3 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Nevada City, Nevada
Bright Bear Camp is a private two-acre property bordering Tahoe National Forest. We are located at 4300' elevation down a mostly dirt road along the beautiful Bear River and Bear Valley. This is a very peaceful spot among the trees with a small meadow and creek on the property.
As our name suggests, bears are occasionally in the area so keep an eye out. You may also see the spotted owls that live nearby - listen closely for their calls (https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Spotted_Owl/overview).
There is much to explore in the area and more with only a short drive to the South Yuba River, Emerald Pools, Lake Spaulding, Donner Pass, Donner Lake, and Truckee.

Flyte and Sparrow
12 sites · RVs, Tents96 acres · Reno, Sierra
When you come to camp here you are on a working farm in transition. Girlfarm has been a local food go to for restaurants, farm family members, and regenerative agriculture interests. Today, the farm is looking forward to a new course in agri tourism as we begin planning walking gardens, art installations in the landscape, and interactive classes.
If you would like a list of grass fed meats available, veggies, or herbs just text your host before arrival.
We are looking for a seasonal self contained camper who we could offer trade for camp care - text host directly.
Its been a huge water season so skeeters are around we also recommend tents have a rain fly and ground cloth.
Welcome
It was important to choose a partner like Hipcamp to invite like minded individuals who respect both the natural environment and the idea of less is more.
At any time you may encounter farming activities, building out of tiny houses for future bookings, or gardens in the process of creation.
As we move toward offering the land as a place to both find solitude or chosen participation our Flyte and Sparrow experience will hopefully be a place you will want to return to as your own tradition.

The Yuba Yurt
1 site · Lodging5 acres · North San Juan, Nevada
The Yuba Yurt is "glamping", or an idyllic remote working location, at its best. Carefully appointed "simplicity" immersed in Nature, but with stable high speed internet, situated equidistantly between the three forks of the "wild and scenic" Yuba River. Enjoy!
THE SPACE
Venture to the heart of Yuba river country and experience the rustic comfort
of glamping in a 30’ pacific yurt. A remedy for “Nature Deficit Disorder”, this is your opportunity to taste the magic of simple living in the round.
Located on the North San Juan ridge at the edge of Tahoe National Forest,
endless outdoor activities abound.
Enjoy incredible hiking, crystal-clear swimming holes and world-class
mountain biking trails during summer and pristine snow-play areas away from the crowds during winter.
Take in gorgeous scenic drives and numerous points of historical interest--including Malokoff Diggins--from California gold rush period.
Discover the active gold mining town of Allegheny, the scenic beauty of Downieville or soak the afternoon away at Sierra Hot Springs in Sierraville.
The village of Nevada city--with all it has to offer--is just 20 minutes
away.
Or simply relax...
As much a nature blind as a dwelling, the yurt is located on 5 peaceful
acres of mixed oak and madrone woodland with a filtered view of the Sierra
foothills, a claw foot bath tub under the stars and much more.
Light and airy with both propane and wood heat, the well-designed interior
features a spacious kitchen, a comfy queen bed and a full bathroom. The kitchen is stocked for a cook with quality cooking equipment and is supplied with oils, sauces and spices.
Tranquil and rustic, but with WiFi and a small streaming set-up, there are also games and plenty of good books.
A perfect anytime retreat!
THE AREA
RiverSea East is located on the San Juan Ridge, an area near Nevada City and Grass Valley that extends about 24 miles between the south and middle forks of the Yuba River.
A small Nevada County community far removed from town, modern day North San Juan is part hippie, part isolationist, part new age and part conservative.It's only a 20 minute drive from downtown Nevada City, but since you have to drive up and down the heavily forested, windy river-canyon road, it feels rather remote. When you get there, it consists of less than ten businesses scattered around the mountains, a bushel of dreadlocked hippies, a bunch of pot farms, a vineyard, and LOTS of empty, undeveloped wood, making North San Juan a really beautiful place, surrounded, as it is, by forested mountains and rivers.
North San Juan is a great place to explore. There's all kinds of hidden spots, neat places to go, river access with good swimming holes and little stores and cafes. This area is spotted with little organic farms, beautiful little houses and the occasional run-down looking trailer.Farm, house OR trailer, because North San Juan and the Ridge are so sparsely populated, every residence seems to have acres of property that the people are free to plant, enjoy or neglect at will.
OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF
PETS: Your well-behaved dog is welcome with advanced permission and agreement to our pet policy for an additional $10.00 per night. As this is a wilderness area with abundant wildlife, do not let your dog wander outside at night unattended. NEVER leave your dog unattended at the yurt or let them roam unleashed in the woods. Neighbors will report dogs who bark incessantly.
PARTIES and extra visitors are not allowed. Quiet time in the neighborhood is 10pm
SAVE OUR ROAD SPEED is 10mph at all times.
