Butterfly Breathe. Slow way down. Enjoy. Please read this Description in entirety. We are so delighted to share this spot with you. This is a shared campground with 3 separate spots that are relatively private. Host will NOT be there when you arrive unless prior arrangement made. This campground is yours to enjoy. The expectation is 'leave it better than before so the next guests may enjoy! This is camping. BRING YOUR OWN GEAR. Put your own linens and bedding on top of what is already on bed. I can provide linens and bedding for an extra $25 for glamping spots. Beds have pillows on them. There is wildlife. This includes bears and mountain lions in the area. You will not see either but good to be aware they exist. This is a safe 'neighborhood'. We do not have problems with thievery. However, always keep your valuables safe IN YOUR CAR. There is no Power. No WiFi. Cell phone coverage not guaranteed. Depends on your carrier. DOWNLOAD DIRECTIONS AND INFO BEFORE ARRIVING TO SITE. There is Poison Oak. Stay in the designated areas. If you are susceptible, bring and wash with Tecnu. Or use dish soap and wash. Poison oak is an oil. Most importantly: Don't Touch. No Fires allowed during Summer months. Be super careful. No candles. Smoke in fire pit area. Grass is a tinderbox. 1 spark can ignite all. There is a hose connected to kitchen. There is a Pet Fee stay. 1 pet per site allowed unless prior arrangement made. You are responsible to clean up after your pet and to make sure pet is safe and respectful to neighbors. This means you DO NOT leave your pet unattended, and is leashed at all times. If your pet is barking continuously, we ask that you leave. It is not respectful for all other neighbors. Please bring your own bed for your dogs and clean up after a shedding dog if you are indoors. We ask that guests clean up your camping spot upon departure to 'make the place better than before' for the next guests. Butterfly Landing is a sweet landing spot! Birds, butterflies and small wildlife love this spot. The habitat includes many native species of plant life. A pretty knoll that is on the top of a 40 acre property. Views of vineyards, redwood trees, valley floor, and expansive sky. Private, Quiet and beautiful. A central sunny meadow ties together 3 distinct private areas with a communal kitchen, bath-house, picnic-table sitting area and parking on the side. There is 1 outhouse that has a mailbox system to ensure privacy. (Please read manual on picnic table for instructions) Kitchen. 2 burner propane stove, and sink with running water (cold). (Good for drinking. Pressure is low) There is basic cooking and dishware. Cleaning supplies. A Trash and Recycle Bin. And a Compost bucket where all food scraps should be disposed of and then covered with wood-chips. Kitchen should stay clean at all times. Please put dishes away in the tote to keep clean and critter free. Bath-house. Shower with hot water. 1 shared Outhouse. Please use the path that goes to the outhouse (unless you are in the Greenroom) and make sure you put the mailbox red flag up so that others know it is occupied. ((Then don't forget to put it back down!!) Common sitting area. There are 2 picnic tables, Lots of umbrellas that can be moved wherever, a fire pit/table and lots of seating. Parking. There are room for 3 vehicles. Parking is to be in designated parking area please. Sunny meadow and forest shade make this a lovely landing spot to relax and enjoy nature, and a great opportunity to turn off those cell phones!! Butterfly Landing is about 1/2 mile from HWY 128 that runs through Anderson Valley. This location is the perfect location for it all. Wine tasting in the Valley, Navarro River swimming during the summer months, and the Mendocino coast is nearby. This is an Honor system camping spot. We ask that you leave your spot 'better than before', as in 'Leaver no Trace'. I rely on everyone to do their part in the communal kitchen to keep clean and free of critters. SUPER IMPORTANT to put all food scraps in the compost bin. NO food anything in the trash. This is how the bears show up. Please do your part. Thank you so much. It is my honor to share this land with you.

Bluebell Glamping Tent

100%
(30)
Bell tent · Sleeps 4
BlueBell Is a Glamping Tent that sits on a beautiful deck in the sunniest and lower part of the meadow. It is private with lovely views. This is a standard glamping bell tent for 2 people that features a queen sized bed. Bring your own linens and bedding. Please leave Bluebell tent just as you found it when you depart.. Add Pet fee in Extras if you are bringing a pet..$20.00 per pet. Permission required for more than 1 pet. A double futon is also available for extra guests upon request. Add extra guests in booking. Linens and bedding can be rented for $25 in the Extras. Bluebell is the furthest from the campground facilities (50 yards) and therefore the most private. There is a cart to carry gear down the hill. Parking is in the designated parking area at the top. Do not drive down. Common area includes the kitchen, picnic tables, sitting area and the bathhouse with a hot outdoor shower. There is 1 outhouse for the Butterfly Campground. The Bluebell tent is the most spacious and is a lovely hangout to read, do yoga, or just relax in nature. The lower meadow in particular has various native flowers and plants. Please be aware that poison oak is also an important native plant that provides habitat for wildlife and is abundant everywhere. Stay on the paths that we have created for your safety. Please note the tent has a sprinkling of black spots/stains on the outside which is from Oak-tree duff, the material the Native Americans (Pomos) used to make Black dye in this area. We learned to not have our tent under Oak trees, but it is totally harmless. This is a very quiet and private spot, however, the car traffic from 128, sometimes can be heard, especially on the weekends. Just a heads up. We are so happy to share this land and host you. It is truly a special landing spot. Enjoy all.

