Camping in the Redwoods
We had such an enjoyable time at Sunny’s!
We arrived later than intended and it was getting dark. Sunny was so accommodating and helpful in making sure we got in safely and soundly!! I’d recommend arriving in the daylight as the roads can be windy and the service is spotty on the drive. However even without service we had all the info we need to get there!
The site was perfectly tucked away and private but offered enough to be comfortable including an outdoor toilet and a hose with spring water!! The campsite was large and with Sunny’s help we got a perfect little fire ring set up. Sunny had two dogs on the property and some chickens and ducks and so many fun things! We have a tiny little adventurous dog and she got along so well with Chloe & Echo!
Sunny had some great recommendations on places to see up in Mendocino or the best wineries to check out. We also just loved getting to see everything she’s put together on her land and to be a part of the off grid living!!!
Private Group, Family Camp Or Solo!
Sunny was incredibly kind and welcoming and it was beautiful up there! Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves, but there is some room for improvement.
The site is very difficult to find and there is no phone service. I would have appreciated more communication beforehand as directions were unclear and we ended up spending 30 minutes searching for Sunny’s house.
The site was not accessible by car which is fine, however that information needs to be included in the listing, not disclosed upon arrival.
Sunny also mentioned that her neighbors up the road were old and that she was trying to keep campers on the “DL”, which made for a bit of an uncomfortable stay.

Highly recommend
Sunny was amazing! Our kids loved to see the chicken, played with her kids and got a chance to use the playground.
Our campsite was the top ridge one, we got to enjoy amazing views, had access to a little sink that was great to do the dishes.
Sunny and her family were so welcoming, we even got altogether for s’mores around a bonfire

Relaxing place in the redwoods
Sunnyland campground is a very very nice place. The location is gorgeous! It feels wild but it has all you need. We camp on a site where you have your privacy, covered by the trees, but still with an amazing view on the redwoods.
Sunny gave us perfect infos to get there, she is an amazing host, very welcoming, gentle and fun. Her 2 kids are wonderful and they helped us setting our things, and they explained us everything about the campground. They are sweet and made our stay very joyful. They have 2 beautiful sweet dogs that walk around in the night, making sure that other animals stay away from the tents (for a scared person like me they were essencial!!! :D ).
The place has also some trails for hike very well signed.
Sunnyland is perfect for relax, you can hear any noise but birds.

the site is really cozy. it is close to the house, and the chicken/duck coop, so folks looking for more isolation should consider the lower site. but the view is great and the drive into mendecino is lovely

Best view and sustainability
Sunny's place is the perfect intimate redwood getaway! Wonderful for those with children or those wanting exposure to sustainable off-grid living. Great small hikes around the property with spring creeks and plenty of plant life. This location is nestled around so many great hiking and nature destinations which makes it even more ideal!
The farm animals are always a pleasure and there's two very sweet & friendly dogs that are happy accompany you in hikes around the property.
Did I mention the view?!
