## Overview

Single campsite on 72 acres along beautiful Jumpoff Joe Creek.  Shaded, adjacent to romantically lighted timber-frame private covered bridge (no traffic).  Very secluded, but only 1/2 mile from I-5 (no freeway noise, though).  Private "beach" area and kid-friendly water play area with wild creatures (turkey, deer, fish, crayfish, water striders, turtles, frogs, etc.). Picnic table, tent spots, and fresh water spigot.  Short hiking trails (watch out for poison oak!).  Best for tenting, smaller RV's, tree tents, or rooftop tents.  About 100 yards from nearest structure. 3 nights max except by private arrangement.    NO smoking/vaping/marijuana.  NO wood fires, but propane fire-ring is available -- bring your own propane tank or pay $5 extra to use my propane tank if available.  Good cell service from Google Fi/USCellular.  WiFi available on porch of owner's house by request.

Hey there! 

I'm a single dad with 2 teen-kids, medical professional, who enjoys country living and sharing it with others. 

I've

lived in far-Northern CA and Southern Oregon my whole life, except for school/training, so State of Jefferson is

my home. 

We bought this land in 2017, when it was just brush, poison oak, and a rotten bridge.

> Amazing host, we had a great time! Marcus was even able to come give us more propane late at night. And we had cell service with t mobile the entire time

> Take Exit 66!! Follow the host's direction. Coming from North, we took a Google maps exit seventy-something, and though we made it there, it was a very scary multi-mile pot-hole back road. This was a nice semi-private spot. Enjoyed the view of the stars, gentle river sound, and bench, picnic table & potable water. Also recommend to bring eye covering to sleep, as the ambiance lights on the bridge, while helpful for wayfinding, stay on at night.

> Easy access from I-5! We needed a private campsite to stay at for 1 night on our way home from California. We were hauling a dirt bike and didnt want to stay at the state park nearby. This campsite was private and gorgeous! We felt safe and really enjoyed the creek and fire pit. Marcus quickly came down to replace the empty propane tank and light it up for us. His daughter came and asked if my kids wanted to try the zip line and my daughter really liked that! We will recommend this campsite to our family and friends. The kids caught MANY crawfish at night with headlamps and had so much fun for…
