Come celebrate nature with us! Ravens Landing is a unique piece of property. We are an off-grid forever building artist community. Saddled in between two big mountains, it sits on top of a valley with breathtaking views. Ravens Landing burnt down in 2015 and since then, I and many friends and artists have been rebuilding using recycled lumber and various objects that survived the fires. Today I am so humbly proud to facilitate a space for artists, musicians, nature lovers, off the grid fanatics and more! We love being inspired and inspiring so please come for a visit and leave some of your own inspiration behind. Come explore the beautiful oak and manzanita forests. Relax and take in the fresh air. Spend quality time with our animals, drive off to the cold running creek, take a workshop or relax in a sound journey. This is our Home, so please visit with an open mind, open heart, and most of all Respect. Everyone is always welcome here. Please remember Kids are considered guests here so please include them when you reserve the number of people in your party. KID POLICY: **Must keep an eye on your children at all times. You are responsible for them! **Children must be comfortable and respectful around animals. We have a lot here, they are amazing and kid friendly. **Kids fill this space with their amazing energy so please make sure you account for them in your reservation. If your kids are walking they are considered little people and are charged at regular price. Please inform during booking there will be kids in your party, that way we can possibly reserve a site closer to amenities. MORE INFO: Please bring your own tent. All campers get all access to our hand built cob kitchen which and access to our epic dining hall deck. It’s a very sunny property so please bring a canopy for shade if you want it over your campsite. But remember to bring stakes, it can be windy here. There is limited water due to the drought. Here we make every drop count so please come with water conservation in mind. Also for big groups, we love celebrating but please please avoid bringing balloons, styrofoam, plastic banners, plastic cups, streamers or anything else that can blow away in the wind. We are off-grid with no amenities from the city so please be mindful of how much trash you’ll leave behind. If drinking alcoholic beverages we ask that campers take their empties. Ask for a bag if you need it. It’s always a journey finding the magical places so just a sweet heads up our mountain dirt road is a bit bumpy. Cars make it up all the time. Be sure to drive at a steady pace (lowest gear is good) on the way up and don’t stop till you see the Welcome sign! You will be greeted by one of our wonderful residents.... Or myself! ARRIVAL: We ask campers to arrive between 1pm at 8pm. If possible a general ETA helps as well. DOGS: We have an amazing dog with a wonderful disposition that roams freely here. You will be most definitely greeted at the entrance by Arco wearing a beautiful tuxedo. Arco will check in with you throughout your stay. *Please keep your dog on a leash at all times. Our animals roam freely. * WATER: Please bring your own Drinking Water. We do have potable water here as well. We have a shower for those staying more than one night. *We ask that people take _very_ efficient showers. Water is tremendously valuable here.*

Where Art Meets Nature

Tent · Group trip ·

Ravens Landing

Layna is an absolute wonder! Her land is truly beautiful and a little treasure up in the mountains. What a beautiful experience it was to camp where art meets nature. She has created a unique space and I am so grateful we got to share in it for a little moment. My favorite part is the outdoor dining hall that overlooked everything. It really is something you need to experience. Thank you Layna for your hospitality, for sharing your puppies with us, and for allowing us into your beautiful home. You made our first annual sister camping trip a treasured core memory!

Ravens Landing

Layna has managed to maximize all the magic of her property that she shares with us, and improve upon it. Her artful and thoughtful design of the space, whether the tent pad or shared communal space made me feel giddy with delight. No joke. And I'm pretty sure my urban dog thought she was the heavens. Originally thinking this was a conveniently located spot to break my road trip, I left realizing this would be a destination on future trips.

Milky Way and Shooting star!

Inverted Treehouse!

Loved it! Layne was great/very helpful, and the cabin was very cozy (I ended up staying in the cabin not the inverted treehouse). Beautiful and very peaceful spot of land - saw the Milky Way and a shooting star too. The road up is a bit rough but I did it without 4WD and Layna offered to help if needed. Town and everything is 10 min drive away and lots of wineries in the area. One of my fav places I’ve stayed on HipCamp, Would def recommend and looking to go again!

Ravens Landing

We had an amazing time at our stay at Ravens Landing. Layna is an excellent host! Great for our group of 7. Beautiful stars at night. It’s impressive how she has built the spacious kitchen, lounge and restroom all with awesome views! Not to mention you get to hang with their friendly and gorgeous peacocks and dog Arco. A truly unique experience. Thanks again!

Ravens Landing

Raven Landing is a good place to campground. Although, it needs a little bit maintenance, hope that the owner takes that into consideration in future. I recommend the place for night camping.

Raven's Landing is a gem!

Inverted Treehouse!

Raven's Landing was one of coolest and memorable places I've ever visited. Layna was absolutely the nicest and most welcoming host, and we had a wonderful time exploring the camp, using all of the communal spaces, and interacting with her sweet dog Arco and the roaming chickens and peacocks (and little peafowl)! We also stayed in the inverted treehouse cabin which was really lovely. During the heat wave, we took Layna's recommendation and found a lovely part of Cache Creek to spend a day in the running water. I would highly recommend a visit :)
