Weekend Trip to Sleep Up High In A Redwood Tree-net

Sleeping up in the trees was so much fun! Louis was super friendly and helpful. The net felt very secure. Heads up for light sleepers - if anyone gets up in the night the whole net moves, so be prepared for that.

2 nights at Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views

This place is amazing!!! We stayed in the apartment and had an awesome view of the ocean although it’s mostly just clouds but it’s beautiful! Especially during sunset. The whole apartment was super clean and nice, and had an amazing kitchen with all of the essentials for cooking. She also gave us 4 eggs from the chickens on the farms, as well as a fire starting kit to make a bonfire right outside of the apartment. The outdoor area is super nice with a hot tub, amazing view, seating area and fire pit. Would definitely recommend this place!!!! Sana was also super helpful and responsive.

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views

This is such a spectacular gem! The view was incredible, the hosts were warm and friendly, and the whole tent setup was well thought-out and comfortable. Everything was clean, from the bathrooms to the sundeck, and the mattress was top-notch. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Redwood Paradise Camping

Redwood Paradise is a magical place! The host, her son and dog were amazing and incredibly kind and welcoming. The mix of serene redwoods, classical piano music played by Marshall (host’s son), and Peruvian coffee in the morning make the ambience for this retreat truly unique. We were at site 2 which had beautiful evening lighting coming in just after 6 PM. Make sure your tent faces the west :) We highly recommend Redwood Paradise!

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views

We absolutely adored our stay at Kings Mountain Fancy Camp. The property is a true oasis including incredible views/scenery and offers complete serenity. The tent itself is equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay and every single little detail has been considered to make this a true luxury glamping experience. The hosts, William & Sana, welcomed us like family and we hope to return again soon!

1 night at Hilltop Vineyard Dome Glamping

This was my first time dome camping and it was really fun! The sky was clear that night and you could see stars from the dome. The host was great, thank you!

Weekend Trip to The Ranch at Cross Road

Clear signage and communication. Plenty of space and great amenities of having a bathroom and picnic table

Weekend Trip to Slide Ranch Campsites

We had a great time. The campgrounds were clean and the dome is nice. Check out the tide pools at low tide. There are plenty of critters and anemones!

Weekend Trip to Redwood Paradise Camping

The location and hospitality were amazing. Hot tub at night, coffee put out for guests in the morning, and a very nice host. And beautiful setting in the redwoods.

Weekend Trip to Felton Open Space Camp Sites

Great location. Bathroom access nice. 12 minute walk down the road to great hiking park. Keep your food guarded so any dogs around don’t get a snack. With advanced planning I would sign up for a wine tasting.

Weekend Trip to Hilltop Vineyard Dome Glamping

Easy to find, lots of space, chill atmosphere. I added a guest on last minute also and it was no problem. Would definitely stay here again! Good spot for dogs as well.

Weekend Trip to Amaya Creek Redwood Campground

Very nice set up, multiple sites. All the sites are in a valley so you do hear everything. But it’s all pines and redwood trees all around. The road to the sites is steep and narrow but ok.

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views

We love our stay and the host was friendly. To reach this tent it was bit of walk but just treat is like short hike. the tent was clean and cozy. it was so private as it is not closed to other tent. if you are lucky you can see the ocean (when it is no foggy) and sunset was beautiful. Will definitely visit again.

Weekend Trip to Felton Open Space Camp Sites

We really enjoyed camping on John’s site. We had a little glitch in the beginning, but John made sure to straighten things out and came by several times to make sure we were happy. The site is beautiful and just a hop, skip and a jump from great hiking. Also, very close to downtown Felton, which was convenient . The other campers were extremely considerate, and after dark, it was absolutely quiet. To be honest, this is a better campsite for people with self sustaining camping vehicles rather than tent camping. If you tent camp be sure to bring a table for food prep/eating and lots of water. The bathroom provided was very clean and well stocked, but quite a distance from where we camped. .That said, I will take a clean plumbed bathroom, a distance away over a stinky porta potty nearby any day of the week. I definitely want to come back.

Weekend Trip to Felton Open Space Camp Sites

I had a great stay at this campsite! The location is ideal—just a short drive or even walk to town, which made it super convenient for grabbing supplies, enjoying local restaurants, or just exploring the area. The campsite itself was clean, quiet, and well-maintained. What really stood out, though, was the host. They were incredibly communicative from the moment I booked—quick to respond, helpful and genuinely welcoming. It made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, no-frills stay close to the town of Felton with a host who cares about your experience.

3 nights at Felton Open Space Camp Sites

This is a wonderful place - quiet and shady ( and level.) The hosts are friendly and gracious, and the wines are very good with afternoon tastings. Very good location - walking distance to Felton (first 1/5 of a mile is on the road, no sidewalk but not too busy) with a few restaurants that we enjoyed. About a 15 minute drive to downtown Santa Cruz - and the beach. Highly recommend this place!

