check in time! The camps were very clean and maintained. We had a great time and are planning on bringing a larger group next time!
