my first time hip camping

Hitting the road in my 2018 Winnebago Travato 59g and doing something I’ve never done before. It’s my first time hip camping! I found a really cool spot to Hip Camp, just outside of Seattle so we’re trying it out.
In this video:
- We’re heading to my first hip camp experience, McMurtrey Farm
- I’ll give you a full breakdown of my stay & look at my spot #2
- And we’ll talk to the owner about the Farm

    In my limited experience (through Harvest Host) farmers have always seemed eager to share their story and show guests around the property. Hipcamp looks like a great fit for McMurtrey Farm, because it'll produce revenue in spring and summer when they're not selling pumpkins and trees. I'm stuck home for a few weeks, so thanks for taking us camping. 😀

    I've been aware of both Hipcamp and Harvest Hosts for a while now, but I didn't pursue checking them out because I had heard they don't allow minivans. After watching your video, I looked into Hipcamp in more detail and found out many of their sites do welcome minivans. I have a reservation in June for a Hipcamp outside of Black Diamond, WA! Thanks for another inspiring video, David!

    We haven’t used a Hip Camp yet just Harvest Host and Boondockers welcome. I’ve looked at a few but I’ve noticed the prices are all over the place. From hundreds of dollars to 10 bucks 🤷🏼‍♂️. No amenities and I’m going to pass on anything over 40 a night and that depends on location. Some are very reasonable and some are insane 😂 . That was a nice spot, quiet and safe. 👍🏼
