Unique Hide Away
Such a quiet, unique and truly special little spot. Recommend a 4 wheel drive if the road is at all wet, as our front wheel drive in August was a bit lacking for the drive up (road is very well maintained, just steep). The bathroom was a bonus! Highly recommend for overall ambiance and uniqueness.

Perfect peaceful spot
Great spot! Very peaceful in the woods. Bathroom was a great bonus to have. We only stayed a day because of our plans, but would’ve loved to stay longer!

Redwood stay
This was a great experience in the redwoods! It was beautiful and foggy. It rained a little bit but it was so beautiful and we love the rain. The toilet was a great convenience and the mini hiking trail was a plus. It’s a cute little walk down to a bench!
