Humboldt hideaway is a small intimate SHARED space with residents. The outdoor kitchen, deck with a view, and campfire ring are all connected to the main resident house. There are places of seclusion, but much of it is shared outdoor space. Humboldt Hideaway is a small off-the-grid LGBTQ+ queer land project in Northern California. It is set on 12 acres of hilly terrain in the mixed fir and oak woods of Humboldt County, a half-hour east of Arcata. Back in 2001, when it was established, it was undeveloped with nothing on it. It has since been built up with the scrappy efforts of amateur creative dreamers. It is a home and resource to extended LGBTQ+ communities by being a small-scale rural resource for learning and sharing useful rural living skills and being a destination for visits, artist and activist retreats, and host to small groups and events. Anyone is welcome at Humboldt Hideaway, but please understand that it is an intentional place committed to anti-oppression values. It is important that it remain a safer space for people identifying as queer and/or transgender, as well as a supportive space for women and people of color to freely be. Please make sure you do not anticipate any concerns/problems with this. NEARBY ATTRACTIONS: The property is conveniently located midway between the coast/redwoods and the Trinity River/Trinity Alps backpacking. It is a 45 minute drive to the coast of Trinidad, which has some of the most lovely coves and beaches and Patrick's Point State Park. It is a half hour drive to the coastal Ma-le'l dunes. And it is a half hour drive inland to swimming holes on the Trinity River. OFF-THE-GRID: The place is off-the-grid, no internet, only limited solar power, an on-demand propane water heater, and heated by woodstoves. Structures are a combination of natural building, salvaged, and new materials, with a mix of low-tech alternative technologies- all built with lots of love and help from friends. BOOKING A GROUP: There is potentially both cabin space and camping spots. The property can accommodate a group of up to 10 people. If you wish to book a group, please get in touch and we'll have you book all of the spaces- including some that are not currently listed, as they are in the shared lodge space. WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBILITY: There is a guest room in the shared lodge space if you want to have a wheelchair accessible room. The lodge has a ramp for accessible entrance. This room is not listed, but get in touch if you want to book it.

The Tower is hidden away on top of a hill in the Mattole Valley, a steep 500-foot switchback hike through Douglas firs on a trail built especially to reach it. It is set within its own hilltop meadow. The property is about 2 acres all in all, with the main house just down below at the bottom of the trail where I live. Enjoy total seclusion and privacy in this unusual Lost Coast hideaway. Accessible only by a STEEP 500-ft trail, you must be fairly fit to appreciate this remote spot. The climb will take you to a two-storey 'tower' built around two water tanks. The Mattole River is just over the road below. Enjoy the spectacular bird life. The remote Mattole Beach is just six miles away and makes for great hiking and beachcombing. **Important Check-in info** The Tower is a property that preferably needs a guide to show you up there initially. It is hidden, and you’ll benefit from a quick orientation up there. Check-in before dark, please, due to the trail. The upper storey of the Tower has a double sized bed,and comfy. Line-dried fresh-smelling bedding. This room also has a long sofa, Deco chairs, redwood window seats and a long cherrywood table. There is also a sink upstairs for easy teeth brushing etc. The Tower is on two floors, connected by an outside staircase. So *PLEASE NOTE* that as the bathroom is on the lower floor you will need to go down the *outside* stairs to the bathroom. Downstairs is the bathroom, shower and kitchen in one open plan room. The lower storey also houses water tanks, wrapped in canvas painted by a local artist. The spring water is excellent for drinking. Relax beneath the stars in the outdoor in-ground copper bath tub, with plenty of space for two and a small surrounding deck for glasses of wine, or take a hot shower outside, looking out onto the hills. Enjoy ceramicist Jim Danisch's sculptures punctuating the trail. In collaboration with Petrolia's craftspeople, the Tower was designed by my father, a writer and lover of art. For groceries, the local Petrolia store has most basics (including a gas pump) but its provisions are limited so please bring your own special groceries if you want more than basic. Please note there are ZERO bars and restaurants in Petrolia. Bear in mind that the Petrolia Store closes at 5pm, so be sure to bring groceries with you if you're arriving later than that, especially for that first night's dinner! To enable a real break and total relaxation, there is no WiFi! There is very limited cell service in Petrolia. There is a landline available for your private use in the Tower. Petrolia is off the beaten track and lies at the end of a very winding, rugged road with potholes a-plenty. Ordinary cars can make it, but if you are hiring a car you will be better off hiring an all wheel car that is not too low off the ground. Be prepared for a real rural retreat. The tower is right in the wilderness atop a hill, so be prepared to hear and see animals around. Please note that I have been hosting on another platform for many years with lots of happy guests. Please google The Lost Coast Tower to see those reviews, to get a sense of the place from a guest's perspective . Thank you!

