1 night at Gomde Buddhist Meditation Center

Great spot to park my van overnight! Joseph was easy to communicate with and welcoming. The sight was easy to get to and having access to a hot shower was amazing during the cold rain. It was nice to sleep among the trees, would recommend!

Weekend Trip to Comptche Matrix @ Sunny-land

One of the best places I've stayed. I usually tent camp, but the lodging experience was tremendously out of this world. The host is such a beautiful person inside and out. She's very attentive and is there for whatever you need. The views from all of the areas I explored were breathtaking. The uniqueness of this place gives it the best charm. I definitely will be coming back. Even just to say hi to her and her family. They truly are wonderful.

3 nights at Root's End

Lovely private spot with a lot of tree coverage. This is probably the most private spot of the camp sites with the Fisherman's shack being the second most private. We loved falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, our stay was great!

This spot is slightly more exposed than the tent site, which makes sense since you can drive your camper right in! It's well maintained and still fairly private as you face into the wooded area. Loved the fire pits and the peaceful vibe!

1 night at Gomde Buddhist Meditation Center

We were so grateful for Joseph hosting us! We got a sweet little spot on a really well-maintained and very secure location. The bathrooms and showers were very clean. We really appreciated getting to take a hot shower on a chilly morning. We would absolutely return again!

Weekend Trip to Root's End

This was our 2nd time staying here. It was a wet weekend that kept others away so felt very private. Listen to the ocean in the background. Relax in the trees. Appreciate having a trash can--as I mentioned last time, it's amazing how hard it is to find a place to deposit your trash in the area. Love the outdoor compost toilet. And the proximity to Big River and nearby hiking and mountain biking.

3 nights at Private Acreage on the Pacific

We enjoyed the beautiful location. The bike path to town was great. Great having the beach so close

1 night at Root's End

We loved our stay amongst the redwoods! We would absolutely stay again. The tiny house is comfortable and the kitchenette well-stocked with dining ware and tools for cooking. We loved the string lights. The only thing to note is that the tiny house is very close to the main house and there is very little privacy.

Weekend Trip to Gomde Buddhist Meditation Center

Gomde is a great place for a solo retreat from everyday life! The grounds are peaceful and the cabins are spotless, cozy and have everything you need to relax into your surroundings. I disconnected from work and instead immersed myself in nature, read, wrote, meditated and napped. I will make this place a regular for a digital detox.

Beautiful little spot! And surprisingly insulated, especially during the winter! The camp came with free fire wood, and the bathroom was very clean. Highly recommend!!!

What a great place to stay and the hosts are amazing, they made sure that we had all we needed and that there was space enough for all our rigs. We will definitely be staying here again!

1 night at Root's End

Molly's place was awesome - ft. a fully stocked little firewood hut, and a super clean composting toilet. The woods tent site felt super private and beautiful despite being so close to town. Definitely would come again!

Weekend Trip to Root's End

It's a great little place. It was raining the whole time we were there and it was rather majestic sounding in the tiny house.

Great secluded camp site only a few minutes from Mendocino! The owner was very responsive and accommodating.
