2-wheel drive accessible 2 miles up a dirt road. This is an example of a back to the land movement homestead. You can grab an apple, pear, plum, and some eggs. Drive through majestic redwoods and above as you ascend the 2 miles of dirt road to get here. There is much political, musical, and environmental history behind this land which we can share when you arrive.

Site 1 - So. Humboldt Homestead Near Town
lovely spot and host, spartan site
Darryl is lovely and his property is way up there in the hills above redway. He gave me a little tour around the property and a bagful of delicious pears from his trees. No complaints. the only reason I give an "OK" as opposed to fantastic is paying $50 + fees ($65) to pitch a tent in an orchard, with a spigot, a (clean, unsmelly) composting toilet and a table with chairs. this is my first HipCamp so I dont know what to expect value::price, and it was a holiday weekend so my options were limited. If I had my druthers Id take a morie developed campground with mroe facilities (for less $) in the redwoods, or go back country for $0 and expect zero infrastructure

Tent camping by the apple trees!
Beautiful bit of land for camping! There are permanent residents nearby, but the site felt very private. Darryl gave us a great tour of the property on arrival, you can tell he puts a lot of love into the land. Close to town but far enough off the beaten track to get some peace and quiet with the trees. Lots of turkeys and deer but not bothersome. Great stargazing too!

Great All Around
The site was absolutely wonderful. The hosts were incredibly nice and easy to talk to, and the camping site was gorgeous and close to cool native wildlife. I couldn’t have asked for more.

This is one of the best places I have stayed. Darryl was so kind, he meets his guests, and offered me fruit from his garden and orchard. It has a fun vibe, lots of colorful art on the buildings. Thank you Darryl.

Very Sweet Spot in the Mountains
Darryl was a very welcoming host at his beautiful peaceful land! Sleeping in a quite orchard with a sweet cat romping around was very restful. Darryl was very accommodating and kind.