Weekend Trip to May's Luxury Farmstays

What a wonderful experience!!! The view was incredible, especially for sunrise- would recommend waking up early to see it. The Yurt and site in general was so cozy- it was a comfortable temperature inside the yurt, there was a great picnic table and patio table and chairs to chill at outside. The grill / stove with the cast iron provided a standout cooking experience that really made us feel like we were glamping. The yurt had basically anything you could imagine for cooking, so no need to bring knives, cutting boards, pots, pans, spatulas, etc. you just have to search the drawers to find what you're looking for! 3 things to note about staying here- it's right off the main highway and motorcyclists seem to love driving around at all hours of the night, so would recommend earplugs if you're a light sleeper. We also forgot to bring bugspray and there are mosquitos around, so while they had a mosquito trapper, would highly recommend bringing some bug spray. Luckily they weren't terrible, but were worst in the morning for us. Also, the hose at our site didn't work, so we didn't use the tub because we couldn't figure out how to turn the water from the hose on. There was a bathroom with a good shower, so we were totally fine not using the tub. They also had a well stocked bar & ice machine that was very thoughtful, though we didn't end up using it. There was also a trail on the grounds to get to the main road, which was perfect for hiking straight from the site, no driving needed!!

Weekend Trip to Slide Ranch Campsites

beautiful views, quick walk down to the tide pools, and the dome is helpful for food storage

Weekend Trip to The Ranch at Cross Road

We occupied two sites. Great place to crash after a long drive. Super pretty and amazing sunset.

The Olive Farm

2 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Novato, CA

Excellent Group Site! We only host one group at a time so you can be with your family and friends in a large, flat and private space. We listed the site for up to 12 campers but feel free to reach out if your group is bigger. Please check out the newest addition of our cabin bunkhouse. Take a look at the pictures - you can add it to your stay as an extra when you book! The land was originally purchased in the 1980's. Since then, it has been used by four generations of the family as a place to gather, relax, camp and even celebrate. I had my wedding on the property in 2010. For a few years we held an annual music festival with the very inventive name of Samapalooza. Up to 400 people would attend the day filled with live music, food and drinks. You will still find the stage and bar we built as an outdoor kitchen and dining area. Around 2008, my father and I planted our first olive trees. Many have been planted since which has gifted the land the timeless sense of purpose it deserves. My father dedicated his last years to tending the young trees and now I have taken the mantle to carry the farm forward. 'The Property', as it is known amongst family and friends has always been a place to camp. I have sat around the same fire ring for decades, rain or shine. I hope that fellow hipcampers can find the joy that my family and I have experienced here. This is a very private camp on a small olive farm. Geographically close to highways and the town of Novato, Sonoma and Napa wine country, this camp feels remote and secluded. Only one camp on the property to keep it private and special. You basically have your run of the land. We have just updated the land and made some nice improvements. Located on ten acres, you will drive past a small olive grove before reaching the spacious and open campground. Just up the hill from the camp is a private pond where you can fish, take out a small boat or just sit and watch the birds. It can be great swimming on hot summer days. This spot has been used by the family for decades and is now open to share with fellow nature lovers. Just a note: While the majority of the time you can expect complete privacy, this is a working olive farm. From time to time you may run into me (Sam) or someone else associated with the land. We will always do our best to respect your space.

Epic Views at Lago Lomita Vineyards

2 sites · Lodging44 acres · Los Gatos, CA

Our yurt and treehouse are located on Lago Lomita Vineyards with a view of the entire Monterey Bay. We've been hosting guests since 2015 and are looking forward to meeting you! Both our treehouse and yurt listings are unique experiences. They both are adjacent to the Tierra Madre Vineyard Block and have awesome views of the entire Monterey Bay/Pacific Ocean. We are located on 44 acres high atop the Santa Cruz Mountains but close to all the major beaches and Silicon Valley. Please be aware this is camping in nature, along with squirrels, spiders, falling leaves, etc. and nature is not always for everyone. There is a 45ft. ladder to climb to get into the treehouse. The view at sunset is spectacular. Featured on the first page of top Glamping destinations in California, in National Geographic's 50 States, 500 campgrounds. Both sites include a trunk of goodies: Complimentary trunk of goodies that is filled with muffins, mugs, creamer, sugar, coffee, croissants, cards, champagne & wine glasses & wine opener! We acquired the property in 1991, shortly after the Lexington Fire (1985) and Loma Prieta earthquake (1989). At that time, the entire property has degenerated into disrepair, and all the vineyards had been overwhelmed by the wilderness. In 2011, we started the herculean effort of clearing away the wilderness, resurrecting all the vineyards and renovating our home. In 2014, we started replanting the vineyards, and opened our tree house to visitors in 2015. Just like us, I think you will fall in love with this property, and enjoy every minute of your time here. We look forward to your stay. Robin and Mark

The original farmhouse dates back to the late 19th century and survived the great 1906 earthquake. Today, the 7-acre farm is being restored to sustainably support fruit orchards, cottage flower and kitchen gardens, honey bees, a boisterous flock of chickens, and naughty shetland sheep. Our self-serve farmstand attached to our barn has seasonal flowers, organic eggs, heirloom fruit, and local goods from the farm.
