Learn more about this land: Slippery Creek is available year around. Located 30 mins out of Enumclaw and 45 mins to Crystal Mountain ski resort and 1 hr to Paradise Mt. Rainier. SlipperyCreek sits on 4 acres of old growth forest and has a creek that runs along side it. The crystal clear creek is clean enough to drink from and runs cold even in August…. But I swim in it anyways. SlipperyCreek has many cool projects in mind for creating a place to camp, so if after your stay. If you want to come back and take on a project I’ll knock off 50% on your stay plus I could also be talked into BBQ hamburgers if your bring the Salid. The project list: Build fire pits, trail maintenance and building, Tent platforms, outdoor shower and ambiance lighting. SlipperyCreek has two camping areas: The Forest sight has un-level ground and plenty of room for a trailer, good tent camping area can be found, Oh ya….. Hammock camper this back area has giant trees….. just assume lay down and looking up 200 ft and the trees disappear. Hammock campers please note hammocks will be required to use straps vs rope. This Forest sites sits back 200 ft from the creek so if you have little people… You will also find a dried up creek bed to explore. The max turn around length is 30ft. This could also be a group camp site… 1 or 2 trailers and 3-5 tents, but you need to call to make these arrangements. The River Beach: This spot has a rock pad that can handle 30 ft RVs, or two smaller trailers / camper vans. This site is still being developed, and you can hear car traffic but it’s on the river so the noise just white washes away. This spot gets good sunlight even though the tree line surrounds this area. This site currently lacks an area for a square tent , but narrow two person is fine . This spot has some great places to meditate or just lounge in the bean bag hut next to the river. More about the property…… I just dare you to take the plunge…. It only a little chilly. Make sure you keep your eyes open when walking the river because you can find petrified wood. Sam my daughter is one of those crafty people so look around for painted rocks., she leaves them all over the property. Please only 1 rock per kid… including the big kids too. Upon arrival you will find an upper driveway ( my place) and a lower ( please honk and let others and myself know your here) the river beach sites is on the left side.

Guests appreciate Billy's warm hospitality and the peaceful setting, though some have noted issues with the campsite's maintenance, particularly the cleanliness of the toilet facilities. The proximity to wildlife and occasional miscommunications have also been mentioned, potentially affecting the comfort of tent campers. Despite these concerns, many visitors find the location ideal for a peaceful retreat close to nature.

Beautiful site, one complaint

15 ft campervan

Billy & his dog came to greet us and show us to our site and talked a bit about the area and gave some recommendations. There was plenty of room for our 20ft campervan. The site itself and down by the creek were scenic and nice! I would recommend this site for all those reasons, but there was one huge exception — the toilet has not been emptied or maintained in months. Porta potties aren’t a big deal to me usually, but this one was a no-go.

Billy was very helpful with instructions to the property and fun things to do around the area. Directions were simple, and we loved being able to eat dinner down by the creek!

Thanks

Great place, great vibe, nothing but nature all around you. We went to sleep with the sound of the wonderful creek, just meters away from us. This is a perfect spot for nature, lovers

25 ft travel trailer · Group trip

Overall was a great time with friends. Outhouse needs to be clean if that's an offered accommodation, very full, no toulet paper.. There was some random trash scattered, but we just picked it up while we were there. Neighbor was friendly when driving through, and campsite was easy to find. Creek behind was great for the dogs and nice to fall asleep too.

Nice spot to car camp

16 ft car

Check in was a bit confusing, and it took some time to get in contact with Billy. I car camped, and the area was nice and level. It was fairly quiet and the noise from the highway wasn’t noticeable due to the buffering of trees and white noise from the river.

Love the Creek!

The campsite is in a beautiful location. We loved being by the creek! I would recommend bringing mosquito repellant and would prepare for other bathroom accommodations. For bonus convenience there is a bar/restaurant just a few minutes down the road. There’s a lot of cool areas around to explore. I would stay again for $30!! Thanks Billy.
