Lost Coast Petrolia Mattole Rd Camp, California

Pitch a tent or park your RV right off the main road to the spectacular Lost Coast of California. Our property is located 5 minutes from Cape Mendocino

beach and 4 minute drive to downtown Petrolia, we are surrounded by scenic pastoral views and ancient forest. We have multiple camping options and a wood chip driveway that can accommodate a couple RV's (or vehicle camping). Our land has fields and forest, a seasonal creek, and incredible star gazing. We are right on the Mattole Road, so the RV spots and campsites close to the road with easy access will see cars, but we have 26 acres including plenty of tucked away spots that can be walked to and are far from the road if you are seeking seclusion. We are working on developing campsites, but for now, you can have your choice of where to camp on the property. You can sleep out in an open meadow or in the forest under the Pepperwood trees. This is a working farm, so there are livestock and everything that comes along with them on the property! We have sheep, goats, geese, and chickens.

Our property has been farmed and ranched since the late 1860's and has a beautiful old barn. As the most recent stewards of the land, our family is starting a small organic farm on it this spring/summer. It is a beautiful place and a work in progress! For now we can offer fresh spring water and Wi-Fi access to our guests, as well as knowledge of the local area.

Downtown Petrolia has a general store (sells gas but only accepts cash), Sunday Farmer's Market at the community center, a pioneer cemetery to explore, the gorgeous Mattole River for fishing and swimming, and access to the Mattole Beach.
