Completely removed from civilization and surrounded by a barren nature that is alive with the subtle presence of the universe. Seasonally, Spring wildflowers burst across the landscape. Cave paintings of Chumash Indians at Painted Rock remind us of those who lived before us. **Read on for more details.** This is our home but we love to share our life in the outback. We believe it will give you a better appreciation of life's simpler side. That being said, and to maintain the balance here at home, we'd appreciate if you keep your dogs in your car until you get to your site. Our offerings include fresh air and sunshine, amazing night sky, endless views, and plenty of space and privacy to enjoy your moments in nature. You'll find our amenities and activities puposefully sparse here. Upon booking, there are about 5 miles of dirt road on the property that you are welcome to explore on foot or by bicycle.

For any sites located south of Ballinger Wash, your vehicle length is limited to 22' and no more than 4' overhang from the rear axle, so you don't get stuck in the crossing and block access for others. Towing services are 1-3 hours away. Our Songdog Camps are sparsely scattered atop a 200 foot mesa that looks west over a valley offering stunning desert sunsets and amazing stargazing. These UPPER SITES are NOT OHV friendly, but any of our canyon bottom sites are a great base for your riding adventures up in Ballinger Canyon OHV. We'll be happy to recommend a site for you. **Forest Service law enforcement is actively ticketing unplated OHV on Ballinger Canyon Road. Be sure to know and abide by the laws.** Our friendly cancellation policies vary between 24 hours for simple campsites and 72 hours for our Glamp sites and Group sites.

Natural Bridge Station, VA · 25 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Situated at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and bordering the Jefferson National Forest, Thunder BRidge has scenic, large, private tent sites and cabins in the woods for those who want to experience camping at its finest. Many of the sites border Elk Creek. Our RV sites are large, flat and at the edge of the forest in a well kept open green space. Our 100 acres was originally a camp built by the Civilian Conservation Corp in the "30s and early '40s, then a boys' juvenile detention center and Big Brothers'/Big Sisters' camp, which closed in 2009. The tent sites and cabins are in the forest, away from the buildings out front, but you're free to walk around and check out the historic site. Most of the buildings out front are artist studios (currently for 16 artists). We like to share the camp with others and watch it come back to life. All within a short driving distance are the Natural Bridge, wineries, breweries, Natural Bridge Zoo, Safari Park, Dinosaur Kingdom, Appalachian Trail, Blue Ridge Parkway, James River, historic Lexington, Devil's Marbleyard, Glenwood Horse Trail, swimming holes, etc. We have river access 2 miles up the road if you'd like to fish or put your kayak or canoe in. Truly, there is something nearby for everyone. We'd be happy to give you recommendations of things to see and do. If you are a star gazer you won't be disappointed by our dark sky. We want to share our property with those who want to stay for more than one night, so we do not accept inquiries of single night stays. We also don't offer longterm rentals as we focus on short term camping.

North Sandwich, NH · 14 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Simply the best tenting you can find in the White Mountains. The campground to get away from campgrounds, where magic touches every corner. Sacred Nectar rests on the land of the Wabanaki Tribes. This land, now known by it's view gifting fields, is one of Sandwich's top treasured gems. The Historic Farm was purchased by Townsend Thorndike from the first colonizing family to claim ownership of this unceded land, the McCrillis family. It was Town's place to get away from the busy life. As time went on and his money dwindled and plans to sell off some of the land arose. Townsend's son, Nick, foresaw a devastating development of conventional homes that would diminish the soul of this sacred land that held so much magic. So, Nick decided to move back to the homestead to create an example of what a healthy life for the land and its inhabitants looks like. HipCamp was the first step towards sharing and opening up the land to create an Intentional lifestyle. One in which we hope to share our way of being that brings awareness to the natural world we have fallen so far from. Nick and his tribe of like minds are creating a holistic, educational, retreat, workshop, and event center where people can come to learn how to co-exist in a harmonious relationship with nature and each other. Thank you for being a part of the healing. We hope you enjoy what we have created here :)

Arlington, WA · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Nestled near Arlington, our 75-acre property spans both new and old forest, featuring a salmon-filled creek and a large beaver pond—all set against the dramatic backdrop of a 1,200-foot sheer rocky cliff crowned with old-growth trees. Since its purchase in 1958 as a family retreat, this land has grown into much more than a getaway. It has become a place for relaxation, adventure, and connection with nature—a private forest for family and friends to enjoy. Over the years, the family has adopted forest stewardship and sustainable timber harvesting practices, while also developing campsites, trails, hosting rock concerts, and even producing wine. What began as a simple escape has evolved into something extraordinary: a tree farm that successfully balances nearly every goal a forest landowner could imagine—timber production, wildlife habitat, natural beauty, recreation, and forest resilience. Valhalla embodies all of this with harmony. We think you will feel the unusual vibe.

