What We Are About<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I like nature. As a toddler I rode into the woods in a carrier on my dad\u2019s back for family camping trips. Camping meant setting up a canvas tent in the forest and washing up in a cold stream. The smell of Coleman fuel still gives me a little thrill.<\/p>\n

 When we were RVers about 20 years ago, it was always vaguely disappointing to pull in to a new campground and find the neighbors were only a 4-foot strip of grass away, and a truckload of loud, drunken football fans could ruin the whole trip. Not only was there no nature, there was no privacy. I really loved being able to pull over on the Oregon Coast for a lunch break and enjoy my own bathroom and kitchen while gawking at the spectacular surf, but when it came to overnight parking, there was no option for enjoying both REAL camping AND the RV conveniences.<\/p>\n

RV travelers<\/em> are usually fine with getting REALLY cozy with the neighbors in RV parks. They like the amenities and socialization, and they want their hookups \u2018cause mama gets cranky without running hot water and indoor plumbing. They might prefer to stay closer to or right in town, with access to all the shopping and entertainment options. RV parks are designed for these travelers, many of whom reserve the choice spots a year in advance.<\/p>\n

RV campers<\/em> prefer to enjoy nature, and maybe don\u2019t want a bunch of other humans around to spoil it. They may prefer boondocking<\/em> \u2013 parking alone in a remote spot, usually without hookups \u2013 to a crowded RV park. Boondockers give up water, sewer and power to enjoy the peace, quiet, and wilderness and let the kids and dogs get a little wild – running around getting dirty, looking at bugs, chasing squirrels, and yelling and banging on things with sticks, and other stuff frowned on in RV parks, like maybe a little archery practice.<\/p>\n

But what if you could have both? Suppose you could enjoy the primo camp site, total privacy, AND all the conveniences? It\u2019s way easier to feed a crowd, hose down dirty kids, or clean up after a sweaty hike if you are hooked up to water, sewer and power. No stress about how fast the sewer tanks are filling up. No noise from the neighbors. Nobody peering in your windows (except for the turkeys and the deer). All the hot showers you want. All the wildlife you want to watch. Mama gets the comforts, the kids get a little tribal, and dad can go off to hunt, fish, or hike around looking for moose and bears.<\/p>\n

This is what we have created and we call it \u201cLuxury Boondocking\u201d. It\u2019s a new way to RV camp.<\/p>\n

We have carved a beautiful, private, fully-equipped RV campsite out of the thick evergreen forest here in Northeastern Washington State, added water, sewer and power, and opened it up to single camping parties. We have 65 feet of back-in parking and there are 2 sets of hookups for campers who travel in pairs and want to share the woods with family or a buddy rig, and tent spaces in the trees if the kids want to \u201crough it\u201d.<\/p>\n

We have everything the wilderness can offer. There are lots of things we don\u2019t <\/em>have. We don\u2019t have bingo night or cocktail hour. That\u2019s up to you. You won\u2019t get to enjoy listening to the neighbor\u2019s TV or his yappy dog, or the RV park street lights shining in your windows all night. You won\u2019t find dog walkers strolling by looking in your windows. Stray kids won\u2019t be invading your site, and late arrivals won\u2019t be banging around at midnight next door. You won\u2019t have to go to bed all sticky because the water is getting low and you can\u2019t take a shower.<\/p>\n

We do<\/em> have fishing, hunting, hiking, bird watching, and phenomenal mountain biking – in the actual mountains. Maybe you prefer star gazing by the fire pit on the patio. Our night sky will knock your socks off. Maybe you want to lay around naked in a hammock and read a book. Maybe you want to write<\/em> a book and need an artistic escape. Maybe you want to get away from the relentless urban electronic assault for a reset, or you are EMF sensitive and need out of the electronic smog. If that\u2019s the case, we can even turn the power off totally and you will still have water and sewer. Maybe you are just an antisocial hermit who wants to sit alone in the peace and quiet of the forest for a few days. Right on. Antisocial hermits are some of our favorite people.<\/p>\n

Just 5 miles up the gravel road at the top of our mountain are the Little Twin Lakes for cutthroat fishing and kayaking, or take a picnic basket up there and look for moose and beaver. It\u2019s one of the best kept secrets in the area. 15 miles to the east are the connected Little Pend Oreille Lakes where you can paddle through a 163-acre chain of mountain lakes, hike, fish, swim, and watch the abundant wildlife. ATV or dirt biking? No need to load up the toys for world class riding. Drive right out of your camp site all the way through the forest to some of the best single track riding trails in the state. Then come home and shower off.<\/p>\n

We are 10 miles east of Colville on Highway 20, 2 \u00bd miles up a wide, well-maintained county road. Cell service is hit and miss out here, so if you want to slow down and take a break from \u201ccivilization\u201d, this is the place. You can usually find a signal with a little effort, and satellite dishes should work fine most of the time.<\/p>\n

Do you live in the area? Impress your RVing guests with the local beauty. Send them out to The Wilds to camp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
