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 We are looking for a seasonal self contained camper to do campground maintenance and upkeep. trade Only NO PETS SELF CONTAINED and background check Its been a huge water season so 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.

Learn more about this land: Tent sites are next to the pear orchard. Choose any site. There is no need to meet with the host when you arrive. Follow the red arrows. Do not proceed the home located at 1071 Fruitridge. Look for the Hipcamp sign and red arrow markers and turn left into the orchard lane. Location: Use google maps and locate 1071 Fruitridge Rd in Placerville, CA. When you get to 1071, which is a house on the right side of the paved driveway, look for our Hipcamp sign in red, turn hard right into the orchard and follow the red arrows past a wood barn, and up to a small red shed. At this point you may camp in the meadow next to the shed or you may proceed to the next meadow over to the left (follow red arrows and look for umbrellas). We normally only have one site occupied per evening. Ocaisonally two sites will be occupied. The sites are very private and quiet as this is a large, private ranch. You can park close to your tent site. 2WD / 4WD access weather permitting. We offer 3 sites in a large meadow area. Max of 4 persons per site. RV's welcome but we do not have hookups. RV's will be parked next to our barns surrounded by pear orchards. Fresh drinking water is available in the tent meadow area. Hot showers are now available at $10 extra per nite per site. A gas BBQ is now available at a common area. Please don't move the BBQ. Deer, wild turkeys, geese aplenty. Ample walking opportunities on our ranch and wild forestlands and amazing granite rock outcrops. Visit the South Fork of the American River (you can raft in summer!) Hunt for old gold mines on our place and, maybe, find some new ones! Go wine tasting very close by (Lava Cap, Madrone, Boeger) and visit Sutter's Mill in Coloma, where gold was discovered back in 1848.

Campfire Ranch Lost Trail is a private lodge tucked into Coldstream Canyon outside Truckee — a quiet, secluded basecamp for Tahoe trips when you’d rather skip the lake crowds and come home to privacy, no neighbors, and a real meal on the table. This isn’t a lakefront rental, and we don’t try to be. Lost Trail is for groups that want the “tucked-away Tahoe” experience: woods, trails, fireplace nights, warm rooms, hot showers, and the feeling that you actually disappeared for a minute. Three ways to stay: • East Wing (up to 6) • West Wing (up to 6) • Whole Lodge (up to 12) All-inclusive meals (included in the nightly rate): Travel light: we’ll do the cooking. Share dietary restrictions/preferences in your booking notes so we can plan ahead. What’s included: • Arrival day: afternoon snack, dinner, dessert • Each full day: breakfast, afternoon snack, dinner, dessert • Departure day: breakfast • Alcohol: BYOB Privacy + hosting Your host/chef is on-site the entire stay (in separate sleeping quarters — not in your lodge space). You’ll have full privacy, with real support when you need it. Getting here (summer): Summer access is by vehicle, but it’s a mountain approach. AWD/4WD required. It’s roughly a 4-mile drive on county roads to reach the property, and we’ll confirm your vehicle + how to get here in your pre-arrival messages. Winter note (important): In winter, this becomes a remote backcountry lodge with a mandatory ~4-mile over-snow approach via skis/splitboard with skins or snowshoes. Pets: Up to 2 pets are welcome. Pets may not be left unattended; pet food isn’t included.

Learn more about this land: Tent sites are next to the pear orchard. Choose any site. There is no need to meet with the host when you arrive. Follow the red arrows. Do not proceed the home located at 1071 Fruitridge. Look for the Hipcamp sign and red arrow markers and turn left into the orchard lane. Location: Use google maps and locate 1071 Fruitridge Rd in Placerville, CA. When you get to 1071, which is a house on the right side of the paved driveway, look for our Hipcamp sign in red, turn hard right into the orchard and follow the red arrows past a wood barn, and up to a small red shed. At this point you may camp in the meadow next to the shed or you may proceed to the next meadow over to the left (follow red arrows and look for umbrellas). We normally only have one site occupied per evening. Ocaisonally two sites will be occupied. The sites are very private and quiet as this is a large, private ranch. You can park close to your tent site. 2WD / 4WD access weather permitting. We offer 3 sites in a large meadow area. Max of 4 persons per site. RV's welcome but we do not have hookups. RV's will be parked next to our barns surrounded by pear orchards. Fresh drinking water is available in the tent meadow area. Hot showers are now available at $10 extra per nite per site. A gas BBQ is now available at a common area. Please don't move the BBQ. Deer, wild turkeys, geese aplenty. Ample walking opportunities on our ranch and wild forestlands and amazing granite rock outcrops. Visit the South Fork of the American River (you can raft in summer!) Hunt for old gold mines on our place and, maybe, find some new ones! Go wine tasting very close by (Lava Cap, Madrone, Boeger) and visit Sutter's Mill in Coloma, where gold was discovered back in 1848.

Campfire Ranch All-Inclusive Lodge

19. Campfire Ranch All-Inclusive Lodge

14mi from Kings Beach · 3 sites
Campfire Ranch Lost Trail is a private lodge tucked into Coldstream Canyon outside Truckee — a quiet, secluded basecamp for Tahoe trips when you’d rather skip the lake crowds and come home to privacy, no neighbors, and a real meal on the table. This isn’t a lakefront rental, and we don’t try to be. Lost Trail is for groups that want the “tucked-away Tahoe” experience: woods, trails, fireplace nights, warm rooms, hot showers, and the feeling that you actually disappeared for a minute. Three ways to stay: • East Wing (up to 6) • West Wing (up to 6) • Whole Lodge (up to 12) All-inclusive meals (included in the nightly rate): Travel light: we’ll do the cooking. Share dietary restrictions/preferences in your booking notes so we can plan ahead. What’s included: • Arrival day: afternoon snack, dinner, dessert • Each full day: breakfast, afternoon snack, dinner, dessert • Departure day: breakfast • Alcohol: BYOB Privacy + hosting Your host/chef is on-site the entire stay (in separate sleeping quarters — not in your lodge space). You’ll have full privacy, with real support when you need it. Getting here (summer): Summer access is by vehicle, but it’s a mountain approach. AWD/4WD required. It’s roughly a 4-mile drive on county roads to reach the property, and we’ll confirm your vehicle + how to get here in your pre-arrival messages. Winter note (important): In winter, this becomes a remote backcountry lodge with a mandatory ~4-mile over-snow approach via skis/splitboard with skins or snowshoes. Pets: Up to 2 pets are welcome.
