1 night at The Swimming Hole On Red Cap Creek

Clear sky with stars, beautiful creek for a swim, & Wayne was awesome. The drive up & down the hill is scenic and not a problem if you go slowly. Great visit!

2 nights at The Swimming Hole On Red Cap Creek

Away from the noise of, well anything but animals and flowing water! So refreshing.

1 night at Camp Miranda

Very Peaceful. Easy access. Within a small residential community.

Weekend Trip to The Fairy Forest

This was a great place to camp. The tent was set up very nice. The bed is super comfortable. I would definitely recommend to anyone look for a great little getaway!

Weekend Trip to Klamath’s Best Kept Secret

Great location right next to the Klamath River and very close to the heart of the Redwoods. Our neighbors at the campground were all very nice and the location had everything we needed. If you plan to camp in a tent, bring long underwear. It gets cold at night (even in June). We had a great time very relaxing.

Weekend Trip to Wendy & John Farm

A beautiful, quiet spot. Hosts were available for any questions and directions very clear. Would definitely stay here again on our way up or down the state.

3 nights at Wendy & John Farm

Wendy and John, are wonderful hosts. The soup, baguettes 🥖 and cobbler with heavy cream on arrival was scrumptious. We had originally planned on a 3 night stay but we had so much we wanted to squeeze in for our vacation. We plan on returning in August. Our pups loved the open field, the beach is only a mile away and leash free!

Weekend Trip to Camp Miranda

We were traveling up the PCH for about a week and a half and the bathrooms at this camp were the nicest by far and genuinely shaped the rest of our trip to be a good one.. Really pretty land and everyone in town was amazingly kind! I recommend!!!

1 night at Klamath’s Best Kept Secret

Nice & green. Quiet, off by me self. Wonderful, clean bathrooms!

1 night at Camp Miranda

Great spot. Quiet location in the redwoods. And, one of the nicest and coolest bathrooms I’ve seen in a camping spot.

Weekend Trip to Camp Miranda

This was such a charming campground! The bathrooms and showers were a huge bonus. Prime location and amazing hosts. We will defiantly be back!

Weekend Trip to Wendy & John Farm

Everything the stay was fantastic, campfires while looking at the stars was amazing

Weekend Trip to Camp Miranda

It made our redwood experience off the chart! Clean and cute bathrooms with hot showers. Redwoods on the property and a beautiful orchard view too. Walking distance to the adorable small town of Miranda with a coffee shop, dinner spot or small market including fresh fruit and veg. The host was friendly and responsive. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Radio Ranch Camp

At this location we slept in a tent with a foam mattress setup the same as your bedroom. The accommodations could not have replicated a hotel room any better. You could tell that the hosts put a lot of planning into detail They even put a packet containing toiletries and bug repellent wrist bands. Showering outside was fun and did not lack hot water. The "kitchen" we did not use but checked it out and found it to be well stocked. The site was clean and I would not hesitate to stay there again.

2 nights at Wendy & John Farm

My sister found this property and I am glad she did. We loved it! Very private location, but we still felt very safe and comfortable. There was only one other campsite being used while we were there and thus very quiet. The Cuban black bean soup was delicious as well as the fresh baked baguette in the morning. We had the Base Camp tent which was perfect for us. Would definitely camp there again.

2 nights at Wendy & John Farm

This was the best find ever! A real gem. Stayed at Wuss Camp 6/4/25-6/6/25. Stayed at Base Camp. It was great having a tent already setup and not having to setup our own. It was great that my dog was able to run around unleashed for once and play with the other campers dog that was there. he really enjoyed being off leash. It was way better then staying in a hotel/motel in Eureka. It was quite, peaceful, very secure and safe. There are woods to roam if you have the time. Super close to the beach. Wendy and John make the best food. The homemade chili soup was great the first night and the baguettes are yummy! I would definitely stay there again, highly recommend.

We loved the Bayside Cabin! We had everything we needed to be comfortable here. The lodging is very comfortable and the banana slugs were very cute lol. Will be returning!

2 nights at BIGFOOT FLAT on Willow Creek

Grounds were well kept and toilet were very clean. The creek was fun to sit by and soak your soul!

5 nights at Perch Riverview Glamping

I found the campground very user friendly. The bath and kitchen area was very nice, with plenty of space, plenty of hot water in the shower and sinks. Tent was spacious. River was clear and beautiful.

1 night at Klamath’s Best Kept Secret

The host was very welcoming and helpful as were nearby campers. Lovely place to stay.

Humboldt Hideaway

3 sites · Lodging, Tents10 acres · Blue Lake, CA

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.

There is a large deepwater pond with a rowboat (and frogs) orchard, stream, and many hiking trails my husband created and dirt roads winding through the property. 420 friendly! Enjoy the birds in the morning and frogs on the pond at night from your well equipped tent with queen mattress and comfy comforters, sitting space, and wood counter for food prep.

We are 5 miles up a private dirt road ( 2 wheel drive is ok but caution to lower clearance vehicles) You will be deep in the relaxing forest. The 16 foot bell tent is quite large and can accommodate 2 more travelers. However they would need to provide sleeping bags and mats. Children under 10 not recommended The Chimes tent is slightly smaller 13 foot bell tent set on a platform 6 feet off the ground-- literally in the trees! We provide one citronella candle.

