The Place

Four generations, one unobstructed view.

Once covered in old-growth fir, this family farmland has raised potatoes, raspberries, nursery stock, and four generations who love the country life. Because neighboring farmers kept the land in near-original condition, Robert and his wife enjoy the same panoramic splendor today that Pops had in the 1960s when he built this house.

The campsite is surrounded by trees with a seasonal creek. The view of Mt. Hood stretches unobstructed across prime Oregon farmland all the way to the rugged foothills of the Cascades. Less than an hour from 2.5 million people — yet the coyote you hear at night has no idea.

Wake to quail, heron, hawk, and the occasional deer. Pick blackberries from the brambles. Follow the creek-side trail in the morning quiet. This is campfire therapy under the stars.

What guests say.

"Got up happy every day we were there, looked out our window and there stood Mt. Hood in all her glory."

"Rob's property is filled with blackberries and other fruit trees — he allowed us to pick the fruit, and my husband even made blackberry juice."

Amy B. — August 2024

Shady Blue

"Spaciousness of the land, sweet solitude, hearing the frogs chirping in the evening, gorgeous full moon, birds singing in the morning — and a unique early view of the majestic Mt. Hood."

Joy B. — May 2026

Melissa J. — November 2024

Quail Sunrise

Minutes to everything worth doing.

The Host

Robert E. — Sandy, Oregon

Robert and his wife are the fourth generation to work this land. The farm has grown potatoes, raspberries, and nursery stock; now it grows the kind of quiet that's genuinely rare this close to Portland. Robert is attentive at check-in, available if you need him, and otherwise leaves you to it. He'll help you back your rig in, carry firewood if you ask, and point you toward the cut-flower shop up the road with bouquets at prices that make no sense. He wants guests who can hear themselves think.
