I have been trying to reach this business for the past two days to cancel my reservation, and no one has responded. I have called, texted as instructed, and emailed just in case. Still nothing. This is especially concerning for a glamping property where guests are expected to stay in a remote or wilderness setting. If no one can respond to a basic cancellation request, how can guests feel confident that support would be available in an emergency or even for a routine need during the stay? The lack of communication is unacceptable and has made me feel unsafe bringing my family there. At this point, I will need to pursue cancellation through another route since I have been unable to get any assistance directly. read more

My favorite glamping spot! The staff are kind and helpful and ensure all your questions are answered as you settled in. Amenities are cleaned daily (showers, restrooms, common area, etc.). My favorite touch is the heated blanket that keeps you cozy no matter the temperature outside. The office has a library you can check out books and games for the duration of your stay. Happy camping! read more

I forgot to review this lovely place I got the pleasure of staying for two nights back in November 2025. This was the absolute cutest idea I have done in a long while, although the nights were absolutely freezing during November which I do not recommend, if you can't withstand the cold. It was still enjoyable though. I recommend doing this during the lovely summer, I am sure it's amazing. They have clean bathrooms to shower. Communal area for coffee and breakfast with small snacks. They had this absolutely amazing apple bread I had to call them for the recipe, it was soooo good. It was a nice walk to get coffee, coffee was decent as well, no complaints. Raccoons will be the biggest problem, they do warn you prior and say to hide all dog food and human food in the large heavy chest that is located outside your tent. I thought I had put everything inside the chest and I was laying down and I heard something outside, so I get up and my neighbor said the raccoon had taken something from my bag, I finally realized the next day it was my dogs combs ugh. I was sad to say the least so don't make the same mistake as I did, make sure to put all things in that chest lol. I am assuming they thought it was food. The staff were very friendly upon check in, and when I called back to for the apple bread recipe. I forgot to mention that I wish they would invest in way better heated blankets for the colder months especially if we can't bring our own. The ones that were included and on the bed were just not heating up enough for the 40 degree temps. Cute little spot for a getaway! read more

AMAZING experience! From beginning to end, the check in process went perfect. I received text messages prior to checking in & the staff is very welcoming, super sweet. I highly recommend this place, this was our first time camping lol and I'm not an outdoor type of person but Glamping is definitely something I can get use to. We got the camping kit to cook, which comes with plates cups, cast iron pan and pot, paper ... everything you need to cook $75. We also got the s'mores kit $12, & wood logs for $12 and they have Valet fire starters. If you're someone like me that does not have any survival skills lol that was clutch. The views are to die for! We only booked two nights & we regret it! Can't wait to come back. The Mendocino town near by is so cute and theirs tons of trails you can do. Hope you give this place a try. You won't regret it! read more

Mendocino Grove is a fantastic escape from everyday life, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Plus, it's just a short trip from the Bay Area--perfect for unwinding! My first stay was in June 2023, and my second was in June 2025. During our first visit, we opted for the Classic Tent: Private Vista Plus for more privacy. However, I wouldn't recommend this option. Our tent was tucked away, surrounded by bushes, increasing the chances of encountering raccoons. Additionally, access was inconvenient due to stairs, and the area was quite dark. Speaking of raccoons--we did have an encounter. Since the bottom of the tent isn't fully sealed, every rustle made us uneasy, leading to a restless night as we frequently got up to shoo them away. If staff advises you to lock up your food, take their advice seriously! For our second visit, we booked the Classic Tent: Easy Access, and we were much happier with this choice. Our tent was conveniently located near the lower bath area, and parking was right in front of our site, making our stay much more comfortable. The only downside this time was a strange, lingering smell. I suspect it was pesticides used to keep mosquitoes and other bugs away from the tent. We had forgotten to bring our electric bug lantern, but surprisingly, we didn't encounter any bugs inside our tent. Lastly, be aware that a loud siren may go off at night. It's mentioned on the information sheet provided at check-in as a standard alert, but it can be quite startling--so just a heads-up! Notes: - Mendocino Grove is well maintained and very clean. - WiFi is available but not always stable. - Towels and lamps are provided in the tents. -Heated beds work exceptionally well. -Outlets are located near the bottom of the bed; charging through the lamp is possible, but it uses USB-A, not USB-C. -The Upper Bath House feels more modern and cleaner than the Lower Bath House, possibly due to recent renovations. -Individual bathroom stalls for added privacy are near the Upper Bath House. -A dry sauna is available and complementary with your stay. -Massages can be booked at an additional cost. -Friday night dinners are offered at $30 per adult and $15 per child. -Complimentary tea is available all day. -Breakfast is served from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM, featuring coffee, cocoa, oatmeal with various toppings, boiled eggs, and banana bread. -An Espresso Snack Bar next to Meadow Commons offers coffee and breakfast items for purchase. -Firewood, s'more kits, and camp boxes are available for purchase. -There are trails throughout the Grove, and on weekends, a guided hike is offered at 9 AM free of charge. -Weekend yoga sessions are held from 10 AM to 11 AM for $12 per person, including mats, blocks, towels, and mushroom heaters on chilly mornings. Overall, Mendocino Grove continues to be a peaceful retreat, and I look forward to returning again! read more

