Darryl is a wonderful human being. His place was magical for us. It checked all the boxes, which were toilet, privacy, tranquility and wildlife. Darryl is a very attentive host and made sure we had everything that we needed or could ever want during our stay. After that, we hardly saw him or anyone else. Once booked, he reached out immediately and was quick to respond to every message. Directions were great - property was easy to find. The whole place was super quiet and tranquil. It was exactly as pictured.
We go camping to get closer to nature, to get peace/quiet, and get away from people and the chaos of highly populated areas. Darryl‘s place does not disappoint, if that’s what you’re looking for. It’s off the beaten path and secluded.
Our camp spot was perfect for us because it was right in the middle of all the wildlife. We had deer coming through our camp frequently. We got to watch the turkeys go to roost in the trees every night and glide down to the ground first thing in the morning. We fell asleep to the sound of the wind blowing in the trees, the birds chirping, and an owl hooting in the distance. It was like we were all alone on our own private island in the mountains. It was so nice that we decided against a motorcycle ride to Shelter Cove because we just wanted to stay in our campsite and enjoy it to the fullest. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you Darryl!!

Weekend Trip to Briceland Vineyards Ranch
Andrew and Rosie have a beautiful property in the Redwoods, in between Shelter Cove and Avenue of the Giants. My boyfriend and I went to both spots and loved being centrally located. The gazebo we stayed in had charm and we loved hearing nature at night dozing off into sleep. Andrew and Rose offer wine tastings and I would not pass up this opportunity. We learned so much about their wines, grape growing and winemaking in general. Their wines are phenomenal and we took some bottles home. We are definitely coming back to explore the area more but we also loved having them as hosts.

This was our 4th year at Wendy and John’s farm and I promise it never looses its magic! It’s the most beautiful, peaceful place!
John, Wendy and their dog Louie are the best hosts you could ask for!
The location is so close to the beach that you fall asleep and wake up to the sound of waves crashing. The birds will also serenade you in the morning and it’s nothing less than a fairytale land.
There is a hot shower and flushing toilets which make it that much more comfortable at the end of a long day exploring.
10/10 recommend! Kid and dog friendly.

A lovely place to camp. Lots of birds. No airplanes. No traffic. Very quiet, can hear the waves crash in the distance. Country road into town, we rode it and felt safe. We will definitely be back. Creekside was great for our toddler to explore and swing. Dog was happy too!

Wendy and John have a extraordinary piece of land here and we are so fortunate that they share it with us. Wonderful camp sites, with a table, fire ring/wood/starter and a tent if you'd like. Birds everywhere, surf crashing in the background and the feeling that nature is embracing you.

3 nights at Radio Ranch Camp
We had a wonderful time at Radio Ranch. We had initially planned on doing several hikes while in that area, but after spending one day on the ranch, we didn’t want to leave. It was so relaxing just to sit by the waterfall and read! All of the accommodations and amenities were perfect and we were really comfortable. I would 100% recommend this place!

Save some time to check out Ferndale. It’s a really cute town.

I had a wonderful night at John and Wendy’s land. John greeted me on arrival and even got a fire going for me in the rain. My only regret is I didn’t have time to explore the land!

Excellent communication, directions and hospitality. We enjoyed that is feels away from it all but not too far off the beaten path for exploring the redwoods and coast. Will go back when the orchards are in bloom!

Absolutely loved our stay here! The property is stunning and couldn’t have been more cozy. Our pup had a wonderful time and we definitely recommend using the tub!! Mallory and Jeff were so lovely and even sent an item that we left to us free of charge. It’s really a gem and thank you both so much. We can’t wait to come back and visit again with friends. Cheers!!
