Mitch and Michelle is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

We are Mitch and Michelle, and we welcome you to our little slice of Heaven. While we are working hard to be good stewards of this beautiful land, and growing produce to be sold at local farmers markets and through other community-based channels – we also love sharing this hidden gem with visitors. Our 30-acre property is a turn-of-the-century homestead, featuring a Heritage listed barn, located on the Thurston Bountiful Byway, and just minutes from the HWY5/Exit 99 - yet private and secluded. Bordering a state park – with a mix of wetlands, prairie grass and forest – we offer both RV full hook-ups and dry campsites. Great for digital nomads, families, travel nurses, solo retreats or small group gatherings - safe, secure, serene, and enjoyable! Come to relax, have some fun, or both! Welcome to Summit Farms! WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT HERE: ~Our 115 y/o Big Red Barn is a sight to see! Not only gorgeous and unique, but a cool place to hang out. A perfect indoor spot for morning yoga, a quiet place to read, board games, a group meal, or some tunes and a game of pool on the slate table! We also have a 10ft screen, projector, speakers, mics and dozens of DVDs (or bring your own) And for a small additional fee, we can set up a movie and/or karaoke night. Please ask for details. ~We are just a few minutes’ drive from Millersylvania State Park, where you’ll find amazing trails, a lake for fishing, swimming and paddling, a seasonal snack bar and beer garden. ~There is Room To Roam. Our place boasts plenty of open space for walks, outdoor games, kiddos to run around, and secluded sanctuaries. Toss a ball with your youngster, play an unforgettable cornhole tournament, or just wander about, pick a spot and let your senses take over - a perfect place for quiet reflection. ~ If you pay attention, you’ll enjoy much wildlife not just on the ground, but in the air and waterways! Depending on the season, you’ll spot frogs, butterflies and dragonflies, eagles, hawks, garden snakes, rabbits, salamanders, herons, dozens of wild birds – of course the greedy deer families stealing apples and bedding down at dusk – and much more! ~Here, you’ll see Wide Open Skies! So, we don’t have the shadiest campsites around… but during your stay, you’ll never miss any of the sublime beauty above

Dry Site 3 - Gingergold Orchard

We had such a wonderful time staying at Summit Farms. Mitch and Michelle were so welcoming. Our boys loved playing pool and on the instruments in the barn. We also enjoyed spending time in the bamboo forest and exploring the different areas on the farm. The sauna was also so relaxing! We will definitely be coming back!

Dry Site 4 - Miller's Grove

What a lovely spot at the end of the lane! We loved our dry camp site on grass by a little seasonal creek where my dogs say the drinking water was excellent. Every person we met, whether working or staying on the farm, was friendly. We enjoyed exploring nearby Millersylvania State Park, cooking with local food from the Olympia Farmers Market, then being serenaded by the frogs in our cozy beds in the meadow at night. Thanks Mitch and Michelle. We'll be back!

Dry Site 1 - Blackberry Grove

Summit Farms was an idyllic setting and Mitch was a fantastic host! Our troop of traveling high school students needed camping accommodations at short notice during the off season and Mitch was more than happy to provide us with as many amenities as he could provide. We were set up with a fire pit by our tent camping location in a quiet field with toilet access, potable water, and the event barn just a short walk away. We spent our afternoons enjoying the billiards table and projecting a film in the upper level of the barn while we ate some dinner, and we spent our evenings cooed to sleep by the ribbits of frogs, the clicks of crickets, the hoots of owls, and the distant songs of coyotes. Mitch went above and beyond to ensure our positive experience. He even came to our rescue when we attempted to take an unwise shortcut driving out of the field and found our tires buried in mud. He helped tow us out that morning and when we returned for our second night of camping he had done us the courtesy of marking all soft mud spots in the field with bright orange flags that directed us on the best path for entry and exit of the campgrounds. A sublime experience with exemplary service. 5 Stars.

RV Site 5 - Walnut Trees

This is one of our favorite places to stay when in the Olympia area. Mitch was kind enough to invite us to stay even though he was more or less closed for the winter season. The grassy sites accommodate RVs quite nicely, with all the hook ups. The grounds are beautiful with old trees, open fields, and wetlands. It’s a good area for birdwatching, and our three cats enjoyed rambling around a little as well.

RV Site 3 - Walnut Trees

Friendly host, clean site, portable bathrooms were also clean. The upstairs barn area is super cute, we walked around up there, but didn't spend time beyond that. I really liked the sewer hookup, it had the ability to use our existing latch connection so we didn't have to stand there with a foot on it making sure it didn't pop out. That was nice! All of the hookups worked without issue. Thank you for the firewood!
