Covered Glenn Campsite
First address was 8050. Way up and too isolated to be w small kids
Booking was confusing and we pitched tent where to chose as no host present . Didn’t see compostable toilet also as I thought was noted as on site . L

Covered Glenn Campsite
Very comfortable camp site. The river is about a mile or so down the road but you need to drive there. There is nothing to do in the town and no stores / gas nearby so plan accordingly.
The swimming hole is beautiful and very safe.

Covered Glenn Campsite
Our big group had a great time on Roger’s campsite! It was nice to have the whole place to ourselves. We really appreciated the kitchen and sink setup and the tables and chairs already available. The composting toilet is nicer than using an enclosed porta potty.
The proximity to the river was a major plus, we really enjoyed making the short drive to the river where we spent most of the day. The river was very beautiful and is fairly easy to get to from the campsite.
One thing to know is that the campsite is on a hill. There is a good amount of flat space but just know that the more tents you have, the more you’ll have to take up some of the flat space near the kitchen/hang out area.

Higher Ground provided exactly the peace and solitude we were searching for! It’s a short drive to some epic river spots, and in the heat of the day the shade cover keeps camp the perfect temperature for rest and relaxation. The outdoor kitchen set up was beautiful, providing a great view and gentle breeze while you cook. Raji keeps the camp tidy and tasteful, with just enough lighting to welcome us to camp after dark, but not enough to impede the epic stars at night! We would visit again and highly recommend!

We absolutely loved this site. It’s off the beaten path and feels like you have a whole mountainside to yourself to explore. It is challenging to park due to the incline but not impossible. Raji stopped by to say hello and chat at for a bit. It was great meeting him and seeing the potential for this site to grow. You have a huge area to yourself with a restroom. And if you wake up early enough to hike up the hill you can watch the sunrise! 🌅 Highly recommend to those who love staying in places where most people wouldn’t and aren’t afraid of a trek to get there.

Great airy location, and we used the already pitched tent.
The propane gas stove worked nicely - after we got the propane bottle installed. Nice walk up the hill at night.
We arrived later than expected, though no cell phone service so no way of connecting with host. Geisty did come shortly after we arrived - though turns out in the kitchen the propane bottle and any cooking pans where missing - Geisty got us some. There is a basic sink, outdoor tables, with protected overhangs, and various chairs/sofas scattered around.
It is hot dry country, and it was one mile on a well graded dirt road to the camp site. The entrance is pretty steep, so takes a confident driver and good engine to get in - just worked with out with our Kia Niro PHEV . Geisty lives nearby. I would say plan to have everything you need, though it might be there.

I loved camping here! It’s the perfect place if you are very low maintenance and are looking for a tent to sleep in! Having a kitchen was wonderful and the privacy and seclusion was refreshing. The stars are also beautiful and so visible!

I liked the place. It has water, a stove, some chairs and tents in case you don't want to bring your own. There's a hot tub that you heat with firewood. So bring one if you want to take a hot bath after coming back from the river. I liked a lot of things about the place, but I have some reservations. For example, when I read the description, I got the impression that the river ran through the property, but that's not the case. To get to the closest point, we had to drive to the bridge. It took about 7 to 10 minutes. We had some surprises at night too. Keep all your food in the tent. At night, a family of deer attacked our campsite and ate all the meat, vegetables, and fruit, even the snacks. They managed to drag my cooler about 20 meters into the forest. They scattered trash everywhere. They made a mess. But maybe it was partly our fault for not taking precautions. Another surprise in the morning was a bear that showed up there. I had never seen a bear before, I thought it was great, but I know how risky it could be if it decided to come down to where we were. He was about 50 meters away from us. Save your offline map, because there was no signal for about 30 minutes before reaching the campsite. Our car didn't go up the ramp inside the property, it's a Prius, so we decided to camp with our own tent at the bottom of the property, it wasn't a problem. Anyway. It was a trip full of stories to tell. 😂 Be prepared.

Shady site was a decent spot for a stay and crash for the night. I appreciated having the outdoor kitchen available, and the foam mattress was quite comfy compared to my usual tent sleeping pad.

We found this spot after our usual family camping spot was smoked out from wildfires. My family LOVED this camping spot! The proximity to the river and lots of great swimming spots was just what we needed. The site itself has just about everything you need for camping. When I read that it had a camp kitchen, I had no idea how extensive it was! There is a full propane two-burner stove, utensils, a working sink, counter space, and more. It is covered with a shade tent so you aren't too hot when you're cooking. There is a super chill place to relax with a large shade tent, couches, and tables, complete with a speaker, so all you have to do is plug in your favorite downloaded music. Geisty even brought the charging cable for the speaker since we used up the battery, which was super nice. Additionally, there are extra tents, sleeping bags, and tons of camping chairs. The spot is shady, which is nice in the heat of the day. You can really bring very little because the spot is so well-appointed. The camping area is built into a hill, which isn't an issue; it's just something to know. This site is not near cell or wifi service or other amenities. It's almost an hour to Laytonville and service, so if you are looking to be close to a town, this may not be your spot. If you are looking for a spot where you can unplug outdoors, swim, read books, play games, and generally enjoy the folks you are with- this IS your spot! I highly recommend Higher Ground!

Great spot and setup. Directions and entry instructions were very clear. Off a very quiet road, lots of shade with room to put up tent under a large sun shade next to sofas chairs and a table. There is also a small tent already set up. Steps away is a full kitchen setup with counters, sink, water, kitchen table, and storage, under shade tents that would also keep rain off. Composting toilet is a bit up the hill, not far. It was a good place to have our dogs. A determined dog might slip under the gate, but the gate is not right next to tent site, and the road isn’t busy, so it was all good. It was a hot weekend so it was great being just a few minutes from the beach below the bridge across the Eel River, where we spent our days. Very nice place to spend some summer nights.

Overall would recommend! The land was private and outdoorsy. Geisty added a lot of cool features - an air stream, tents, rugs, outdoor kitchenette, and even a compost toilet. Super rad spot for all types of campers. We were in and out of the site so didn’t get to enjoy it fully but are sure someone else would. My one note is about getting to the site. The route we took was a windy dirt road for about 30min. Not all cars are capable of doing so, and we had to park on the side road because our cars were unable to climb the hill to the actual gated area. No reception. Not a complaint, just for future campers. Thanks for the accommodation Geisty!
