Dustin and Om's land, farm, Glampgalore retreat was perfect for our 4 month old's first camping experience. The tent was so cozy, thoughtfully decorated and organized with string lights, a comfortable bed, dresser, side table, and cooking wares. Our dogs had a blast walking the beautiful trails all around and we had the best time feeding acorns to the goats and the cutest pigs you will ever meet. Being followed around by a gaggle of chickens, guinea hens, ducks, and one curious turkey made our trip all the more sweet. Dustin and Om are the best hosts we have ever had on Hipcamp and we will definitely be back in the spring!

Weekend Trip to Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping
Great experience. Stayed in Ponderosa. Very comfy, intentional & clean set up. We were the only campers there which was nice. Would stay again. Thank you Ellie & Jack for the thoughtfulness with the little details. Our dog was in heaven too :)

Chris and Rebecca are wonderful host. The property is amazing and very well kept.
There is a giant 40 ft swing that we all (adults and child) had fun trying out.
Chris took the time to answer all our questions and help find the best spots to go swimming.
This will be our go to spot to go to Nevada City moving forward! We didn’t want to leave.

Weekend Trip to Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping
Amazingly beautiful stay in Nevada city! The yurt and views were amazing! Very responsive and friendly hosts, amazing hip camp setup and we ended up having some great yurt neighbors from the Bay Area! Hot showers are a plus ! (might want to bring your own privacy curtain if you’re not a naturalist, lol) but can’t recommend this place enough!

Weekend Trip to Om Sweet Om Farm
Dustin and Om’s land is so incredibly beautiful and well loved, they were such outstandingly caring hosts, and the attention to detail + comfort made this such a wonderful trip.
The camping tent is beautiful, very clean and comfortable and the sweetie guard dog Billy made us feel so safe and welcome especially since we came in late at night. He keeps the bears and mountain lions away and very politely asks for morning pets in return.
Dustin and Om communicated quickly and kindly, and really went above and beyond to help me replace my tire when it blew out on the road nearby- even coming out to meet us and sending us to a trusted nearby garage after. Truly dream hosts who helped make a very special trip go smoothly after some big unexpected hiccups.
They really thought of everything you could need to stay comfy, the bed was so good for us, and even the hand built compost toilet was so ingenious- well ventilated, comfortable, clean. Light cooking was easy with the provided kitchen utensils and butane stove, and the dining area outside the tent is soooo peaceful. The area with the tent is private amongst some gorgeous trees, with solar lights that made the place feel magical at night. The ceremony tent is also a very beautiful and special place.
All the animals are so well cared for and sweet, it’s truly a family full of love and many vibrant personalities.
This place is such a peaceful haven in an unpredictable world, and we are so grateful. Will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Om Sweet Om Farm
We had a great time at Dustin’s, it was the exact glamping experience I was hoping for. Dustin was helpful and friendly, and the animals were a big plus. The view from the plunge area was amazing! We hope to come back.

Weekend Trip to TerraSol~ "Earth Under the Sun"
Chris and Rebecca are wonderful hosts! The site is easy to get to and it is near by Nevada city and the river. We enjoyed our love shack tent, the swing and the views. We will be definitely coming back sometime in the future and recommending others to visit.

Weekend Trip to Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping
My friend and I loved staying at Ponderosa! Ellie and Jack were very responsive to our questions. The tent was very clean and cozy. The composting toilet was an unexpected but very pleasant surprise (very clean and quite relaxing!). We got to enjoy the hot tub after a long hike and that was lovely as well. We would definitely stay here again!

This is a perfect getaway if you’re looking for solstice. The tent is very beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed and everything you need for simple living. There are lights inside and candles outside which was nice! There’s loads of very cute goats on property, and really friendly dogs that won’t bother you. The cold plunge was a nice touch, and had a gorgeous view. We went into the ceremony space, which is really well done and you can feel the love and energy they put into it- a very peaceful tent indeed.
The bathroom was clean, and the composting toilet was not scary at all lol. I would recommend this and the host are extremely easy to talk to and friendly.

2 nights at Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping
I enjoyed my stay at the Ponderosa! It went by so fast, ill have to book one more night next time. Jack and Ellie have a great set up. When I stayed we only had a couple neighbors down at Cedar so that part is dependent on your booking. The yurt had everything we needed including little extras that came in handy (a fan, some disinfectant wipes, etc). The hot tub felt nice, didn’t get a chance to check out the cold plunge. Jack and Ellie were always responsive and friendly throughout the whole time of the booking and trip. Highly recommend checking this spot out!

Group trip
Our group of 7 absolutely adored this camp site and our wonderful hosts. Chris is so welcoming and kind - he gave us the best tips for an optimal river day and gave a sweet tour of his beautiful property. The love shack was well decorated and very comfortable. The rest of our group had no trouble finding flat spots to set up camp nearby. The deck/hangout area has everything you need, including chairs, lighting, and a mister to keep cool! This place is very special. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Nevada City.

Absolutely tremendous views and beautiful property. We stayed in the glamping tent “Love Shack” closer to the house and it was a very comfortable stay. Running water, fans, and string lights were nice features. And it felt very cozy on the edge of the woods.
Although, if you’re tall, 5’10” plus, I would recommend staying in the tiny cabin at the “Platform of Pleasure”. Due to how the bed needs to fit in the tent, you’re not really able to get your head to the top of the bed and feet can end up hanging off. My husband is 6’5” so this may be an isolated problem, but thought I’d mention it. 😂
Next time we come back we will book the “Platform of Pleasure” because you feel like you’re on the edge of the world up there. So tranquil. The feeling is unbeatable.
We didn’t play, but they have yard games too! And beautiful art to look at on the property. We brought our goldendoodle and he absolutely loved it out there.
Chris & Rebecca were great hosts and made sure we felt immediately welcomed and comfortable. If you’re in Nevada City area, I recommend getting out to their property. It’s a gem!

Weekend Trip to Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping
Ellie and Jack are perfect hosts! They allow the guests to have privacy but they are responsive and helpful when needed. This was our second time here and both times we were really happy and relaxed. That’s the point of going glamping. The place is clean, the hot tub and cold plunge are lovely, relaxing, very nice set up, five star! We’ll be back next year! Thank you!

Chris and Rebecca were so warm and welcoming. The space was thoughtfully curated and nestled amongst beautiful trees. It was a great landing pad while traveling to sleep in a nice tent yet have the amenities like a bathroom and shower for comfort and ease! It was also a short drive into town, hikes and the river. I would definitely come back!!!
