About
Imagine rolling hills painted with the tranquil scenes of the Far East, where the whispers of the Willamette River complement the serene backdrop of the South Salem Hills. Welcome to an exquisite Tibetan-inspired retreat, where RV camping goes beyond the ordinary and welcomes you to a world where yaks and majestic Tibetan Mastiffs roam. This six-acre hobby farm in Salem, Oregon, is a unique fusion of agriculture and culture, offering a glimpse of Tibetan life amidst the tranquility of the Pacific Northwest.
As you set up your RV amidst this pastoral paradise, prepare to be embraced by an array of friendly farm animals. The playful bleats of goats and the soft clucking of chickens create a harmonious farm chorus. Embark on enlightening farm tours and connect with nature as you encounter ducks, geese, and cuddly rabbits waiting to be your newest camping companions.
The small farm store is a treasure trove of local produce and artisanal crafts, providing a taste of farm life and an opportunity to support the community's craftsmanship. Envision enjoying fresh eggs for breakfast or a warm, woolen scarf made with love, all sourced from the very land you camp upon.
Your stay promises to be rich with learning, as this host plans to offer workshops that delve into permaculture, "prepping", and the essentials of emergency preparedness. With classes on diverse subjects and visits from special guests, including Tibetan monks, your RV camping experience transforms into an immersive cultural exchange.
Whether you're gathering around the campfire or strolling through the farmland, every moment spent here plants a seed of serenity in your heart. From captivating farm life to the promise of educational enrichment, this location offers a RV camping getaway that goes far beyond the typical it's an enriching journey that feeds the soul and ignites the spirit of adventure.

Parking & Arrival
Please contact me before your trip for alternate directions if your rig is over 12 feet tall because we are located between two railroad trestles with low clearances. Not all GPSs show the trestles. Call/text when you arrive. Parking spot is outside the main gate in the grass/gravel "triangle" on the southwest corner between the mailbox and the cedar fence. The spot is right along the road, for easy arrival and departure. I suggest entering/parking whichever direction the door to your RV faces inward toward the cedar fence for "patio" area and a little privacy - either via the main driveway or the side gate to the south based on direction of travel and turning radius. We hope to have two more spaces available inside the fence in 2024 for smaller RVs.
We will meet you at the gate for introductions and a tour to visit the animals and to learn about our homestead. This is our first year with Harvest Hosts, so we thank you for your patience.
