Lahontan Shores Ranch is a 20-acre high desert retreat overlooking Lake Lahontan in Silver Springs, NV. The site offers panoramic views across open deserts and distant mountains. From this elevated perch, a private hiking trail winds down to the lake, where you can swim, kayak, fish, or just relax by the water.

Enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the water, then relax under a blanket of stars as the desert sky turns pitch black. In the morning, start your day outdoors, savoring your coffee as you take in the uninterrupted views and dramatic desert terrain.
Ideal for tents, rooftop campers, and self-contained RVs, Lahontan Shores Ranch is a peaceful high desert hideaway for those seeking raw, rugged Nevada beauty.

Camping here is low activity experience as in there is hiking up in the National Forest or just hanging out in your camp site, or bring your camera, notebook and binoculars, or road bike.
When you come to camp here you are on a 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.

We are looking for a seasonal self contained camper to do campground maintenance and upkeep. trade Only NO PETS SELF CONTAINED and background check
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, gardens in the process of creation, snakes, bugs, ticks, and wild animals.
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.

There is only one spot available at our property to reserve as we leave our trailer up there for most of the summer. The good news is you will have the place all to yourselves unless we happen to be there which is not very often and we will let you know if we overlap. This spot has a 30 amp RV plug and a sewer connection. There is no water or trash service so please bring your own water and practice pack in/pack out practices. This spot is for RV's only with a full restroom as we don't have restroom facilities onsite. This is a very quiet spot but does have a few neighbors within earshot so if you are planning on a party spot or having loud music this is not the spot for you. There is a large smoker/BBQ that is not maintained but is available for your use if you want, we have used it several times and it works great. There is also a firepit to use when fire season permits. We are only 4 miles from Graeagle, which is a great little town to explore and eat some ice cream in the park. There are many great lakes to explore in the immediate area including Lake Davis, Gold Lake, Upper Salmon Lake, and of course upper and lower sardine which are my favorites.

Missy's Mountain Meadows is our 200-acre wild grass ranch, a peaceful haven nestled in the breathtaking Honey Lake Valley—just north of Reno, NV, and south of Susanville, CA. We’re Missy and Kyle, along with our two little adventurers, Lucas (2 years old) and Liam (newborn!). As a young family, we’re pouring our hearts into this land, building a dream rooted in nature, community, and sustainable living. We currently live full-time just north of Lake Tahoe (about 1.5 hours from the ranch), but Kyle typically makes it out to the property 4–5 days per week.
Our ranch is a wide-open sanctuary, fully fenced and ready for you to explore with your RV, trailer, ATV, or horses. Marvel at the rolling grasslands, soak in the serene valley views, and discover the hidden springs tucked away at the back of the property. At the heart of our land is our growing honeybee apiary—a labor of love where our bees work tirelessly to turn nectar into golden honey.
Feel free to roam and enjoy the entire property, with just a few simple guidelines to keep everyone safe and happy:
Pets: We love pets! Please be aware that local predators (coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, etc.) may pose a risk. Close supervision is recommended for off-leash or outdoor pets.
Stay Within the Fenced Area: Explore freely across the full 200 acres, but please keep all activities within the ranch boundaries.
Respect the Honeybee Apiary: Observe the bees from a safe distance, especially if you’re allergic to stings. Do not enter the fenced apiary unless arranged as part of a guided tour.
Solar Stock Well: Please don’t enter the gated area or drink the well water.
Leave No Trace: Help us keep the ranch pristine by cleaning up after yourself and your pets or livestock.
Keep the Gate Locked: Please ensure the gate remains locked at all times.
This ranch is more than a stopover—it’s a place to connect with nature and share in our family’s journey. We can’t wait to welcome you to this special corner of Lassen County, where the stars shine bright and the valley whispers peace.
Enjoy your adventure on our land, and make yourself at home!

Some days we watch the electric storms across the valley, other afternoons we picnic and nap while listening to the birds and wind. We love the peace and silence, which feels remarkably remote and only 20 minutes from Reno.

We would love to share our 12 junipered acres with nature enthusiasts like ourselves. Bring your tent or camper and spend afternoons watching beautiful sunsets and wildlife from our land. Spectacular expansive views across the valley to the Sierras and Mount Rose. Conveniently 15 minutes from South Reno (40 minutes from North Lake Tahoe), the silence and absolute privacy here are restorative and replenishing. We do not have trash collection services available and we ask all guest to practice a “leave no trace” philosophy.
**Because of extreme fire risk in our area we ask guests to refrain from having campfires for now. As this area is home to beautiful wildlife (and a few other distant homeowners) please visit with an intent to respect the quiet and privacy that makes this area so pleasurable for us all. Thanks for visiting and enjoy your time!