A gorgeous relaxing stay. Staff was wonderful, views were great. Can't wait to return. The beds were cozy and warm. Vibes were great. Close to town but felt so far from it all. I wish our site had been more level. I felt drunk for the entire stay. Nevertheless, I had a blissful time and I loved every minute. read more

We've been coming to Mendocino Grove for the last nine years at least once every summer. It is our happy place. Teresa & Chris Raffo have done an extraordinary job creating a magical getaway that reconnects you with nature without having to sleep on the ground and in the cold. The comfy beds are heated. electrical outlets and USB ports are offered to charge your electronics, should you want or need to use them. We prefer to enjoy the sounds of nature and unplug while we're here. But they have improved their Wi-Fi connection considerably over the years so if you have to bring work, it's possible to do it with ease. We spend our days enjoying canoes on the river at Catch a Canoe and Bikes Too. The bike trolleys on the Skunk train tracks in Fort Bragg are also great fun. There's lots of hiking, great food and Mendocino epic ice cream at Cowlicks in Fort Bragg and music abounds at many different establishments throughout Mendocino. The botanic Gardens in Fort Bragg are also not to be missed. One of the most beautiful we've seen. Last night we had a great pizza dinner at Tara Farm kitchen with the outside view of the llama pen and live music performed by Matthew Human. A real treat all the way around. Lunch /brunch is healthy and epic at Goodlife Café in Mendocino. If you're gluten-free, the Belgian waffles are a must have, even if you aren't gluten-free. Absolutely delicious! Breakfast is provided at Mendocino Grove with a generous selection of fresh made oatmeal with lots of toppings, (brown sugar, cinnamon, peanut butter, hemp seeds, Chia seeds, walnuts, almonds, raisins), and some kind of delicious sweet bread plus hard, boiled eggs, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate are provided every morning. Tea is offered 24 seven under the heated patio and on the weekends they have an additional coffee bar where you can buy fancy coffees and other breakfast items. Yoga is offered on the deck overlooking the ocean for a small fee a few days a week. There is a free dry sauna and massage can be booked with the fabulous Ariel. We chose from the massage menu and had The Grove massage with added hot stones and CBD oil. Heavenly! Firewood and s'mores kits can also be purchased as can a full kitchen box with everything you need to cook, (pots and pans, plates, glasses, and mugs, knives and utensils and basic seasonings) for cooking over the fire or on the propane barbecues that are scattered throughout camp. If you don't know how to light your own fire, you can always call on a fire valet to come light it for you. They've thought about just about everything to make it a soul reviving stay. Do yourself a favor and come for as long as you possibly can! read more

Camped here early November and stayed for a weekend. The first day was raining so we didn't get to do much but the next day we were able to get things going with the fire pit. I booked the tent that had easy access to the main amenities, which I highly recommend. The bathroom was about a 30 second walk away from our tent. Night time was cold and that's where the heated blanket shined. The tents are located next to the ocean so you'll hear the waves in the background. Breakfast was simple, oatmeal with some toppings (raisins, nuts,seeds, coconut sheddings, cinnamon, brown sugar etc), pumpkin bread, and boiled eggs. Coffee too. A good selection of tea was available all day. There were hammocks and a lot of outdoor seating spread throughout the eating area. We got to park right outside the tent. Overall a pretty fun experience, but I don't think I'd want to do it again in super cold weather. They did provide the heated blanket and had ceiling space heaters for the outdoor dining area though. The bathrooms were pretty nice and clean too! A few things I didn't enjoy as much was how the driving path was also the walking path. During the night there would be little kids running around on the path, so we had to be extra careful driving in the dark. I also didn't like how the fire pit and picnic table was behind our tent and not in the front. I also feel like there should be a little more protection added for the tent because some of the tent zippers were accessible from the outside and not the inside. read more