Surrounded by towering trees in the heart of Redwood National Forest and just a few minutes from the Pacific Ocean, this is a true hidden gem on California’s North Coast. We offer a rustic, old-fashioned camping experience. It’s a mix of open field and scattered trees, with both RVs and tent campers on site. Neighbors will be nearby, but the vibe is quiet and relaxed—especially in the off-season, when you might have the place nearly to yourself. The Klamath River is just over the levee—a short walk from your site—with great access for fishing, swimming, or simply relaxing by the water. The river is world-famous for salmon and steelhead fishing (license required). August and September are peak fishing months, so expect a few early morning engines from folks heading out. We’re only 4 miles off Highway 101, far enough to enjoy peace and quiet without traffic noise. Wildlife is part of the experience here, so please stash your food at night to keep critters out of camp. Outdoor lovers will find plenty to explore nearby—hiking and biking trails, the Trees of Mystery, Jet Boat Tours, and, of course, miles of redwood forest to get lost in.

Wendy & John Farm

My aunt and uncle bought the property in 1947 from its first European settler, Paolo Gabrielli, who immigrated in early 1914 from northern Italy with slips of his grapevine in the lining of his coat. (The grapevine still grows over the back deck.) What can you expect? Quiet, beauty, birdsong, ocean roar, widely spaced campsites (only 5 on the 5 acres set aside for camping). Free firewood, local tips on travel and where to hike or what to visit. Or total solitude. Bring your (most non-cattle-chasing breeds) dogs if you wish (males must be neutered). Starlink internet. Walk to the beach of our wild ocean along a no-shoulder country road. We have no visible neighbors, no ambient light or sound. The air is clean and clear and the water is potable from an artesian spring on the property. No electricity at the sites and no generators allowed. (Charge your electronics at the farmhouse.) We offer homemade soup, cobbler, fresh bread, morning coffee as extras; you can order with the booking. The Victorian village of Ferndale is three miles east, as is a beautifully maintained 110-acre town wilderness with hiking trails called Russ Park. A 150-year-old cemetery slopes down a hillside & is filled with 19th century charm and history. Shops and restaurants welcome visitors. There are several bars/a wine bar/and a historic saloon that's as old boy as it was in 1890. A music venue in a restored 19th century church has amazing acoustics and attracts international talent as a top-notch venue (sessions are filmed for PBS) midway between Portland and San Francisco. So, it's a mix of town and country, village and farm, wilderness and bewilderedness. Safe, safe, safe, meaning: you can leave your belongings in your site and when you come back... they're still there :) We welcome the world.

The Redwoods Bend Retreat is a place to get away from it all.

We have a 5 acre meadow, and orchard with 50 trees, peaches pears, apples, cherries, plums, pluots, apricots and grapes. We are right on the Klamath river. It's a great place to come and recharge your internal batteries. There is no cellphone service and none of our sites have internet service. Our Main House was built in 1952 and retains the flavor of the 50’s. It houses a kitchen, dining hall, a living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom with a bathtub and shower. Our log-built Lodge overlooks the Klamath River with 3 bedrooms, a full kitchen, bathroom and wrap-around covered porch. Our Pumpkin and Blue Cottages. They are close to the double Yellow Shower house and toilets, and they have hot and cold running water, a propane cooktop, and a wood stove for heat. We do NOT have refrigeration, and our solar batteries or generator provides us lights at night. Campers who use our Cottages may use their own sleeping bags, but we have beds with mattresses and pillows and clean bedding. We also have an Upper Barn bedroom and half-bath rental. Our two-story Riverview Yurt appeals to folks who want a full kitchen, a private shower and flush toilet overlooking the Klamath river from our 50 x 50 foot upper deck. Luscious to sit outside and watch the river flow by during the day, and to let the water lull you to sleep at night. For families (up to 8), folks who like to fish, or old friends who just want a very special get-away. Each of our six campsites have a picnic table and a fire pit. Our Maple River, Grotto River and Pepperwood River sites overlook the gorgeous Klamath River. Our Morning Meadow, Orchard Meadow, and Deer Meadow sites are close to our 5 acre meadow where blacktail deer graze in the evenings. We have a Yellow double Shower House with two separate sides, each with a toilet, sink and shower and on demand hot water, so folks don't have to wait. There's also a new Camp Shower at the corner of the orchard for our campers, along with two outhouses for camper use, one at the bottom of the road down to the meadow, and another in the woods just past Deer Meadow Camp. We see lots of wildlife; silver foxes, a bald eagle and a family of river otters downstream, vultures, blue heron, occasionally an osprey will fly overhead clutching a freshly caught salmon and call to each other to brag about it! There are rare sightings of timid black bears who run from humans, but sometimes can be seen grazing in the meadow with the black-tail deer. We're surrounded by old logging trails made by the lumber companies 80 years ago when they clear cut the old growth redwood on our side of the mountain, and now it's completely reforested with 200 ft tall Doug Fir, Madrone, Cedar, Oak, other pine species and Pepper wood trees, and we have written permission from the Green Diamond company to allow guest to hike on their adjacent properties.
