[hipcamp aggregate summary]
Great spot. Super convenient. Hosts very accommodating. Quiet.
This is our second stay at Peaceful Pines in Nevada City. This Hipcamp RV site is quite convenient for us as well as quiet and peaceful. The site itself is flat, relatively private, and comfortable. The weather during our stay was quite windy and rainy, so we didn't spend any time outside, but we felt quite safe and comfortable. Yes, I highly recommend this Hipcamp.
Just a perfect spot for our camper and our dog - sunny & shady, peaceful and serene, close enough to town to ride our e-bikes yet acres of land with tall pines to feel you’re in the country. No airplane noise, no hwy noise and barely road noise - a lot to do in town and around the area, so much so that we extended stay and booked another 4 days in June. Host was available for questions & recommendation's and very pleasant - can’t wait to visit again.
The site was quiet overnight, and we managed to find a flat spot in the mowed field (behind the host’s home).. Appreciated access to a water tap. Otherwise little value for the price. Next time we’ll find a place to boondocks.
It was nice enough. Shady and with a surprising bonus of a running man-made creek just close by! Nice owners. It’s just behind the owner’s house
