The historic Pine Grove Cobb Resort offers a unique lodging and event location in the beautiful Northern California Mountains, 30 minutes from California’s wine country. Ideal for family reunions, group retreats and relaxing private getaways, we offer sleeping accommodations for up to 30 people and room for many more to camp, gather and celebrate.
Commune with nature at Pine Grove Cobb Resort, nestled in 30 acres of the Northern California Mayacamas Mountain Range. Take a walk through the property, cool off in the year-round Cobb Creek or take a dip in the Mountain Spring water, non-chlorinated pool. Get ready to enjoy wood fired pizza and other delectable treats from our Cob Pizza Oven which is the perfect spot to enjoy a cozy evening with family and friends.
The property also offers a large chlorinated swimming pool with diving board, water slide and kiddy pools. In summer season a poolside grill serves up yummy food. We have cabins, glamping and group tent camping available - as well as our Sanctuary Treehouse, a Hipcamp favorite.
The campsite offers a mixed experience. Many guests appreciate the clean, well-stocked cabins and the natural setting by the creek. Highlights include the treehouse accommodations and amenities like a pool and private bathrooms, which are praised for their cleanliness. However, the presence of permanent residents and some rundown areas have left others feeling disappointed, impacting the expected 'camping vibe'.
Joe, the host, was very kind and accommodating. He made the check in process very easy. The cabin was super clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. That said, we wouldn't return.
The cabin is within an area with other cabins (homes?), many of which are occupied by permanent residents. There are random items/junk throughout the property, and sadly along the creek. There didn't appear to be an area for a campfire and there definitely wasn't a camping vibe (no other campers around, no fire pits, mostly just permanent residents inside with barking dogs). It was more of an Airbnb within an outdoorsy mobile home park than a cabin in the woods. The cabin next to us was covered in tarps and red caution tape, with a windowless white van parked in front of it.
I think it could have been a comfortable place to stay had we been more aware of what the environment was really like. We were expecting a cabin in the woods, and that's not really what it was. We ended up leaving early as we thought we'd be more comfortable back at home.
This is our second time (this summer!) staying at Big Leaf Creek side cabin with Joe. Both times, the cabin was incredibly well stocked: think toys for the kids, coffee, olive oil and fresh eggs! The bed and bedding were comfortable and the room gets pretty dark to ensure a great nights sleep.
The property sits creekside from fresh run-off and has two swimming pools available. The food offered poolside was great! High points for having great lumpia and my son loved the mini corndogs.
The only thing I would change is heating the swimming pool. There is a fresh water pool that is freezing and the pool is similar in temp. Even on a 90* day, it was hard to be in the pool for more than a few moments.
I love the glamping tent set up and the ambiance. My family and I had a peaceful but enjoyable stay. My kids loved the pool. Very relaxing place, the bathroom is modernized and clean. Sir Joe was so nice to us. Will definitely recommend the place. Can I just add there's also a nearby gas station and grocery store. 💓
A truly private sanctuary tree house just like the title alludes too. A private creek beach perfect for chilling and keeping cool with or without furry friends. Public pool w/ good food at the grill. Tree house was not too hot even at a high of 105 during my stay.
