Cosumnes River Somerset Camp

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents23 acres · Somerset, CA
This land was home to the Miwok, then European and Chinese miners, then a cattle rancher. It was also home to a former nun who quit the dominican order to purchase this land for inner city kids to have a chance to ride, swim, hike and fish. We moved here in 2017 and purchased this land with the main goal to raise our large family here, but we have found that good things must be shared! There is NOTHING like being in the wilderness of this area for a good re-centering of the soul! We have found it to be a true blessing for our family, and we hope you can experience this blessing as we share this space with you. We feel certain you will not be disappointed with this beautiful river canyon. Our property is situated right on the middle fork cosumnes river. We have 2 sleeping cabins and several tent sites (can be rented separately). The cabins offer a rustic/minimalist type vibe - bring your own bedding/pillows to sleep on the comfy futon. A table and chairs are provided for the cabins. Tent sites have a wood table (bring your camp chairs) and a fire pit when the season is open for burning. The swimming is awesome and the stars at night will put you into a state of awe! Many family owned wineries in the area, most of them offering free tasting. It’s a short drive to Tahoe and the Marshall gold discovery site as well as the historic hangtown Placerville. The recent Caldor Fire was VERY close to our property and a back burn was initiated nearby the cabins. It is still as beautiful as ever but please know there are lots of slash piles. Falling trees and burned up stump holes are also a risk and it is presumed campers will be cautious and use at their own risk. Please don't hesitate to shoot us a message if you have any questions!

Wondernut Farm

4 sites · Lodging37 acres · Big Oak Flat, CA
Wondernut Farm is an upstart, entirely off grid, working farm-stead being built from the ground up. We breed milking goats and sheep, heritage pigs, and are in the process of converting to a grade A dairy and creamery! We use organic practices, management intensive rotational grazing, and dryland pasture management. We sell our animals locally so that others can have their own milking and meat animals. Our 110 year old hay barn and the roof of the former lumber mill were all we had to work with in getting off the ground. Being first and foremost a functional farm, we can't help but offer a somewhat warts-and-all look into everything it takes to be working to our goals. Our hearts are, and always will be, educational and local community focused, and we work closely with farmers and friends alike in better understanding our innovative animal husbandry, power, pasture and water systems. Whenever we have time, we'll afford the same time and opportunities to interested hip-campers. Our location is stunning and historic, and the beauty of the wild, natural landscape is powerful, yet offers easy access to both Yosemite Valley and the San Francisco Bay area. The area features excellent road and mountain biking in the immediate vicinity, vast access to hiking and backpacking trails, a huge variety of rock climbing in the area, the best whitewater rafting in California on the Tuolumne River, with some tasty places to eat or drink coffee in the nearby town of Groveland, just 10 minutes away. Accommodations at the farm are certainly rustic, and private but not secluded, with occasionally heavily project-exploded shared kitchen and living space, showers, and airy flush toilets. Do be advised that animals are pooping, hammers are hammering, sometimes we need to look into a health or animal injury related issue. Sometimes there is blood in an animal birth or slaughter, and our working guardian dogs have been known to be noisy some nights. Water and electricity are both very limited (though we reuse all our water), waste must be carefully sorted into a number of different categories, and there is always evidence of ump-teen projects unfolding at once. The most difficult condition during much of the summer are nuisance flies, which are always gone at night. We have almost no mosquitoes or ticks. Depending on the exact situation and time of year, guests may have the opportunities to snuggle with baby animals and run our herd to or from pasture, and maybe even get their hands dirty picking veggies in the garden.

Cabins near Jackson with climbing guide

Overview

Burrowed in the Sierra Nevada foothills, Jackson, California is a hidden gem that captivates campers. Campers can set up in town at a campsite with full hookups and wifi. Then, take a 2-hour drive to stunning Yosemite National Park, renowned for its waterfalls, hiking trails, and rock formations. Move on to discover the wonders of Eldorado National Forest, where shimmering alpine lakes, majestic forests, and picturesque meadows invite adventure seekers. For more remote beauty, venture to Lake Tahoe, home to an extensive network of hiking and biking trails and skiing opportunities. On-site campgrounds also make it easy to spend the night at nearby natural attractions.

Where to go

Eldorado National Forest

Nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Eldorado National Forest is a favored stop for anglers. Its pristine lakes and rivers teem with trout, bass, and catfish. Campers can also boat, kayak, or canoe to enjoy the serene waters of Union Valley Reservoir or Jenkinson Lake. Or take an off-road adventure through the forest's extensive network of trails, including the challenging terrain of Rubicon Trail. Campgrounds such as Stumpy Meadows, Ice House, and the waterfront Loon Lake site offer a range of amenities for tent and RV campers including picnic tables and firepits.

Yosemite National Park

Two hours from Jackson is Yosemite National Park—full of rich landscapes and abundant outdoor activities. Marvel at the iconic granite cliffs of El Capitan and Half Dome, hike along Mist Trail and Yosemite Falls, or embark on scenic drives to Glacier Point and Tioga Road. After a day exploring, set up at one of the on-site campgrounds that provide tent and RV options, picnic areas, and amenities such as restrooms and water. For a more secluded experience, consider pitching a tent around a campfire at Bridalveil Creek or parking the RV at Hodgdon Meadow.

Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit

Encompassing the stunning Lake Tahoe region, Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit surrounds the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tahoe. Known for cold-water swimming, boating, and fishing in the summer and snowboarding and skiing in the winter, campers can visit year-round for outdoor California fun. Explore the extensive network of hiking and biking trails, such as the famous Tahoe Rim Trail. RVers can set up at campgrounds like Camp Richardson and Nevada Beach Campground. For a winter chalet, try Fallen Leaf Campground to secure a cabin rental.

When to go
