3. Missy’s Mountain Meadows

22mi from Lake Davis · 6 sites · Tents, RVs · Doyle, CA

Missy's Mountain Meadows is our 200-acre wild grass ranch, a peaceful haven nestled in the breathtaking Honey Lake Valley—just north of Reno, NV, and south of Susanville, CA. We’re Missy and Kyle, along with our two little adventurers, Lucas (2 years old) and Liam (newborn!). As a young family, we’re pouring our hearts into this land, building a dream rooted in nature, community, and sustainable living. We currently live full-time just north of Lake Tahoe (about 1.5 hours from the ranch), but Kyle typically makes it out to the property 4–5 days per week. Our ranch is a wide-open sanctuary, fully fenced and ready for you to explore with your RV, trailer, ATV, or horses. Marvel at the rolling grasslands, soak in the serene valley views, and discover the hidden springs tucked away at the back of the property. At the heart of our land is our growing honeybee apiary—a labor of love where our bees work tirelessly to turn nectar into golden honey. Feel free to roam and enjoy the entire property, with just a few simple guidelines to keep everyone safe and happy: Pets: We love pets! Please be aware that local predators (coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, etc.) may pose a risk. Close supervision is recommended for off-leash or outdoor pets. Stay Within the Fenced Area: Explore freely across the full 200 acres, but please keep all activities within the ranch boundaries. Respect the Honeybee Apiary: Observe the bees from a safe distance, especially if you’re allergic to stings. Do not enter the fenced apiary unless arranged as part of a guided tour. Solar Stock Well: Please don’t enter the gated area or drink the well water. Leave No Trace: Help us keep the ranch pristine by cleaning up after yourself and your pets or livestock. Keep the Gate Locked: Please ensure the gate remains locked at all times. This ranch is more than a stopover—it’s a place to connect with nature and share in our family’s journey. We can’t wait to welcome you to this special corner of Lassen County, where the stars shine bright and the valley whispers peace. Enjoy your adventure on our land, and make yourself at home!

4. The 395 Ranch, Seclusion & Views!

21mi from Lake Davis · 3 sites · Tents, RVs · Doyle, CA

This property lies at the base of the Sierra Mountains, approximately 9 miles north of Doyle, CA on the west side of US Route 395. Access to the ranch road is from US Route 395. Its elevation starts at 3800 feet and rises higher than 5,000 feet. The lower half is rolling high chaparral and the upper half is steep with forest land that was burned in the 2021 Dixie Fire. There are still plenty of live trees left. This ranch lies in Deer Hunting Zone X6b. Lassen National Forest is on the west boundary of this ranch, with a gate that allows access to the national forest. The 395 Ranch boasts incredible views for nearly 75 miles. The ground is primarily decomposed granite so mud never becomes a problem. Wind can be strong when weather systems approach. The campsites are very basic with no toilet facilities (at this time) but water is available for cooking and washing dishes. An outdoor enclosed shower is available as well. At this time (summer) the water is naturally warm from the pipe’s exposure to the sun and hot water from a flash heater will be available in the near future. Tents can be erected almost anywhere on the property, but campfires are strictly prohibited until the rainy/cold season. Water and an electric hookup is available next to the barn for RVs and travel trailers at an additional cost. Sewer service is not available. There is also an older but nice three-bedroom, one bath home that is also available for short term rentals. It is heated during the winter by two wood burning stoves and cooled comfortably during the summer with a swamp cooler. The rent for this house is based on the season, ranging from $169-$229 nightly plus extra fees for pets or more than three people. Visitors of the past have found hiking, looking for artifacts and rocks to be fun activities. It’s also been an amazing place for stargazing and using telescopes. Others simply enjoyed relaxing and enjoying the peace, quiet and views. High quality campfire wood is available for $12.00 a bundle.

Small space, but adequate. The bathrooms, however, we're on another level! The water pressure was to die for, and the facilities & amenaties (club house, common area, etc) were awesome as well. Will stay here again.

We greatly enjoyed staying at Village Camp Truckee. The staff was super friendly. The campground is beautiful; well maintained, grassy dog parks, fabulous playground and clubhouse. Very family friendly. Close to Truckee & Donner. Also, a delicious breakfast on Saturday, prepared with love.

The site was very clean and well maintained. It was also very spacious for an RV site. The host was very welcoming and helpful when it came to all of the activities that were happening over the weekend. Our site was towards the back of the park, so it was pretty quiet. We will definitely be planning another stay with a slightly larger group!

Very clean campground. Well kept and well organized. Sites were fairly close together but it remained quiet. The Friday night movie was great and an unexpected surprise. Then there was a free breakfast Saturday morning that was amazing. There was everything you could think of for breakfast!

We actually got upgraded to a better spot than the originally booked spot at 79. Management was nice enough to provide us the available option to move to a quieter spot on the outer boundary (#107). This was our 1st stay with Village Camp and we were pleasantly surprised by its convenience, comforts and amenities for a RV Park. Really appreciated the cleanliness of the bathrooms/showers, the comfortable club house accessible to all and of course the service by the front office--all great! Will definitely stay again for our van stays in Truckee.

2 night stopover for us and our RV on a Cali roadtrip, all the services for hook up. We arrived late after a long drive from Yosemite, seamless late check-in with info on email, very nice helpful folk running the site, good showers, nice clubhouse, all tidy, clean and spacious, topped up our propane ..cant ask for anything more! Hope to stay longer next time. We used this site location close to Truckee for a day out (hour drive) to Lake Tahoe and Sugar Pine Point state park which was a beauty, nice swim and time on the beach, relaxing on our last day ..it was also convenient for the long drive back early morning to Fremont to return RV before flying back to UK

Great location with a variety of activities nearby. Because we also stayed at the lodge we didn’t use the kitchen at the campground, but it was well-stocked. Bathrooms were a nice bonus. Wood chip base made for flat tent setup. Excellent hosts! Attending promptly to our family.

Really great campground with plenty of space to spread out. The whole area is fenced in, so our dog could roam freely without a leash. Beautiful surroundings. Well-stocked kitchen, clean bathrooms, everything you need to feel comfortable. The hosts were super helpful and attentive. We’ll definitely be back!

Sure! Here's a friendly and polished **Hipcamp review** you can use: --- We had a wonderful stay at Mark and Patricia’s place! The site was peaceful and well-kept, with all the amenities we needed. Mark was incredibly nice and thoughtful—his instructions were clear and made everything easy. Oregon Creek is just a drive away and was perfect for cooling off and relaxing. We had so much fun exploring the area, and the kids especially loved picking berries from the garden—that was definitely a highlight! We'd absolutely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great outdoor getaway. Thank you, Mark and Patricia
