4000 Feet Closer to Just OK....

4,000 Feet Closer to Heaven

Closer to Heaven was just OK. Campsites are spread out, but when booking we were placed right next to the only other group in the camp. The activities are all outside of the camp between 30-40mins drive away. 65$ a night for campsite with no access to sink, kitchen, or a shower is steep. Hopefully the small tough sheds on the property will come with some usable amenities soon.

Bee cautious!

Cozy FURNISHED Cabin on Eagle Hill

The Log Haven cabin was a great place to stay. It's nice, clean, and we happened to have the entire camp to ourselves so it was awesome but for one thing... The bees! There was 50 to 100 bees at all times (unfortunately not exaggerating). They are all over the place, it's impossible to escape them. We stayed 2 nights and got stung only once, so i guess it isn't too bad. But if you're allergic or something, beware. Another thing is the owner of the land. He showed up on our second day and it looked like he thought we were other campers (people that apparently tried to cancel on them or something) and i guess wanted to argue over this. Then once it was established we weren't those people, he talked in detail about his love to kill animals with his bow which made us uncomfortable and feel a bit unsafe. Overall we still recommend the cabin as it's a beautiful place and close to some really nice swimming spots.

This is a good spot to camp. The bathroom is nice. The camping sites are generally flat. The ones near the bathroom are relatively close together and might be loud if the place is crowded. Sites 7 and 8 are farther away from people.

Serenity

Cabin On Eagle Hill

Thanks for such a serene “home away from home”! We absolutely loved the dog house and we’d definitely come back again when the weather conditions clear up from the forest fires. So much wildlife to see around the area.

Wine country camping

Group trip ·

4,000 Feet Closer to Heaven

Great spot. One of the cleanest camp toilets I’ve ever seen, each site has a lot of space, the area is beautiful. Lots to do nearby. Our group went wine tasting, Saluti down the road is exceptional. We hope to be back soon!

It was good but not as good as other hip camps I have visited. There were lots of yellow jackets but no traps. The toilet too had lots of bugs and yellow jackets inside. Had a neighbor camper who had couple of dogs left unattended - the were barking all day long. Not a very pleasant experience but the place was alright.
