We Keep Coming Back Cuz We Love It
We’ve lost count how many times we’ve camped at Sierra Circles. It’s our go-to favorite place for a couple nights away from the hustle of the Bay Area. We’ve made it a habit to visit the winery tasting room, walk the trails on the property and plenty of spots to have a unique happy hour in the woods. Michel is source for local information and things to do if you want to leave the property. We will be back again in 2024. Thanks for always making us feel welcomed at our little camping home away from home.

We Love Sierra Circles!
This was our second time camping at Sierra Circles. We love the camp sites and walking through the sculpture gardens. It’s so unique with the art space that they’ve created. The camp host is very friendly and takes good care of the property. It has such good proximity to Murphy’s and other outdoor adventures. We’ll absolutely keep coming back!

We had a big group and spread out across 3 sites. This was a great site for tucking away from the action of the communal kitchen!

Beautiful spot, was everything I was looking for. The art pieces were a fantastic back drop for camping, and the space had everything we needed including a great area for prepping/cooking. Plenty of hikes and things to do outside nearby, and the the main street of Murphys had great food/drink. Wonderful stay
