Bumping River Retreat

09/11/2026

September is a beautiful time of year at Bumping River Retreat. There's not much time left to enjoy it before we close for the season. We still have cabins and RV sites available through September 19. Our cabins have propane heaters to keep you warm and cozy as the night temperatures fall.

Check us out at https://bumpingriverretreat.com. You can make your reservation online, or call us, and we will be happy to help you!

In Goose Prairie, Washington, in the heart of the Cascade Mountain Range, you’ll find the Bumping River Retreat. The small gathering of 4 rustic cabins, an apartment, and 6 RV spots attracts outdoor enthusiasts from late spring through late fall.

Anyone looking for a summer getaway? Bumping River Retreat is a small family owned and operated business. We have RV sites for dry camping, rustic cabins, and a 2-story house available for rent. Our property sits right on Bumping River, just 3 miles away from Bumping Lake.
Our small cabins by the river are simple and rustic. They have no electricity and no indoor bathroom, but each one has a propane refrigerator, stove top, heater and lamp. A bathroom with shower and hot and cold running water is available to all guests. What people love best about these cabins is the view of the river and the peaceful surroundings.
Our 2-story house, the Rainier, has more modern features including electricity, a full size kitchen, and an indoor bathroom with hot and cold running water.
All guests have access to the beautiful riverfront area of the property.
Please check our website for details at https://bumpingriverretreat.com/, and see if this is the place for you.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Bumping River Road is closed to the public as of yesterday. This is due to the Wildcat Fire, which began last week on Monday. Sadly, we are closed probably for the rest of the season. We will post an update if that changes.
Thank you to all of you who stayed with us this year. We hope to see you back next year.
A big thank you to the firefighters who are working hard to get this fire under control and protect private properties. Please pray for their safety.

Is it time to get away from the stress and busy-ness of life and relax for a few days? Bumping River Retreat has RV sites for dry camping, rustic cabins, and a 2-story house available for rent. Our property sits right on Bumping River, and except for the sound of the river, it's very quiet and peaceful here in our neck of the woods.

If you're looking for some adventure, we're 3 miles away from Bumping Lake, and there are several hikes in the area as well.
We're also about 50 minutes away from the White River entrance to Mount Rainier, and about an hour away from the Stevens Canyon entrance.

Due to a number of unforeseen circumstances, we will now be deciding whether or not to accept reservations for this year on May 1st.

Those of you who have met our owner Don or any of his children and grandchildren up at the retreat know that this is a family business in every sense--we manage the property, run the business, maintain the website, and care for our guests ourselves. Unfortunately, our family is struggling through a difficult season--in the last few months, we've lost two dearly beloved family members. This, coupled with staff shortage due to other medical emergencies, means that we need to make some difficult decisions about whether we'll be able to open this year at all.

We want to welcome you all back to our little haven this summer--after a winter like ours, we know how precious those little retreats can be. But we need a little more time to figure out how and if we can make that happen. We appreciate your patience, and, as always, we hope to see you again up at the retreat.

Sincerely,
The Bumping River Retreat team
