Around the giant redwoods and meadows we have sprinkled in the most amazing little cabins, camp sites and deluxe bath house. We have a great outdoor camp kitchen available for your use. The redwood tree shower must not be missed!
This is a very special experience for us to share with you.
We are a family of campers. We agree, there's nothing better than a rest in a hammock following a hike or a beach day and a night under the stars without the constant dinging of cell and internet!
Guests love staying here: "Such a lovely getaway! Our family of four and little dog thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Heartwood. The cabins are great, with comfortable (warm) beds, very clean and cozy. It’s well worth the visit even in the winter! Really appreciated being outdoors surrounded by Redwoods, hiking the trails around the property, the modern bathrooms with hot showers, and the indoor sitting area to make coffee in the mornings. Our stay was relaxing, memorable and special!"
Please remember that we are in the woods and there is wildlife around. We don't want them to get into your food items, and recommend that you place food items in the enclosed common room or in the critter proof cupboards in the outdoor kitchen.

We feel certain you will not be disappointed with our beautiful river canyon. Our property is situated right on the middle fork Cosumnes river. 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 our house (literally 200' away!). Our property became a pivotal point of fighting the fire in our community known as the “Ant Hill Army”. Ask us about the story!

3 nights at San Diego Canyon Creek
We had a fabulous time at Laura’s cabin. From the comfortable bed, cozy cabin, outdoor kitchen to cook in, clean bathroom, it was just what we needed to get away for a weekend and relax. The location is close enough to San Diego to go out for the day and explore but secluded enough in the mountains to enjoy falling asleep to the sound of peepers and the creek right outside your door. I would highly recommend Laura and her accommodating, kind energy.

What a stunning glamping experience! We’ve never “glamped” before, and this was a great introduction.
Firstly, that bed was 100000000/10 INCREDIBLE!!! More comfortable than our bed at home! It was a complete surprise that the bed was heated, and even better that we could each control the heat on our separate sides of the bed. We visited during very cold, rainy weather, and that heat came in clutch!
Second, huge surprise that our door could lock, we felt very safe at night.
Third, bathrooms were well kept and versatile. We were provided towels in our campsite, which was super helpful.
We didn’t get a chance to cook so the communal kitchen was not used by us. However, we noticed the “common space” was well equipped and had a toaster oven, tea kettle, and coffee machine, there were blankets and games too. Across the way was firewood, as well.
Only negative note… READ THE DIRECTIONS FROM THE HOST!!!! Drive very slowly and follow the directions very carefully.
We were naive to think it wouldn’t be that hard, and missed it completely. You truly have no service. Do not arrive in the dark, it will terrify you. Plan to arrive in the daylight so if you miss it, you’re not scared…
Despite this, would still recommend this place in a heartbeat. The proximity to Mendocino is chef’s kiss. Great listing!

Weekend Trip to Heartwood Mendocino
I was so happy to return to heartwood this time with my sister. We stayed in the cabin this time and it was so cozy during the rainy weekend. We got to shower in the outdoor tree shower that was magical. We already have plans to bring my sisters baby next time :). This place is truly one of a kind.

Heartwood Mendocino completely blew us away. From the moment we arrived it felt like stepping into a peaceful, thoughtfully designed escape that somehow balances comfort, nature and community all at once.
The cabin was incredible. Cozy, nicely set up and the heated sheets were next level, especially after a cool and rainy evening. The outdoor tree shower was an experience, equal parts relaxing and unique.
The property is perfectly set up for both adults and kids. Our 6 year old son loved the wide open space to run around and the hiking trails right nearby made it easy to stay active without having to go anywhere. One of the unexpected highlights was hunting for banana slugs which turned into a full on adventure and kept him entertained for hours (nice break for mom and dad).
The communal vibe at Heartwood is something special. The shared space feels welcoming without being intrusive and the hosts are genuinely kind, thoughtful people who clearly care about the experience they’re creating. You can feel it in every detail.
Evenings around the fire pit making s’mores were a perfect way to wind down and the peace sign meadow is great for relaxing or playing tag.
If you’re looking for a place that feels peaceful, connected to nature, family friendly and still elevated and unique, Heartwood Mendocino absolutely delivers. We’ll be back without question!