Mendocino Grove - 3bed tent - Campgrounds Near Me - Mendocino, California

My stay at Mendocino Grove was hit/miss. Pros: 1. Beautiful location 2. Comfortable bed 3. Great water pressure 4. Friendly staff 5. Close to Mendocino (needed as they don't sell food) Cons: 1. Didn't respond to my request for campfire valet - like at all (not even an acknowledgement) and it was during the listed hours 2. Main gate was left open at night without obvious security 3. Most of the trash cans were full 4. Aging infrastructure I went to Ventana Campground for glamping (Big Sur area) back in February... similar amount of campers staying... and they were pretty responsive. Plus, they had an automatic gate for security. There aren't locks on the tents so it was more piece-of-mind. read more

We had a wonderful first visit to Mendocino Grove. We are seasoned campers, but have never tried glamping and it was every bit as easy as it looked! We arrived shortly after 4 pm check in time - it was a very easy drive up, in-car, check-in experience. Then we were given a map and they highlighted our tent area as well as where we would park. We were in Comptche - C5, a junior vista spot with a queen bed and bunk beds. We parked right behind the meadow commons area as directed (which was where we would end up getting coffee and hot oatmeal each morning) and there were wagons we could use to unload our car. The campground is lovely, completely serene and beautifully well-kept. And the bathrooms? Incredible! So clean! Fresh flowers! It was like a dream. This was where we spent the next two nights - this was July, but Mendocino July so think chilly!!! We dressed in layers and were prepared. The queen bed came equipped with a heated mattress pad, which I've never experienced before, but was truly magical on the cold nights. The kids were less impressed with their bunk beds, which were basic cots that didn't come with heating. Instead they had sleeping bags, lined with sheets, and a heavy blanket each. That was the one aspect that could be improved upon. The morning offerings at Meadow Commons were exceptional coffee, plenty of teas to choose from, hot oatmeal and toppings as well as type of sweet bread (carrot cake loaf on one day). All tasted great and they played some nice jazz as well. Plenty of seating available. Wi-fi worked well over at the Meadow Commons as well. On one morning, we rented a canoe from Catch A Canoe Rentals, and were able to walk there and back. The town of Mendocino is also just a few minutes away by car and super charming! Hammocks were readily available - and clean BBQ grills as well. When we were there, it wasn't fully booked in our area so was nicely private and quiet, despite being the family tent area. Mornings were among the quietest camp mornings I've ever experienced in my camping experience, which was incredible! Overall, Mendocino Grove is a great spot for hanging your hat and enjoying the great outdoors for a few days. I'd definitely recommend it - they've put a lot of love into this place and it shows. read more

For those of us who may not be ready to take on real camping, Mendocino Grove is around to give us a smoother intro into the woods. I've seen posts on Instagram of glamping before and was always intrigued by the idea of it and once I found out Mendocino was dog friendly, I was sold. The drive over from the Bay Area was long. The road it may take you to could be windy, bumpy, and honestly not for those that get motion sickness. Honestly, the overall trip was lovely. There's showers, individual toilets, constant hot water refill, and the bed has a heater for those cold nights. Seriously, we're treated like royalty, y'all. Only cons I can think of: -Everything in the tent felt moist and it smelled funky - not sure if the smell is standard or due to the weather conditions -Neighbors were loud - quiet hours are between 10pm-7am and while they were quiet around 10pm, we got woken up by them laughing around midnight. Understand it's not on Mendocino Grove, but would like to flag to remind people to be considerate towards their neighbors -Text for help - I love this feature especially when it came to getting help to start our fire, however, it'd be nice if they could provide an estimated time so you're not left wondering if they received the message or not read more

