Weekend Trip to Camp Watanda at Lake Vera

Camp Watanda is GREAT for kids! So many fun things for them to do. It was fun seeing all the kids running around having a blast. And even though we don’t have children, we enjoyed ourselves as well. The lake was full and we had a wonderful time swimming and paddling around. It’s just a few miles from downtown Nevada City, and we used Watanda as a jumping off point to do a bike ride from there. It was a very hot day, so we enjoyed coming back to camp and jumping in the lake.

3 nights at Lazy Bear Cabin

We had a wonderful stay at Jeff's cabin. Jeff was communicative and helpful. The cabin had all the basic necessities and worked well for my teenage daughter and myself. There was plenty of space to explore on the property, and the forest and creek areas were beautiful. If you travel during the summer months, be prepared for lots of mosquitoes. If you visit on a permissible burn day, I highly recommend using the fire pit for a campfire. It was a great way to end our trip. I suggest you bring your own extra toilet paper, towels, dish soap, and hand soap. Some of these items were provided, but it was nice to have extra since there are not any stores nearby. We look forward to visiting in the future.

3 nights at Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping

Ellie and Jack set a really high bar for our first time using Hipcamp. They were incredibly responsive to any of our questions and made the experience super smooth. We were in awe of the set up in and around the tent the whole time during our trip. The tent was super cozy and comfortable, the outdoor shower was amazing, the hot tub under the stars was memorable, and I could really keep going. Lots of stuff in the area to explore and after 3 days there is only feels like we scratched the surface. Looking forward to going back sometime soon!

1 night at Coppercreek Camp

Great place to camp with the family. The swimming hole, hot water showers and grill were all a huge bonus. The couple who run the camp are very sweet and clearly love the land. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Weekend Trip to Mill Creek Resort

We really enjoyed our stay at Mill Creek! The location was perfect for accessing the southern part of Lassen National Park - only a 10 to 15 minute drive away. The campground sites are spaced close together so you can hear all your neighbors, but the access to bathrooms and a dish-washing sink with running water was a plus. Also nice that the host had firewood and ice for sale. The camp was understandably busy for a holiday weekend, but we stayed the night after the holiday and almost had the place to ourselves. Would definitely recommend staying here, and we will have to check out the glamping sites for a future visit!

Weekend Trip to Sugarpine Slopes at Grouse Ridge

This is a great place to camp, with gorgeous hiking trails close by. The birdsong was amazing. There was a particular bird around 8 pm that made such beautiful sounds I'd never heard before. And plenty of firewood around so didn't have to buy.

1 night at All Corners Off Grid Homestead

We loved Samantha’s spot! The site is very private and the secluded property makes you feel like you’ve got the forest to yourself. Running water right there, plenty of fire wood around, and a short walk to a full-service bathroom! Don’t forget to say hi to the host and her sweet dogs. You won’t regret staying here!

1 night at Lake Concow Campground

This camp is beautiful and well maintained. I visited Lake Concow Campground at the tail end of the Memorial Day Holiday weekend. I was greeted by Tabitha, the caretaker, who explained amenities available exactly as indicated on the camp overview literature on the Hipcamp site. There’s a lot of people by the lake so I setup tent uphill instead. I didn’t mind it because it was remote and I had a gorgeous view of mountains, mature trees and lush vegetation. There’s no assigned camping spaces so I had the option of settling anywhere I chose except for some areas that were clearly marked for construction or growing specific plants. The out houses were clean, appear newly constructed and within walking distance from where you might decide to camp. There’s hot showers and also free firewood. I couldn’t have asked for better weather and accommodations. However, around 10 pm, there was group of folks by the lake that started playing guitar, sang together, and created other loud noises including turning on the generator. I hope that they’d eventually stop because the camp rules said quiet time is observed from 10:00 pm until 8:00 am. But they didn’t which led me to conclude that those folks must be illiterate. Around 10:30 pm, I messaged Aindrea, the camp host. Within 10 mins, her caretaker came and all illegitimate merry making ceased. I was surprised and relieved at how quickly Aindrea and her team responded and took action. I shall return.

