4. The 395 Ranch, Seclusion & Views!

47mi from Little Grass Valley · 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.

5. TURNER BEACH AT LAKE ALMANOR

36mi from Little Grass Valley · 1 site · Tent, RV · Westwood, CA

Turner Beach At Lake Almanor is a privately owned vacant lakefront lot. The property is wide enough to accommodate 3 RV's/camp trailers end to end, ensuring no blocked views of the lake. You will be camping along Lake Almanor's East Shore on your own private campground instead of "combat camping" in the popular public campgrounds nearby. Additionally, the property can accommodate numerous smaller vans and tents. We have 2 mooring buoys and a large dock. (Dock may no longer be in the water after September) There is a sani-hut potty which is maintained/cleaned weekly. The property is located between the lake and the highway, so there will be road noise. Some guests have been bothered by the traffic and some have not. We have 2 SUP boards, 3 kayaks, and a canoe as well as a 5-person pedal boat that can be borrowed while renting our beach. Doing so will be at your own risk and you are required to wear personal floatation devices (lifejackets). Lifejackets are not provided, so you will need to bring your own. We ask that you please respect our toys and take care not to damage them or lose any parts/pieces. ALL RENTERS MUST TAKE THEIR OWN TRASH WITH THEM WHEN THEY DEPART No Fireworks, No firearms, No drugs allowed. Dogs are allowed and we do have a 10 x 10 x 6 kennel onsite. Campers are responsible for minding their pet's safety, politeness, and picking up their poo-poo's. Marshmallow roasting/cooking fires must be kept small and are only allowed in the provided fire ring. There is some small firewood onsite, and if you need more you can purchase nearby at Almanor Landscape Supply or bring your own. The early mornings are tranquil, and the sunsets are STUNNING! We hope you enjoy your stay! **Please understand, if you private message us asking to pay us directly to avoid the HIPCAMP fees, the answer will be a resounding NO! This is the platform we have chosen for our beach rental and we are not willing to skirt around it. Thank you for your understanding. :) **Thank you everyone for a great 2025 season. The beach is closed for winter and will re-open May, 2026.......BUT.........You can book now for next year! THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!

Weekend Trip to The Land: An Off-grid Refuge

My second time here and I booked just one day before, knowing I needed a space I could have to myself, that offered rest and “being.” Rachel and I got to meet this time, and she helped me set up for an outdoor fire, and even helped with the new hot water heater for the shower. Truly so much love is put into the bus and surrounding areas. I plan to share this place with other solo travelers, because as a solo preferred traveler, this spot is safe and the host is incredibly helpful for anything!

Weekend Trip to Om Sweet Om Farm

Dustin and Om's land, farm, Glampgalore retreat was perfect for our 4 month old's first camping experience. The tent was so cozy, thoughtfully decorated and organized with string lights, a comfortable bed, dresser, side table, and cooking wares. Our dogs had a blast walking the beautiful trails all around and we had the best time feeding acorns to the goats and the cutest pigs you will ever meet. Being followed around by a gaggle of chickens, guinea hens, ducks, and one curious turkey made our trip all the more sweet. Dustin and Om are the best hosts we have ever had on Hipcamp and we will definitely be back in the spring!

The bus was super cool and beautifully made! We also really enjoyed the bath house. The stars were incredible too! The one thing I was not particularly pleased with was being woken up by the owners free-roaming barking dogs early in the mornings. Also, I would recommend bringing an extra lamp because it does get very dark and the provided lamps might not be enough light for everyone. Otherwise, the place was awesome! I would still recommend this spot for anyone looking to get away from the city.

I can’t say enough good things about this campsite. Privacy, space, views, cleanliness, a responsive and kind host…it really checks all the boxes. Our family can’t wait to book this spot again. The only downside might be the noise from the road, we are easy going and it didn’t phase us but if you’re someone who can’t handle a little road noise then this would probably bug you, to us it was well worth the incredible benefits the site provided. 10 out of 10 for sure!

