Our forty acre retreat offers wildflowers, satellite WiFi, a year round creek, and a pond that supports endangered pond turtles. Pitch your tent or enjoy one of our fully equipped small cabins. Choose a secluded spot by Corral Creek or our group camp next to a swimming pond. Guests are also invited to head up the mountain for glorious privacy and views of our 215 gardens. With prior arrangement we offer locally sourced, organic dinners under the stars, followed by marshmallows and music around our campfire. Children and well behaved dogs are welcome here.

Bell Tent Creek Side Camping #2
Unique Glampsite Treasure
Tucked away into the mountains Between the Six Rivers and Shasta Trinity National Forests, arriving at Pantilokpom feels like discovering Neverland. The scenery is beautiful and the decor is cute, often vintage and eclectic. A picturesque pond with an island in the middle is surrounded by a handful of canvas bell tents and flanked by a beautiful stream that seems like it runs all year. The nearby outdoor kitchen and wood cabin also have lovely pond views. When paired with well maintained compost toilets and a cute open-ish air shower shack complete with hot water tank, the space made for unique and incredibly fun, rustic glamping experience. Expect to unplug from civilization a bit and be rewarded for it when you do. The hosts live a short distance up the road in a gorgeous, sustainably made house designed and built by the owner herself. Both the property owner and the two groundskeepers are generous and attentive without hovering. Despite being a fairly last minute booking, they had a freshly made bed and propane burner to offer me, as well as dinner from their own kitchen and wine. As it was supposed to rain the nights of my stay and the cabin happened to be empty, they upgraded me for free and gave me complementary firewood for the small woodburning stove inside. They were kind to my dog and accommodating of her as well. I’d booked this spot spontaneously when I ended up with two free days between jobs and wanted a relaxing outdoors getaway with my dog and I couldn’t have made a better choice!

We had an amazing time at these cabins -- our host (Manny) was amazing and everyone there was extremely hospitable. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a chill getaway.

Responsive, helpful
Excellent place if you want to escape everything, it's got amazing clean water, showers and bbq pits w/ utensils. There's a creek and pond to swim in, so peaceful! Zero light pollution too so the stars are amazing! Check out strawhouse cafe on the way for some great food and coffee! -Ryan

Log Cabin
Best possible experience!
Wow! My wife & I cannot get over the wonderful time we had staying here. The cabin was very accommodating what with private outdoor kitchen, running water, electricity & WiFi. Fantastic layout- you get a large outdoor area with a fire pit & two hammocks. The cabin deck over looks a stream so the sound of water really adds to the relaxation. This property is incredible! Granted I think we got lucky since there were no other campers the weekend we stayed. Our dog had an open terrain to enjoy! One of the highlights is definitely Manny, the host on site. He was thoughtful & courteous. In his trips into town he would check to see if we needed supplies. On our 2nd night he invited us to view the “scube” all lit up & it was BRILLIANT. I truly hope we get the opportunity to visit again.

Great place !
This was our first visit and first time using Hipcamp. I am not a camper - my family had to make some concessions to get me to go. One was a safe place, good tent, and easy to access. This place met 2/3. So my recommendation is to make sure and download direction because there was no cell service! Also. DO NOT take the dirt road that the Google says to take. Big mistake!! And quite possibly dangerous if you have never navigated a steep forest service road. Also - lots of big chuck holes in the road - make sure your stuff is tied down proper. Needless to say - once you find it - it’s a nice little quiet and quaint camping spot. We were given the little pond cabin- unexpected but quite nice for me!! Our teens slept in the large tent that was already set up and waiting - complete with air mattress next to the pond. Our host - Manny - was very accommodating. He lit the cool fire thing with the hammocks - don’t know what it’s called but it is very cool!! You lay in the hammocks and the fire is above you!! It was peaceful. There is a little camp kitchen area with a stove and utensils. We had no problems with wildlife - other than the obligatory meat bees. There are outhouses that you have to walk to - an outdoor shower which had hot water and an incredible view! We would visit again and bring friends and plan for a few days!!
