Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.

Come enjoy the beauty of West Marin on our flat, spacious 1-acre property with a seasonal creek and an expansive ancient Buckeye Tree. At night the "magical" tree is lit with hanging solar-lit mason jars and you can sit and relax in our Adirondack chairs. We offer two distinct sites: 1) a fully electrified, heated, SHED, equipped with wifi/refrigerator/microwave that can sleep two people, and 2) a campsite that can accommodate up to four people in a tent/RV/trailer/van/or car camping. Both spaces have their own picnic table and separate portable toilets. Guests from either site can enjoy lawn games such as bocce ball or corn hole as well as a full-size trampoline. ** Please Note -- This is a family friendly space. You will not have exclusive use of the land; we are a family of four with a friendly dog (a small golden retriever named Orvis, who likes to greet everyone). We live on-site in a small house, about 80ft from the shed and about 80ft from the camping site. We are three miles from Samuel P. Taylor State Park, natural pools at the Inkwells, and miles of hiking. Our property is about 45 minutes from Marin County beaches (Stinson, Bolinas, Limantour), Tomales Bay, Hog Island Oysters, and Pt. Reyes National Seashore. In the opposite direction, we are three miles from Roy's Redwoods and seven miles from Nicasio Valley Cheese Company (plus a seasonal pumpkin patch). This is a wonderful location for relaxing on site or for being a hub for various day-trips in West Marin. Other local amenities include a coffee shop (w/a nice bathroom, 1-mile down the road), a market/deli/burrito shop, a farm stand with local produce, and an amazing Indian restaurant all within 2-miles from the site. A well-behaved dog can stay as well but can not be left unattended. Please note that while West Marin is mostly rural where many homes sit on large acres of land, we are still in a quiet neighborhood setting. No loud parties, no smoking, no loud voices after 9:00 PM.

camping in the heart of Marin Co.

such a treat to stay in this area - there's so much to do near by and yet it feels so remote. excellent proximity to Samuel P Taylor State Park, Tamarancho and Spirit Rock. i stayed in my van and couldn't be happier; the site was easy to access, flat and felt private. although i didn't tour the tiny house, it looked very inviting and would be a great get away spot. the host was very helpful and welcoming. i hope to stay here again some day soon.

The Grateful Shed

Cozy Weekend Getaway

Our stay at the grateful shed was wonderful! Cozy, cute, peaceful and fully stocked. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location of the shed is also great as its near Point Reyes Station. Their dog Orvis was so sweet as well.

The Grateful Shed

We liked this place. A lot. It was as advertised: very sweet, tidy, in a lovely area. The factors that were not so great were the fact that their dog kept pestering us and our dogs and wouldn’t leave us alone. The campers next door also were closer than we thought they would be, noisy, and took up most of the yard. It’s a nice place, but not as peaceful as we’d hoped.

Fun first family camping experience

Loved tent camping on Jenelle’s property. It felt like we were deep in nature with lots of birds, coyotes howling and other fun things to explore. She made us feel welcome when we arrived and we found the welcome packet helpful to find local spots. It was great first camping trip for my toddler. Will definitely be back to this area!

Cozy stay at the Shed

Loved staying the cozy shed on Jenelle’s property. It was easy to access and had just enough amenities like the hot water kettle and Brita filter to make things comfortable. At the same time it felt like we were deep in nature with lots of birds, coyotes howling and other fun things to explore. Will definitely be back to this area!