What a wonderful spot to spend the night! Andrew and his wife were amazing hosts - very communicative and accommodating. Andrew suggested a fun swim stop for us on the way and then upon arrival allowed us to jump into a wine tasting with them. We had a fun place to park the camper van while our teen daughters enjoyed the gazebo. On top of it all, the wine was amazing!!

This was our first time using Hipcamp, which is surprising because we always look at the listings! We loved staying at this little slug palace! The area was clean, near town, super cute and we felt very comfortable and safe. The check in was straight forward. The toilet and outdoor shower were amazing! We felt like it was private even though it was on someone’s property. You’re tucked in the trees enough that you feel secluded from the other houses. 10/10 would recommend and stay here again! Thanks for the great stay!

We loved staying at Dark Fairy Farms! The view from our cabin was breathtaking. We had all the kitchen supplies we needed to whip up a little dinner, that we were then able to enjoy while gazing out over the most beautiful scenery. It was also nice to be within 30 minutes drive of so many hikes, so we were able to dive right in to exploring the area.

We only stayed one night at the cabin at the end of our trip to the area. Had we known how perfect is was in so many respects, we would have stayed the entire week! The cabin is small but perfect for overnight before heading to town or staying in for your meal. We only had a short time to discover what a hidden gem the little part of Arcata called Sunnybrae is. We can't wait to book for our entire week for next 4th of July annual trip up the coast.

Beautifully built glass cabin with fairy lights in the forest. This was literally my childhood dream come true. The outdoor kitchen was perfect. We had a wonderful time!

1 night at Briceland Vineyards Ranch

We loved the gazebo. It’s primitive, cozy, private, and wonderful. We love outdoor showering and were grateful for this one. Andrew was kind, flexible ,and welcoming. We felt it was a great experience and value. We wish we had the time to experience the wine tasting feature Andrew offers. I would have enjoyed it and seeing the wine tasting space. We were glad Andrew pointed out poison oak and steered us clear of its trouble. If you don’t mind a port-a-pot and have a sense of adventure, we highly recommend the experience.

3 nights at Bayside Cabin

The Bayside cabin was perfect for my anniversary getaway. The bed was comfortable and the cabin was warm and cozy with the indoor fireplace. I love an outdoor shower, especially when the water is piping warm too. We woke up each morning to the beautiful natural environment of the PNW and enjoyed a cup of coffee from the French press by the fireside. It was also great being so close to Arcata town center... We enjoyed the spa/sauna at Finnish country along with cool thrift/record stores and lots of great places to eat.

2 nights at The Bear Den

This was our first HipCamp stay and it did not disappoint. Our vacations are usually go...go...go, but we enjoyed the solitude and the experience so much that our two day stay was two days of relaxation. The cottage is beautifully built and well kept. Destiny's instruction prior to our arrival were easily understood and that just made the whole experience more enjoyable. We highly recommend The Bear Den in Garberville, CA.

2 nights at Lost Coast, Oceanview Retreat

Stacy‘s place was everything that I had hoped for and so much more. The location, design, vibe, and amenities made my trip peaceful, relaxing, enjoyable, and worry free. Stacy is very communicative and flexible as a host. I am looking to find dates for my next trip up there!

With pets

2 nights at Bayside Cabin

Wow! This place is perfect! Forested enough to know that you are peacefully camping in the woods with enough modern convenience to be happy, sanitary and spoiled. (Hot water outdoor shower, private flush toilet, hot water sink, cooking supplies, etc.), The cabin itself is GORGEOUS and beautifully designed. The uniqueness of every well thought out detail is wonderful. The banana slugs lend the perfect sense of humor as they become quite the little subjects for many quirky photographs. Thank you!!
