We’re just 15 minutes from Willow Creek, 1 hour from Highway 101, and 2.5 hours from I-5. Our one-of-a-kind, 100% off-grid luxury campsites offer total privacy and views you won’t find anywhere else.
Each site is nestled near a creek, so you can fall asleep to the sound of flowing water. Explore 30 stunning acres, including hikes to two waterfalls. Sweeping views of Ironside Mountain create a breathtaking backdrop for weddings, events, and photoshoots—ask us about whole-property rentals.
Your stay includes shared access to modern off-grid showers and restrooms (featuring our very popular clawfoot tub), an outdoor kitchen with BBQs, a wood-fired pizza oven, and beautiful common spaces. Free Wi-Fi is available, making Radio Ranch a great option for guests who want to connect nature without disconnecting completely from the digital world.
Check-in is simple and contactless. We host only 2–10 guests on the property at a time, ensuring a peaceful, uncrowded experience that feels like you have the place to yourself. Availability is limited, so don’t wait to book.
Treat yourself to a stay at Radio Ranch—the perfect place to truly get away, while still having it all. Relax, recharge, and reconnect.

Alpen Cellars is a family venture in which each of us take part in the long painstaking process of wine production. From pruning to harvest, crush to fermentation and bottling, we strive for fine wine and a connection to our customers.

Tucked away on 80 private acres, this authentic off-grid cabin sits beside Hayfork Creek, surrounded by old apple orchards, spring-fed meadows, swimming holes, and some of the most untouched wilderness in Northern California.
🔥 Off-Grid Living (Important to Read)

- Authentic wood cabin with a beautiful loft
- Stone hearth fireplace
- Hand-crafted mortise-and-tenon banister and railing
- Remodeled bathroom with custom tile
- Classic clawfoot soaking tub
- Chinkapin oak countertop
- Unique electrified wood sink
- Cozy, soulful, and unlike anything mass-produced
The cabin sits beyond a bridge and opens into a magnificent 20-acre meadow, giving a sense of arrival that feels almost cinematic.

- Old apple orchard
- Natural meadow with spring ponds
- ¼ mile of private Hayfork Creek frontage

It was great. Been coming for a good 3 years now. I appreciate all the improvements they have made. The only uncomfortable part was I booked online. We got a message asking when we were showing up. If we wanted wood...directions ... A lot of good information. We responded immediately said we would be there at midnight. We rolled in at midnight. Getting ready to settle in...some random dude shows up lights blazing and questions us about being there. Mind you there is no service. I didn't get screen shots. I have never had a problem here before. After a while the man finally acknowledges he had correspondence from me. But he definitely gave the feelings like we were trying to pull a fast one. Idk. It wasn't the most comfortable welcome. Especially where we wrote that we were coming at midnight 4 hours prior. We also wanted to buy wood. We were looking forward to having fire that morning. But the wood didn't come until the next night. I mentioned when the gentleman came questioning us that we wanted wood and asked about it in the message. We were bummed we didn't get wood until the next evening kinda late. And it was a bit of a chilly afternoon. So bring a little wood if you don't want to wait. Take screen shots of everything. I don't think they update the system on their end too regularly.

I’ve loved this place even before it was a hipcanp. Now I’m even more pleased with my experience. They have built up the hostprings site with an even larger soaking tub. The campsites are great and the water is hot and refreshing! I’ll definitely be coming back!

As the host says, it’s a magical place, it truly is the beauty is beyond your imagination, if you’re looking for a healing journey solo or a couple it’s the place to go. I spent 3 nights and 4 days at the ranch. Everything was just so easy from checking up until check out the communication and detail details were superb. And Jimmy, Jimmy is just amazing, he works on the ranch and drives around on a quad and brings you firewood and tells you amazing stories about the ranch. Oh, and if you happen to see Doug, he’s just a regular who loves to take care of the place and he does such a great job. Thank you Doug for taking care of the hot springs and all that you do the love that you pour into the hot springs shows and is felt! As the reviews say, the drive down is a little sketchy but once you get there, I promise it’s worth it. I look at the cars on the side of the road as a piece of art a story don’t let it scare you away. I will be coming back.

The roads out to Kosk creek are remote and sometimes sketchy (the road to McCloud is dicey with tree fall, rockfall, landslides) but the camp felt safe and the caretakers were nice. Beautiful spot and great that they've made this sacred place accessible and well maintained.

What an incredible stay! We had no problem arriving late in the evening (about 1:30am we came from Washington) and were able to use the hot springs at any time. This is definitely a new staple campground just be wary of the insane potholes leading up! No issue finding the place and facilities were so nice and clean :-)

Amazing place to visit!! It can look sketchy on the way down the 17 mile drive to the property but trust me it is worth it to push past the car junkyard 3 miles before your destination. Such a healing space. Already looking to visit again in May. Thank you Scott for the wonderful pre-Thanksgiving stay!!

We had a an amazing time camping here. It was myself, my husband, toddler and dog. We had a very spacious and private pull-through site for our pop up camper. Scott was very welcoming and helped us pick a spot and get settled. We had a really great time!

The camp host was really great about helping us find the camp and check us in despite a late arrival. Be warned - there's no cell service and it's a bit difficult to find in the dark. Check your email directions before you get too far out there! Creekside campsites were lovely and multiple hot spring pools gave a variety of soaking options. Very cool if you're willing to make the trek!
