This property is spectacular with views and great hiking! Learn more about this land: Imagine a place where the songs of red wing blackbirds fill the air.  A place where you can see as far as the ocean to the west, the mountains of Humboldt County to the north, the Mendocino National Forest to the east, and the mountains of Sonoma County to the south.  This is Red Wing Ranch.   While staying at Red Wing Ranch you will have the opportunity to walk on a section of the original stagecoach road, canoe in our private pond, watch the sunset over the Pacific ocean, and star gaze from what feels like a private planetarium. This is perfect for artists, writers, yogis, and those seeking the tranquility of off grid living. We have 40 acres of land with beautiful hiking in every direction. Our campsites have a fire pit, picnic table, and access to an outdoor shower and outdoor kitchen! The accommodation includes staying in a 850 square foot wooden yurt with bamboo floors.  The building has a wooden stove and propane wall heat. We also have a fridge, stove for cooking and propane wall heater inside the yurt. There is a futon that sleeps 2 plus a kids size bed, but please bring sleeping bags or bedding.  You can also put up two tents next to the yurt for more sleeping. We have now added also an attached kitchen and bathroom to the yurt so we have an indoor shower and full kitchen! There is a detached bathroom with a maintenance free composting toilet and simple outdoor kitchen.  You will have access to cooking utensils and cookware, camp stove, and fire pit. There is a solar system so you have access to electricity and wifi. The drive from Willits is 25 minutes, with only the last 5 minutes on a dirt road.  You can do the drive in any car, unless the occasional snowy conditions.  There is plenty of parking next to the yurt for easy unpacking.. To access the coast you do have to go back through Willits and use highway 20.

Stayed their twice, we loved it so much. Views. Sunrise, sunset. The most comfortable bed you'll ever sleep on. Quiet, super dog friendly. What more do you want?

We loved camping at the pondside site. So peaceful and private, it exceeded our expectations. No potable water or shower at this site currently but the pond water was perfect for a swim. Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.

Beautiful swimmable pond. Bathroom, no potable water. A wonderful place to wake up. Perfect distance from the coast to experience warm shelter and fresh ocean breezes.

What a hidden gem, the land and pond are gorgeous. Enjoyed camping here in July, even though it gets hot early. The pond is cool and refreshing. The nearest exit is Willits. I overshot the exit, thinking the ranch was further north. It isn't! You def want to exit at Willits. Hope this helps.
