Weekend Trip to Ossia Village Farm

My daughter and I car-camped at Ossia Farm and had the best time! The family who owns the property is so sweet and welcoming and Dar, the farm manager, is the most hospitable and kind person I think I have ever met! He let my teen daughter join right in with helping with the animals, he helped her pick her own salad from the garden for dinner, took us on a walk through the redwoods at the back of the property, and made our stay absolutely delightful. Thank you!

Mystic forest campground was beautiful. The owners were sweet as pie and so helpful, thoroughly going over a map with me for recommendations of nearby adventures. The showers had consistent hot water and were clean. Redwoods national park close by and our campsite had a good view of the sky for stargazing. We had a lovely time !

My daughters and I loved our stay at Ossia’s Village Farm. Hanya was warm and welcoming and Dar was so helpful and showed us the many wonderful things at camp. We loved feeding the cows, goats and sheep each morning. The shower in the greenhouse was an experience. My first experience camping was amazing at Ossia’s and we look forward to coming back if we’re back in the area.

We truly enjoyed my stay on the Ossia Village Farm. I felt welcome, safe and blessed by the abundance of the farm. My host Dar was incredibly kind, knowledgeable and peaceful guy. He was truly delightful 😊. The farm is very unique and I learned a lot as well. I love gardening myself, so it was a special treat to be camped in harmony with the land. The facilities were super clean and more then I'd expected. A shower in the greenhouse added bonus! I eat fresh greens from the greenhouse and fresh duck eggs in the morning. I helped feed the neighboring highland cows, they are so beautiful and such gentle creatures. My little dog was welcomed. He enjoyed his sniffs around the treble cleft and redwoods. We truly enjoyed a peaceful stay. ✌️ Thank you Hanya for your great communications and opening 🙏 ❤️ your lovely farm to us. We were blessed to stay with you.

We booked space 19C last minute but when we got there we asked if there were any other sites available due to 19C being the smallest site. The amazing camp host, Patrick let us know that he leaves some sites open for walk ins and call ins, so definitely give them a call if 19C is the only one you see available on Hipcamp! We ended up in site 18 which was a very large and secluded and absolutely loved it. One of the better gift shops and coffee shops we’ve been to

Such a beautiful place! We had a garden side camping spot, which was private but close enough to the bathrooms and other sites that we could easily wander over if we chose. Everybody was super friendly and helpful. We had a great visit and would definitely stay again if we came back to visit the redwoods.

My teen boys and I loved camping at Mystic Forest Campground. Tent sites were wooded and separate from RVs. It was quiet throughout despite being almost fully occupied in mid-August. The host Patrick was welcoming and helpful with hiking suggestions, and the amenities were very good, including hot showers. We would definitely stay there again!

This is the kind of campground I look for, so was happy to find it accidentally on hip camp. Mine was a last minute, peak season reservation on an unplanned road trip. Finding a spot to park the campervan in such a popular destination was a blessing. Affordable, peaceful, and very clean bathrooms/showers. Patrick’s knowledge and kindness were very much appreciated. A wonderful experience.

The best luxury RV camping near Crescent City guide

Where to go

The California Redwoods

Crescent City makes a great base for exploring the redwood Forest, named for the mammoth species of trees that dominate here, some of which are over a thousand years old. Here you can cruise along the 32-mile Avenue of the Giants to get great views of the forest, hike along the quiet Tall Trees Grove Trail, or even drive your car through a hollowed-out tree.

The California Coast Ranges

The coastal mountains inland from Crescent City Range offer ample opportunities for camping and backpacking, with a mix of deciduous and coniferous forests interspersed with streams and lakes. Much of the northern part of the range is preserved as the Klamath National Forest and the Six River National Forest.

Oregon's South Coast

Crescent City is less than a half-hour drive from the border with Oregon and offers easy access to what's arguably the prettiest stretch of the state's dramatic coastline. Spots worth visiting include the gorgeous Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor and the city of Coos Bay, known for its ample crabbing opportunities.

When to go

Crescent City has a temperate climate, with highs in the mid-50s in winter and in the mid-60s in summer. Winters here are considerably rainier than in the summer months, however, with an average of 14 days of rain in December and barely any showers at all in July and August. If you plan to hike or camp in the nearby redwoods, and don’t want to deal with summer crowds, consider visiting in September or early October.
