Magical forest paradise
My daughter and I had the best time. The photos really don't do the site justice. It's beautiful, the forest is truly magical, and with so many different cools swings and string lights. Julie and Ray were such warm hosts, showed us around, built us a fire, and even share some history about the site. We hope to go back again and again.

Bella Friends/Family Site -site 3/4
The Worst Campsite Ever
We booked the Bella Friends/Family Site - Site 3/4 ten days prior to our camping date. Since we don't own much camping gear, we carefully chose and booked a site that provided a tent and chairs, and we even confirmed that these would be available for us to use. They assured us it would be. However, upon arrival to check in on the day of our reservation, we were told that we could no longer use the site we had booked. The reason? The family who stayed there the previous night decided to extend their stay by one more day.
We were shocked to learn that despite booking ten days in advance, our reservation was canceled simply because someone extended their stay a day before. They offered us another site, but it had no tent, no chairs—just an empty plot of land. We repeatedly asked why we, who had booked first and paid in full, were being denied our site, but they only responded with an offer of a refund.
Due to this outrageous situation, we ended up wasting our precious weekend. We will never re-visit to this campsite, and we strongly advise others considering a visit to be aware of this issue. Even if you book in advance, there's a chance you won't get to use the site you reserved! We highly recommend avoiding this place—your weekend is too valuable.

Beautiful space, hosts were great, the complementary breakfast was delicious! Loved all the amenities like the fire pit, hammocks, chairs, outdoor shower and grill, as well as kitchen and bathroom indoors. Loved meeting Bella too 🐕

Enchanted gateway
This place is something else! Beautiful magical environment and lovely unexpected accommodations by the hosts they make and extra effort to make you feel at home.
There is a beautiful hike around the area and so many beautiful nested lounge spaces around the property to feel as if you are in an enchanted realm, surrounded by the big redwoods giants!
Julie and Ray are stellar!!

Camping with banana slugs!
The walk to the ocean lookout and proximity to the general store was really nice. Loved all the trees and the location was great, was a 30 minute drive from the ocean.

Very nice property with parking for our camper van. The welcoming hosts have done a lot of work on the property and the trees are absolutely beautiful.