Missy's Mountain Meadows is our 200-acre wild grass ranch, a peaceful haven nestled in the breathtaking Honey Lake Valley—just north of Reno, NV, and south of Susanville, CA. We’re Missy and Kyle, along with our two little adventurers, Lucas (2 years old) and Liam (newborn!). As a young family, we’re pouring our hearts into this land, building a dream rooted in nature, community, and sustainable living. We currently live full-time just north of Lake Tahoe (about 1.5 hours from the ranch), but Kyle typically makes it out to the property 4–5 days per week.
Our ranch is a wide-open sanctuary, fully fenced and ready for you to explore with your RV, trailer, ATV, or horses. Marvel at the rolling grasslands, soak in the serene valley views, and discover the hidden springs tucked away at the back of the property. At the heart of our land is our growing honeybee apiary—a labor of love where our bees work tirelessly to turn nectar into golden honey.
Feel free to roam and enjoy the entire property, with just a few simple guidelines to keep everyone safe and happy:
Pets: We love pets! Please be aware that local predators (coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, etc.) may pose a risk. Close supervision is recommended for off-leash or outdoor pets.
Stay Within the Fenced Area: Explore freely across the full 200 acres, but please keep all activities within the ranch boundaries.
Respect the Honeybee Apiary: Observe the bees from a safe distance, especially if you’re allergic to stings. Do not enter the fenced apiary unless arranged as part of a guided tour.
Solar Stock Well: Please don’t enter the gated area or drink the well water.
Leave No Trace: Help us keep the ranch pristine by cleaning up after yourself and your pets or livestock.
Keep the Gate Locked: Please ensure the gate remains locked at all times.
This ranch is more than a stopover—it’s a place to connect with nature and share in our family’s journey. We can’t wait to welcome you to this special corner of Lassen County, where the stars shine bright and the valley whispers peace.
Enjoy your adventure on our land, and make yourself at home!

Great spot for what we needed. The property is huge and we had it all to ourselves for the night. Normally we don’t need a power hook up, but this particular night we needed to top off our batteries. The spot with hook ups is right off the highway, which wasn’t a big deal once the traffic calmed down. But if you don’t need power then you’ll be camped away from the highway which is much better in my opinion. Melissa was very easy to communicate with and we definitely would camp here again!

Hard to beat the price and convenience of this site. Plus it's quiet and in a pretty area to boot. It was easy to find and communicate with our very helpful and friendly host.

The camp host came out to meet each arriving party and guide them to their spot (as most of us rolled in after dark). Later she started a bonfire, and for the next couple of hours folks congregated in small groups talking about where they had been and where they were going. Very enjoyable social experience.
Cooking facilities were excellent. They are outdoor, but it does not often rain here. Wind was moderate the night I was there. Two bathrooms (flush toilets and running water) quite close to the campsites.

The tent site was perfect; it was very peaceful, with wonderful views in all directions. Wendy was super and offered to get us extra wood for the fire since the wood on site was a bit moist from recent rain. We would definitely camp here again!

Small space, but adequate. The bathrooms, however, we're on another level! The water pressure was to die for, and the facilities & amenaties (club house, common area, etc) were awesome as well.
Will stay here again.

Weekend Trip to The Retreat on Big Grizzly Creek
This is a really great spot and we enjoyed our stay! We enjoyed the roaring creek next to us and hearing the water as we went to sleep and upon wake up! The tent was well built, felt cozy and secure. The propane heater provided was a MUST as we stayed mid-Oct and the nights were cold outside. It heated it up very quickly and we had to turn it down while we slept it got so toasty. While there are 2 options for parking, if we weren't able to park where we did (closer to the tent), it would have made for more difficult logistics. We just barely were able to get our full-sized truck backed down the path (between the posts) in order to park close to the tent. In muddy weather this might have been more challenging. FYI - you need to have some pretty decent backing up and maneuvering skills to back down through the gate, esp if you have a full sized truck like we did. We did navigate to this spot at night which was a bit challenging in the dark but everything worked out well. This is a nice, secluded and peaceful spot!