I'm super impressed with all the amenities at Mendocino Grove. To start, we got a tent with our own "private" space around our tent - they put logs around the perimeter of our area and we didn't have any issues with anyone getting too close to us. We were right in front of the common grass area. I was also impressed that the beds were so comfortable and actually heated! It was so cozy during the cold nights. We also brought our dog and they had a bed and food/water dishes ready for us, which was really nice. I was impressed with the bathrooms as well. Even though it was shared, it was always clean, and there were even fresh flowers in some of the bathrooms! They had free tea and coffee, which we took advantage of. It was nice to have access to hot water as well. I'm sure this is common with a lot of campsite sites, but we were able to buy firewood from them so we didn't have to go out of our way to buy any. The staff was also super nice and made sure we were taken care of. My 1st of 2 minor complaint was that the bottom of the tent is not locked down. Luckily, no mosquitos came in, but our dog did escape one time! We got paranoid and blocked the bottom of the tent with some of our luggage and also leashed her inside. My 2nd of 2 complaint, and I'm not docking Mendocino Grove a star because it's no one's fault, but there were SO MANY KIDS. But that's not really the problem. It was that they were all SCREAMING and running around NONSTOP from morning until night. Luckily, they were good during quiet hours, but non-quiet hours also start pretty early so it was hard to sleep in! I don't know how common this is - maybe it was just the weekend I went. The staff said there was some kind of family reunion or something. I was expecting a nice, relatively quiet camp, but all I could hear was kids ALL THE TIME. Overall though, it was a great stay and I would recommend this to anyone who wants to glamp. read more

Great stay. Beautiful and clean. Clean showers- I still wore flip flops, but it was out of habit not bc it wasn't clean. Tents were spacious and private. I wish the tents fully zipped closed at the openings, it was really windy and we had a draft coming through, also had an animal try to scratch its way in, if it was fully closed that would've been less bothersome. I was told the lights on the nightstands were USB-C to charge devices, theyre not, they're USB-A. We had a great time though, will stay again. read more

I am still reminiscing about my fun and relaxing sister glamping trip in Mendocino Grove during Memorial Day weekend. While my sister is an avid camper, I'm definitely still new in getting adjusted to outdoorsy things, communal bathrooms and such. Pulling off Hwy 1, try not to go too fast as your approaching the driveway. Immediately your car will take you on a narrow uphill road where you will park in front of their store for check in. It was a breeze. The welcoming guide gave us a map and a brief overview of the campgrounds. We paid a touch more for a Classic Tent Vista Plus facing the ocean. Tent & area: inside the tent was spacious & clean. I love that they had a few hangers for your jackets, 2 plugged in bedside lamps, and an additional 2 small LED lanterns for walking in the dark with. I was able to charge my phone and small electronics no problem. Outside, was a fire pit ($10 for delivered firewood), a picnic table, and a metal storage bin for your foods. Although there were other tents around us, we felt that we had a lot of privacy! We cooked all our meals except for breakfast. Campgrounds: every morning they offered a small breakfast such as oatmeal, hard boiled eggs, tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. There's also a barista on-site for lattes & other breakfast items for a price. The campgrounds is lovely and well kept. Everyone that worked there was always smiling and you can tell they liked being there. The common area had tables as well as chairs by fire pits. For being such a family friendly oriented place, it was quite peaceful. The communal bathrooms were surprisingly clean! They had 3 spacious shower stalls. Bathrooms (I brought my own blow dryer), and also a sink to wash your dishes with soap. They also have a store that sells Mendocino Grove merch. Very cute stuff! We didn't take advantage of the mini meals that you can purchase before a hike but I'm sure they were delicious. Honestly, they thought of everything. Surrounding area: Mendocino Grove is perfectly located a couple miles outside of Mendocino town that has restaurants and shops. Then a few more miles ahead is Fort Bragg town that's also slightly bigger. The hiking trails were abundant! We also rented an outrigger canoe at Catch a Canoe and did some rail bikes at the Skunk Train. Overall our stay was fun and relaxing! I absolutely cannot wait to do it again despite it being about 6 hours away for us. Also, if you drive an EV, I recommend charging in Petaluma, then at Fort Bragg later on. The drive was nothing short of amazing. Don't forget to pull off the road near Navarro Redwoods for some epic shots of the trees. Mendocino Grove , see you again! read more

Even though we're seasoned campers, it can be fun to splurge a bit and go glamping, This is a wonderful place to enjoy the outdoors and the Mendocino surroundings. It's dog friendly, with great amenities- bright, sturdy, and clean tent cabins, nice dinner or breakfast spreads, and modern bathrooms/outdoor showers. Downsides are the tents can be awfully close together (lack real privacy and the feeling that you're in the great outdoors by yourself) and cold showers if you visit outside of summer/fall. read more

Mendocino Grove - Approaching the Meadow Commons - Campgrounds Near Me - Mendocino, California

really nice glamping spot. very well though-out. bathrooms super clean and redwood framed showers in the main area were great. a few notes 1) next time, i'll try to get a tent a bit closer to the toilets for those late night or early morning potty runs ;) 2) if it's foggy out over the ocean, you may hear a very subtle foghorn. some will hear it, some won't. (to me, it sounded like a smartphone vibrating every few minutes ) unfortunately i could hear it so i used ear plugs when sleeping 3) movies and activities somehow when we checked in, the 'front desk' forgot to give us the 'events card' which lists things like movies in common area for kids. so be sure to get that card read more

