Weekend Trip to Camp SourBerry (near Yosemite)

Had a great experience at Camp SourBerry! Very nice pull through campsite with trees all around and a small meadow right next to visit. We were visited by some pretty cool wild turkeys on the first day. It is only minutes from town, but it feels like miles away. Easy to get to and find as well. I highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Nolla A-Frames Near Yosemite

Such a cozy modern basic glamping cabin, exactly as expected. * Super clean and new * Gorgeous east facing views (sunrise!) * Quiet aside from the river nearby — far enough from the main road that you don’t hear traffic * Close to west Yosemite NP boarder, under an hour drive to the Yosemite Valley loop roads. * Directions were helpful, including the details once I turned off the main road. * RAV4 SUV rental made it up the dirt road easily. * Cabin 3 is close to Cabin 2, but angled in such a way that both have privacy unless someone is going wayyyy out of their way to be a creeper and stand in front of the other cabin’s large window (ew, who would?) * For AT&T cell service, expect zero bars — occasionally one bar outside in certain spots briefly. So solid location to disconnect with tech and relax. * Short drive to nearby small town (Groveland?) with some basic restaurants, gas station, etc

Weekend Trip to Nolla A-Frames Near Yosemite

Liza and Tom’s place is a true glamping experience close to the beautiful Yosemite. The stay was truly unique with modern style A frame. We loved every second of our time here! The glass wall is a perfect touch that allows you to stargaze in comfort at night time. The property was just the right amount of secluded and private. A huge plus for having a private bathroom and even showers at their sister property. Book this property, you won’t regret it.

Weekend Trip to Yosemite Colfax Spring

Absolutely beautiful site, amazing views! Only critic I have is that I wish there was a bit more separation between campsites for optimal privacy but it was not a dealbreaker and would certainly come back again. Hosts were great!

5 nights at Red Tail Ranch at Yosemite

Site was gorgeous, hookups were some of the best we’ve had (how they were situated). We overlooked the gorgeous natural area and watched the sun set over it each night. Top-notch facilities including very, very clean real working toilets, outdoor showers and more facilities. Great Hipcamp signage! Other items of note - we ate at Tangled Hearts Cafe and highly recommend it for any meal - great fresh, local food. In addition to enjoying Yosemite, we walked one of the paths in the nearby Stanislaus National Forest which allows leashed dogs on trail and loved it. We were really able to relax and enjoy Robb’s property! He is a fantastic, responsive and very knowledgeable host who knows Yosemite intimately! We are already trying to figure out how to come back….

1 night at Camp SourBerry (near Yosemite)

Stayed 2 nights 20 minutes from south entrance to Yosemite. Set up on a hill with mountain views and it was very quiet. The wildflowers were beautiful. Chelsea was quick to reply and checked in to see if we needed anything. As a bonus we got to hold their newborn baby lambs!

1 night at Nolla A-Frames Near Yosemite

I loved staying in the A-frames near Yosemite. Such an easy stay & check in and absolutely spectacular views from inside and outside the hut. The perfect in between for someone who doesn’t want to / doesn’t have the supplies to tent camp but still wants the nature experience. It was truly incredible to fall asleep whilst looking up at the starry night sky. 1000/10 recommend & hoping I make it back soon!

Weekend Trip to Glitter Cove Retreat

Loved our stay at glitter cove. Our host Cindy was very nice and helpful. The place was very well maintained and we had everything to relax and spend our weekend in 52acres of absolute serenity.

Weekend Trip to Nolla A-Frames Near Yosemite

We had an awesome stay in Liza & Tom’s cabins! The site is very private and beautiful, with everything you need. We’ll definitely be back!!

1 night at Musick Creek Falls

This place was so cool! The waterfall was beautiful and the host was more than helpful and super welcoming and friendly. Really fun place to hangout, we will definitely be back and hoping to bring some friends!

Amazing! Stayed in cabin, close to all things Yosemite. Great deal, nice place with bathroom and hot shower. Cute animals around and nice owners

Weekend Trip to Diamond Gulch

Great setting. Though we didn't want to jump on the internet but had full 5g service as well! Nice for streaming some classic movies for the kids.

