**NEW** Rent our Cozy Container (see Extras) for a dry, warm and cozy Winter getaway!! Hello and welcome to The Deck on Albion Ridge! A Bit About Us: Born and raised on the Mendocino Coast and now raising our two young children here, we have been developing and preserving the natural beauty of our coastal Redwood property here in Albion for the past 13 years. One of the first things we built on this property was a 2,000 sqft deck that cantilevers over the hillside with a view of the Redwood ridges and Eastern sunrises beyond, all with wood milled from the property. We can't wait to share the beauty and tranquility of this campsite with you! Learn more about this land: What We Offer: Camp next to, and make use of, our large Redwood deck with sweeping ridge top views. The base rate for this site includes up to four people, there is an extra charge of $25 per day, per person for any extra people. We allow up to 16 campers total but if you're looking to have more please message us and we can talk details. Campers can set up tents just off the deck OR for an extra fee (see Extras), you can rent our new addition, The Cozy Container, for the people that want to be in nature but don't quite want the fuss of pitching a tent. We also allow trailers and small RVs, we just ask that during the wet Winter months, you park in our gravel parking spaces. Connected to The Deck we have another 30ft shipping container converted into a kitchenette and bathroom with toilet and running water. Behind that you'll find an enclosed shower with hot and cold water. We also have 2 grills, propane heaters, coolers and a cornhole set available to rent (see Extras). There is plenty of space to set up multiple tents so this is the perfect spot to wrangle all those friends or family you’ve been missing and enjoy some quality time in nature. The Area: The village of Albion has a well equipped grocery store and deli, as well as a hardware store and post office. There IS gas if you are in a pinch, but we recommend filling up long before you get to the coast, or making the drive up to Fort Bragg for gas. You will also find EV charging stations in Fort Bragg at the Boatyard Shopping center. Drive just 20 minutes North to the village of Mendocino where you'll find plenty of shops and restaurants as well as access to hiking, biking, kayaking, and bird and whale watching. Dogs: We live on the property as a family of four with two young children and two friendly dogs. Our dogs Olive and Blue may greet you when you arrive, and might bark at your car, but rest assured they are friendly and when you get out of your car, call their names and they should come begging for pets. If you're not into dogs, that's totally fine. You can always text us and we will do our best to keep them home. Tenants/Neighbors: We do have one tenant on the property whose rental shares a road with The Deck site so you may see them coming and going, but there is no line of site from their rental to The Deck site. However, being that they are somewhat close we ask that campers be mindful of noise in the evenings and we ask that all amplified music be turned off between the hours of 10pm-7am. Should you have any questions or need any help during your stay, we are just a short walk away and happy to help. We love sharing the beauty of our land and all that the Mendocino Coast has to offer so don't hesitate to ask for our recommendations on all things Mendocino! We hope you enjoy our campsite and all it has to offer and we look forward to hosting you! Alex and Justin Camp next to, and make use of, our large Redwood deck with sweeping ridge top views.

Nice two-day camp at the Deck

Great spot to put up the tent and relax, would have been excellent for a group of more people but was also great just for the 2 of us. The metal fire drum was excellent and the view from the deck was great. The container with the fresh water, toilet, and small kitchenette was a nice bonus. We did get a few visits from one of the family dogs, Blue, but didn't interfere at all. Would recommend!

Beautiful location! Place is well kept and its so peaceful. Stargazing at night is a must! My wife and I love that there's a place to take hot shower. There's a metal shipping container (located on the right side of the deck) that house a clean toilet, kitchen with a sink and mini fridge as well. Definitely will come back and bring the children with us next time. Thank you, Alex & Justin for letting us stay at your gorgeous place. We appreciate you guys addressing all my questions.

The site was spacious and stunning. Sleeping quarters were comfy and warm. The deck was huge and flat. We loved meeting the dogs and the entire site was private.

Top 3 all time camp spot

This is in my top 3 placed I've ever camped and this will be in the rotation going forward. We had a large group of dads and kids and this was the perfect spot for a big group of 12. The hosts were incredibly friendly and have created an amazing space on a gorgeous property.

Our first time at The Deck was a perfect camping experience, and certainly won't be our last. We will never forget the stunning views, peaceful surroundings, and the stars at night. Alex and Justin are great hosts who are friendly and easy to communicate with. The many amenities provided were greatly appreciated. They created a truly special place!
