3 nights at Village Camp Truckee

Wonderful experience, we'll definitely be back. Facilities are clean, upgrades to the grounds are in progress, all services are available at your designated spot. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Coppercreek Camp

We loved car camping at Copper Creek! The hosts were super responsive and made it easy for us to find the site after dark. The camp beautiful and has everything you need and the horses frolicking in the field were an added bonus!

2 nights at Yosemite Westlake Camp

Mac was a fantastic host! Even though we arrived after 9 he still came out to great us. Met us the next morning to share how to take on Yosemite and provided great insight on the hikes I had picked! Provided us a map so I could take my notes. Checked in with us in the evening to see how our day went to ! When we had car problems we guided us to a great place and we were very pleased ! The campsite is super unique and the stories are intriguing.

3 nights at The Secret Gardens by the Bay

Yeyen's land was so refreshing from the campgrounds I am accustomed to. We were greeted upon arrival. It was first solo trip for my son and I. They helped level up the 25' rig. I was grateful for that. The place is beautiful. Nice accommodations, lot of nice walking trails, amazing community kitchen, showers were so nice and very clean. Lovely, peaceful views and places to sit along the property. The construction and gardens were a delight. Everyone we encountered whether they were working there or visiting were friendly and kind. We had our Josie dog with us. She enjoyed all the walk abouts.

3 nights at The Secret Gardens by the Bay

This space is magical, beautiful woodwork, the shared space is like a dream home. Super friendly and accommodating hosts.

1 night at Mystic Forest Campground

We tent camped at Mystic Forest, and it was a great experience! Camp was easy to navigate and the bathrooms were super neat/clean with hot water. Bins for trash too. Instructions were clear, and Patrick was super helpful. He even gave us tips of things to do around Redwood! Definitely recommend.

2 nights at Chinook RV Resort

Close to lots of cool trails, Redwoods NP, & Elk! Nice place to rest a few days!

1 night at Baby Banana Slug Farm

Cabin was very quaint and the location amongst many very tall trees was great. I also saw several banana slugs, which aren’t something you can see anywhere else!

2 nights at The Secret Gardens by the Bay

I was on my 1st van trip (and by myself) and this place was magical. The hosts were so kind and the property is really beautiful. If you have a chance to stay here I would highly recommend. Lisa

2 nights at Mill Creek Resort

Highly recommended! 15-20 min drive away from lassen volcanic national park. Everything you would need is available in the cabin. Very peaceful area.

Weekend Trip to May's Luxury Farmstays

We felt very welcomed. The cabin was everything we imagined and more. The hosts meticulously made sure we had everything we could need or want for our vacation. All you’ll need to do is pack your clothes. Literally. They have a beautiful property. The chickens and roosters are people friendly and so adorable. We thought we would hear the roosters but we didn’t. They provide earplugs by the bedside if you need them. But you won’t. Being close to all the animals we thought we might smell the coop but there wasn’t a foul smell anywhere on the property. The pond is beautiful. The host indicated we could wade in the pond but the weather was bad. The trails were right off the property and beautiful. I always like to report the good and ugly about our experiences at locations we visit. Reviews from past visitors give you the real lowdown of the place. I’m sorry but there wasn’t a negative I can think of. Honestly I want to move in!

Weekend Trip to Cosumnes River Ranch

Such a great spot- and it hit the spot after a long work week! Loved the privacy and the sounds of the river to sleep by. Nice to meet Sawyer too!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Falls Yosemite Camp

Beautiful site for tent camping! My girlfriend and I camped here for one night before heading to Yosemite the next day, and we really enjoyed our stay. The location is right next to a lovely river with a few waterfalls in sight! It was very quiet and peaceful, and the hosts were very kind and amenable. I definitely recommend staying here especially if you’re looking to head to Yosemite.

