Cute little cabin nestled in Tahoe National forest . This little gem is on an acre of land surrounded by national forest land. Close enough to Lake Tahoe to get to but also away from the Tahoe chaos.
Host lives on property , but will most likely be out and about most of the day. There are two neighbors but both own 20 acres so you can not see them, feels very private.
The front of the property where the cabin is located there will be some highway noise being close to highway 20 , especially during a busy weekend. you can’t hear highway noise while in the cabin and towards the back of the land.
However it is nice to be so close to highway 20 because it leads to several different destinations. ( west : Nevada city. east: towards Tahoe, and both directions there are soo many lakes/ rivers )
Tiny house: •Full sized futon downstairs and king sized mattress in loft. Electric fireplace, all the game boards , cards, chess, fire pit, projector for movies if requested!!!
•Additional guests are welcome to pitch a tent on the land if needed.
•Hot plate, toaster oven, mini fridge, kitchen appliances, coffee (French press, drip, mocha pot). Black stone grill outside. Fire pit , check if fires are allowed during booking
•Separate bathroom with compost toilet or a short walk to outhouse. Outdoor shower in the making, message if available.
FUN: •Lake Spaulding is about 1/4 mile hike down from the property. There is a boat launch and plenty of room to park it on the property if you want to bring a boat. Also have two paddle boards you are welcome to use.
Rivers/lakes/swimming holes: •emerald pools, crystal clear water , cliff jumping , waterfalls . 10 minute drive •south yuba river 5-15 minutes depending on the spot (ask for recommendations ) •bowman lake road connects to several lakes . 10 minute drive •lake valley reservoir , 10 minute drive •donner lake, rent kayaks, paddle boards or a boat. 20 minutes • eagle lakes rd swimming hole about 5 minutes •truckee, the cutest town with fun shops, restaurants and bars, 25 minutes .

Please note:
We have two 'Overnighter' sites these are instant book for weary travelers and not meant as full on camping sites. Site 1 and site 2 or Antelope please refrain from booking unless you are traveling through -
All other camp sites require a minimum of 24 hours notice this allows for getting the sites ready - so if you want to camp here please note this requirement
If you are traveling w a bumper pull of any type you need to book Big Rig ( soon to be named Art Camp) this is our only pull through camp site all others only tiny teardrops, cassettes, tents, vans, cars, or cab overs.
Bobcat is great for tents, cars, vans, small trucks, no bumper pulls
Camping here is low activity experience as in there is hiking up in the National Forest or just hanging out in your camp site, or bring your camera, notebook and binoculars, or road bike.
When you come to camp here you are on a farm in transition. Girlfarm has been a local food go to for restaurants, farm family members, and regenerative agriculture interests. Today, the farm is looking forward to a new course in agri tourism as we begin planning walking gardens, art installations in the landscape, and interactive classes.
If you would like fresh veggies contact Prema Farm one day BEFORE arrival -
Please come visit in April May and June it is some of the most green and lush times in the high desert. It can also bring snow, winds, and rain. Be prepared- look at the forecast and contact me directly if you have concerns
SKEETERS are around we also recommend tents have a rain fly and ground cloth.
Welcome
It was important to choose a partner like Hipcamp to invite like minded individuals who respect both the natural environment and the idea of less is more.
At any time you may encounter farming activities, building out of tiny houses, gardens in the process of creation, snakes, bugs, ticks, and wild animals.
As we move toward offering the land as a place to both find solitude or chosen participation our Flyte and Sparrow experience will hopefully be a place you will want to return to as your own tradition.

Bright Bear Camp is a private two-acre property bordering Tahoe National Forest. We are located at 4300' elevation down a mostly dirt road along the beautiful Bear River and Bear Valley. This is a very peaceful spot among the trees with a small meadow and creek on the property.
As our name suggests, bears are occasionally in the area so keep an eye out. You may also see the spotted owls that live nearby - listen closely for their calls (https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Spotted_Owl/overview).
There is much to explore in the area and more with only a short drive to the South Yuba River, Emerald Pools, Lake Spaulding, Donner Pass, Donner Lake, and Truckee.

Set on 3 pristine acres in an open meadow surrounded by pine and cedar, our Yurt offers incredible views with a serene peaceful setting. This is the only rental on the property, so it is super private. You have your own separate driveway, and the owner's home is on the other side of the land, ensuring a very private stay.
This is luxury yurting! The owner spared no expense in the buildout and furnishings. Every detail has been considered to make your stay unforgettable, including fast WiFi, well equipped kitchen & bath, high-end furniture and bedding, epic sunset patio views, great recommendations in town, and close proximity to the Yuba river (7 min drive to Edwards Xing) and all that Nevada City / Grass Valley has to offer.

