· Nevada City, Nevada, California

3 acres hosted by Wendy And Corbett R.

You will be camping on what was previously called "Tent City." This 3 acre meadow was previously inhabited by those seeking riches during the 49'er Gold Rush. After a hard day of gold panning in the local creeks and rivers, they would treat themselves to an evening of debauchery in the saloons of Nevada City and the nearby Selby Hotel. It has been a working flower farm for the past 10 years. Learn more about this land: Location, location, location!

The Flamingo Flower Farm

Upon arrival at The Flamingo Flower Farm we were greeted by the owners with …. a refreshingly cold lemonade! This truly was one of a kind “welcome” and ohhh so greatly appreciated on a hot summer day! Wendy and Corbett are the nicest people you will ever meet: hospitable, easygoing, kind, and will go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Just to name a few perks: we had a 5 gallon water cooler full of iced drinking water at our camp site, we had a clean picnic table with an umbrella for shade and … and … and a bouquet of freshly picked flowers on the table! Our days were filled with nearby hikes from Cascade Canal trail in Nevada City to Summit Lake trail in Truckee and just few minutes away from the camp, we enjoyed exploring Empire Mine, largest gold mining complex in California. In the evenings we played a corn toss game that was conveniently located at our site (blue bean bags are the winners =)