I LOVE MENDOCINO GROVE! Glamping had been on our bucket list for a long time, so I decided to surprise my husband with a trip here for his birthday. We had a blast and would absolutely come back. Here's are my top 3 reasons why. 1) The campgrounds are stunning and modern! There are plenty of hiking trails on the property, and they provide you with a list of local restaurants and activities to check out nearby. 2) Convenience. I lived out of a backpack while traveling abroad for a year, but I'm a city girl at heart. Mendocino Grove made the experience of "roughing it" more enjoyable. They also have heated blankets and hot running water which is a plus since it can get pretty cold here. 3) The staff is incredibly friendly. They even mailed us back a jacket we accidentally left in our tent! Did I mention they have a dog park, dog wash station, and cool merch for your pup? And that you can book a massage and use their sauna? I'd give this place 10 stars if I could :) Come visit! read more

A group of 14 of us girls drove about 4 hours away (some a lot further) and stayed at Mendocino Grove. The place is absolutely beautiful. The tents were equipped with King or Queen sized beds with a heated blanket where you can adjust the temperature according to your liking. There was also a table, director's chair, small mirror, portable lamp, coat hanger and a chest to put your belongings in. Bring a COMBINATION or MASTER LOCK, so that you can lock your belongings up when you head out for a hike or off grounds. We didn't have one and didn't have any issues with anyone stealing our stuff because our campsite was pretty secluded. The bathrooms, showers, and sinks were cleaned very frequently, which made our Glamping trip a little more pleasant! You must wear a mask when you're in the community areas. Also, you can refill your hydroflasks or water bottles with filtered water near the bathrooms. They serve breakfast in the mornings until 10:00AM, which includes Fruit, Yogurt and Coffee. There were a couple things that contributed to the number of stars that I posted: - We were told that all 7 tents would be in the same area, but there was one tent that was on the other side of the campgrounds. - My tent, E4, smelled like urine. It was pretty unbearable to be in it and also sleep in there. My tent mate slept in the car the second because the smell was so bad the first night. - Raccoons and Skunks walk around and the Raccoons would enter into our tents to search for food in the middle of the night. They also come into the tents in the daytime as well because they took both Cocoa Bombs we left on each nightstand in the tent across the campsite, so just beware and DO NOT LEAVE ANY FOOD IN YOUR TENTS. Overall, I would 100% return to this campsite because it was absolutely clean and great for large groups. The staff was very friendly as well! Be sure to BARRICADE THE BOTTOM OF YOUR TENT before sleeping to prevent visitors in the middle of the night! read more

First time going glamping and glad it was at Mendocino Grove. I wanted to get away from all the smoke happening around The Bay and glad Mendocino isn't affected by it. I actually booked my trip last month and most availabilities were on the weekdays, which was fine because that means there would be less people, since we're also going through covid. My stay here was amazing. The glampground was beautiful and the tents were so cute! All staff members were extremely nice and accommodating. There's breakfast provided in the morning but only yogurt and fruits, and coffee, hot cocoa, and tea. Bathrooms are spotlessly clean and I wasn't too worried about sharing. There are several beaches and walking trails nearby and even cute little towns nearby to walk around too so it's not completely in the middle of a forest. This trip was a great intro to stay in the wilderness. I'm down to try camping now hahaha. Thank you Mendocino Grove, you haven't seen the last of me! ;) read more

Unique, incredible, fantastic, magical... there are not enough words to explain this place. We spent the last two nights of their season before closing up for winter. I was nervous since it was the close of their season that our stay would be less than it would have been at peak season. When we arrived, all my nerves were gone. So much care and attention to detail goes into this place. Fresh cut flowers in the bathrooms, at sink stations, clean, and I mean CLEAN bathrooms and showers. My husband and I are not campers or even glampers. We have no real camping gear or experience. This place was the perfect starting point to retreat to nature with all the creature comforts. We didn't want to leave and are already planning to return next year. read more