We loved staying at Wondernut Farm!! Our cabin was perfect and had everything we could need, and the view from inside was gorgeous...awesome for catching moonlight views at bedtime and seeing the sun rise over the farm. The resident animals (including the most epic friendly dog crew!!) were all so much fun to be around, and Matt, Eve and the other people there were all lovely, and very welcoming to young children. Our bed was super comfy, and the shower was warm and spacious with a great view. We'll definitely be back next chance we get!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Falls Yosemite Camp
Cute little cabin! We enjoyed cooking dinner over the campfire and seeing the waterfall off in the distance. It is very private, but conveniently located close to Oakhurst town. Wendy was very welcoming and accommodating to us!

This place was fabulous! The treehouse was cozy and the view was unmatched! We did some tent camping as well and there was plenty of space for that. The little kids in our party got a kick out of all the animals and my nephew got to hold a 2-day old baby lamb. The walk down and up to the lake was a bit of a hike, but not too bad. Jeremy was a fabulous host!

John has such a cool spot! He gave us a tour right as we arrived. He’s a very kind man and built everything himself. My family of four loved the cabin and loved walking around on the trail. The bed and cot were great for us, and we cooked on the grill. It was a very peaceful stay!

Weekend Trip to Bayside Cabin
It was a cute little rustic cabin, perfect for 2 people and 2 dogs. The wood burning stove was great and heated the cabin nicely. The only downside was the lack of privacy for the glass bathroom door, the curtain was sheer and you could see through the door. Also be prepared for bugs and slugs! :)

1 night at A Unique Mountain Retreat
Our stay at this cabin was truly a great experience from start to finish. John was very attentive and made the entire stay smooth and enjoyable.
The cabin itself was incredibly cozy and warm, with a unique charm that made it feel special. The views were absolutely amazing and added so much to the overall atmosphere despite the weather we had. We did experience some strong winds during our visit, but even with that, we still fully enjoyed our time there. It didn’t take away from the experience at all.
Overall, it’s the perfect spot to get away from the city while still being close enough to grab anything you might need. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable stay.

2 nights at Hidden Falls Yosemite Camp
We had an excellent time at Hudson and Wendy’s cabin. It was perfectly cozy in the lower temps in the evening and early morning and the little deck was just enough space to do our cooking and have morning coffee. The distance to Yosemite entrance was so convenient (about 25 min) and the view to the waterfall from the deck is just unforgettable. The setup was excellent and the only thing that could’ve made it better is a bathroom close by but I know they are working on getting it completed soon. ☺️ the bathroom down the hill was not that far but we mostly just used the little pop-up setup. Our car battery died on one night and Wendy and Hudson were very responsive in helping us out which we so appreciated!! Would recommend this stay to anyone looking for a lovely camping experience with the comforts of a cabin structure, bed, and heater/AC.

Beautiful, fun, great hospitality. Amazing spot for animal lovers! Jeremy is a super kind guy and great communicator. Lake access is killer, but solid incline on the hike back up to campsites. Might keep in mind for groups with accessibility needs, but otherwise a nice amount of exercise! Everything was as described or better. Highly recommend!

Heartwood was a fantastic, and magical spot. Used this as a spot to sleep while exploring the area but quickly set the stage for the whole trip. Super easy check-in. Such close attention to details with gnomes, fairy lights, and heated bed that makes it all oh-so cozy. It was a quick and easy drive from Heartwood to Mendicino proper, did a hike :15 min away in the Russian Gulch to see a beautiful waterfall through the fern canyon, and a short little stop away from Fort Bragg and the glass beach. Would definitely come back and bring a group to each have our own cabin.

We loved everything: the grounds themselves, the opportunity to see the animals, the incredibly affectionate dogs, and the really cool restrooms (!). The kitchen in the barn was also very romantic! However, we didn't like that everything was so spread out; we had to constantly trek back and forth between the campfire pit, the house, the restroom, and the kitchen.
Also, once it got dark—while we were grilling chicken—the dogs kept coming around; it was uncomfortable having to shoo away such huge hounds, and eventually, they even started fighting right next to us.
It's a pity there's only one bed in the house—maybe we could bring in a folding cot or something similar?
