Private Glamping Getaway in the Redwoods near Santa Cruz, California





Located an hour drive from the bay area, this property is a year-round glamping retreat in the redwoods ideal for people who want a private outdoor living getaway without giving up basic living comforts. It is a perfect destination to unwind, recharge, and create special memories in a private redwood forest setting.

It offers guests 2 private bedrooms: the Raven’s Nest (aircrete dome) and/or the Owl’s Nest (yurt). More guests are welcome (for a small fee) if you bring your own camping tents. There is a fully equipped covered kitchen with stove, fridge, barbecue grill, electric coffee maker, tables and chairs, and more. The kitchen also has a ping pong table. We have a large geodome furnished as a game room with couches, a lounge area, pool table, foosball table, a stereo and games,. There are clean composting toilets, hot showers, a propane fire pit, heaters for the cold, a hammock bungalow, a meditation pagoda, and a deck overlooking a year-round creek. We have disc golf baskets too. Having a fair balance of sunlight and shade, we have a garden, a beach by the creek, kids outdoor play equipment, and lots of open space to spread out and relax. We run a nonprofit nature camp for underprivileged youth, and your stay supports our work.