Weekend Trip to Gumboot placer gold claim

We loved camping here and had a wonderful time (despite the rain!) we most definitely will be back. I do wish previous people were better at picking up after themselves, but despite that, it was a fun area for our family to explore and enjoy! Our toddler enjoyed every minute and all the playing had him sleeping soundly through the night. Our dog loved playing fetch and roaming through the trees. My fiancée and I were able to relax with the sound of the beautiful river and have fun as a family.

Weekend Trip to Gumboot placer gold claim

I love this spot. It's a beautiful spot next to the river and I will definitely check it out again. Its very private and down a dirt road with many potholes so bring a car that won't scrape. They being said this spot shows just how bad the fires were. All the big trees are burned. There are little ones slowly growing and we are looking forward to seeing them grow with each visit. One warning is that all around the camp ground is human poop and toilet paper. And I mean EVERYWHERE. Anywhere you go outside of the flat spots to camp has poop and toilet paper that previous guests left. People please do better and pick up after yourself. Or at least bury your poop/toilet paper. This is an amazing spot to get away. Please pick up after yourself. I tried to clean all the trash I could but I wasn't about to touch the toilet paper others left. If you go please help clean so we can continue to rent this spot

3 nights at Diamond Gulch

This campsite & John, the host, was great! If you’re camping as a couple or as a family with kids, this is the perfect place for both. Access to potable water throughout the campground, frequently serviced portapottys, and steaming hot showers. The campground sits on his approximately 800 acres of property with dozens of cows freely roaming right outside the campground enclosure. The best part about this campground is how secluded the campground feels how close it is to a city. The drive to town is 15 minutes more or less, but you don’t feel like you’re that close to a city because it’s so quiet and the only property you see surrounding the area is that of the owners My family and I will definitely be coming back here in the future

3 nights at Glitter Cove Retreat

We had a great time at Glitter Cove! The dogs were able to explore, swim, and run to their hearts content. Cindy was the best host! Excellent directions and all the necessities were there waiting for us. The grill was perfect for cooking, bed was super comfy, and the surrounding area was just beautiful. My favorite spot was the swimming hole. The dogs didn’t want to leave. Cindy was very responsive to messages before and during our stay. Will def come again!!

3 nights at Musick Creek Falls

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lower falls. The view was amazing and the campsite was immaculate. It is a short drive from Shaver Lake, but secluded enough to have that off-grid feel. Shandie is an excellent host, has a great eye for detail and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely be back soon and I will be recommending this location to friends and family.

Weekend Trip to Musick Creek Falls

The views and vibes were amazing here! 10/10 recommend!

Weekend Trip to Ace's Yosemite Hide Out

I couldn’t recommend staying at Billie’s land more! It is a beautiful property with a lots of privacy and feels very safe. Billie is very inviting and communicative. The shower is lovely, the bathroom is clean and the campsites are very well kept. I hope to go back someday soon!

Moore Creek Placer Claim

2 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Buck Meadows, CA

This is one of 3 gold claims I have here in the Yosemite area. This particular site is in one of the nicer areas of the national forest as it is in an area that has not been hit by wildfire recently. There are two camping sites on this claim one is a roundabout with a giant redwood in the center of the circle the other is right off the side of the road with easy access no matter what kind of rig you are driving. As a registered mining claim owner I or anyone with my permission can camp and prospect on the claim for up to 14 days consecutively… I will not be around the area as I live in San Diego and come up about once a month to one of them.. I ask that you leave the property as nice as you found it remember this is a national park and everyone wants to enjoy the beauty of nature.

