36mi from Vallejo · 4 sites · Tents, RVs, LodgingWelcome to our land in the beautiful wilderness of upper Calistoga. Our land is true wilderness, with some development of trails and amenities, at our Calistoga ranch just 10 minutes outside of town, wineries, spas, and restaurants. The hilltop (where Coral Cabin is located) has electricity and wifi, and is a common area for all campers behind the shade screens. The main house is not part of hipcamp; tenants are a nice family but keep to themselves.
Our land is shared by my cousins, uncle, and myself, and I am off-site most of the time. My cousin lives on site but is not part of hipcamp, and our tenants take care of other aspects of the land, but also are not part of hipcamp. For this reason, communication with Dan is super important to ensure expectations are clear for you and us, our land is respected, and you have a great time! That means: when I text you with questions, please text back! Read the guide! Lots of issues can be mitigated this way, and you can get maximum enjoyment out of our land.
That said: This hipcamp is a 'leave no trace, clean up after yourself' campground. We provide trash bags and ask that you take all trash and recycling to the bottom of the driveway, in the 'hipcamp' trash bin provided (smaller grey bin by mailbox). So again, there is no host on site, but I am very available by text, all times, and there is a caretaker on site for emergencies. If all of this that is ok with you, read on!
We currently have 3 campsites. Please see descriptions for each campsite access and services available. *The Hilltop/Coral Cabin has the most access and services and the best views.
You will see lots of wildlife! Beautiful birds song every morning, little lizards everywhere, turkeys, deer...(some non-edible, but) beautiful wild mushrooms at the right time of year! You can hike the extent of our 34 acres on fire roads that lead to the top of the Whaleback Ridge, seen in the distance from all camps. That would be an epic sunset hike!
Please see Site descriptions for more details.
