Welcome to Garden Valley! A serene gem tucked away in the foothills of The Divide. Sit back in the forest and relax as you enjoy views of the country fused with deer, wild turkeys and other surprises! Get caught up in nature, pick some blackberries, take a mini hike on property, mountain bike world-class trails nearby, hunt for gold, take a dip in a crystal clear river or lake; and end the day cooking by firelight and roasting some smores! Don't miss all of our local Rubicon Trail Events and Jeepers Jamboree or stop by any of our beautiful local lakes and wineries. There are a few local eateries and an ice cream parlor close by, in case you get the hankering! We have five tent spaces (one 2 person tent is up and available, be sure to bring your own bedding and coolers!) RV hook ups, electricity, fire pits with cooking capabilities, large farm sink with well water and soap, rustic outdoor shower and the cleanest out house in Nor Cal! Come rejuvenate in the forest and reset! A stunning 45 minute drive from South Lake Tahoe and a 14 minute drive to historic yet modern conveniences of Georgetown and Placerville. Come and reset the way you deserve to! Try and arrive as close to daylight as possible, it gets dark! We do have some lit up trees at the gate entrance. Please adhere to the 72 hr cancellation window for refunds. Enjoy!Our campsites are located on a beautifully maintained yet wild and tranquil 3 acres in Garden Valley, fifteen convenient minutes from downtown historic Placerville. Enjoy up to 5 seperate tent sites and hook ups for RV's. Electricity, running water, internet, mini-frig and starter wood included. There are cooking mechanisims in firepits as well as a large grill, picnic tables and a min-frig for your convenience. A large farmhouse sink, rustic outdoor shower and the cleanest out house on The Divide are also located on the campsite. You may reserve the entire site or a portion. Our campsite is very serene and peaceful with views of the countryside. There are plenty of activities from taking a hike, gem hunting, swimming in the crystal clear rivers and lakes nearby, enjoying a winery or simply reading a book in a hamock. This is the place to getaway from it all, find solace and re-energise or have a blast solo or with a group of friends, either way we got you covered! We keep it simple. You May rent one space or the entire campsite to yourself. Fifteen minutes away from modern conveniences of Georgetown and Placerville. 45 minutes outside of South Lake Tahoe.