Weekend Trip to Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF

We loved camping here! Kelley was amazing and always available to answer questions or give recommendations for nearby lakes etc. The campsite is beautiful, clean and quiet. Bathrooms are nice and clean, there’s even a hot shower! There were some mosquitoes but Kelley provided us with a thermacell which helped a lot. We hope to come again someday!

Weekend Trip to Starry Hot Tub/Cold Plunge Glamping

Ellie and Jack have a peaceful glade, and we were glad to stay with them. They were generous enough to pass on hammer so we could crack open some geodes in town!

Weekend Trip to Mill Creek Resort

Mill Creek is an amazing spot with a peaceful, safe vibe. The movie in the meadow was so sweet. Guests and staff are friendly and helpful. I'm looking forward to going back and getting a T-Shirt.

Weekend Trip to Mill Creek Resort

Cozy little campground in the woods by a beautiful creek. Short & beautiful drive to Lassen. Very friendly vibe. Bathrooms clean. Showers hot.

Weekend Trip to TerraSol

This is an absolutely gorgeous site. Our stay was incredible and the hosts are beyond friendly.

Weekend Trip to TURNER BEACH AT LAKE ALMANOR

We had a wonderful holiday week at Turner’s Beach. Having the place to ourselves was the absolute best! We were able to have our dogs off leash The site was well appointed, the portable potty was a much appreciated and nice touch considering it is a dry camping site. Would recommend and can’t wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Maple Creek Ranch

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 Genesee Camp

It is a beautiful and peaceful area. Secluded campsite, you do not have neighbors close by unless you bring them. Very thoughtful setup with fire pit, seating areas, shovel, fire extinguisher and water bucket to help put out the camp fire. Nice walk to beach creek area to cool off. Plenty of shade and beautiful wild life. We definitely plan to come back.

Weekend Trip to Coppercreek Camp

loved loved glamping here! really great for stargazing (bortle 2) and spending a peaceful weekend :)

Weekend Trip to Coppercreek Camp

We had an amazing time at Coppercreek Camp. The Little Grey Cabin was perfect for my family! The property was beautiful. Lots of big green trees and lots of shade! Endless fun for my daughter. Between the horses, mini horses, all the frogs in the pond and ESPECIALLY the rope course!! Such a cool activity. We were there 2/3 times each day. The cabin was spotless and cozy and the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen while camping!! I highly recommend Coppercreek!! We will definitely come back for more fun!

Weekend Trip to Coppercreek Camp

Loved it! Sutter and Taylor were super kind and helpful. We greatly appreciated the free access to ice, firewood when we ran out, hot showers, potable water and all at a really good daily rate. We walked to the nearby small creek for our dogs to play in, walked around their entire property to see the pond and horses and just enjoy the scenery, and played on their ropes course, too - so much harder than it looks! We were only a short 15-20 minute drive to Lake Almanor and hung out there one afternoon. Highly recommend supporting this campground!