Weekend Trip to Cosumnes River Ranch

A wonderful campsite—easy to access, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. The environment was quiet and relaxing, perfect for a short getaway. The host was very welcoming and responsive, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Mill Creek Resort

Very peaceful land for campsite setup with lots of trees. Restrooms were very clean with flush toilets. We had the sweetest tasting water from their potable water faucet. The cost of the campsite was reasonable. It was raining heavily from late afternoon and we didn’t have any sort of large tarp to spend our evening outside the tent so we ended up waiting in the car for a long time. It would have been great if there was some sort of shelter or community kitchen kind of area where people can cook and spend time on the days when it’s raining. Would definitely recommend this campsite on sunny days

3 nights at Cosumnes River Ranch

we really enjoyed staying on Rachael's land, there was plenty of space and such a beautiful scenery, definitely will be coming back in the future

Weekend Trip to Cosumnes River Ranch

LOVED our stay at Rowan’s Site 6. The drive and your property is beautiful. We will definitely come back and share with friends. Thank you!

Weekend Trip to Cosumnes River Somerset Camp

Beautiful and peaceful campsite right by the river. Private and quiet, just as advertised.

3 nights at dabudage Big Sur

My friends and I absolutely loved staying on Gene’s land! The view of the ocean and mountains was beautiful and the sound of the creek was so lovely at night. The outdoor shower was really relaxing as well! Would definitely stay here again. :)

Weekend Trip to Mill Creek Resort

this place is like home. that’s the review. that’s all i can say. i’ll always return. my heart rests here.

Camp Stoney Meadows

13 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents120 acres · Big Bend, CA

Our 120 remote acres are adjacent to Shasta Trinity National Forest in the beautiful Cascade Range between Mt. Lassen and Mt. Shasta in Northern California. It's a working ranch with tree farms, animals, hydroelectric power, sawmill, gardens, orchards, creeks, springs, trails, and our camp alongside Kosk Creek. We're 54 miles from Redding off of 299E, (about 1-1/2 hour drive). DO NOT TAKE ROAD 11 FROM THE NORTH, IT IS CLOSED! PIease try to ignore the "car art" in the Pit River Tribe's Rancheria as you're coming here. Drive right through it, it's no reflection on us. The last mile or so of the road here can be pretty rough, but on arrival, you'll know it's worth the trip! No Cell phone service available here, so it's the perfect opportunity to unplug. We do have a land line up at the house in case of an emergency. Also, if you really need it, WiFi is available at the house.

Campo Nopalito

7 sites · Lodging15 acres · Valley Center, CA

Welcome to Nopalito Farm! We’re so happy you’ve decided to spend some time on this beautiful property! In case you’re interested, here are a few interesting things about our farm. Nopalito Farm has been in operation since late 2014, but the property itself has been a working farm for over 50 years. Lemons and avocados were the primary crops from the 70’s through the 00’s, and are still prominent throughout our 15 acres. Our predecessors then diversified the growing operation by planting a wide range of fruit trees ranging from guavas and passion fruit to peaches and figs. For a decade, hops were grown on 2 acres and were sold to breweries throughout southern California. We’ve since replaced the hop yard with perennial flowers, but continue to cultivate a wide variety of delicious fruits.

Cosumnes River Somerset Camp

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents23 acres · Somerset, CA

This land was home to the Miwok, then European and Chinese miners, then a cattle rancher. It was also home to a former nun who quit the dominican order to purchase this land for inner city kids to have a chance to ride, swim, hike and fish. We moved here in 2017 and purchased this land with the main goal to raise our large family here, but we have found that good things must be shared! There is NOTHING like being in the wilderness of this area for a good re-centering of the soul! We have found it to be a true blessing for our family, and we hope you can experience this blessing as we share this space with you. We feel certain you will not be disappointed with our beautiful river canyon. Our property is situated right on the middle fork cosumnes river. We have 2 sleeping cabins and several tent sites (can be rented separately). The cabins offer a rustic/minimalist type vibe - bring your own bedding/pillows to sleep on the comfy futon. A table and chairs are provided for the cabins. Tent sites each have a wood table (bring your camp chairs) and a fire pit when the season is open for burning. The swimming is awesome and the stars at night will put you into a state of awe! In the area there are many family owned wineries in the area, most of them offering free tasting! It’s a short drive to Tahoe and the Marshall gold discovery site as well as the historic hangtown Placerville. We are happy to make suggestions for local hiking areas, like the Devil's Slide "Gorge" only a 15 minute drive but like a trip to mini Yosemite. The Caldor Fire was VERY close to our property and a back burn was initiated nearby the cabins (litererally 200' away!). It is still as beautiful as ever but please know there are lots of slash piles. Falling trees and burned up stump holes are also a risk and it is presumed campers will be cautious and use at their own risk. We ask campers to use our property only for land use and river access, NO up or down river access is permitted AT ALL. Please don't hesitate to shoot us a message if you have any questions!

