The hustle and bustle of the city are far behind you, it's time to unplug from technology and reconnect with nature. Only 300 feet from the pristine Methow River, and at the edge of the forest, a group of safari-style canvas tents are waiting for you and your friends. Explore the surrounding wilderness and enjoy the myriad of options, outdoor and indoor, that this unique valley has to offer. These tents are located minutes away from rock climbing, river rafting or horseback riding, and you are just steps to enjoying the 120 miles of trails this Valley is famous for. When night falls be ready to be marveled by the night sky and the sounds of the forest. The campground is only open during the warm season.

Located in the North Cascades, the Methow Valley is a scenic destination with beautiful mountain vistas, forests and wildflowers. With warm, dry summers and snowy winters, the valley offers a variety of outdoor adventures for all ages and skill levels.

The charming towns of Twisp, Winthrop and Mazama are also worth exploring for their summer farmers' markets, shops, bakeries and pubs.
