~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **PLEASE NOTE** Construction of our new bathrooms will be taking place through January of 2025. Construction will take place between the hours of 7:30am and 5:30pm, Monday through Thursday, and it will be noisy. We apologize for the disruption, but look forward to being able to offer this amenity to our campers in the future! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jug Handle Creek Farm and Nature Center is a nonprofit with a five minute walk to Jug Handle State Reserve, Jug Handle beach and the Ecological Staircase trail. We offer 11 unique campsites with plenty of space and privacy. Each site has two picnic tables, a fire ring, parking for two cars and plenty of space for your tents. Our 33 acres include a native plant nursery, community gardens, forests, meadows, and nature trails. Our site has lots of nature trails, is peaceful and beautiful and just a 5-minute walk to Jug Handle Beach and the Jug Handle Preserve. Our Mission: We offer a welcoming and supportive environment for people of all backgrounds to explore nature and connect with the natural word. Nature stewardship is central to our non-profit mission and as an organization we are engaged in many nature restoration projects throughout Mendocino County. We also provide a supportive learning environment for nature education for disadvantaged youth during the school year. If you teach k-12 and would like to bring your classroom to Jug Handle contact us about special rates and our immersive nature education programs.

We had such a wonderful time staying here! Each camp spot feels quite private and cozy, and the land is very well cared for; it's a beautiful, and quite peaceful place. I look forward to coming back soon!

#7 - Large Sunny Family Spot
Don't go
It looked like it was a construction site , the music was so loud while they were working on new projects . The host was non existent , there were plenty of trails but no information on them . We would have liked to hike them but we didn't know they existed . For the expensive price you have to pay , you have to take your trash out with you , give me a break and buy some dumpsters . Will not return

#2 - Sunny Spot in Meadow
I loved camping at Jughandle’s Land! I stayed at site 2 and it was the perfect size. My friends and I, 4 of us, had a very comfortable stay there and really enjoyed the site. Easy to park and did not feel crowded at all. Amazing place overall, right across the street from a beautiful beach as well

Another great stay!
We love Jughandle! This is our second time camping in the campground and we’ll definitely be back. The spots are nicely spaced out, and the trails to the forest and beach are spectacular. The property is also perfectly centered between the town of Mendocino and Fort Bragg.

We arrived late and left early so didn’t have a whole lot of time for a “vibe check”. But was easy to find, bathroom nearby, tables and a nice flat spot