Weekend Trip to Om Sweet Om Farm

Dustin and Om’s land is so incredibly beautiful and well loved, they were such outstandingly caring hosts, and the attention to detail + comfort made this such a wonderful trip. The camping tent is beautiful, very clean and comfortable and the sweetie guard dog Billy made us feel so safe and welcome especially since we came in late at night. He keeps the bears and mountain lions away and very politely asks for morning pets in return. Dustin and Om communicated quickly and kindly, and really went above and beyond to help me replace my tire when it blew out on the road nearby- even coming out to meet us and sending us to a trusted nearby garage after. Truly dream hosts who helped make a very special trip go smoothly after some big unexpected hiccups. They really thought of everything you could need to stay comfy, the bed was so good for us, and even the hand built compost toilet was so ingenious- well ventilated, comfortable, clean. Light cooking was easy with the provided kitchen utensils and butane stove, and the dining area outside the tent is soooo peaceful. The area with the tent is private amongst some gorgeous trees, with solar lights that made the place feel magical at night. The ceremony tent is also a very beautiful and special place. All the animals are so well cared for and sweet, it’s truly a family full of love and many vibrant personalities. This place is such a peaceful haven in an unpredictable world, and we are so grateful. Will definitely be back!

Lynne’s land is such a peaceful and welcoming place to camp. The property is well cared for. The views are gorgeous, and it’s quiet enough . Lynne was responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. If you’re looking for a spot that’s both serene and inviting, this is a wonderful choice. You can expect a safe, well-kept, and very relaxing experience here.

Lynne was a fantastic host! On night one we had a mishap with our air mattress and she met us at her shop to fill it up and even loaded us up with free fire wood! She is an amazing lady!as for the campsite it self it was gorgeous and very secluded. You can hear the traffic but I was able to tune it out. I’d say the only downside was all the rocks my pups had a hard time walking on them to get to the water being they are all over 10 it was rough, I just wish there was more dirt, but hey if that’s the only downside I’ll take it. This place was near perfect. The porta potty was spotless when we got there and the campsite was very well kept! The sunset was phenomenal and we even had a few thunderstorms in the distance and that was a great sight! And again Lynne was the best host I’ve ever had! 10 out of 10 would go again.

5 nights at TURNER BEACH AT LAKE ALMANOR

Lynne's spot on Lake Almanor was fantastic. We appreciated so much having our own campsite rather than being in a large, noisy campground with no privacy. On one side of the site is a house (with its own dock), but there are no windows overlooking the site. The other side of the site is just woods, and the beach on that side stretches along quite a ways with no houses or docks. Beach and in the water consists of medium size rocks - bring water shoes. The set up at the site was amazing: fire pit, very clean porta-potty (ladies, send your husbands out there even if you have a trailer!), paddle boards, canoe, paddle boat, kayak, picnic table, lounge chairs, float island, even a dog pen.). If you are bringing your own large boat or renting one, please note that starting around 2:00 the wind comes up and the lake gets very choppy until well into the evening (at least when we were there in mid-August). You will not want to tie your boat to the dock in those conditions (you can briefly tie-up to unload though). Use the mooring bouys off of the dock, and bring your own float to get out there and back if you are not comfortable with the boats at the site. There is a long hook at the site, very much needed to hook the buoy in rough chop. We unfortunately did not see the hook at first, and my husband spent a merry time hanging over the boat trying to catch the buoy in very rough chop.

This is a perfect getaway if you’re looking for solstice. The tent is very beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed and everything you need for simple living. There are lights inside and candles outside which was nice! There’s loads of very cute goats on property, and really friendly dogs that won’t bother you. The cold plunge was a nice touch, and had a gorgeous view. We went into the ceremony space, which is really well done and you can feel the love and energy they put into it- a very peaceful tent indeed. The bathroom was clean, and the composting toilet was not scary at all lol. I would recommend this and the host are extremely easy to talk to and friendly.
