I loved everything about my stay, I even added an extra an night! Felicha and her family are absolutely wonderful and they went out of their way to make me feel welcome. If you're looking for a clean, safe and private place to land while in the area, THIS IS IT! I feel very fortunate to find this super affordable little gem and I can't wait for my next visit!
Stayed at the site last weekend . Very comfortable and relatively quiet . Washing up area was very convenient ! There was a firepit with wood provided which was a nice surprise ! Excellent location for visiting Sonora, Columbia , and Murphy’s . Nice hiking nearby also .
Nice simple campground. Close to Columbia. Really enjoyed ourselves.
Best hidden camp site ever. Host was very helpful and made sure we have an enjoyable stay..I'll for sure be back
Very nice. Welcoming vacation spot. We were only there for one night because it was a cheap option. Had no idea it was like that. Would definitely stay again for longer next time.
We loved Felicha's place! Quiet, great location and beautiful scenery. In Columbia and close to Sonora, Jamestown, several caverns and the sequoias. The wash station comes real handy and the campfire made our nights unforgettable. Felicia responded in a timely manner and gave us firewood. We'll definitely stay again!
