Hey there!  I'm a single dad with 2 teen-kids, medical professional, who enjoys country living and sharing it with others.  I've lived in far-Northern CA and Southern Oregon my whole life, except for school/training, so State of Jefferson is my home.  We bought this land in 2017, when it was just brush, poison oak, and a rotten bridge.    Learn more about this land: Campsite on 72 acres along beautiful Jumpoff Joe Creek.  Shaded, adjacent to romantically lighted timber-frame private covered bridge (no traffic).  Very secluded, but only 1/2 mile from I-5 (no freeway noise, though).  Private "beach" area and kid-friendly water play area with wild creatures (turkey, deer, fish, crayfish, water striders, turtles, frogs, etc.). Picnic table, tent spots, and fresh water spigot.  Short hiking trails (watch out for poison oak!).  Best for tenting, smaller RV's, tree tents, or rooftop tents.  >100 yards from nearest structure. 3 nights max except by private arrangement.    NO smoking/vaping/marijuana.  NO wood fires, but propane fire-ring is available -- bring your own propane tank or pay $5 extra to use my propane tank if available.  Good cell service from Google Fi/USCellular.  WiFi available on porch of owner's house by request. Private single campsite on 72 acres along beautiful Jumpoff Joe Creek.  Shaded, adjacent to romantically lighted timber-frame private covered bridge (no traffic).  Very secluded, but only 1/2 mile from I-5 (no freeway noise, though).  Private "beach" area and kid-friendly water play area with wild creatures (turkey, deer, fish, crayfish, water striders, turtles, frogs, etc.).

Beautiful, quiet retreat. We only stayed for a night but walking along the bridge in the morning was peaceful and stunning. Bathroom was very clean.

Incredible!!
My husband and I have been all over in our converted bus and this place, was by far, one of our absolute favorite places!!!! Soooo private, well equipped, awesome setup, gorgeous trees and a beautiful bridge, on a beautiful (good sized) creek, with the most beautiful and relaxing atmosphere we could have hoped for. We were able to really enjoy nature and it felt so peaceful that it was hard for us to leave. 😊 We can’t wait to come back again!!!!

The camp site was beautiful, and better than expected. It was quiet and comfortable. We even saw a flock of wild turkeys come through on Sunday morning.

Beautiful little hideaway. Easy to access, but off the beaten path just enough. Almost flat parking spot for my camper van and really nice clean portapotti and propane shower. The creek is idyllic, and it was lovely to hear it bubbling all night. Some fun stuff for my tweens to climb around on too! Well def be back :)