Weekend Trip to 200-acre developing eco-preserv

Oracle Oak Grove

5 sites · Tents5 acres · Nevada City, CA

Welcome to Oracle Oak Grove Oracle Oak is located in the Oak Savannas, in Nisenan territory, in Nevada City California. Home of the Nisenan Rancheria Natives, the Deer Creek Watershed. Currently stewarding these lands are some very hand crafty & gardening witches. We are stewards of this land, graciously grateful to grow food such as corn, broomcorn, pumpkins, flowers, and watermelons under the sun. This land is located less than 20 mins to multiple different Yuba River access points. We are also located in the Armpit of Nevada county with 3 access ways 15 mins each way to Grass Valley, Nevada City or Penn Valley. The neighborhood of this area is also one of the more safer bike friendlier places, you can ride into town along the NID trails, or set up camp and head up the 20HWY less than 20 mins to enjoy Epic Mountain Biking Trails. Not only are we crafty, but also nature enthusiasts to feel free to reach out and ask about fun things to do here, if you are looking to stay busy exploring the nature. We also have a beautiful sunset hike that overlooks some beautiful views. Oracle Oak Grove has a wide variety of camping options. We have a camp grounds on the lower end of the property that currently hosts 4 different camp sites. the 3 May Pole zone, and 1 Faerie fields. There is one shared Bonfire zone that can be used for friends camping together during the spring and late fall months when we are not in fire season. We love hosting groups and birthday parties. Also individual campers as well. We have two yurts available if you are more into the Glamping experience or especially if camping in the winter. The Witches Hut and The Little Witch Hut! The Witches Hut which is larger and can fit a family of 3 or 4. This hut includes a patio, grill, and Private entrance. The Little Witch Hut is smaller and more suitable for a couple or a single person wanting some solo retreat time. This one has cooking amenities accessible in an outdoor kitchen just outside the yurt. This one also gets better access to the Starlink available on the property. This yurt has the compost toilet outside and is a less than minute walk to it. Both yurts have the ability to park fairly close to them and both are fully furnished. The Yurts are available for a higher expense than the camping of course. We are sorry to say that Hot tub season is now closed. We do have a wood-fired Cedar Hot tub, she is our Cauldron she is only available during winter and very early spring visits. I am sorry, but due to fire season and her being wood-fired she is not available outside hot tub season. If you are interested in the experience it requires advanced noticed as well as an extra charge for wood, cleaning, and tending. She is a labor of love, and such a unique experience. Enjoy the smell of cedar, chlorine free waters under the stars. Enjoy and hopefully you come and experience the Magic we have made Stewarding these acres. PLEASE come check in before DARK. We are in a very Rural Area and it can be difficult to see a night where to park and camp. We have pathways and lights to guide, but there is a DESIGNATED parking zone and a cart available to carry your stuff to your CAMPSITE. This is not a CAR Camping spot there is ONE car camping site and the rest you is a very short walk to your site. Thank you.

Jones Bar Farm

2 sites · RVs7 acres · Nevada City, CA

Jones Bar Farm is a quiet little seven acre hobby farm at the end of the paved section of Jones Bar Rd in Nevada City, CA. We have 4 alpacas and about a dozen chickens, who free-range all over the farm. The farm is perched near the edge of the South Yuba River canyon at about 2100 ft elevation. We are "above the fog, and below the snow (usually)." Summers are hot and dry here. Daytime temps in July and August are typically in the 90s, and night time temps are in the 70s. Spring and Fall are our favorite seasons. Here is a link to our personal weather station: https://ambientweather.net/dashboard/8b84c175d5842a7d91fe2ba6190ed314 Camping here is a semi-primitive experience, since there is no bathroom, and no garbage service. There is, however, potable water, and the campsites are easy to access and relatively flat. Past our property, the unpaved, and very rough, section of Jones Bar Rd continues down into the South Yuba River canyon for about 2 miles, to a lovely swimming hole. Bicycling and hiking are very popular activities in this area. The farm is about 6 miles from both Nevada City and Grass Valley. Both towns have lively and interesting down-towns with good shopping and restaurants.

Rock Creek Sanctuary

We are in the beginning phase of developing an energy independent sanctuary where the biomass and waste are converted to fuels within a theme of well being and acceptance. A ceremonial sweat lodge, Tipi and gardens are in process as well as multiple cabins and campsites. Stay and play, learn and share. Our theme is solutions and community. We have a common area where guests may share food, evening conversations around the fire and music. For us it is not just about somewhere to lay your head, it is also somewhere to use it and share ideas and inspirations for the well being of self, society and environment. We are located 45 minutes to skiing at lake Tahoe and 5 minutes to Nevada City. Situated on 25 acres it feels like the forest but is a short 5-10 minute drive to amenities in the eclectic towns of Grass valley and Nevada City where there are festivals, night life and dining options. There is also an abundance of hiking, biking, lakes and rivers. Rock Creek is 3 minutes down the road and the Yuba river is 15. In full disclosure, we are getting these listings up to begin this new journey and get a sense of what people are looking for while at the same time, finishing and improving on sites. Things are still a little rough around the edges and so we welcome inputs and feedback.

