1 night at Delta Meadows River Camp

This is such a cool secret spot! Dino was awesome! He met us as we arrived, let us get settled and then gave us a quick walking tour of Locke, which has such an interesting and colorful history, we had no idea! Thanks Dino as we 100% would have missed that if not for you! There’s a great bar nearby, plus a couple restaurants if you don’t want to cook. There are some great paths for walking your dog (and lots of little bunnies hopping around) and you can be at the water’s edge of the Delta within minutes. You gotta check out Dino’s vintage campers, soooo cool. Close to Sacramento but feels so far away! Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Golden Briar Camp

Best hipcamp we have ever been to! The eastern gated site is very private and the trees provide good shade. Having three picnic tables was awesome for our group of 7 to spread out cooking and eating. We used the hot tub every night and grilled one night as well. The cherry on top is that there is a shower. Would recommend to a friend.

Weekend Trip to Golden Briar Camp

My boyfriend and I had such a sweet time at the Creek Site! Perfect amount of space for two, and we loved being lulled to sleep by the sounds of the creek and watching the stars! Having a flush toilet and shower available were major pluses, though keep in mind it’s a short uphill walk so if you have mobility issues this might not be the site for you. Walking around the property at sunset was amazing. Perfect distance to recreation sites in Auburn, Grass Valley, etc. Our only complaint was the 2nd night, a neighbor must have been moving some cows for transport and there was distressed mooing going on all night — but this isn’t Terry’s fault! We hope to be back again soon!

The camp site was exactly as described. Easy to find and lots of great views.

We loved the creek site! Everything was as described, loved the fire pit, hot tub, shower and fresh towels. Terry was very kind and gave us everything we needed to have a great stay.

Terry is the best host I’ve had on Hipcamp. He went out of his way to give us a great experience, and he was accommodating to all of our requests and questions. We were very happy with the campground as well.

Beautiful property with great views. If you want privacy and seclusion this is the one! Road in can get pretty bumpy with a dirt road for the last 10-15 minutes to the property so just be prepared, but we had no issue with FWD.

Weekend Trip to Golden Briar Camp

We loved our spot in the gated camp site! We brought our adventurous doggo and he had a great time running around, and it was stress free for me because I knew he was in a safe enclosure. The entire property was absolutely beautiful, with plenty of trails for walking and even a pond with fish. We used the barbecue every meal and had a great time going for a dip in the hot tub. Terry was super kind and responsive. We’ll definitely be coming here again!

1 night at King Madrone

Helpful host and safe place to overnight in my truck. Thank you!

1 night at King Madrone

My husband and I car camped on this property and found it to be lovely. It was a 4:00 check in which left a short amount of time to set up before dark with “winter hours”. It would have been nice to enjoy the set up and the daytime hours a bit more, but the morning sun was delightful. I would highly recommend connecting with the host for the directions to help navigate the way on the property as it was a bit more challenging to find “where” to be on the property. All was good and we appreciated the communication Ben had given. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful property! Terry goes above and beyond to ensure that your stay is flawless. The attention to detail does not go unnoticed. Creek flowing through with a little waterfall, deer, turkeys, a fox, and owls at night. The proximity to Nevada City and Auburn made it an ideal location for us (about 20mins to both) Don’t forget to say hi to Gordon, the playful and rambunctious Basset Hound. He’s definitely one of the main attractions!

My friends and I loved the site, views, and location. Elly was a great host and made getting there easy! We will be back