This magical and private Yurt in the woods are just 2 miles from Nevada City
Come experience the Beauty of the Sierra Foothills and the Yuba River in our Yurts tucked into the forest just 2 miles from downtown Nevada City.
With a natural creek right outside your door and hiking trails right off the deck, this serene and beautiful yurt retreat awaits you.
Nevada City is renowned for its excellent food, shopping, nightlife and farmer’s market. A leisurely walk into town takes 45 mins, bike in 15 or drive in 5.
Grass Valley is 10 minutes away as well and has more food, shopping, and entertainment for you.
Access to the Yuba River is as close as 20 mins to Edwards Crossing and 20 mins to Hoyts Crossing on Highway 49.
We absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax.
Each yurt has a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm.
Each yurt has a kitchen that is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc.
Each yurt has a Queen bed with a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night.
Each yurt has its own dedicated wood-fired hot tub. It requires a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot.
Things you might like to bring: headlamps, robe, flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes.
Water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you. It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually.
We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious.
The hot tub: it’s wood fired. This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. It’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there! This tub may have leaves in it (they fall from above) and cloudy water. The water should NOT smell, the cloudiness is a part of the cedar tubs charm- ash from the fire and particulate from the cedar mix together. We treat it between guests with natural products that maintain the wood (you can’t use chlorine in these tubs). We clean it regularly. Shower before using it to wash off any oils please! The outdoor shower is lovely :)
Fireplace: We will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental. If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system- It takes a lot of time and resources to keep wood stocked for the property. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log with you. Please leave the lighter behind for the next guest.
Sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights, It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. This is a real treat during our hot summers. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season.
We live in the woods, there are bugs and wild animals on/or near the property. This is part of the country charm and should be expected. Please don't leave food outside.
Land acknowledgment:
We acknowledge that our property is located on unceeded land. It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss.
We donate 10% of AIRBB proceeds between CHIRP which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe.

We are a small privately owned campground ( on the outskirts of Placerville. The property features 86.5 secluded Tahoe like acres with beautiful year-round Weber Creek. The camp sites are placed along the creek or the bluff overlooking the creek. We have traditional dirt camping, canvas tents on platforms, teepees and glamping tents for those that want the comforts of home. We are tent camping only with only one site that allows a small travel trailer or van. (#14) . We are dog friendly and allow dogs in all but 5 glamping sites. We do enforce camp rules especially our quiet time between 10 PM and 7 AM
We’ve been told that we have a “family camp” vibe. We are a great place for families wanting a safe environment for their kids but also several group sites for those that want to hang out together with multiple families. We are also a great base site for those wilderness enthusiasts with access to all the El Dorado National Forest including Desolation but want a hot shower at the end of the day.
We have a lodge that is stocked with games and a ping pong table. The lodge has a microwave, Keurig machine and a hot water kettle for those hot drinks (BYO Cups).We have several tables set up for those that want to eat inside as well as multiple picnic tables along the side of the lodge with overhead protection. We have electricity at the at the lodge for small appliances and charging phones. We have a compressor on site to blow up your air mattresses or float toys. We’ve been told that our bathrooms are the “cleanest” ever and have changing tables and diaper pails. We offer nice flushing toilets and hot showers! We have many extra amenities including a compressor to use for your air mattresses,
For outdoor activities we have basketball, volleyball, pickleball and cornhole not to mention the playground with swing set . We have hiking trails throughout the property. Our highlight is a camp fire bowl with bench seating with a stage to display camper talent which is perfect for the evening fire and roasting s’mores (bring the fixings).
The creek starts out in spring looking like a rushing river featuring many fishing and swimming holes. As the summer progresses the water level falls but is still great for water play and fishing.
We have propane BBQs (we provide the propane for BBQs) located throughout the property. We also have a propane grill and charcoal BBQ located in the common area for all to use. There is a dutch oven pit also in the fire bowl area.
We do not allow wood fires at the individual sites but each site has a propane firepit for ambiance (not cooking) that requires you to purchase a 20 lb. propane cannister on site (add in extras) or pay cash on site.
No internet service. There is limited internet only available for purchases at the setore.
We require a 3 night minimum for the major holidays - Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day. We do exclusive events so you may need to explore multiple weekends to find the right reservation.
We are located in the foothills so we are a short hop to many local attractions that include river rafting, gold mines, wineries and historical towns with great eating establishments. Tahoe is less than an hour away and there a many hiking trails within 20-30 minutes.
We have a limited number of items to rent i.e, tents, cots, camp stoves, etc. We rent a battery pack for those that use a cpap. We also have a small store on site for those items you forgot and a good selection of ice cream and ice. We take venmo or cash.

The bathhouse is a treasure. My kid and I enjoyed the hot tub in the evening, and then again in the early morning. Being in that wooden hot tub with all the trees in front made me feel so in tune with myself. Jo communicated quickly and even though I didn’t meet her in person, in her messages she was very nice. The bedding was clean. I got to see the sunrise through the trees from the platform while meditating, and after the hot tub soaking we left to spend the day in Nevada city. My kid and I had a great stay.

Camp Nauvoo is the perfect place to unplug. The property is incredibly nice, clean, and well-maintained, offering a wonderful blend of comfort and nature.
The best part of the stay was the absolute silence. It is incredibly quiet and peaceful, especially at night, making it the perfect sanctuary for relaxation and recharging. We had a wonderful, restful time and highly recommend it!