Richfield Oil Company soon moved in and extracted nearly 300 million barrels of oil in just a few short years. To accommodate an exploding workforce in the early 1950s, the company built the town of New Cuyama, its infrastructure, public buildings, the Cuyama airstrip (L88) and all the industrial structures that are now home to Blue Sky. Richfield Oil Company, later merging with Atlantic Oil Company forming the Atlantic Richfield Oil Company (ARCO), created high-paying jobs, a safe and prosperous community, and developed schools, churches, and recreational areas for the employee-residents.1973- With dwindling production in the area and new discoveries in Alaska, Atlantic-Richfield Oil Company put the town of New Cuyama and its associated infrastructure up for sale. Word of an entire town for sale made its way to entrepreneur, Russell O’Quinn of the Foundation for Airborne Relief (FAR) and Mildred Dotson, a wealthy widow from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The two worked together to acquire the townsite and adjacent land. O’Quinn, an aviator, inventor, and test pilot, aspired to use the New Cuyama airstrip and facilities as a base for humanitarian relief and a non-profit trade school. Though not fully realized, FAR’s primary vision included utilizing converted military aircraft to airlift food and medical supplies to developing countries and global disaster areas. Dotson had loftier goals. Her plans included an 18-hole fly-in golf course, expansion of the Buckhorn Restaurant and Motel, and a 40- to 50-acre lake for amphibious landing and water sports. 1986- Another visionary, Harry Kislevitz, inventor of the popular design tool Colorforms® and founder of Future City/Villages International, sought to develop the site as a “City of Friendship,” an all-electric village of 5,000 earthen homes. The dwellings were to be designed by Nader Khalili, an Iranian-born architect who specialized in earthen structures, worked with NASA on prototypes for lunar homes and received an award from the United Nations for his work towards the development of low cost, sustainable structures for human shelter in impoverished and disaster prone environments. One 628-sq-ft Khalili prototype remains on the property today ("the Cantina"). Khalili went on to form the California Institute for Earth Art and Architecture, Cal-Earth, in Hesperia, CA.1993- Recognizing the transformative potential of clean, solar power and the attractiveness of a rural destination, entrepreneur Mike Nolan worked to develop the Solar Skypark and Big Sky Guest Ranch with Santa Barbara Architect, Barry Berkus. The Sky Park included plans for sixty-five fly-in residences on one-acre lots powered completely from clean, solar energy. The Big Sky Guest Ranch was intended to function as a clubhouse for Skypark residents complete with an equestrian center, a small subsistence farm, pool and plenty of enriching recreational activities. 2012- At the end of 2011, the Zannon Family Foundation made a long-term investment in acquiring the New Cuyama Airport property with the vision of rehabilitating the site to be a low-cost resource for programs and organizations working to advance sustainable living practices and technologies. Plans began soon after towards developing a framework and organization to develop the space and coordinate with prospective programs and institutions. In 2014 Blue Sky Sustainable Living Center ("Blue Sky Center") received 501(c)(3) not-for-profit status, endeavoring to reclaim this property for the public good. Today, Blue Sky Center provides unduplicated services and technical assistance to support small businesses and entrepreneurs as well as the local food system, with core work focused on community research and advocacy led by Cuyamans.

