This campground just god a major uplift. This used to be called Feel Good Camp and now we dedicate it to the natural green building and clean living. The Grand Opening will be the weekend of the 15th this year. We made our decision based on our love to create an inspiration for arts and creating beautiful buildings using materials that you can find around you such as pallets, clay, sands, straws, etc. Everything is made out of non toxic materials, we even made our own paint out of cooking flours! Being inside these cob buildings feels like being in the womb of Mother Earth: the scent, the calm, the grounding, etc. The woods come from one of our properties and we milled them ourselves. We upcycle almost everything: The tree barks, the branches, even the furnitures were secured from non-profit organizations. We'd like you to come to be inspired! One of the buildings is there as a demonstration site till its done and we'll have the cob builder to be there to show you around. Cob working party is held by a master cob builder. We made your Camping and Glamping experience easy. We provide clean showers, restrooms, toilet paper, paper towels, barbecue, camping stoves, utensils, plates, bowls, mugs, coffee maker, pots and pans, cutleries, etc. Yes, there is hot water as well with no coins needed. The campground is located in a serene oak grove area of the property. Its a peaceful getaway with an abundance of bird varieties and occasional wild turkeys passing through. Take a stroll around our 5-acre property and catch a breathtaking sunset from the hillside. The amenities are: Outdoor kitchen, 2 fire pits, outdoor showers and bathrooms, electricity in each cobin, Board games, Yard Games, dog park and an outdoor library for little ones to grown ups. In Winter 2026 we'll add sauna and outdoor tubs for warm winter experience. Your parking spot is within a very short walking distance and there are wagons for you to use to haul your belongings to your camp site.

Compassion Canvas Tent Site
Beautiful, gorgeous and special. I could tell the owners are Stewards of the Land. Layers and layers of detail on every structure. Blending in raw edge nature with artistic flow. I was very impressed. Our unique lodging was incredible and smelled of wood cedar and clean cotton! My beloved and I had a blessed time and will be returning!

As the name says - Kind and Cozy :)
Be Kind and Cozy tent
My mom came out to visit from Northern Minnesota so I wanted some quiet time out of the city (I live in Oakland) and this was the perfect mix of quiet camping, and convenience. The full outdoor kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfasts and dinners, the beds in the tent were SOO comfortable and cozy, and we got firewood from Julie on our second night and had a wonderful campfire. The sites are close together, so it wouldn't be a place I'd go if I wanted privacy, but everyone there was respectful of quiet hours. Great spot, would definitely go back.

The environment seems quite pleasant, offering a sense of comfort. The cleanliness of the space is truly commendable, contributing to an overall feeling of well-being. The gentle ambiance creates a welcoming atmosphere for all who enter. It's clear that great care is taken to maintain such a delightful setting. Experiencing this kind of environment is truly a pleasure.

I really enjoyed staying in the wagon, especially the mural on the wall. It was a great stop on my road trip. I usually prefer quieter settings, but I didn’t mind the lively atmosphere for one night.

Very well maintained property. Good hosts. Went out of their way to help us with burning coals for our peach cobbler. Very puppy friendly. The hidden outdoor shower was AMAZING. Maybe the best shower I've ever taken.

Integrity Canvas tent
We stayed in the tent and the bed was super comfortable and the accommodations were very clean. With a very social environment other campers were super nice and fun. It was nice hiking in the area, beautiful redwoods. Beach not too far away. Yes, we would like to come back as it’s not too far the getaway from Santa Clara but far enough to feel like you’re getting off the grid. Our camp host was very nice too!

A friendly, well run site.
Be Kind and Cozy tent
A really nice little camp ground with a combination of glampy tents and sites for you to bring your own set up. There’s a good sized, shared, outdoor kitchen with pans, plates etc - most of what you need to cook your meals. Nice clean bathroom and shower stalls. Attentive hosts send you very detailed info before you arrive. You’re at relatively close quarters to your neighbors. We were very lucky with the friendly crowd there this weekend. Well behaved kids and dogs. We had a lovely time.

