About Creekside Camping and Mineral Baths
We can accommodate tent campers or car campers. Each campsite fits 4-6 people. The price is $40/per person. Kids under 12 are free. Most campsites are accessible by car and all campsites are accessible by foot. PLEASE NOTE, we do not have a traditional check in procedure. Campsites are first come first serve. Expect a "self-check in process" most of the time. However, there are sometimes people working onsite that you may run into, that are happy to help and lead you in the right direction. You choose your own campsite so plan to arrive early. You can park and walk around. There is signage that says "CAMP" with Arrows. BYO water. We have sulfur spring water. Great for your skin, not good to drink! There's a couple outhouses on the property. One in the main camp zone, one at the far north end of the lower Redwood campsite. You can also bring a shovel and take a walk if you're in the more remote campsites. We have a dumpster outside the gate for your garbage. IMPORTANT INFO Please don't mind our farm junk/tools as you enterGate 1! We are slowly working on clean up and relocation of materials from the entry road and away from view. Before you arrive, have knowledge of poison oak because it is a native plant. The main photos in the listing are taken from Hipcamp Scouts back in 2018 and they are featuring our Original campsite. This is located past the mineral baths. It's the furthest one to reach, and accessible by foot. I will update photos to depict all the campsites, but please share your photos with us on Instagram and tag @charanspringsfarm to help future campers get a view of what the sites look like with a tent set up! SULFUR MINERAL BATHS Include in your experience the use of our sulfur mineral baths. It's $10 per person. PLEASE BOOK THIS AS AN EXTRA AT CHECKOUT. The mineral baths are 2 funky vintage clawfoot tubs that are pictured in the actual listing.The photos show an accurate description of the Mineral Baths. They are not located in the main camp zone. Please call ahead to book your time slot and get directions to the mineral baths. PLEASE DO NOT BOOK IF: You are looking for "Glamping," (Glamour Camping). It's primitive camping on a private property with bonuses like the garden, rustic baths, and beautiful nature. This property has been a working farm for decades, which has struggled with hard times. If farm yards/junk piles make you uncomfortable or give you a creepy feeling, don't book because our boneyard is adjacent to the entry road and it can't be ignored. Thank you for reading this whole description and we hope you have a good experience.

[hipcamp aggregate summary]
Such a special spot! We listened to the creek bubbling and enjoyed the trees and safety and quiet! Highly recommend!
Super great spot to camp. Very friendly hosts and a lot of cool options for camping. The land is very beautiful - the pictures dont do it justice! Camp here of you can
Camped with my 10 yr old granddaughter. Cool place. We enjoyed the hot tubs (not as bad as they look in pic). Didn't meet Micheal (owner) but Rob that cares for the place was awesome! Very nice. Only thing was not bathroom ( the outhouse was bad!)
Rob provided an excellent tour of the grounds, creek and fruit trees. The mineral bath was magical under the illumination of a quarter moon.
Description is accurate. You are not getting anything fancy. Things are kind of worn out and pretty messy. Theres an outside flushing toilet but the water to it was turned off so I had to find a bucket to fill with water to flush. We paid for the "mineral bath" (which is just a bathtub and some bath salts) but the water to the baths wouldn't work... In general, it was fine. Beautiful area.
