You can camp at this historic North Cascades homestead & it has lava tube swimming holes

Now that it’s summer, you might just be ready to make some real camping plans. If you want to have the option of camping or lodging but still want to be in beautiful nature, we may have just found the best spot this summer. Let’s head over to the North Cascades to take a look.

The place we’re talking about is a rustic and authentic organic homestead property in the North Cascade foothills. It has three indoor lodging options and four places to pop a tent as well. It’s a real chance to enjoy the outdoors and also take a step back in time to 1890 as you get acquainted with the amazing property.

Perhaps the largest draw of this property are the lava tube swimming holes. As they are on private property and for the use of those staying there, you won’t find them over run.

Beyond the amazing swimming holes you’ll find a diverse array of landscapes ranging from grassy fields to lush rainforests on the 30 acre property.

When it comes to indoor lodging you can choose between the “Analog Room” “Willow Cabin” and “Garden Cabin.”

Both the Willow and Garden Cabin can sleep three, while the Analog Room is more meant to enjoy the interesting array of artifacts but does have a queen size bed.

Prices range from $62-$99 per night depending on whether you’re inside or camping and reservations can be made through HipCamp.