Sustainable Ecovillage

5 sites · Lodging160 acres · Gasquet, CA

The Smith River Complex Fire took our property on August 16th, 2023. Updates on our progress here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fucaTaOwf5c PLEASE NOTE, 4WD is required in order to access the sites. Please message me if you have any questions prior to booking. Sustainable Ecovillage is an off-grid project for sustainable living. If you are looking for a unique experience and up for rustic accommodations among goats, chickens, a permaculture food forest with a few off-grid perks, we welcome you to join us in our mountainous, wilderness paradise! Our 160-acre property is surrounded by about a million acres of National Forest. Our neighborhood is all made of trees, huckleberry bushes and animals. We love it here. It is very remote, peaceful, and functionally sustainable in its focus. The closest neighbor is a Buddhist Hermitage about a mile up the forestry road. Also, supposedly, Sasquatch live here! (it is the epicenter for documented sightings). Most visitors to the area are interested in spending time in the redwoods – we are about 30-45 minutes from the nearest entrance to Jedediah Smith Park, home of Stout Grove and other beautiful redwood hikes. Driving into Crescent City, about 45-60 minutes, winds you right through the "gentle giants" on your way to or from Redwood National Park. We are self-sufficient, and sustainable in a relatively primitive set-up, especially after the fire this year. It's mountainous and remote, and we have a community agreement about no smoking (of any kind) on our land.

Underworld Farms

15 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents6 acres · Kernville, CA

Underworld Farms is a small goat ranch in the Kern River Valley. Surrounded by forestry land, on the Kern River, and on top of what used to be the old town of Whiskey Flat (Later re-named Kernville). There is no end to the beauty, history and adventure all around the property. Life took us to the Kern River Valley after moving out of Los Angeles. We enjoy living in the Southern Sierras immersed in all its natural beauty. The small but magnificent town of Kernville is approximately two and a half miles north of us. Our livestock includes horses, dairy goats, sheep, and rabbits: Most of which are raised and bred as our son's 4H or FFA projects. You may be wondering why our farm is called "Underworld Farms". In a nutshell, since our ranch is on the footprint of the historic town of Whiskey Flat, we just happen to be south of the old Whiskey Flat "Boot Hill" Cemetery. Our "driveway" is the road that led from the old town of Kernville to the cemetery. We hope that you consider parking your RV, van conversion, or trailer on one of our customized spots on the property. Or drive your vehicle and pitch a tent on one of our tent friendly sports. Or enjoy a stay in one of our small cabins. Regardless of what you stay in, you will definitely have a memorable time. The campground is VERY barebones and rural. Critters, bugs, and sometimes fellow Hipcampers can be sparce or prevalent pretty randomly. Because Underworld Farms is a working ranch, you will probably hear livestock noises like horses neighing, sheep and goats calling, and our protector dogs barking from time to time. We encourage you to walk over to the horses and goats and meet them. They especially like when you bring them carrots or apple pieces. The ranch has a double outhouse with a hand washing station sandwiched in between, it is rustic and bare bones. We check it to see if it has paper products, soap, water, and plenty of room in the trash bins. During the hotter months, the "daddy longleg" spiders enjoy infiltrating the outhouses and seem to spin new webs overnight. But they and their webs are harmless and easy to brush off. We ask for your assistance if there is something missing, or the trash needs taking out, or if the spiders have taken over again by getting ahold of us through the Hipcamp App and letting us know. With all that being said, there is an ambient beauty here that is unbelievable and memorable. This beauty and draw is so powerful that it causes the many people who come visit to make arrangements to live in our little valley. There is much to do in and around our valley that you couldn't do it all in a lifetime. We hope that you come and stay at the ranch while enjoying our valley. May you have a great time. *** THE PIN MAP ON HIPCAMP IS NOT 100% ACCURATE. PLEASE REFFER TO THE MAP OF THE PROPERTY IN THE PHOTOS

Cabins in California guide

Overview

North, south, east, west—point to a location on a California map and you’re likely to find a nearby natural icon or relaxing spot for a cabin stay. Head to Mendocino for a woodsy experience near the Redwood trees of Mendocino Woodlands State Park, or discover these coastal giants at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park just outside Santa Cruz, where cabins also offer proximity to surfing beaches. For a mountain escape, consider a lakeside cabin resort at Shasta Lake for summertime boating and swimming, a slopeside A-frame at Lake Tahoe for a winter ski trip, or a Bass Lake cabin just south of Yosemite National Park. In Napa, get off the beaten wine trail at Lake Berryessa for fishing, kayaking, and boating, or hit the Central Coast to discover the wonder of Big Sur, where cabin resorts and campgrounds line the Big Sur River. In SoCal, Big Bear Lake offers year-round activities in San Bernardino National Forest.
