Daisy is a Star Host
Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
This location is a private home, turned retreat center in the Santa Cruz Mountains. We are cradled by Mother Nature, in the middle of a Redwood forest, with fresh air and California sun, work together to create an environment that will insulate you from the chaos of today’s hectic lifestyles. Besides camping or overnight stays, we offer retreats to soothe your weary soul. The rooms for rent are part of the home, where I live. We will be sharing space. I have two dogs that live on the property - a British Labrador and a Goldendoodle. Please do not book if you don't like dogs. They are the sweetest dogs you'll meet. They serve to exuberantly welcome you, as well as guard, protect and warn me about unruly UPS drivers and the very scary turkeys that roam the mountains. This property is proudly woman-owned and operated. I love hosting women travelers and have built my tent sites, rooms, cabins, retreats and experiences to cater to women. That is to say, women want a little more comfort, a little more care, a little more thoughtfulness and little more bougie. If that's what you're looking for, this is it! Of course I welcome men too. In fact, there are quite a few men’s’ retreats hosted here. All will be comforted with the smells of the redwoods outside and the smells of fresh baked bread, inside. Come and join me for a night in the woods. Welcome to your Redwood Mountain Retreat, ~Daisy

Private Room 1: Forest View
The Forest Room was cozy. I loved the extra touches that Daisy provided. The tranquility was AMAZING! It felt like visiting a welcoming extended family.

Our family had a wonderful time at Daisy's tipi! The tipi was very spacious and the scenery was beautiful and peaceful. Daisy was welcoming, friendly, and communicative. Would highly recommend!

Magical Redwood camping experience
We loved Daisy's camp site!! It is literally in the middle of a redwood grove. There was a semi-covered structure with a spot for our camp stove for cooking; we used the space as our hang-out spot (but some people put a tent here). We brought two tents (4 people). The ground for our second larger tent wasn't super level but it worked out fine. The shared bathroom with composting toilet, running water for sink, and shower was great and clean. The other sites were all occupied (cabin, teepee, etc) but we never felt like we had to wait for the bathroom and our campsite felt private and secluded even though it wasn't far from everything else (super short walk to bathroom). Daisy's place is super secluded in the redwoods of the Santa Cruz mountains. There is no cell reception but Daisy provided wifi which reached the camp site. Daisy is a great host and we loved visiting with her! There was coffee, hot chocolate, and tea provided in the house. We hope to be back!

XL Tipi Redwood Tent glamping
Daisy's property was beyond convenient and comfortable to camp at. The hosts are amazingly kind people. My group stayed at the tippi which was a beautiful structure stationed with it's own bathroom and sink. A few of our favorite camp features were the fire area, hot tub, and hot shower. The location is conveniently close to everything you'll want to do during your time in Santa Cruz I would definitely love to visit it again.

Camping oasis in the redwoods
Daisy has created an incredible camping oasis at her home in the redwoods! She is exceptionally generous and accommodating. We used the camper spot for a last-minute car camping setup, and it was above and beyond - there is a gorgeous hand-built (and clean) restroom, as well as a spectacular place to congregate around a fire to hang with your fellow campers. Daisy graciously offers firewood, coffee, and other awesome perks. Will definitely be back to rent their pair of electric mountain bikes sometime soon!

We loved it!!
We had a wonderful weekend at Daisy’s and made some fantastic memories with our kids and friends. Daisy is a generous and very gracious host and we loved getting to know her and staying at her place. Daisy has made her place so easy to stay at with a great bathroom (with a hot shower!), setting up nice little perks like a coffee/tea bar in her kitchen, and creating a little fireplace and dome so we could still have a campfire. Our kids also loved the hot tub- it was such a luxury to soak in the tub in the middle of the redwoods.
