Plum Grotto Tent Platform
Would definitely return
The space at plum grotto was beautiful, an amazing fire pit spot for making s’mores, a table for sitting under the shaded trees and even a cooking space complete with a gas grill. The stream running through the spot was serene we would definitely return, our host Izaac was kind enough to leave us citronella candles to help fight the mosquito population which by far was the only troublesome part. But with bug spray that can be managed .

Plum Grotto Tent Platform
Pictures do not do the site justice. Especially with the camp lights on, the site looks beautiful. It's a very spacious, private, tucked away site that's well kept and maintained. I'm talking even the glass table that was provided as a dining table was spotless! The bathroom with hot shower was super clean. Just be sure to bring your kitchenware-stove, utensils, pots and pans. Site only provides a BBQ (that doesn't have a powerful flame) and sink (which was a nice touch to have it right at the site). Repellant is a must-the mosquitos were relentless and aggressive. Location is pretty central-we went to Empire Mine, Scott's Flat and the South Yuba Independence Trail during our long weekend there. We'd recommend!

Plum Grotto Tent Platform
Isaac and Jessica were wonderful hosts. The camp site was very private and hidden from view from the main residence. There were power outlets, hanging lights, gas grill, a small sink and small table to stage food, plenty of spaces for three 6 person tent. We absolutely loved their smokeless fire pit. The raised platform was a nice touch. Flushable toilet and shower was just a short walk away.
This site will be high on our list of places to revisit.
Thank you Isaac and Jennifer.

Plum Grotto Tent Platform
Camping at the Plum Grotto Tent on Isaac's land was so peaceful! If you are looking to camp in the vicinity I highly recommend.
My boyfriend and I wanted to camp somewhere private, and this fit the bill. The hosts are super friendly, and the location of the camping area is secluded from the main house down a little walking path on far side of property.
There is a sweet fire pit, and a table with lighting as well, plus little protected stand/counter area to store food. It's certainly nice to be able to access a separate bathroom (short walk to main house) with hot shower.
Location is convenient for explorations of the Grass Valley/Nevada City/ Colfax area. We brought our kayaks and enjoyed Bullards Bar and Scott's Flat Reservoir, along with a fun evening out in Nevada City. The Plum Grotto made a great home base.

Relaxing stay!
This was my first Hipcamp experience, and it was great! The Plum Grotto camp space matched the description perfectly, and having the tent platform, BBQ, and prep sink with potable water was great. Isaac was a friendly host, and was very accessible and provided some great local recommendations. I would stay here again. Thank you for the wonderful trip!
