100% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.
In Beautiful Scott Valley, a hidden destination loved by stargazers. campers, hikers, bikers, hunters, fishers, nature lovers, rock climbers, and prospectors. Property straddles Hwy. 3 in between Etna and Callahan. Hwy. 3 is not busy during the day, and evenings traffic drops off to almost nothing. Very rural farming/ranching area. No agricultural, ranching or spraying nearby, though. There's lots of blue-green Serpentine stone here, hence the name "Rock Farm." We are an organic farm so we take care to use non toxic agriculture. Fresh spring water provided, we offer primitive camping and are developing some more luxurious sites. Call me at 541-301-3331 for details, we don't always post right away the improvements we're making. Bathroom available, haul water to flush toilet. Dark nights with no light pollution gives great sky watching. Mountain views in daytime. Very quiet at night, and safe. Near beautiful Kangaroo Lake and Mount Shasta. Quiet and peaceful, pristine. Formerly Munson Mill, which closed in the 70''s. Property is for sale, all or part. Ask Nina for details. Learn more about this land: Private, wooded area available for primitive camping or RV for $25 per night. Improved sites with bathroom , tables; chairs, firepit. We have 35 acres so you can choose the site you like best when you arrive. Mountain Views are amazing.  Swimming hole nearby.  Right off Highway 3 between Etna and Callahan, California.  Or, camp across the street with an old wooden mill building for company. Small wetland nearby brings lots of birds to sing you awake in the morning. Open, level space great for nighttime stargazing. Property has a gate you can close at night.  One hour drive to Mt. Shasta or Ashland, Oregon. Groceries, massage, hardware store, laundry, bakery, showers, restaurants in Etna 8 miles away.  Farmer's market in Etna  Saturday morning. Not far from PCT trailhead outside of Callahan CA. If you need a ride from there, call and we'll pick you up if possible for $20. Firewood available too, $1. a stick.  Near Kangaroo lake for fishing, swimming, hiking, boating. Bicycle groups and motorcycle groups going by every summer. We're at 3000 feet elevation, so nights are cool even in the summer.  Bright stars; We even have our own UFO. Air fresh and clean.  Minimal mosquitos due to dry climate. Fresh Spring water available for free. We call it "RockFarm" because there's lots of Serpentine rock here and you're welcome to collect some.  Even pan for gold in the Scott River nearby.

LARGE RV QUEEN BED
This site is a bit rustic, the bed is comfortable and the RV is clean. The kitchen and bathroom are not available to use in the RV. There is a fridge and propane stove nearby at the barn. There is a water station for hand washing or cooking and a bathroom with toilet only. It was very hot when we were visiting and it was nice to have a shady spot to hang out, the art is too hot during the day. But there is a few sitting areas in the shade of the barn. Tables, chairs, couches for lounging. There is also a cute bell tent that we used but it was in the hot sun. It would be nice to have a shade structure over the bell tent.

Nina's property is the best camp for star gazing! We stayed in the open field to get the best views of the Perseid meteor shower. If you choose to stay in the open field as we did, it would be best to be in self contained vehicle or at least bring a Pop-Up for shade and water.

Best camp for star gazing!
We stayed in our fully self-contained toy hauler and had a great time. It was the best spot for watching the perseid meteor shower or just stargazing in general. Nina was a wonderful host with great communication. It was a perfect spot to call home base for our Highway 3 Adventures. Thank you Nina for a great time!

Stargazing Opportunities
I chose this area specifically because it was dark and had a good view of the night sky. We saw the milky way galaxy and the area was safe and quiet for the night. Will visit again in the future.

Rock Farm Ranch
Secluded camp, no swimming hole
This is just as described except there is no swimming hole as mentioned. The land is rocky and flat in spots. Super open but we found a private spot down the trail. We wanted a large open area to try out our yurt. It worked great! Nina was a very gracious host. No running water or shower. Manual flush toilet and power at the barn if you need to charge. Buckets of water upon request.
