Leslie welcomed me into her home like a friend. I felt comfortable and cared for. Her land was beautiful! The location was perfect not too far of a drive from town and also the Yuba River.
I had a wonderful stay at Leslie’s property! She was extremely welcoming and accommodating. The property itself is beautiful, the herb garden in the evening is especially peaceful and all lit up with a gazebo area to sit. There is also a nice outdoor shower in the garden to rinse off after hiking.
We loved camping on Leslie’s property! She made a rad disc golf course (closed toe shoes recommended if you’re not a great thrower and you often have to chase down your disc). The porta potty was the cleanest I’ve ever used. It was really beautiful and peaceful! We used the grill every meal. Leslie made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond for us! We highly recommend this Hipcamp!
I went with my 2 boys who are 11 and 14 and they had a blast! The host was very friendly and welcomed us upon arrival. Wifi worked, kids loved exploring, trampoline and throwing a few discs. It was a beautiful location and we will definitely be coming back again!!
Interesting camp spots amid deep forests, very close to county roads, trails and local spots. Very friendly hosts who go above and beyond to provide as needed. Travel trailer access is tight- double check with hosts on sizing. Had to cut our trip short and wish we had more time to explore.
I had a great time tent camping here! The property is very quiet and secluded with lots of space to explore and a nice creek to sit and bathe your feet. Leslie was a very helpful and friendly host and even gave me some recommendations for the best hikes in Tahoe National Forest. Nevada City is 20 minutes in the other direction and worth exploring. I will definitely be back, if I get a chance. WARNING: pay attention to the recommendation for 4WD/AWD. The road to the campsite is steep, unpaved and uneven, so make sure that your vehicle is prepared for a little offroading before you book!
