For 21 years, we have worked on keeping this property as a Sacred Space. There's a meadow with an Indian artifact and amazing views. We are a team, husband and wife, this is off-the-grid and we raise our children here. At the same time, we grow organic food and work on our crafts and spiritual practice, never using chemical fertilizers, and keeping all of the groundwater clear and clean with an abundance of spring water for drinking. This is a magical forest retreat and we love to share it with others who are like-minded. Right out of the Mendocino National Forest, 100-Acre Forest and Meadow Retreat is just minutes to the Eel River out of the small town of Potter Valley and 15 minutes to Lake Pillsbury. Private views, fresh spring water and endless possibilities. *******We also recommend that you have AWD or 4x4 vehicle, as the road is dirt coming in and the campsite are up the mountain off of a dirt road*******We have 2 campsites currently with fresh spring water, and fire pits. Private and in the woods. Lots of hiking on the land, with stunning views. Bring your own tent, hammock, food whatever you need to be a happy camper!! In the spring of 2019 we added in 2 new yurt sites, with soaking tubs, filled with hot spring water. We have 2 campsites to book for regular camping tents and we just added a community bathroom . Nestled away in the forest very private queen size bed natural spring water for soaking in the tub on your porch. In addition for comfort and convenience we have a nice bathroom with hand-washing station. Each yurt can come with propane heat in winter time you need to request it, in the Extras. making it cozy all year long. *******We also recommend that you have AWD or 4x4 vehicle, as the road is dirt coming in and the campsite are up the mountain off of a dirt road*******.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
Andrea's campsite offers a tranquil escape with a range of amenities that make it a favorite among visitors. Guests consistently praise the host's attentiveness and the peacefulness of the surroundings, noting the spacious and well-maintained sites equipped with clean facilities. The inclusion of unique features like a soaking tub and a pizza oven adds a touch of comfort and fun to the camping experience. While the rough access road and presence of mosquitoes are mentioned, they don't seem to detract significantly from the overall enjoyment of the stay.

I loved the place, very quiet! We stay in site 2. A lot of trees but the only thing is the rough road. But overall super love the place, very spacious. The Host is very accommodating on our first day she went to our site and ask if we need anything.
