The space
Here you will have the entire Hideaway to yourself! Your views will be of our vineyard surrounded by the mountains and the Trinity Alps. Our local area offers hiking for all levels, swimming, boating, trail riding, and more. On site we offer a small swimming hole and have access to a mild hiking trail. We also have a horse corral should you want to bring your own horses. Off-road vehicles or bicycles are also welcome.
This includes 2 tent cabins (a kitchen for each), 1 bell tent, with room for extra regular camping tents. There is space in front of the bell tent for regular tents and there is a spot below, that could host more space (the ground has rough patches). We estimate that this entire site can accommodate 8-15 people depending on the different tents or space layout.
Tent cabin sites: Each site will give you a private space with a small kitchen area, bear box, and a firepit. Site 1 offers more of a view of the vineyard and has more sun. Site 2 offers more of a shaded space and is closer to the bathroom. Each site is furnished with full sized bed, light bedding, nightstands, trunk with kitchen supplies, small inside light, coat hooks, and outside lights. Bed fits 2 comfortability but can fit up to 4 people in the tent with 2 sleeping pads available upon request. The kitchen will have a sink with non-potable cold water. There will be basic cookware and dishes for the kitchen. This will include a two-burner camp stove. We will have a jug of clean drinking water available.
Bell Tent: This site is lightly furnished. It will come with a full sized sleeping pad, that will sleep 2 but can fit up to 4 people comfortably in the tent with 2 sleeping pads available upon request. There will be a small light inside the tent. There will be a trunk with throw blankets and extra towels. There is no kitchen at the site, but there is an outdoor sink attached to the bathroom that can be used. No kitchen supplies are provided. There isn't a table at the site but there is a communal table located just below the site. No fire is allowed at this site, but BBQ is ok.
Campsite Spots: There is a spots that could each fit extra regular camping tents (one can go in front of the bell tent), there is a spot below, that could host more space (the ground has rough patches). We can be flexible on the number of tents.
We have a bathroom and shower room that is shared with the other site. There will be hot and cold non-potable water. Basic supplies are provided in the bathroom and shower room. There is an outside motion light at the bathroom and both rooms have lights.
Supplies: Please bring your own camping supplies if needed. This includes extra bedding and towels, specialized cookware, fire material, bathroom needs, etc. We tried to provide some basic solar lights around the bathroom and sites, but we suggest bringing flashlights and any camping lights.
