Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Tucked away off Old Santa Cruz Highway, Josie’s Property offers a peaceful camping experience surrounded by the redwoods of the Santa Cruz Mountains. The property provides convenient access to both Los Gatos and Santa Cruz via Highway 17, making it a great base for exploring the area while still enjoying a quiet, wooded setting. The dispersed RV and tent sites are best suited for self-contained campers, with space for larger vehicles and groups. Campfires and pets are allowed, and 4WD is recommended for easier access. Please note that there are no toilets, showers, potable water, or electrical hookups on-site, so guests should come prepared with everything they need for a comfortable stay. Enjoy a simple, secluded retreat among the trees, with nature all around and nearby access to Scotts Valley, Los Gatos, and Santa Cruz.Amongst the redwoods in SC mountains. 8minutes to Los Gatos and 12minutes to Scott’s Valley.
