Amazing views

Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.

Ettawa Springs Resort dates back to the 1920s and 30s like the fashionable resorts in the Cobb area where the rich and famous came to play. But Ettawa was oriented towards families and a more relaxed and rustic atmosphere. We are working hard to restore her to her former glory. We are excited to announce that we have a few campsites ready for use and will be adding more soon. We offer hot showers and flush toilets and some sites with running water. You can hike through our property to the Cobb Mountain Demonstration Forest or just enjoy the clean air and listen to the wind and the creek. On clear nights the stars put on an amazing show. Clear Lake is about 45 minutes away with all the fishing and water sports you could ask for. Harbin Hot Springs are 15 minutes away and they offer day passes for reasonable rates. We are located about 20 minutes outside of Middletown. Be aware that half of the road is gravel (and that's better than the asphalt half) all of it is fine for small cars, just take your time. The last 1/2 mile or so is a one lane road, so please be careful of opposing traffic and uneven surfaces. We cannot accommodate vehicles longer than 25’ on these roads. We offer California camping at its finest. Fresh air, whispering trees, amazing star fields . . . this can mean the less attractive side of nature as well. We have ticks, rattlesnakes, stinging things, poison oak, uneven trails and surfaces, and a bear on one ridge with mountain cats on the other (no sign of either in the campground). We keep the restroom stocked with tick spray and Tecnu for the poison oak, but please watch yourselves and especially children. Dogs are welcome, but should be kept on lead for their own protection and the comfort of others. We are fairly hands off in our hosting approach. Unless there's a question or problem, you likely won't see us. But we have people close by and are only a message away.

The Glade Site 5

Lovely campsite!!

We had a great time camping at the Glade! Restrooms were super clean, our spot #5 had a beautiful view of the valley, picnic table was present and plenty of space! Beautiful environment to hike and enjoy a swim at Clearlake! Would definitely come back!

The Glade Site 4

I was lucky and only one other camper showed up but the sites are very close to each other. I would recommend renting the entire clearing out at a higher price. I really like the spot and the view. My second suggestion might not be easy to execute. I went there to see a meteor shower in a dark sky. The sky was dark but the light to the bathroom structure is very bright. Maybe a timer that turns off at 10pm? Motion sensors? Anyhow, great communication and way above average directions.

Tent Site 8

We loved staying at Nora's campground. She's an amazing host and followed up via email to share all the details. When we reached out, we were lucky enough to have no neighbors that night and Nora offered us to pick any site. We stayed in site 4 close to the bathroom which was more flat and had a table, lights. We had a great time and would go back here again.

Great space

Fantastic camping spot. Bathrooms were clean and had hot water which is amazing. There was a neighbor running a saw at midnight but that was the worst of it. Amazing spot otherwise.
