Our camp area is right next to our home. We live on 2 acres which is apart of our families 500 acre ranch and home to a summer camp and retreats. There are nice hiking trails we can direct you to as long as the National Forest isn't closed. We have a few picnic tables, outdoor electrical, a grill, fresh spring water, water hook up and beautiful scenery all around. We do own a few ca.  Our space isn’t huge but we are happy to share. We live in a remote area and its beautiful and quiet.  There is a local town 6 miles down the road that has several places to eat and one small place to get some grocery. This property that we live on has been lived on now by 4 generations. My grandpa bought this land with his brother in 1940s. His brother eventually sold his portion leaving my grandpa with a little over 500 acres...We also run retreats off and on year round on the main property and offer a wide variety of things for our clients. Due to COVID, and the strange year had, we thought that this would help us gain a little of our money lost as well as meet some really cool travelers along the way. We call this God's country because it is a unique and beautiful peace of land, even in the driest of moments. And...there is beautiful manzanita trees all over property. We personally live 1/2 mile from the main part of the property Jameson Ranch, where the summer camp is held. I love to garden and are in the process of expanding our portion of the property to putting in fruit orchards and berry bushes. Our whole property also borders the Sequoia National Forest and there are some fun walking trails around there. Its very peaceful here and a reconnect with nature so to speak if that is what you are looking for. We hope to share this little bit of our heaven with you. Side note: If interested in the summer time programs for kids camp or family camp, let us know and we are happy to share that with you too.

Welcome to your gateway to the wild! Nestled in the heart of Three Rivers, our private camp spot offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from the entrance to Sequoia National Park. Set near the North Fork of the Kaweah River, you’ll fall asleep to the sounds of flowing water and wake up to birdsong and mountain air. Whether you’re here for adventure or relaxation, this is your perfect basecamp. Spend your days exploring the park’s world-famous giant sequoias, swimming in crystal-clear river pools, hiking scenic trails, or just unwinding under the stars by your campsite. The site is tucked away in a quiet corner of our property, offering a blend of natural beauty and simple comfort. Expect clear night skies, mountain views, and the kind of serenity only the Sierra foothills can offer. You’ll have easy access to town for supplies or a bite to eat, but once you’re back at camp, you’ll feel miles away from everything. Ideal for tent campers or vanlifers looking for a peaceful, well-located spot to recharge and reconnect with nature. Includes WiFi

Weekend Trip to Three Rivers Sequoia Camp

Super clean and comfortable set up. Location was great- located next to some nice eateries and breweries/ cafe. Not far from the sequoia national park which is just incredible! Wonderful shower and bathroom facility with clean towels. Sonja was a super nice and friendly host- she went out of her way to make us feel comfortable. She makes pickled veggies and jams that you can buy. We had a great time!!

We had a very enjoyable stay at Sonja’s tent on her land. She was very friendly and provided cookware including coffee and snacks. The bathroom was lovely and the shower was great after a day of hiking. There were restaurants and coffee shops a short drive away; plus it was very close to the sequoia entrance. Would highly recommend!

The tent accommodations provided by Sonja were wonderful. I felt so welcome and at home right away. This is a more rural area, so expect to hear the neighbors animals (dogs and rooster) during your stay. I woke up to a flock of wild turkeys surveying the land, as well as a deer! I would gladly stay here again :)

Sonia was very kind and helpful providing information about the national park and sights I shouldn’t miss. There was little cell service in the area, so I really appreciated the strong Wi-Fi she provided. I will definitely stay there again..

If you're new into camping or even an expert this place is your place, the amenities are perfect, we slept so good in the tent and Sonja is very kind and helpful with everything, she truly thinks about every detail, the views are beautiful and they also have a trampoline (my favorite part, super fun for lay down at night and watch the starts) PLUS, just 5 min away you can find a coffee shop and they have 2 cats and sometimes one of them come to say hi, so if you love animals this is your place

Weekend Trip to Three Rivers Sequoia Camp

We enjoyed camping on Sonja’s land. She was very welcoming as soon as we pulled in. We expected nothing but grass to set our tent on but Sonja already had a tent, sleeping bags and pads set up. We still set our own tent up, which she was very okay with. We had access to a grill, plus a box of goodies. The bathroom was very clean. There were a couple of sweet ducks on the property and some friendly cats. There was a dog in the neighboring backyard that would bark occasionally through the night, so if you’re a light sleeper, make sure to bring earplugs. Although we only slept there for a night, we enjoyed our stay overall!

Sonja was extremely kind and welcoming, and we were met by all her curious critters over the course of our 2-day stay. The place is a short drive from the entrance to the park, but down off the main road and probably a bit more quiet. Would visit again!

Sonja is creating something very special on her land. She thought of every detail, a lamp for the picnic table, playing cards, a kettle for tea and coffee in the am, and the tent set up and bathroom were both sparkly clean. Close to the entrance of Sequoia NP, a great place to camp. Thank you so much, Sonja!

3 nights at Split Mountain Retreat

My wife and I had a very enjoyable stay at split mountain. Full RV hookups, a beautiful shaded area with Punic tables, Adirondack chairs, and fairy lights. Not to mention the gorgeous view of Lake Isabella when you wake up in the morning or during sunset. JD, the on site host was very friendly, informative and welcoming. He provided great recommendations and was very responsive when we had questions. He met us upon arrival despite having a later arrival time. I would highly recommend this Hipcamp!

We had a wonderful stay at Sonja's campsite. Everything was lovingly prepared. We even got a little starter pack from her :) Sonja was a great host! We had electricity, water, hot showers and even our own BBQ grill. Our highlight was the pair of ducks that kept walking through the garden and had their own little house. We would recommend this place again and again :)
