So much yes!!!
This is the type of place you hope won’t get too hyped that you can’t book, but you also want the owners to do well so you can come back and enjoy it for years to come!
This was our first time glamping and it makes me never want to go back to regular camping!
We stayed in Ponderosa/king with our dog. The hosts put so much lovely detail into the space and created such an awesome vibe.
There was a table with chairs under an ez-up, and a sink nearby to wash dishes. The bathroom was a little far away, but that’s the only “complaint,” if you could call it that. The campsites were spaced out nicely so we felt like we had plenty of privacy. The hosts were very responsive and made us feel welcome.
We spent the day at Fuller Lake, the emerald pools, and enjoyed the mornings and evenings at camp. The outdoor shower was lovely after a day at the lake. I loved being able to freshen up before grabbing dinner in downtown Grass Valley.
We didn’t try the hot tub or cold plunge because our schedule didn’t permit, but I’d love to come back soon to bask at the stars in the tub.
Ellie + Jack, thank you for curating such an awesome place for us to enjoy!

We had such a lovely time at this site. Everything was as it seemed from the pictures and descriptions. The tub and plunge were wonderful. Comfortable beds and super peaceful the whole time.

Amazing Weekend Getaway Spot
Had an amazing weekend getaway at Ellie and Jack's glamping site. Saw so many stars at night and deers during the day. The tent bed was very comfy. The nearby Nevada City town had a great vibe; we were lucky to catch the Saturday morning farmer's market.
The hot tube was amazing. I also tried the composite toilet for the first time, which was kept very clean.
Ellie and Jack were also very responsive to my questions. Overall, it was an amazing stay.
Only improvement desired was maybe abit more privacy for the outdoor shower. One side of it was completely opened.

Such a great spot and hosts that have thought of all the details! I was able to relax immediately and enjoy being amongst the trees and stars.

Yurt was much nicer than mere glamping. Hot tub, cold plunge, and outdoor shower are treats. Even the composting toilet had a nice view. Quiet and serene.

We had a great time during our two night stay at Ellie and Jack's! We decided to book last minute with our two kids - baby and 4 year old. We wanted to camp, but didn't want to deal with the setting up and taking down this time.. and so their place was a perfect in between! The tent was spacious, clean and comfortable and definitely met our needs. The hot tub and cold plunge were a plus and outdoor shower was fun as well. The area is quiet and also located conveniently a short drive to downtown as well as the river. I hope we get a chance to stay again!
