2 nights at Tambo Ranch Tiny House Village

We stayed in the tiny home that sleeps four (near the main house on the property). There is a fantastic shaded garden patio area for use with the rental. Carolyn and Julio made sure we had a great stay! We really enjoyed our visit and would recommend this place without hesitation.

Really nice and quiet relaxing area to disconnect for a while but at the same time with a lot of comfort and amenities for the not ao experienced camper!

Weekend Trip to Mimi’s Hideaway

I loved the site and Mimi was super knowledgeable about outdoor activities

Weekend Trip to Quail Ridge RV Park

This place is located in the plumas national forest. It gives the feeling of lost in the woods with the perfect privacy. It has full hook ups and is very peaceful and there are several lakes around the area to adventure to with beautiful clear water. We definitely will be coming back!!.

Thank you Kristin and Ron for your hospitality. Our kids and dog really enjoyed swimming in the pond. We hope to return!

Weekend Trip to Peter's Forest Vacation Rentals

We absolutely loved this campsite! It was beautiful and clean and had a ton of amenities. I appreciated how many different sleeping/camping accommodations it offered, from basic campsites, to yurts and cabins. The location was also very convenient to Lassen National Park which was a big plus for us!

As a solo woman I felt completely safe... Beautiful property, it was nice to see Mother Nature coming back to life on the ridge... Can't wait to bring my family back, especially my grandson to ride the train...

Weekend Trip to Peter's Forest Vacation Rentals

We visited 9-11 May 2025. Living Springs is located a little off the highway and is just far enough you don’t hear road noise. Lots of trees and shade. It’s a little older but seemed in good repair. It was quiet this early in the season and we enjoyed the quiet. We had a full hookup and no issue with any of the hookups. Recommend arriving in the daylight as some of the parking can be tight. (We have an 29ft trailer). Its location is 20-30 minutes from the West gate of Lassen NP. As it was May, the Park road was still closed a few miles in.

The place is perfect, tiny cabin is so so so cozy and comfortable:) The host is so friendly and welcoming! We’ll be back there soon 😍

3 nights at Maple Creek Ranch

Such a great spot. For a quick get away. Things to know: plan for mosquitoes, they were abundant. The bathroom was amazing. Literally a flushing toilet in the middle of the woods lol. There was a lot of early morning activity, from the property owners going around on some sort of quad, to the fire department rolling through…not the work but definitely a lote less private than I was thinking. Also, there was a lot of tree clearing going on due to the past fire. Fair warning: the map is a big loop and the first leg of the loop is pretty mild, a gravel road, no crazy bumps. However. The outter part of the loop past site 1 that leads out to the main road is definitely not for small sedans or anything low to the ground. We also got a few hours of a mountain storm and ended up leaving abruptly on our last night because we were getting flooded out. The campsite turned into a small ocean in the matter of an hour. And thank god my Subaru outback is All Wheel Drive! The road out would have been completely impossible if not for my Subaru. And even then we were sliding all over the place. The road out was ROUGH and was all red clay dirt that turned to mush after 20 mins of rain. Without ALL/4WD we would have been stuck in seconds. So, do yourself a favor and make the whole drive through if you suspect rain and make sure you can get out. Otherwise, this was good spot about 30 mins outside Chico, Ca. Would visit again without the possibility of rain.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

We had a great experience at Maple Creek Ranch. Ron was very helpful with anything questions and requests we had. The sites are spread apart and you can barely see the other. There was an issue with the outdoor shower and Ron let us use the shower at the airbnb on the property.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

This is a great spot with great hosts. Our spot was tucked into the woods with no one nearby, with a fire ring, a heavy duty picnic table, and a nice tent pad. Ron, the host, brought a 10 gal water container to help us get set up and gave us the lay of the land. Nearby was a very nice port-a-potty, a temporary solution while they work on their septic system for campers. The weather was cold, so when we were down by the charming pond, Ron had a fire going for us. At the pond, the grill setup is really nice. Due to weather changes, we didn't get to explore all the property and trails, but we are really looking forward to returning.

4 nights at Little House in the Big Woods

This place was easy to find and SO CUTE! I wanted a little getaway to just chill by sun trees, and this was a great spot for that. I really enjoyed working on a puzzle with a hot tea, and cozied up by the space heater. The only thing is I think you have to request that the fridge gets turned on before you stay, and I didn't think to. It was cool, though, because I already planned to eat out and I just kept my water in there. Lol! The shower also works great, and I really enjoyed the little salt lamp.

3 nights at Maple Creek Ranch

Great private camp spot! Even after having the Park fire, the camp area is still beautiful. The pond was awsome for my daughter to catch and release. It's a short walk down there. There's a general store close for extra ice and the hosts were very nice! BRING MOSQUITO REPELLENT! After getting the fire going and the citronella coils burning they stay away.