Camp Watanda at Lake Vera

9 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Nevada City, CA

FYI: We are a very small lake and experience seasonal lows towards the end of the summer. I cannot predict what the lake condition will be in August. Camp Watanda is a retired resident camp that we have converted to a vacation rental. We have 10 acres of wooded property, with the 4 camping kiosks close to the waterfront and 1 RV site on the waterfront. The camping kiosk all have 8-10 mattresses, grilling table, picnic table, cooler, smoke alarms, rake, broom and fire extinguishers. We are pet friendly with 1 dog per kiosk. Tents can be pitched on the elevated decks. Our waterfront has a large fire ring, 2-covered pergolas, canoes, kayaks, life jackets and charcoal grill. Lots of fish in the lake, since this is a private lake, no license is required. There is also a bathhouse (very primitive and in serious need of remodel) close by with 3 showers, 3 toilets and 3 sinks. Up by the lodge is a cell phone charging station and Wi-Fi, while we do have Wi-Fi, it is not guaranteed, we are in the mountains with inconsistent connection. Lodge is not available to campers as this is rented separately. No dispersed camping. RV CAMPING: Because of the steep driveway and blind curve, we limit the vehicle length to 25 overall length. Our driveway is more suitable for RV's and Camper Vans and not Travel Trailers being towed. If you rent a kiosk, all campers must be on the same kiosk unless you rent a second kiosk. If you have a camping van and plan on using the van and the kiosk, then that is a second site. You cannot tailgate on a reservation just because the party only has 2 people on the kiosk, and you have 2 in the Van to make 4 people. These are tents sites on a Kiosk, there is parking for cars or trucks at the kiosk, not suitable for RV or Travel Trailers. Those vehicles will have to park at the waterfront parking lot.

Private Yurts - Nevada City

2 sites · Lodging10 acres · Nevada City, CA

This magical and private Yurt in the woods are just 2 miles from Nevada City Come experience the Beauty of the Sierra Foothills and the Yuba River in our Yurts tucked into the forest just 2 miles from downtown Nevada City. With a natural creek right outside your door and hiking trails right off the deck, this serene and beautiful yurt retreat awaits you. Nevada City is renowned for its excellent food, shopping, nightlife and farmer’s market. A leisurely walk into town takes 45 mins, bike in 15 or drive in 5. Grass Valley is 10 minutes away as well and has more food, shopping, and entertainment for you. Access to the Yuba River is as close as 20 mins to Edwards Crossing and 20 mins to Hoyts Crossing on Highway 49. We absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax. Each yurt has a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm. Each yurt has a kitchen that is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc. Each yurt has a Queen bed with a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night. Each yurt has its own dedicated wood-fired hot tub. It requires a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot. Things you might like to bring: headlamps, robe, flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes. Water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you. It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually. We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious. The hot tub: it’s wood fired. This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. It’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there! This tub may have leaves in it (they fall from above) and cloudy water. The water should NOT smell, the cloudiness is a part of the cedar tubs charm- ash from the fire and particulate from the cedar mix together. We treat it between guests with natural products that maintain the wood (you can’t use chlorine in these tubs). We clean it regularly. Shower before using it to wash off any oils and sweat in your body please! The outdoor shower is lovely :) Fireplace: We will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental. If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system- It takes a lot of time and resources to keep wood stocked for the property. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log with you. Please leave the lighter behind for the next guest. Sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights, It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. This is a real treat during our hot summers. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season. We live in the woods, there are bugs and wild animals on/or near the property. This is part of the country charm and should be expected. Please don't leave food outside. Land acknowledgment: We acknowledge that our property is located on unceeded land. It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss. We donate 10% of AIRBB proceeds between CHIRP which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe. https://chirpca .org/ And the Bear Yuba Land Trust which helps protect the fragile Yuba watershed. https:// www.bylt .org/is Thank you

Summer is the most popular time for camping and outdoor recreation, especially water related activities, around Quincy. The popular High Sierra Music Festival is held in Quincy in July while the Plumas-Sierra County Fair is held in August. Spring and fall also offer ideal weather to be outside, while leaf peeping is a popular fall activity. Fishing is usually permitted in area lakes year-round and in the streams from April to November. Most campgrounds are open seasonally.
