Afternoon Camp is a micro-cabin located on the Olympic Peninsula.
Made primarily of recycled material, Afternoon Camp was built for those who are drawn to art-focused design immersed in the natural world.
Afternoon Camp has ‘rustic’ and convenient amenities. The great outdoors are fun, but having a comfy bed doesn’t hurt. The campsite features a bedroom, hot outdoor shower, firepit, deck, picnic area, outdoor camp kitchen, wifi & electricity. Book

Things to know...
While walking to the porta potty at night, don’t forget to catch a glimpse of the stars ;)
The cabin is 11ft X 12 ft, so COZY. Think minimal when packing. You’ll regret bringing white shoes.
We share the hillside with our neighbors, and bears. Handle food accordingly. The camp is a native space for plants and animals, indigenous-cared for. Recreate with respect for the shared environment. Also,
Your stay is funding the arts.
Afternoon Camp hosts an artist once every quarter for an extended stay, free of charge. Artists are asked to engage with our local community, their own artistic practice and exhibit artwork for the public’s benefit. Pretty simple idea: give artists, musicians, writers and others plenty of space for creativity.
