120 acres of ponderosa pine, granite, creekside hangs, and wide-open sky tucked into the Sierra Nevada foothills, about an hour east of Sacramento. Happy Pines sits in a pretty sweet spot between the American River Canyon and the rolling wine country of El Dorado County, which means there’s a lot more to do here than just camp. On the property, you’ll find creek access with swimming holes worth the drive on their own, private mountain bike trails, long golden sunsets, and a night sky that actually lets you remember what stars look like. Step off-property and the options stack up fast. The South Fork of the American River is about 20 minutes away, offering some of California’s best whitewater with Class III and IV rapids for both first-timers and seasoned river folks. The Gold Hill and Fair Play wine regions are a short drive south, with small-batch wineries pouring bottles you won’t find at the grocery store. World-class mountain biking in Georgetown is 25 minutes away, Auburn State Recreation Area is practically next door, and Tahoe-area trail systems are under two hours away. Come camp, swim, ride, wander, and stay a little weird.Happy Pines Hideout 1 is a flat, shaded site nestled among the pines with open sky above. The photos for these sites are the same because they are all in the same area. There are no hookup amenities here. Please note there may be other guests visible nearby.