2 nights at Peter's Forest Vacation Rentals

Pretty campground. Staff was very accommodating. We practically had the place to ourselves. Worked well for a home base for Lassen.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

My boyfriend and I loved our stay here. Kristin was so nice. She waited until late night for us to arrive so she can personally show us our campsite. She even let us borrow her pot and brought it to us because we forgot to bring our rice cooker. So nice! The campground was very large but it was quiet and private which we liked, it felt so intimate. We explored the campground by walking the trail that Kristin told us about. There was actually no view around it aside from burnt woods and trees due to the fire that happened before. There was also a small pond with lots of fishes and turtles. Nevertheless , overall stay was pretty nice and memorable.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

My family, friends, and I spent a great weekend away here. There are 2 sites and I could barely see the other campers from site 1. Lots of room to hang out and relax. It’s fairly secluded too, and perfect if you want to have privacy. Our hosts were great. They provided us some water and resolved an issue with the toilet as well. 5 stars we would recommend staying here.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

What a gem right outside of Chico. It was a lovely stay on lovely people’s land. It was quiet, we had plenty of space, and there are opportunities to walk from the campground.

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

Kristin was warm and inviting. She left me with extra water and garbage bags. She was also very kind to my dog and let him play around the forest. Site 2 was quiet with plenty of privacy. The property is large enough to go on a couple hikes. Overall, a great experience.

Maple Creek Ranch

This year, the Park Fire has brought some changes to our surroundings, but we’re thrilled to share that our camp sites, pond area, and homes were miraculously untouched! 🌲✨ Here’s what you can expect during your stay: - Mud Creek Canyon: While this area was most affected by the fire, it remains a good spot for hiking and exploring. - The Pond: It’s looking beautiful, and we have completed restoring the stream that feeds it. Enjoy the serene environment as nature continues to flourish. - Ongoing Restoration: We’re committed to rejuvenating the land and ensuring your experience remains as wonderful as ever. ================= The Maple Creek Ranch and Tree Farm has been family owned and operated since 1934. The patriarch of the family, whose family had moved here from Sweden, had a great love of the forest and trains. The property was one of the first certified tree farms in California with the goal of nurturing a healthy forest. In the 1960’s, a mile of railroad tracks was laid and the whistle of a small, steam engine train could be heard throughout the community. Local residents and kids were treated to free train rides and special events for many years. There is a natural spring with a small creek that supplies the ponds with fresh water year around. There is also a small canyon on the property with a larger stream called Mud Creek. The land is rich in Indian history and there a artifacts and other signs on the Indians presence. The Cohasset area is relatively unknown. 15 miles from our property is Deer Creek and the Lasson National Forest is about a 2 hour drive north. While staying with us you can pitch your tent on our private 500 acres. We have 2 primitive camping spots on our property. Each spot has a picnic table and fire pit. There is a flush toilet shared for both camp sites. * During freezing weather the toilets may be closed so they don’t freeze! Please check before booking *The spots are spread out to ensure privacy. Our property is surrounded by the forest and is loaded with deer, squirrels, turkeys and other forest animals. We have numerous walking trails, a fresh water pond for fishing and swimming. Please notify us if you have an RV. Site 1 is best for RV's. Site 2 can accommodate smaller RV's.

Quail Ridge RV Park

30 sites · RVs17 acres · Strawberry Valley, CA

Quail Ridge RV Park has almost 17 acres nestled in the Plumas National Forest. We do NOT have direct water access. We are surrounded by six lakes, with Sly Creek and Lost Lake Reservoirs being the closest (about 3 mi. north of us), two major rivers and Feather Falls, the 3rd largest waterfall in California (trail is currently closed until Spring of '24). Outdoor activities abound with fishing, swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, hiking trails and mountain biking trails. You can also explore the local rivers and try your luck at gold panning. Our park is primarily divided into three areas: (1) RV sites for weekend RV's that have full hook-ups, which include 30/50 amp. electric, water and septic connection (no pull through sites); (2) an area in the middle of the park where permanent residents live; and (3) an area for volleyball, badmitten and playground on the opposite side of the park. Sorry, but due to the always present fire danger, no wood burning fires are allowed. You may use your own propane fire ring or propane or charcoal grill. We have clean laundry and showers and flush toilets on the north side of the park. There is one shower and one flush toilet for each men and women that are handicapped accessible. Showers cost $1 for 12 minutes of hot water. Cell phone service is spotty. AT&T/Cricket and sometimes Verizon work the best. We now have free Wi-Fi in the park!

Please identify the dog breed when you are making a reservation. Visit us at quailridgerv.com

The property is home to numerous trees as well. The blackberries are usually ripe for a couple of weeks from late June to early July and are delicious. The wild grapes usually ripen in September.

We have 4 large sites with full hook ups as well as space for smaller trailers if you are traveling as a group and need some extra space. The blackberries have thorns. The area is rural so naturally we have wildlife, including bears, bobcats, mountain lions, deer and rattlesnakes. While we rarely see any of our furry friends you should be aware that they do wander through from time to time. We also have dogs. They have collars to keep them away from your space, but if you wander the property be aware they do too. We are located on the corner of Pentz / Highway 70. They are not busy roads, particularly in the evening, but they do have a fair amount of traffic in the daytime. Overall the area is very quiet and peaceful. Please help us respect our neighbors by abiding by quiet hours.
