Arriving
8402 Northwood Rd, Lynden, WA 98264, about 3 miles from downtown Lynden.
Anytime after 4 PM. If you'd like help when you arrive, please get here by 9 PM. After that we're off for the night, but you can still pull in and set up on your own.
Please call or text 360-815-1494 when you're 20 to 30 minutes away, so we can be sure we're here to welcome you.
In summer, the campground check-in stand has a map of the farm, a guide to local restaurants and tips about the area.
Please watch our campground check-in video before you get here. It shows you how to find the campground and your site.
Every site has its own grassy spot with a picnic table and a fire ring. Sites #1 and #6 work as pull-throughs for smaller rigs. The other four are back-in.
Want to pull in early? Early check-in is available for an hourly fee, when your site is free. Ask at least a day ahead and we'll confirm. You can pay by Venmo or cash, or we can add it to your booking if we have your card on file.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is free. The signal is strongest near the house and can be spotty out at the sites, so we can't promise a connection or speed.
Restrooms and shower
Please arrive fully self-contained, with your own bathroom in your RV. Our portable toilets are a backup, not your main restroom.
Two professionally cleaned portable toilets are near the barn, by the campground check-in stand. In the off-season, only one is open.
A hot outdoor shower in a private, fully enclosed stall with a door, under the lean-to by the barn. Please keep warm water to about 5 minutes so the next person gets a warm shower too. Water is limited in the off-season.
A utility sink is under the lean-to for washing up. Please clear out any food when you're done.
A washer and dryer are in the big yellow barn, through the glass doors. Laundry is $1 per machine, on the honor system. Please leave it in the box on the dryer, clean the lint trap, and take your laundry out as soon as it's done.
Your site
Sites #1 to #5 have full hookups: water, power and sewer. Site #6 has water and power.
On a sewer hookup, please use only RV toilet paper. Our septic system runs on pumps, and regular paper can shut it down.
At Site #6, the dump station is free when you leave after a stay of 2 nights or more. One-night stays pay a dump fee.
Please don't run a generator. They're loud, and every site has power, so you won't need one.
Hot tub
Our hot tub is mainly for Little Farmhouse and Barn Cabin guests, who get first pick of times. When a time slot is open, campers can reserve it for a fee. During your slot, it's yours alone.
The hot tub is behind a locked gate. Book an open time on the calendar, and once we see your booking, we'll unlock the gate and make sure the hot tub is hot and ready for you. Each session is 45 minutes, and campers pay a fee for each one. You can pay by Venmo or cash, or we can add it to your booking if we have your card on file.
Outside
Every site has a fire ring and a picnic table. Firewood is sold by the crate. Order one before you arrive and we'll bring it to your site, or buy one when you get here from our stand under the campground check-in. You can pay by Venmo, PayPal or cash (the details are by the wood).
Please leave the fire ring where it is, and burn only wood: no trash, food or cigarette butts. No other portable wood-burning fire pits. A propane fire pit is welcome too. Just check with us before you light it, so we can make sure it won't damage the lawn.
Please set your stove and cooking gear on the picnic table, not the grass, and no stoves that can scorch the lawn. There's no grill, so bring your own if you'd like to barbecue.
You're welcome to walk or bike the fields and lanes. Please respect posted signs and stay clear of fenced pastures and equipment. You'll often see our Wagyu grazing, so enjoy them from outside the fences. A map of the farm is at the campground check-in stand.
Our Wagyu
Our Farmstead Market isn't open every day, so it's best to order before your stay. Order at least 24 hours before you arrive, and we'll have it ready for you at check-in.
Rather shop in person? Book a time to visit the market.

A few simple rules keep the farm quiet, clean and green for everyone.
10 PM to 7 AM. Sound carries on the farm, so please keep it down so everyone can rest.
Visitors who aren't on your booking need a parking pass, park in the VISITOR area, and leave by 8 PM. If that timing doesn't work, please check with us first. On quieter nights we may be flexible, but when we're full, the 8 PM departure applies to everyone.
Up to two dogs per site. Keep them on a leash (6 feet or shorter, not retractable) whenever they're outside, and out of the barns and cattle pastures.
Dogs may never be left alone, at any time, not in your RV, your vehicle, or anywhere on the farm. If we find a dog left alone, we'll call you and you'll need to come back for it. Please keep your dog quiet. If barking becomes a problem, we may ask you to settle them.
For bathroom breaks, take your dog out to the field, not around the sites. Pick up after your dog, and put waste bags in the big blue dumpster by the barn. All dogs should be up to date on vaccinations and wear ID.
All of our dog rules are on Dogs at the Farmstead.
Please don't use large plastic outdoor mats, which damage the grass. Small stepping mats are fine. And please don't pour hot water or coffee on the lawn.
Please don't leave food or garbage out. Trash goes in the big blue dumpster by the barn. We don't recycle, so bottles and cans go in too. Please take large cardboard and packaging with you, or drop it off with any recycling at Nooksack Valley Disposal and Recycling, 250 Birch Bay Lynden Rd, Lynden.
Check-out
Check-out is by 11 AM, so we have time to get ready for the next guests.
Want to stay a little longer? Late check-out is available for an hourly fee, when your site is free. Ask at least a day ahead. You can pay by Venmo or cash, or we can add it to your booking if we have your card on file.
