Phil and Theresa are great! I'm glad I was able to come back before heading south. My pup needed to release some energy, and they graciously allowed him to sprint around their fenced acre! It was great catching up and talking about our summer trips. I hope to come back next year!

We only stayed the one night but wish we could have stayed longer. Theresa and Phil were wonderful hosts. They were so helpful and welcoming and it was really nice to sit and chat with them. As mentioned, it was easy to get to and park and a nice level area. We felt super safe and it was so relaxing. We set up chairs out front and watched the sunset with a glass of wine. In the morning we just moved the chairs over a bit into the sun and sat and drank our coffee. Totally enjoyable stay. Thanks, Theresa and Phil. We hope to see you again.

Phil, Theresa and pup Molly at Oregon Woods were amazing host. Phil & Theresa are actually founding members of Boondockers Welcome and have been hosting people at their home for over ten years now. Theresa gave us some wonderful bounty from her summer garden, the tomatoes and cucumbers have made for some fresh salads in our travels since our visit. This was our first visit to a Boondockers Welcome site and we couldn’t have asked for better host! The sight was easy to get into by design, as you pull up a 100 foot driveway hugging the left side and then you make a full circle turn and back towards the right garage door as Phil guides you back into position. Then there’s a 30 amp double surge protected power outlet and a water connection is available if needed. It’s a perfect gated - fenced property for kids and dogs to run around in safety for hours of fun and enjoyment. Thank you Phil and Theresa for your kind hospitality during our visit first visit to Oregon Woods, we’d love to visit again! Joe & Sallie Schafer Seattle WA, BW members since 8/2022

Very enjoyable overnight stay. Communication was clear and timely prior to my visit. Phil & Theresa greeted me warmly on my arrival, and kindly offered water and 30 amp hookups. I enjoyed the use of their lovely backyard, with the shade trees much appreciated on a hot August day. My experience at Oregon Woods could not have been more pleasant.