Bridgeport Reservoir Campground

35 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents11 acres · CA

Bridgeport Reservoir is a lake at the lower end of Bridgeport Valley in Mono County, California. Its earth-filled dam was constructed in 1923 by the Walker River Irrigation District, along the East Walker River. The campground and marina was built I-don't-know-how-long ago, but it sure is nice! About Us: Welcome to Bridgeport Reservoir Marina and Campground. Join us for the classic camping and fishing experience with unique views of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. Within the Toiyabe National Forest, Bridgeport Reservoir Marina and Campground is conveniently located near two distinct hot spring areas. A true angler's paradise, the Reservoir has excellent trout fishing from spring through fall and is close by to multiple rivers for incredible fly fishing. A 35 minute drive on highway 120 will take you to the Tioga Pass Gate of Yosemite National Park. This gate is a great start to several different areas inside of the park that you may want to visit beyond that gate. Off-road enthusiasts would not have enough time in one visit to explore all of the 4x4 trails, abandoned mines, and sites in the area as well as the famous trail that brings you right to the Bodie Ghost Town. Climate and Ecosystem: At 6,400 feet (1,950 meters), this high desert climate has little to moderate tree coverage and gets hot during the days and cool at night. The conditions are much like Joshua Tree National Park or Alabama Hills camping area. During your visit, you will notice many flying insects that resemble mosquitos. These Chironomid are harmless and do not bite. On the contrary, the mosquito presence is very minimal. Swimming in the lake is possible usually between April to July.

Paradise Shores Camp

46 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Bridgeport, CA

We're a family owned RV Park & Campground located on the shores of Bridgeport Reservoir. Together with our crew, we're excited to welcome you into our newly adopted home. We believe in campfires, starry nights, good laughs, exploration, a deep sleep and an early rise. The mountains are a place to get back to basics, a place to explore, to breathe. So turn off your phone and turn on your senses. It’s important to us that our guests don’t feel they are renting a tent/RV site or a camper as much as they’re immersing themselves into the outdoor experience. You may just want to sit outside and read for days, enjoy campfires and eat s'mores. For more adventurous, there's a full slate of self-guided recreational activities, such as hiking, kayaking, fishing, ATVing, rock climbing, biking, natural water slides, stand up paddle boards, bird watching, available in the area. We do have modern conveniences such as wifi internet; however, we encourage our guests to “unplug” and immerse in the slow paced life instead. At Paradise Shores, we believe in protecting people, animals and the planet. We make sure that the majority of products we use at our camp is recycled, composted, or re-used. We prefer to use products that are produced in a sustainable way and avoid those that aren't. We are continuously reducing the amount of waste we generate and actively promote recycling of aluminum, plastic, glass, and cardboard. We pack our own recycling and haul it to the nearest recycling facility which is an hour away. We co-opt the drive with other activities to reduce waste. We don’t use individually packaged toiletries or one-use products. We use plant and planet friendly detergent. We're based in a desert. We share our precious water with the entire planet. With only 326 million cubic miles of water on the earth, the decreasing amounts of access to quality fresh water is alarming to us. We monitor how we use water in our day-to-day activities and are constantly working on ways to reduce our consumption of fresh-water resources. We hope you can help us maintain this greener camping! We hope Paradise Shores Camp becomes your home as it is ours. It’s located in one of the most spectacular areas in the world. We’re surrounded on three sides by the high Sierra Nevada Mountains. Yosemite National Park, Tuolumne Meadows, Mono Lake, June Lake, Virginia Lakes, and Twin Lakes, as well as the historic gold-mining town of Bodie, CA are all within a short drive from our place. We're proud to know this area intimately and are excited to share the secret spots with you. The excellent hiking/running trails including the Pacific Crest Trail, thousands of miles of ATV, dirt bike and mountain bike trails are accessible right from our camp or within a short drive from here. The surrounding terrain offers endless activities and unbelievable scenery in remote wilderness settings. Pet Policy All our RV & Tent sites are pet friendly and we allow up to two dogs per reservation for a small fee. We can also accommodate up to two four-legged campers in our pet-friendly Baja or Tatra trailers for a small fee, we ask that they stay off the furniture (beds, sofas etc.) and are not left in the rental unattended. We love dogs, but sadly won’t be able to accommodate heavily shedding pets that aren’t house trained. Additionally, our insurance will not allow "aggressive breeds" that include any mix of: Pit Bull, Rottweiler, Doberman, German Sheppard. Please pick up after your pup and use a leash when at the camp. Thank you in advance for your consideration and help in keeping our camp a mellow and enjoyable place for everyone.
