Jones Bar Farm is a quiet little seven acre hobby farm at the end of the paved section of Jones Bar Rd in Nevada City, CA. We have 4 alpacas and about a dozen chickens, who free-range all over the farm. The farm is perched near the edge of the South Yuba River canyon at about 2100 ft elevation. We are "above the fog, and below the snow (usually)." Summers are hot and dry here. Daytime temps in July and August are typically in the 90s, and night time temps are in the 70s. Spring and Fall are our favorite seasons. Here is a link to our personal weather station: https://ambientweather.net/dashboard/8b84c175d5842a7d91fe2ba6190ed314 Camping here is a semi-primitive experience, since there is no bathroom, and no garbage service. There is, however, potable water, and the campsites are easy to access and relatively flat. Past our property, the unpaved, and very rough, section of Jones Bar Rd continues down into the South Yuba River canyon for about 2 miles, to a lovely swimming hole. Bicycling and hiking are very popular activities in this area. The farm is about 6 miles from both Nevada City and Grass Valley. Both towns have lively and interesting down-towns with good shopping and restaurants.

This was a sweet spot to spend the night. Peaceful, with beautiful sunset and sunrise views, sounds of nature. A great place to unwind. Ann communicated quickly and thoroughly.

Beautiful farm. We loved hanging out on the swing bench and watching sunset by the alpacas. Ann was very welcoming!

Site 2 - Jones Barn Farm

Jones Farm was an easily accessible and spacious site. While it was very hot when we were there a two big oak trees on site number two provided ample shade. The farm animals and the unobstructed views of the sky made for beautiful evenings. I can’t wait to come back again.

Great place to camp! Quiet, flat, and I loved being near the alpacas. We arrived late at night and the hosts gave us clear instructions to find the site. Note that there is nowhere to go to the bathroom besides the ground (that I saw)
