There is NOTHING like being in the wilderness of this area for a good re-centering of the soul! We have found it to be a true blessing for our family, and we hope you can experience this blessing as we share this space with you. We feel certain you will not be disappointed with our beautiful river canyon. Our property is situated right on the middle fork Cosumnes river. The swimming is awesome and the stars at night will put you into a state of awe! In the area there are many family owned wineries in the area, most of them offering free tasting! It’s a short drive to Tahoe and the Marshall gold discovery site as well as the historic hangtown Placerville. We are happy to make suggestions for local hiking areas, like the Devil's Slide "Gorge" only a 15 minute drive but like a trip to mini Yosemite. The Caldor Fire was VERY close to our property and a back burn was initiated nearby the our house (literally 200' away!). Our property became a pivotal point of fighting the fire in our community known as the “Ant Hill Army”. Ask us about the story!

Weekend Trip to Camp Nauvoo

We had a great time, the camp was perfect for the family. It was such a treat to camp near the water, our kids spent most the time jumping on rocks and looking for gold. And sleeping to the sound of the creeks running water solidified our return Camp Nauvoo. Also worth mentioning, they have a huge green space for play and relaxing. Plenty of gas bbqs, picnic tables and fire pits for every camp site. No need to over pack like we did. The camp owner, Greg, and hosts, Charlie and Crystal were super helpful and also helped make my daughter's 12th birthday special by leading a happy birthday song and even gave her a sweet birthday 🧁 during the community campfire eve. ❤️

2 nights at Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF

Kelley is a great host. Communication was good. She was available if needed but allowed us our privacy. Pearl is a small Airstream that accommodated 2 adults and dog perfectly. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. The outdoor shower was a few steps away. The setup was clean and water was warm. The forested surrounding are beautiful.

Weekend Trip to The Black Oak Forest

The yurt is very beautiful, the bed is super comfortable, and the kitchen area is super cool. Im glad there was a pot available because we forgot ours haha! The cool shower was very nice! The weather is warm and it was refreshing. My husband, doggo, and I enjoyed our stay here very much.

Weekend Trip to Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF

We visited Kelley's hipcamp as an 18 person group for 3 days/2 nights and had an incredible time! To get the main downside out of the way--there were a lot of mosquitos, which came out in the morning and at mid-afternoon. That said, Kelley has a beautiful property, clean and well appointed facilities for her guests to use, and is an all around incredible camping host. She was flexible, helpful, friendly and kind. We would recommend her hipcamp to anyone looking to camp in the Tahoe NF area!

1 night at Lazy Bear Cabin

Jeff's cabin was great - super cool location and clean and cozy, and a very good value. We loved exploring the areas around the cabin and there is so much to do. Jeff was a helpful host and a cool guy. Definitely recommend a stay to anyone in the area.

Weekend Trip to Foothills Yurt Glamping

Beautiful place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back in a heartbeat. Hot tub worked well and was so relaxing. The lake was gorgeous and only 10 minute drive away. We had such a relaxing weekend!!! Came here to celebrate my birthday and we want to make it an annual trip now. My friends said the futon was very comfortable. Plenty of extra blankets to use as well.

Weekend Trip to Camp Nauvoo

This was our first camping trip as a family and the first time for our daughter. We stayed in the family Miwuk Teepee and it was such a blast. Greg was very kind and accommodating and they have alot to do on site. We explored the trails, the river/creek and swim hole. We even scoped out the next spot we want to stay next time we visit! There was a volleyball net which we used for our badminton set and a swinger which the kids enjoyed. When it was too hot or cold we enjoyed ping pong and board games in the lodge! Would 10/10 recommend!!

Weekend Trip to Camp 🏕 Gold Dust Vineyard

This site was so quiet and peaceful! There were also amazing views down at the end of the road that looked over the valley. We unfortunately did not get to explore much of the area, but Aaron was great about communication and offering different options to take advantage of the stay.

Weekend Trip to Lazy Bear Cabin

As my first Hipcamp stay, it was perfect. Perfect location, easy to find. The surrounding forest was beautiful. The cabin itself set was very nice and cozy. We did our best to keep it the way we found everything. We couldn’t find a sponge so we weren’t able to the dishes but not many were left. It was a great experience.

2 nights at Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF

We had a wonderful stay at Pearl. Kelley’s detailed directions made it super easy to find the place and settle in. Pearl was incredibly cozy, and everything—from the decor to the small details—felt thoughtfully arranged and well cared for. The location was perfect as well. It was conveniently situated between Nevada City and Lake Tahoe, which made it easy for us to explore both during our trip. We also brought our dog, and it was such a great experience. The off-leash space was a huge plus, and our dog had a great time too, which made the stay even more relaxing for us. My wife and I both enjoyed our time here so much that we were already saying we’d love to come back. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you Kelley!

1 night at Cosumnes River Somerset Camp

Absolutely loved every minute of it. The owners are as friendly as they come and their property is a dream to stay on. The cabin was very comfortable and the bathrooms were well maintained and convenient. The sound of flowing river and numerous birds was so pleasant and relaxing. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a quick getaway.

Weekend Trip to Bright Bear Camp in Tahoe NF

Kelley has a cool spot about 40 min from Downtown Nevada City! We loved the cabin- it was modern, SPOTLESSLY clean, and had everything you could need without extra clutter. We were looking to get out of the city, get into nature and do so with minimal packing of gear on our part. This cabin provided the perfect middle-ground experience for us. The bed was super comfortable, we were able to cook a great meal with the kitchen set up, and we enjoyed the luscious green views from inside the cabin. We also loved that Kelley provided coffee grounds and a pour over set up for guests- this felt generous with coffee prices these days. Kelley was friendly, responsive and helpful- she offered to refill the water when we were out for the day which was appreciated. There was an outdoor shower on site, but it’s closer to the main campers set up and we didn’t end up using it for that reason. Try out Kelleys spot and be sure to get some sun and swimming in at the Yuba River nearby!

Weekend Trip to Om Sweet Om Farm

We loved our stay at Om Sweet Om farm. We stayed for 3 nights and Justin was really welcoming and friendly. Their dogs are all super friendly and love to be pet. We also were able to go and visit with their goats and other animals. I'd love to stay here again if we're back in the area!
