Cosumnes River Somerset Camp

10 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!

Cabins in Tahoe guide

Overview

Dazzling Lake Tahoe is what draws most visitors to this stretch of the Sierra Nevada, but it’s the additional attractions of the greater Tahoe region that keep them coming back, with many options for a cabin getaway. In South Lake Tahoe, rent a cabin near the lakeshore for boating, jet-skiing, and relaxing on a sandy beach, or head to Truckee, which boasts a lively downtown scene and sits near both the Truckee River and Donner Lake, a smaller lake that’s great for swimming and paddling. In Tahoe National Forest, consider a rustic cabin campground near the South Yuba River for Whitewater rafting, or check out the many small lakes and trails of Eldorado National Forest off Highway 50. In the winter, book a cozy A-frame near the slopes of Kirkwood Mountain Resort for a ski vacation. Most cabins can be rented year-round, but some cabin resorts and campgrounds are open in summer only.
