Riverside Retreat
Spent one night only. I Loved the cabins, the fire pit, the bbq grill and the access to the river in the property. I will definitely come back next year and stay longer.

Good time 4 adults, 3 kids and dog.
We loved this spot for our family and our friend's family. There was another small group at the nearby large tent location, which could be heard but not seen. The porterpotty was clean and well situated, just far enough that the smell did not waft over. We enjoyed swimming swimming and exploring up and downstream the semi-private oasis. Night time was great stargazing and gathering by the fire pit.
Pros:
1) Plenty of picnic tables (5) one of them was between the cabins, which allowed for more variation in shade.
2) The BBQ grill had a side burner and the property caregiver supplied us with 2 frying pans, a large pot, and a spatula.
3) Extra propane was provided, in case the grill or the firepit ran out.
4) There were plenty of beds, conveniently made with sheets and pillows. The last cabin has large bunk beds and a futon, and we ended up just sleeping in the bunks (parents on bottom, 2 kids on top, leaving the futon as a couch.
5) Property was clean and calm.
Minuses:
1) There was a sink by the other site's porter potties that we only noticed on the way out. We washed our dishes with a team of two people, one holding the bottle and the other washing over the edge of the property.
2) There weren't any trails by the river/creek, so the only way to explore was on top or rocks. This was fun for the parents and the kids, but impossible for some dogs and grandparents.
3) Sleeping was a bit hot. Window and door on same side of cabin. Flannel sheets in the summer did not help.

Private River Oasis
Super Swim Hole!
What an awesome spot to take in some camping time along a creek! The host's accommodations are super helpful having a picnic table, grill & tools, propane fire pit, rest room w/hand wash, giant tent already setup, aaaand kayaks you use. Would love to make our way back again!

The land is beautiful but the cabin smelled like chemicals (think they just built them), was very hot, and the electricity didn't work. Ended up sleeping in my car instead. Granted there was a heat wave so to be expected and there's no cell service down there - otherwise would've let the owner know.

Private River Oasis
5 star California Gem
Our family loved camping at this very private river oasis! Although it was really hot that weekend, the river kept us cool and it was just perfect for our two cattle dog puppies and our 8 yo, he was never bored here! The tent was huge with room for 5-6 people on real beds! The kayaks were so fun for exploring and the water was the perfect temp for swimming. There was a perfect kid sized rock to jump off and bring goggles for the kids so they can see all of the fish! Also; water shoes are a must. We used the provided BBQ both nights. Bring a pop up or two for shade at the campsite and lots of ice as it’s pretty sunny up there. We had visitors join us on the second day and there is a charge of $25 per visitor for day use. It’s worth it though. You will need a 4WD to get to the campsite, it’s a short drive down. Cell service is bad but some messages do come through, if you drive up the hill, you can find service. We really enjoyed the privacy of this beautiful California gem. The only flaw is that the Porta potties were very, very full at the campsite, the one at the top of the hill wasn’t as bad and worth the hike. That being said, I still give this space and this nice host five stars!!!
