Camp ikigai is a 72 acre farm/ranch stay near Sequoia-Kings (SEKI) Canyon Nat'l Parks. Rescued/EOL horses, sheep, chickens, and ducks freely roam the property. The property has a communal clubhouse with a fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, firepit, hot/cold showers, compost and pit toilets, and an above ground swimming pool. Our business is committed to inclusivity and respect for people from all backgrounds and a safe inclusive space for solo female travelers.
30 minutes from park entrance, 20 min from nearby lakes, 50 minutes from Fresno. 3 hours from SF, 3.5 from LA. We have running hot/cold water for our outdoor shower but NO flushable toilets. We have pit and compost toilets filled with cedar shavings for now!
Our priorities:
1. Wildfire prevention
2. Community building
3. Environmentalism and Sustainability
If you're coming July-Mid August, please know it is HOT (95 average/75 night) and wildfires are a consistent threat. With that, wildfire prevention is a high priority. We have a lot of projects we have started and could use all the help we can get!
Some of those are:
- invasive species management
- tiny home building
- gardening/greenhouse building
- event space building
- raising livestock
- medicinal plant growing + onsite apothecary (Come volunteer build the food forest and medicinal garden)
Come book a cabin, park a bus or RV, bring a tent, bring your cat/dog/turtle/horse etc.

3 nights at "paradise is within you"
This place is special! It is glamping at its finest. The setting by the river is beautiful, the outdoor kitchen makes cooking fun and easy and the yurts v comfortable. There is so much to do on this property from exploring the river and swimming holes to reading and napping in one of the many nooks by the river. Just spectacular. Kenneth has really made this a retreat.

Weekend Trip to "paradise is within you"
We spent two nights at this retreat, and it truly felt like discovering a hidden paradise. At first, we weren’t even sure we’d find it, as it’s tucked away in a quiet mountain pass – but once we arrived, that sense of seclusion became one of the best things about the stay.
Our tent was spacious and comfortable, and the whole area radiated peace and calm. After a long day of hiking, nothing compared to stepping into the warm sauna and then plunging into the crisp, refreshing mountain river. In the evenings, we sat under the dazzling night sky, listening to the gentle murmur of the water as it carried us into sleep.
The place had everything we could have asked for: clean toilets and showers, a small outdoor gym, and a well-equipped kitchen. Mornings came with a few curious wasps buzzing around our breakfast, but they never stung – just a small reminder that in nature, we share the space with its little inhabitants. The mattress in our tent was also a little sunken in the middle, creating a slight dip, but despite that we still slept deeply and comfortably.
What really tied it all together was Kenneth, our kind host, who made sure every detail was taken care of and that everyone felt welcome. Thanks to him, and to the setting itself, this retreat felt less like a stay and more like a little escape into another world.