Weekend Trip to Mt Rancho (FKA La Montaña Ranch)

I was looking for a place to go camping with our pup to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and I’m really glad we found Puri Camp. The location is great. It does take a bit of off-roading to get there, but that honestly made it more fun and part of the experience. The campsite itself was in a really nice spot. We had enough shade to set up comfortably, but still got some amazing views. The scenery out there is seriously beautiful. Wide open landscapes, rolling hills, and some really great light around sunset. It’s the kind of place where you just sit there and take it all in. The site had everything we needed, and it was super convenient that firewood was available right there. There are also hiking trails nearby with even more great viewpoints. Karina and Chris were easy to communicate with and made everything a breeze.

I absolutely loved this Hipcamp—it felt like a truly magical place. At first glance, some might think the price is a bit high for dry camping, but once you arrive, it quickly feels like an incredible value. There’s so much to appreciate. My campsite had a stunning view, along with thoughtful amenities like a propane fire pit and picnic table—but what really makes this place special goes far beyond the basics. It’s the birds singing all around you, the sweet, earthy scent of the surrounding scrub, and the wildflowers scattered across the 50 acres that you can wander and explore. What stood out most was the care and intention behind every detail—from the peaceful layout of the land to the small, meaningful touches like solar-powered watering stations for dogs and wildlife. It’s clear this place was created with heart. I could go on, but honestly, you just have to experience it for yourself. There’s an energy here that’s hard to describe—and once you feel it, you won’t want to leave.

2 nights at Cosumnes River Ranch

Just beautiful, what a wonderful little gem of a camp. We stayed at Sawyer’s Bar site 3; it was covered in wild flowers, was a huge site with many flat places to put a tent, close to the porta potties (which were always clean and didn’t smell), and was just atop a small, sandy hill right on the edge of the river. We fell asleep to the sound of the rushing water nearby. The camp manager Tom came by to greet us and check on us, he was so friendly, helpful and fun to talk to. We brought our 4 young kids and our dog, everyone had the best time! The swim hole was nearby, but the water was a bit too swift for our little ones at this time of year. Camp 2 was unoccupied and has a small inlet of calm water that the kids waded around in safely. It was a little cold the first night (upper 40s), but we bundled the kids up and they were nice and toasty the second night. No complaints at all, 10/10 would recommend!!

3 nights at Cosumnes River Ranch

As a first time HipCamper, this was an amazing first trip. The land is beautiful, open and a bit wild. We pulled into Sawyers Bar #4 with a big rig without any trouble. The roads are well maintained and level. The camp area is very clean, weed whacked and spread out. We met Tom shortly after arriving and he was so interested in our needs and comfort on the ranch. We spent 3 nights and throughout all of it Tom would pop in now and then just to check in. As we are both curious people we asked him lots of questions and he was not only full of information but gave it freely and never seemed liked we were holding him up. The Sawyers bar area is 6 sites and it was mostly young families and quiet couples. The outhouses are well positioned and well maintained. We were impressed with how nice they were. The 2 near our site even had a sink and paper towels. The river was easily accessed from many paths with one main sandy beach area for all guests to share. We loved it and highly recommend this spot.

This was above and beyond what we were hoping for! We stayed in Bear 1 with 2 kids. Great access to the outhouse, big fields and obstacles, but also the creek for fishing. We will 30000% be returning! Loved the privacy and the history of the place. One of our favorite camping trips ever. And Adam was super responsive and quick. Thank you for such a great time!

This place is absolutely wonderful. We stayed right by the creek, and the sound of the water made the experience peaceful and relaxing. The sites are very spacious, giving you plenty of room and privacy. The views from the campsites up the mountain are beautiful. Andrew, the host and owner, is friendly and helpful, and communication with him was easy and smooth. I highly recommend this place and would definitely come back.