Our overnight in the Gypsy Train was lovely. Julie met us upon arrival and showed us around. The camping area is well kept with an outdoor kitchen. The camping/glamping sites are in a circle with a fire pit and chairs in the middle for a communal environment. Cornhole and rubber axe throwing target were set up. Board games and puzzles were also available in a big wooden box. There are shade trees and the birds were entertaining. We would love to stay there again.

Your Pop Up Camper @ Feel Good Camp
We did not stay at Feel Good- this review is for The Secret Garden. The Secret Garden was a beautiful property, impressive amenities, and hosts were very friendly. There was confusion with check-in due to changing the property with little notice/communication. We were offered an upgrade but didn’t understand we would be at a different property and had a difficult time trying to find out who the host was. Once unloaded at our site we had a great time and our dog loved exploring the property. We especially enjoyed the almost private kitchen and that we had our own flushing toilet at the site. We could picture doing a large group camping trip with all of the space, extensive facilities, and accommodation options.

Great camp, very family friendly, with full outdoor kitchen, camp fire circles and games for kids. Only issue was showers need some improvement as the water stops to a trickle if anyone uses the toilets or sink and locks don’t work.

Camp description was very accurate! Amenities were as described and location felt far away enough to feel discreet yet close enough to a small town so we could pick up supplies. One thing that was an issue were wasps that kept flying around as we were cooking food, there were 6 around me at one point!

Cool spot but can be crowded
The Green Dragon Wagon
This was a super cool space but think twice if you are planning a romantic getaway. It may have just been the weekend we went but it was packed with families and children. All of the dwelling are close together so it was loud and crowded and not private. Could be awesome if on a less busy weekend or if some friends or other couples were staying.

Great spot to get away to. Still close to a lot of cool places in the central California area. They have everything that you could think of. Forgot a spoon? no problem they have an extra 10. Need to decompress with a shower? They got you with some nice warm water. Just wanted to give a special shout out to Julie! She was awesome and accommodating! She made sure that I had everything since I forgot a couple things. And if you’re lucky you can get a nice pup hug from Dixie.

Empathy tent site
Pros- community kitchen, restrooms and fire pits are great. Showers come with shampoo and soap. Cons- No soap or towels by the sink and there's only one sink. Lights are very low in the restroom area so you have to use a flashlight or headlamp. It's really someone's back yard so there's no where to wander or walk around because you will intrude into their neighbor's property. Quiet time is very strict because noise carries so the manager has to come by every night to tell us to be quiet. There was no clean up of the restrooms or garbage removal for the whole weekend we were there.

Boho Chic Glamping
With pets ·
Compassion Canvas Tent Site
We were pleasantly surprised with the Boho-Chic Compassion Glamping tent. We didn’t know what to expect but we’re happy to find a comfortable bed, warm showers, flushing toilets, and well stocked, outdoor kitchen/BBQ area. It’s a cute camping area with glamping tents on one side and people who brought their own tents on the other side. The RV people were parked on the other side away from the glampers and renters, but still within walking distance of the toilets and showers. In the middle are two large fire pits with about 6-8 chairs around it. You can purchase firewood onsite if you have a Venmo account. We didn’t do a campfire because they were taken and there was only two of us. There are also outdoor games like corn hole and plastic throwing axes to toss at a bullseye target. Check in was smooth with Julie, who was readily communicative via text. When we met her, she pointed us to our parking spot, our glamping tent, the check in QR code, and gave us a tour of the area (3 toilets, 3 showers and kitchen group eating area). She reminded us about quiet time and to drive out slowly upon check out. Then on our own. If you like to sleep early, bring ear plugs because voices carry across the camp (I heard the full on conversation from the renters across the way). If you want to sleep in, bring eye mask because the sun peers through the tent (at least our tent) early in the morning. It was a lovely 1-night stay - so quiet at night once everyone when to bed. We would come back.

Phenomenal first Hipcamp experience

Your Pop Up Camper @ Feel Good Camp
We had such a wonderful first Hipcamp experience thanks to Yeyen and her husband. Due to our late arrival, Yeyen accommodated us in a slightly different spot, which ended up being beyond anything we ever envisioned. (We stayed in a spot for campervans and RVs.) Communication was excellent, the amenities and offerings were fabulous, and everything exceeded what we imagined. We can’t wait to return.