The Green Room
The campsite was great. We stayed in the Green Room but walked around the entire property and cannot recommend it enough. It is quiet and feels like you’re right in the forest. The Green Room was big free and had a comfortable bed for 2! We opted to add in wood and unfortunately it was wet but Kira was kind enough to refund us after we were unable to light a fire. Kira was great with communication and questions. This is the perfect site to go enjoy the vineyards of Anderson Valley.

The bed was comfy and dry in the changeable weather. The view of the stars and the vineyard were wonderful with the fall colors. Bring a towel if you want to use the shower, and an led lamp.

This hipcamp is truly wonderful! The vineyard view camp site is great and the whole camp has all the things you would need - a picnic table, a fun (and warm) outdoor shower, and a clean outhouse. Loved staying here and would go back!

Vineyard View Camping Spot
Kira has created a lovely little experience in the heart of the Anderson Valley. My wife and I stayed at the Vineyard View tent site and by some stroke of luck we had the entire property to ourselves for the entire long weekend. The amenities are all on point and everything has been thought of. The property is located close to many wineries and restaurants so there are a lot of things to do. If you're van camping you won't be able to park directly at the tent camp site but will park in the common parking area but there is plenty of space and the sites have a good amount of privacy.

My wife and I stayed in the green room. It was a cute space to sleep. The outdoor shower was roomy and had nice hot water. When we stayed, none of the other sites were booked so we had the shower, bathroom, and kitchen to ourselves.

Relaxing in Kira’s Butterfly Camp
Bluebell Glamping Tent
Kira’s Butterfly Camp is a great place for campers to leave urban and suburban stress behind by relaxing in a beautiful natural setting. We especially liked glamping in the large tent. Her place has resources that make it a comfortable intro to camping in nature for those not used to doing so. Kira was very helpful providing information and suggestions both before and during our stay.

Vineyard View Camping Spot
Nice view of the stars from the main clearing area! It was super peaceful and perfect spot for tent camping that gave privacy. Loved the sink stations for easy access to handwashing and plenty of space to relax. The weather was very nice with cool roads to help with the hotter summer weather. Located in a great spot where you can feel secluded in nature, but still be within distance to the local towns. Enjoyed being there during the Mendocino Apple Harvest Festival and enjoyed all of the small town festivities that came with it. From the rodeo, to the fair, local eats, church service, car show and parade, and star gazing it was a perfect location for a small getaway to say goodbye to summer. Kira was very accommodating as well and welcoming when it came to arrival and departure times. We're grateful for the leniency of our timeline that allowed for us to explore the local spots.

Vineyard View Camping Spot
Kira’s spot in the Anderson Valley is beautiful. Conveniently located near Philo(and its amazing Jumbo’s WinWin), cool Apple farms, and plenty of wineries. The site had all of the necessary amenities and was clean and tidy. The view of the vineyard through the trees was very serene. I’d definitely come back next time I travel through Mendocino.

Vineyard View Camping Spot
Review: Kira was an incredibly accommodating and helpful host, and her property was truly amazing. The setting provided a genuine camping experience, complete with a true outhouse and a charming forest shower—easy to use and refreshing, even if the water pressure wasn’t very strong. The outdoor kitchen was handy and included some useful cooking tools. We stayed with our rooftop tent and were the only campers that night, which made it peaceful and quiet, aside from the occasional sound of neighbors driving in and out. One thing to note: the path to the property is steep and unpaved. It wasn’t a problem during our stay, but it could be challenging in wet weather, so future guests may want to keep that in mind. Overall, we had a great stay and appreciated the unique, rustic experience.

Lovely rustic bohemian campsite
Bluebell Glamping Tent
Lovely Rustic bohemian camp site. We rented all three spots with friends and had a great time together. Things to know: the night sky is amazing, there is a simple outdoor shared kitchen, bathroom is private but without door (it didn’t smell but no door was a surprise to our friends), while there is plenty of seating some of the options have seen better days, we heard coyotes and saw birds and butterflies. We live an hour away and would love to come back to stay again.

This was a great little camp spot. They have 3 options, we chose the tent spot that’s near the vineyard. They have a vault toilet, nice outdoor hot shower, and outdoor kitchen with all the amenities needed. They have plenty of tables and seating as well. 10/10 would camp here again.

The site is great for stargazing and though there are other camp sites close by, it is spread out enough to allow for privacy. It is glamping and the shower works great. Great to be close to good trails and beaches.

We had a great experience in the yurt. Kira's land provided us with a wonderful cost-effective way to stay in Anderson Valley and really enjoy its natural beauty. Was great to get the camping experience, but also really nice to be able to comfortably make coffee in the kitchen and use the compost toilet when needed. There were no other campers on the couple weekdays we stayed there so we had the whole place to ourselves - so peaceful!

My family and I enjoyed our three night stay at the Bluebell tent. It was nice to sleep in a made tent with an actual bed. As a parent I appreciate a good hot shower and an accessible kitchen. Was a close place to the Navarro river for a quick dip or a stroll through the Red Woods.

The Green Room was a comfy stay for us and our pup! The room was nice and cozy, even with the cold temps at night. The outhouse and kitchen and shower all met expectations! The hot water in the shower was really nice. The common areas had lots of seating and pillows, which was also very appreciated. I didn't have any mobile data signal here, but was able to communicate with Kira thru SMS text.
