Great site awesome area

It was a little challenging getting our 16’ trailer to the pad but it was worth it. So quiet and serene there. I don’t think the bigger rigs would be able to make the turn into the site and the road to the entrance is a bit rough. Don’t miss visiting the covered bridge at South Yuba State Park!

Wilflowers at the Yuba River a must see

Manzanita Rock Meadow was perfect for us. We have a campervan and the spot was level and very clean, affordable, and with great views and even a composting toilet inside a privacy tent. We got to meet Galen when she brought us firewood and she told us about some great trails on the Yuba River to catch some amazing sunsets. We’ll definitely be back next time we are in the area!

Magical trees, sunset view, peaceful

Our experience at Galen’s property was truly magical. We arrived in the early evening just in time to take in a glorious sunset. The solar string lights blinking on at dusk added a cozy ambiance! Galen is a warm and welcoming hostess and we enjoyed connecting with her! We will definitely return if in the area again, thank you Galen!

Great Visit

Galen was a great host. She told us of some cool hiking trails nearby, and where we could paddleboard. The spot was clean with lots of room to spread out. Our dogs loved it! We really enjoyed making a fire in the Chiminea, and enjoying the string lights that went on at sunset. We’ll definitely come back next time we’re in the area.

Beautiful, private camping spot close to the river!

What a great find!  This place is nestled in the woods with amazing views of of the sunset!  I love the private comfortable feel of the area and the hostess is very friendly and accommodating.

It is just a short drive or bike ride to the incredible Yuba River where there is swimming, picnicking and lots of trails to hike.  Such a gorgeous area! This camping spot was perfect!
