  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Season's campsite offers a blend of nature and comfort, with many reviewers appreciating the warm hospitality and well-maintained facilities. Visitors frequently mention Season's attentiveness, the helpful directions, and the charming company of the property dog, Roscoe. The location provides easy access to the Eel River for swimming and nearby attractions, though some note road noise from the highway. Overall, the site is praised for its peaceful atmosphere, though a few visitors experienced issues with noise at night.

  • Recommends

    We enjoyed glamping on Season’s property. She met us as we arrived and gave us a great overview of the amenities and the yurt where we would be staying. After we got settled we had a look around and then took off to explore the redwoods at Richardson‘s Grove, which is close by. There is a barn on the property where you can cook your meals with a propane stove. There is a refrigerator with the freezer and drinking/cooking water for us as well. A couple of things to mention would be that the yurt we stayed in is close to the highway so there is traffic noise even at night when you’re sleeping otherwise the property is very spacious and Season was very accommodating. Would definitely recommend staying here but just be prepared for the traffic noise at night.

    Camped in a 18 ft campervan at Garden look out, Jul 2026.

    Doesn't recommend

    This place does not exist. It used too, we could see the busted old buildings, but there was no longer a road in, no mailbox or markings like the directions gave, and the phone number goes to a full mailbox. This is a scam, they’re just trying to steal your money.

  • Ronald O.

    Camped in a 19 ft class b at Eel river overlook, Sept 2025.

    It was okay

    The camp host was great at communicating & showing us around the property. Shower worked great, adequately level area for our very small camper van. Noise from 101 no worse than the nearby state park & identified in the listing. Noise from camp host House in the middle of the night was a problem & concern other non-hipcamo visitors were causing our host problems. Can't recommend due to this sleep disruption