Truly one of the best spots for glamping/camping. As a kid my parents would take us camping. And while Im all up for "roughing it" I also very much appreciate being a bit boogie. Having things like showers, bathrooms, tents, and heated blankets just make the adventure so much more comfortable. Mendocino Grove has all these things. For those who aren't big on camping but want to try they offer great kits that include things like cooking equipment, s'mores ingredients and even offer to have someone light your campfire for you. The location is gorgeous. There are lots of beautiful sites to see, hikes and out door activities offered near by as well. The whole site just goes above and beyond with all the little extra details they have too. I'm constantly telling friends and family that if they are looking for a great relaxing and fun getaway this is definitely the place to go. read more

Went here for a short getaway before the holidays come. What a gem. Right off Highway 1 and easy to find, super close to Mendocino and Fort Bragg. Beautiful grounds, clean bathrooms, lovely tent and everything we needed. We got the premium tent with the most privacy, and I don't think I would choose the tents much closer together. Great for a family camping trip. Commons area had cocoa and wifi and nice places to sit and relax. Only negatives were the siren that goes off constantly, I don't think they can control that- but it went all night and you could feel the vibration when you slept. It was really rough to bring all the supplies to the tent, even with a cart. It was quite far from the parking spot, a concierge service would have been perfect. The heated beds were amazing and very comfortable. read more

So this is glamping. It is ridiculous in the best way. Need a fire started? Call the campfire valet. Don't like pitching a tent? Have a roomy, pre-built "tent" (more like a cabin). Cold at night? Beds are heated. There are chargers on the lamps on the nightstand. Luxury bath products in the showers. In the mornings, come down to the meadow for your coffee, cocoa, and Greek yogurt granola fresh fruit bowls. Ridiculous and wonderful. We didn't make use of the valet and built our own fires, three of them over the two nights. I recommend buying one firewood bundle per fire, as we prepaid for one, then ended up buying two more. We were in the "W" section in a standard tent that was still pretty tucked away and private. The staff were so friendly and helpful. When we asked for a bucket for putting out our fire, one magically appeared at our tent. When we asked to turn on lights, string lights magically began to glow, adding to the nighttime ambiance. They even provided us with tea on request. We had an amazing time. I don't think we'd come back in November - it was incredibly chilly - but we are looking ahead to come back in summer. We'll probably build our own fires then too. read more

Make sure to use this! + There are two leather chairs outside of the tent, and it's so comfy! + Each campsite comes with your own fire pit. CONS - I read a review about someone saying the inside of their tent smelled like urine. I felt that ours smelled like urine as well, so we had to use scented room spray every few hours. I'm not sure it's urine, but maybe the smell of the canvas of the tent with all the moisture. Regardless, the smell was not pleasant. - Very expensive to stay here. - While walking my dog, I noticed he would get sap stuck in his paws due to the pine trees. Not the campsites fault, but something to keep in mind if you're going on walks. TIP *There is no Verizon cell service here. You can access wifi in the common area. You may want to come prepared with pre-downloaded shows prior to your visit. *Luckily, we visited during the weekday, and it wasn't too busy. It was nice to be able to use the bathroom without having to ever wait. read more

Mendocino Grove is a very nice property. The glamping experience is very nice. The bathrooms and showers are top-notch. The beds are very comfortable and you can't beat the ocean view. The staff are very kind and helpful. We keep the accommodations and property in great condition. The only issue I have, and the reason it's only four stars is the layout. We had an ocean view tent (p5). The tents are not as secluded as I would've liked or as the website shows. And being in P5, we had foot traffic that comes within feet of our site. To get to the tent next to us campers had to walk nearly through our campsite. There is a trail down towards the ocean that leads hikers right next to our site and a viewing deck that also is accessed by a trail right next to our site. We did not have a full campsite but the traffic was still irritating. I can't imagine if the camp was full. walking around I could tell that this was not a singular occurrence. Other campsites were accessed with trails right next to them. The pictures will explain what I'm talking about. read more

Our first time glamping was such a success thanks to Mendocino Grove. The amenities here are amazing. I love the outdoors but I hate sleeping on the dirt and not having a bathroom so camping is a no go for me. But glamping? OH YES. The tents here are decked out with all the bedroom essentials and has a much needed heating blanket. But you will still need to wear layers! The bathroom situation is so comfortable, they have more than enough toilets, an outside sink, outside and inside shower and they are all very clean. You can cook at your private campsite or you can also use one of the community grills. Id advise you bring all your own food but you can also go to a nearby market. Theres also restaurants nearby. Many activities around like hiking, kayaking, biking etc. My only regret is that we only booked 1 night.. about a week after booking we tried to add on another night but there was no more availability and that was still a month or so before our actual camp date. They fill up really fast especially weekends! So book as soon as possible! read more
