Up Shit creek, Cabin
Nice little spot with a creek which was perfect for my dogs. Real close to Henry Cowell Redwoods Park also. Thor was very hospitable and the chickens and peacocks were a plus!

No mosquitos! Creekside tent camp
Thor is very accommodating and clearly cares about his guests’ experience. He met us upon arrival and helped us pick out a site. He lent us a wagon to haul stuff down to the creekside campsite (just a short 50 meter? walk downhill) and a made sure we had flashlights. There is creek that runs through the property with places to swim, and the sounds of birds and running water are a constant backdrop to the majestic Coastal Redwoods. Chickens and peacocks roam the property (you may be offered some fresh eggs). Thor made a huge community fire every night. It’s underdeveloped land, a work in progress, a live construction site where Thor and co. are living off the grid, off the land and building cabins by hand one at a time from reclaimed and harvested wood and construction materials. It’s authentic, energetic, gorgeous, and large enough to lose yourself. No hot water, port-a-poty (clean well-stocked, and lighted) facilities. Short drive to adorable town Bear Creek, Jenna Sue’s place is a must. I’ll definitely be back and try out one of the heated cabins swimmimg hole.

Awesome location and fun times.
Enjoyed my time at up shit Creek. The host was friendly and very helpful. Fast and reliable Wi-Fi with a awesome location not to far from the town center of boulder Creek.

Pristine, unspoiled loveliness!!
If peaceful, unspoiled beauty is your thing, I highly recommend Up Shit Creek...as a lifelong wiseass I simply couldn't resist the name of the place and boy, I'm glad I didn't. Thor and his lovely father Travis are working hard to make this gorgeous property even better and it shows. I myself adore seeing hardworking men surrounded by power tools and dirtbikes so this was right up my alley. Tranquil, quiet, so pristine...skinny dipping in the early morning, hot shower under the redwoods when sleeping in the cabin, roaring fire waiting when I returned from town. Chickens, peacocks, bunnies...blessedly dark and relaxing. I couldn't be happier that I chose Up Shit Creek. You should, too. I absolutely will be returning. And they're building another cabin on the creek- yay!! ☺️

Great spot! My partner and I decided to book a last minute trip and were not disappointed! We did one night of tent camping and were able to soak up the sun and enjoy the redwoods and creek. Bathroom is a porta-potty but is very well kept. Our spot was pretty secluded from other campers which was nice. Thor and his dad were very friendly and accommodating. Only downside is the communal fire pit if you are introverted like we are but other then that this place was great! Will definitely be visiting again.

Great stay
Thor is a wonderful host! 10/10 patient, understanding, and accommodating. There are also lots of cute chickens and animals at the site.
