The best tiny home rentals near Fresno, California

Fresno is the gateway to some of the most breathtaking scenery in California. Within 100 miles, you can camp under towering sequoias or next to Yosemite waterfalls. Or, stay close to home with a quick RV park getaway to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

Paddle, swim, and fish year-round at one of the lakeside campgrounds in Fresno County. Hidden View sits on Hensley Lake, which is popular with water skiers and anglers. Hike and bike 40 miles of shoreline at Millerton Lake State Recreation Area. At Island Park, you can camp in the foothills and jet-ski on Pine Flat Lake.

For sites with shade trees and mountain hiking, drive east into the Sierra National Forest. Forest Service campgrounds like Wishon Bass Lake have picnic tables and fire pits. Dorabelle is known for its excellent trout fishing; you can also hike and ride horseback. To save a bit of money, head for the free Bear Wallow dispersed camping area near the Kings River.

If it’s scenery you’re after, you can’t beat Yosemite National Park. Book well in advance to get a site in the spectacular Yosemite Valley. To the southeast, explore a forest of giants at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Choose from 14 campgrounds, many with tent and RV sites.

Camping in the lowlands or foothills? Plan for hot summers and pleasant Winters. As you go into the Sierra Nevada, temperatures drop; bring warm layers year-round. Many high-elevation campsites close in the winter, but you can book cabins and yurts.

Weekend Trip to Camp ikigai Animal Sanctuary 501c3

A wonderful place to leave the city and soak up life on a sanctuary. Matt appreciates those campers who want to share the space kindly and enjoy the outdoors with intention. This space also provides so much to both novice and lifelong campers and is great for animal-loving children too. Don’t just visit to sleep and hike, make sure you spend time in community too!

Weekend Trip to The Fox Den

My husband and our little girls loved our stay at Malihsa’s Fox Den. It was my husband’s birthday and Malihsa even set up a “Happy Birthday” sign for him. The Fox Den had a cute fox theme and modern amenities like WiFi, 2 flat screen TV’s, and an Alexa that helped us control the air and lights. There was also a grill, hot tub and a fire pit on the property. The front patio and back patio were perfect spots for our family to hang out. I highly recommend the Fox Den. It was clean, cozy and modern. We hope to be back soon.

3 nights at Camp ikigai Animal Sanctuary 501c3

The camp is a perfect spot for people looking for communal outdoor recreation, with many friendly animals and amenities. It’s nearby the national parks and Fresno and you will definitely get to know the camp owners and other visitors. I would absolutely return! Be ready for the heat and bring a swimsuit and treats for the animals.

Weekend Trip to WILDER BUNGALOW n/Yosemite!

The little fish house was perfect for my fiancé and I! Coming back to the tiny house was super nice after long days at Yosemite! The tub is super peaceful and stars at night were so lovely! While the bed is in a loft it is super comfy! Kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils you could need! The bathroom was fully stocked as well for a nice hot shower! The composting toilet did throw us for a loop because we aren’t use to them. However, no scents or anything bad was coming from it so it was cool. It was just the right size and drive away from the park! Thank you for an enchanting home to retreat to!

Weekend Trip to WILDER BUNGALOW n/Yosemite!

Such a great place to rest your head while exploring the surroundings of Yosemite. The directions to get to this secluded cabin were spot on. This tiny cabin has everything you need and I plan on staying here again in the future! Great fire pit and hot tub to enjoy at night was the perfect way to end each evening. Overall, this cabin was everything I expected and much more.