We had a great time, the camp was perfect for the family. It was such a treat to camp near the water, our kids spent most the time jumping on rocks and looking for gold. And sleeping to the sound of the creeks running water solidified our return Camp Nauvoo. Also worth mentioning, they have a huge green space for play and relaxing. Plenty of gas bbqs, picnic tables and fire pits for every camp site. No need to over pack like we did. The camp owner, Greg, and hosts, Charlie and Crystal were super helpful and also helped make my daughter's 12th birthday special by leading a happy birthday song and even gave her a sweet birthday 🧁 during the community campfire eve. ❤️

Weekend Trip to Cozy Luxury Yurt @ Lazy Dog Ranch
This was one of the most peaceful places I've ever been. You already start to feel calm just driving to the yurt, and when you get there, it's a perfect, cute little fairy haven. It is spotless, perfectly fitted for comfort and aesthetics, with a wildly comfortable mattress, sheets, and pillows. You'll desire everything in the yurt, from the old school vintage fridge to the Marshall speaker. It's also got everything you need for staying in and cooking, or nearby Nevada City downtown has lovely spots to eat and listen to music. The bathroom is a full, comfortable bathroom directly attached to the room. The swimming spot 6 minutes' drive away is one of the coolest locations I've ever been with perfect temperatures, at least in June. Thank you so much for this stay, my first HipCamp stay!

Weekend Trip to Roughlands
Use Google maps to get there! Poppy is the better of the two platforms if you want less sun in the mornings. The bath house was very upscale and nice. The hot tub had dark water (probably due to the iron rich soils of the area) and took about 1.5-2hrs to heat from 84F to 104F. Nice forest and field views. Wildflowers and wildlife in the area including bunnies, birds, foxes, and squirrels.

Had a great experience. The location is so beautiful and well connected to scenic trails. Tim was very communicative and gave great directions on how to get there.
We appreciated all the amenities in the cabin.

Kelley is a great host. Communication was good. She was available if needed but allowed us our privacy. Pearl is a small Airstream that accommodated 2 adults and dog perfectly. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. The outdoor shower was a few steps away. The setup was clean and water was warm. The forested surrounding are beautiful.

Weekend Trip to Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF
We visited Kelley's hipcamp as an 18 person group for 3 days/2 nights and had an incredible time! To get the main downside out of the way--there were a lot of mosquitos, which came out in the morning and at mid-afternoon. That said, Kelley has a beautiful property, clean and well appointed facilities for her guests to use, and is an all around incredible camping host. She was flexible, helpful, friendly and kind. We would recommend her hipcamp to anyone looking to camp in the Tahoe NF area!

Jeff's cabin was great - super cool location and clean and cozy, and a very good value. We loved exploring the areas around the cabin and there is so much to do. Jeff was a helpful host and a cool guy. Definitely recommend a stay to anyone in the area.

Group trip
Beautiful place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back in a heartbeat. Hot tub worked well and was so relaxing. The lake was gorgeous and only 10 minute drive away. We had such a relaxing weekend!!! Came here to celebrate my birthday and we want to make it an annual trip now. My friends said the futon was very comfortable. Plenty of extra blankets to use as well.

This was our first camping trip as a family and the first time for our daughter. We stayed in the family Miwuk Teepee and it was such a blast. Greg was very kind and accommodating and they have alot to do on site. We explored the trails, the river/creek and swim hole. We even scoped out the next spot we want to stay next time we visit! There was a volleyball net which we used for our badminton set and a swinger which the kids enjoyed. When it was too hot or cold we enjoyed ping pong and board games in the lodge! Would 10/10 recommend!!

Weekend Trip to Lazy Bear Cabin
As my first Hipcamp stay, it was perfect. Perfect location, easy to find. The surrounding forest was beautiful. The cabin itself set was very nice and cozy. We did our best to keep it the way we found everything. We couldn’t find a sponge so we weren’t able to the dishes but not many were left. It was a great experience.

We had a great time nestled in the cool and very private woods on Nathan's property. The site had far more amenities than we originally thought, including both an indoor and outdoor shower, seasoned firewood that could be purchased onsite, hidden pathways to creekside seating, and a secret spot outfitted with double hammocks. They've put a lot of care into landscaping the communal areas in a way that feels curated, but looks natural. We cooked up a storm and started and ended our days with the sounds of trickling streams - the only difficult thing was deciding which fire source to light each night! Will definitely come back with friends to rent both the East Yurt and West Yurt together. Just note that there is 1 onsite parking spot per yurt, so come in the same vehicle as the person you'll be staying with.

We had a wonderful stay at Pearl. Kelley’s detailed directions made it super easy to find the place and settle in. Pearl was incredibly cozy, and everything—from the decor to the small details—felt thoughtfully arranged and well cared for.
The location was perfect as well. It was conveniently situated between Nevada City and Lake Tahoe, which made it easy for us to explore both during our trip.
We also brought our dog, and it was such a great experience. The off-leash space was a huge plus, and our dog had a great time too, which made the stay even more relaxing for us.
My wife and I both enjoyed our time here so much that we were already saying we’d love to come back. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you Kelley!
