Willow Springs is all about hosting GROUPS, large and small. We cater to family reunions, group gatherings of all kinds, workshops, seminars and church groups. Nestled in the foothills of the Tahoe National Forest, our Retreat Center offers a variety of accommodations to suit your needs, from 10 to 60. (SEE BELOW.) We are six minutes to several locations on the Yuba River and twenty minutes to Bullard’s Bar. Located just 15 short miles from the historic communities of Nevada City and Grass Valley, Willow Springs is a place to escape and re-connect with what is important, creating memories. We also incorporate principles of sustainability at Willow Springs, with an on-site educational herb and permaculture garden for which a self-tour is available (free) and a guided tour upon request. Fresh produce possible depending upon season and availability. We operate ala carte with our accommodations so we can customize your experience to meet your needs. You can choose one or more of the following: GROUP CAMPGROUND: This one-acre fenced in area allows for guests (Max 30) to bring their dogs and pitch tents in a protected area with an expansive view. Camp cooking has never been easier, as the community kitchen is well equipped with 2 full-sized refrigerators, gas stove/oven, pots and pans, dishware, silverware, triple sink, and two outdoor barbeques. The cooks will especially appreciate our unique outdoor “dishwashing station” for each individual (even kids!) to efficiently wash their own dishes instead of using throw-away plastic for each meal. Our bathhouse has two private toilets, two private showers with hot water and a double sink. Bring your own towels and toiletries. ADDITIONAL LODGING & AMENTITIES: YURT: A 20’ yurt (sleeps 4) is equipped with a full bed and queen sofa for members of your camping group that would like greater comfort. Limited electricity is available. BUNK HOUSE: This bunk house has 3 twin bunkbeds (sleeps 6) with a 12x14 covered deck. Limited electricity is available. RV SITES: Ranging from no services to full service. More information is available for other AMENITIES, including LODGE, YOGA STUDIO, PAVILION, EVENT TERRACE, MEDIA CENTER, and more, visit www.WillowSpringsLodge.com/blogs.

Mark and Trish are amazing hosts! They are really very warm and welcoming. The campground is nice and has nice facilities. I definitely recommend this campground for a large group as it is private and it has access to the kitchen as well.

Mark and Patricia's property is awesome; and so are they. Where to start?: Its a very private campground, with lots of room for all of our tents, games, etc. Super clean. The kitchen was setup great, with everything needed for camp cooking. My personal favorite kitchen item was the oversized griddle. Cam make food for a lot of people in a short time! Fire pit area was oversized and comfortable. It's a short drive to many great river spots; good location. As far as hosts go, Mark and Patricia are the perfect mix of helpful and friendly without being in your business. Patricia welcomed us to her garden and let us pick fruits and veggies. The garden. Is beautiful and big! We would definitely go back and stay! Thank you Mark and Patricia. Dan, Serena and friends.

Mark and Trish are such lovely hosts and have a beautiful property that they’ve thoughtfully put together. Our group of 34 really enjoyed our time at the group campsite and would love to come back for another visit. Highly recommend this hipcamp! Thanks again for your hospitality Mark and Trish!

Mark & Patricia’s campsite was so wonderful! There was a ton of space and having access to a kitchen and bathroom was great. Mark and Patricia were also so kind and helpful during our stay! We’ll definitely be back in the future! :)

Perfect camping experience for groups! The kitchen and bathroom made it feel like glamping and having a fenced in yard so the dogs could run and play was the best. You’re also so close to great swimming spots. The hosts are kind and helpful. I could not recommend this place enough.

Wanted to leave a review for future campers. This place was a very safe residence, the camping ground was fenced which made it safe since we took kids they wouldn’t be able to wonder away.Our party was 22 people and we all very much enjoyed this place. This place did have a kitchen and utensils and refrigerator to keep food and restrooms right next door. The hosts were very kind to amend to our needs, they did meet up with us to show us the area when we first arrived and checked up on us here and there to see how we were doing. There is a lake called Oregon creek that we did visit it’s a 10 minute drive from the residence and the lake was very beautiful and kid friendly. We really recommend this place.
