Urban Glamping at La Boheme!
2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Los Angeles, CA
This historical 1904 Craftsman home, known as The Liddell "La Boheme" Home, is nestled on 1/2 an acre of land smack in the middle of Los Angeles' hippest, historical gem: Highland Park.
When on the property, surrounded by fruit trees and rolling hills
-- you can't believe you are in a city, let alone Los Angeles! I was introduced to the delights of Glamping at El Capitan in Santa Barbara which was amazing and I wanted to stay there forever!! -- BUT with a busy city life of raising kids and building my own small food business -- I wanted to jump from
Glamp-life to
City-life (and back again)
with more ease and share it with others.
In my opinion, the beauty of So-Cal living is that you can literally spend the morning surfing in Malibu and that same evening find yourself
skiing in Big Bear! (After 25 years of living here -- that reality still amazes me)
To mirror this unique juxtaposition - at La Boheme, you will find a tranquil Safari Tent Glamping experience - with hiking/biking trails and all sorts of outdoor activities anywhere from a 5 minute walk to 30 minutes away by car---- but you can also hop on the Gold Line train (which is a 1 minute walk out the back door) and in choosing one direction, you are a couple of
stops from Chinatown or Downtown LA's rich cultural experiences & exciting nightlife. If you decide to explore
in the other direction, Metro's Gold Line (in 1 stop) will take you
to the heart of Highland Park's bustling scene -
offering a smorgasbord of eateries, coffee-shops,
speakeasies, boutiques, yoga studios
and art galleries - including LA's oldest bowling alley: Highland Park Bowl.
Take the train further and you're in the heart of glorious Pasadena
(home to The Rose Bowl and exceptional Norton Simon Museum)-- or continue out to beautiful Sierra Madre -- where there is
hiking and exploring galore! At La Boheme you
can
grill onsite, order
take-out, dine out, stay-in and book a personal masseuse (that will change your world!) You can find places to
hike, bike, play tennis, come back and shower (with hot water) - enjoy some bubbly with your honey on the deck -- take the train
downtown to catch a concert at the Staples center -- Uber back - light the chiminea -- roast a s'more or two and crawl into your super comfy REAL bed in your REAL Safari Tent!
Remember
-- this is URBAN Glamping -- a friendly reminder that there can be normal city noises throughout your stay -- like a Fire Engine answering a call - or the train running behind the property -- or a kid crying in the apartment next door. It happens. Life happens. Of the several people who have already enjoyed the Glamping experience of La Boheme -- normal city noise/life
hasn't dampened the experience at all-- only made it more intriguing! There is both a fan for air circulation and/or "white noise" as well as a heater, if you should need either of them. Plenty of extra blankets are available as well as a cot if you are a booking for 3 guests. La Boheme also is a venue for weddings and other events -- so we love hosting and want to do whatever we can to make your stay the best it can be for you! Please reach out with any questions or recommendations for the area. If you are new to the area - definitely spend a little time Googling ALL that is available to you - and
I'll do my best to fill any blanks-- ha! Looking forward to meeting and hosting you at La Boheme. - Hillary

Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch
8 sites · RVs, Tents62 acres · Lake Hughes, CA
Run by three generations, our ranch has been in our family for more than 70 years. We opened our doors to the public in 2014 to help support feeding our animals, bred and rescued, after the Powerhouse Fire almost burned us out. We’ve survived a county quarantine(2018-2019), the COVID Lockdowns (2021-2022), the Lake Fire (2020), and the Hurricane Kay burn scar debris flow and flood (9/11/22), depending on hard work and strong family and community bonds. In addition to camping and educational tours, we host private and community events, grow & sell produce and eggs, hatch and sell chicks, rescue ratites, and support the local bee population (which gives us RAW honey to sell), and are working to open a private U-pick-by-appointment orchard. We are all animal lovers, and conservationists, and try to do our part to ensure our children inherit a healthy and viable world. This is our home where we live, work, love, and play. We enjoy sharing our space with visitors who we hope learn about ostrich and make some great memories.

At the end of the point there is a 20ft diameter traditional Mongolian yurt complete with wood fire stove and wraparound deck.

There is plenty of wildlife around the property including deer, bobcats, hawks, owls, ravens, foxes, rabbits, and much more...

The best camping near Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area guide
Overview
About
In the Baldwin Hills, just outside of Culver City, Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area is a great place to get away from the Los Angeles sprawl for the day. Even with no camping allowed, it's a particularly nice spot for hiking, with plenty of trails along with great views out over the city and over to the Hollywood sign. The park is also popular with families, and has multiple playgrounds and picnic areas along with volleyball and basketball courts, two baseball diamonds, an outdoor fitness circuit, and a disc golf course. There's even a fishing lake that's regularly stocked with rainbow trout and catfish.
When to go
The park is open for day use throughout the year, but if you are visiting in the summer months, you're best off coming either early in the morning or just before sunset, when temperatures tend to be cooler and the sun less abrasive. The most pleasant time to visit is in spring and fall, when the weather is warm but not overly hot, though be prepared for overcast days (known as "June gloom") in late spring.
Know before you go
- Dogs are allowed on paved roads in the park, if leashed, but are not permitted on the trails.
- On-site parking is available for a daily fee. Annual parking permits are also available, with discounts for seniors and visitors with disabled parking placards.
- An ADA-accessible shuttle bus runs between the Metro Expo La Cienega Station to Kenneth Hahn State Recreational Area and the nearby Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook, but only on weekends and holidays.
- If you plan to fish in the lake, it's wise to first check about regulations or permit requirements with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
