Description
Escape to a peaceful redwood sanctuary just minutes from the coast. Our private 20-acre property offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature while staying on a regenerative farm nestled among towering California coastal redwoods. Whether you're here for a quiet camping experience or an elevated glamping stay, this land invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and immerse yourself in the rhythm of the forest.
Space & Privacy: Each site is spacious and secluded, giving you plenty of room to relax, set up your gear, and enjoy the surrounding nature without feeling crowded. Trees and natural landscaping provide privacy while still allowing you to take in the forest views.
Amenities Access: Guests have access to a heated outdoor redwood shower and a porta potty conveniently located near the campsite. Water comes from our own spring, making for a refreshing and natural experience.
**Activities Access: While our trail system is small, you can explore the immediate surroundings on your own, wander along the seasonal creek, meander through our Hugelkultur beds, or spot deer, turkeys, and a variety of birds. **
For nearby adventures, Rio Del Mar Beach, Aptos Village, whale watching, wineries, restaurants, and organic markets are just 15 minutes away. Optional farm-to-table meals, inspired by Cuban family recipes and seasonal ingredients from the land, can also be arranged for a deeper connection to the farm.
This is more than a place to stay—it’s a chance to experience the connection between land, food, and well-being, all while enjoying the quiet beauty of a redwood forest sanctuary.
