First time here and this is such a great place to go camping. We went for the 4th of July. It was…read moreso much fun that we will be coming back real soon. The river is in walking distances. The staff is very friendly and the grounds are well kept with the bathrooms being well taken care of. On the 4th of July they have a fun parade in their little town near by. The town is close by in walking distance with a bar and small store if you need to buy something you forgot. They also have a restaurant but we did not eat there. This place offers tent and RV camping. They have a play ground so kids can swing and play. It's very family friendly. If you are down to go camping go check them out. I really can't say enough about this place. They do book up very quickly.

We've been camping here for several years and love the area…read more Now, I understand that some people have no respect for other people's property, but that's not everyone and it's certainly not us. We don't bring any off-road vehicles, clean up after ourselves and others, and have always been respectful to others. This trip, we were confused by an extra charge for camper 5 & 6 when they arrived. We simply asked why when the website says up to 6 per site and got the response "don't tell me what my website says, I'll pull it up and show you..." Whoa, hold on, it was a legit question we weren't challenging your existence! Why such a mean and rude response? We ALL have bad days and I spent MANY years in customer service, you just don't treat people like that if you want them to come back. So now we question, do they even care if we come back? There are so many people wanting to get a spot this time of year that we don't matter to them? The first three days we were here, less than half the spots are taken, so I would think not. But wow, horrible treatment, horrible. I must say though, we went to the office the day before, it was closed, we rang the bell and received a cheerful greeting followed by an eager response to fill our request for firewood, even delivered it to our spot. So, to the lady in the office that spoke so rudely to my wife and daughter, relax. Sometimes folks simply don't understand and a calm explanation is all they need. Will we come back? Maybe. But if we do, I hope we encounter the nice staff, not the rude angry lady.

Good amount of campsites with great proximity to the river. Be warned it is very dusty and every…read moretime a car drives past your site you'll have a mouth full of sand. We had a great time chilling by the camp fire and playing in the river with the pup. This is a very local spot, not a lot of out-of-towners seem to know about it. Be sure to grab a spot Friday night for the weekend or max out the 2 week limit! Also the rangers were awesome, super friendly and helpful. Fun spot! Took one star off for the how dry and dusty the campsite was and the fact that there was no access to water other than the river. Be sure to bring your own bottles

Made reservation for campsite 16 for 5/26-5/28. Was a little bummed that the weather was going to…read morebe shoddy (raining the whole time), but I was still stoked to be able to spend a couple nights solo camping. Night one went fine, lots of rain but kept a nice fire in the provided fire pit where I was able to stay warm and mostly dry. However, a Ranger showed up on 5/27 around 2pm and told me there was a fire ban in effect and I needed to extinguish my fire. In the rain. In the provided fire pit. I went to the Mineral Bar website- nothing but instructions to use provided pits. Went to Reserve California- ditto. Decided I couldn't make a mid 40 degree night with no fire in the pouring rain so I quickly packed up and left- but not before being absolutely drenched in the DOWNPOUR. I called Reserve California and she said "there's a ban every year 6/16-10/15" to which I said "great! It's May" Finally googled "fire ban mineral bar campground" when I got home and they posted a ban 5/26 (the day I got there). No notices displayed at campsite. No information given but ruining a camp trip I so desperately needed for my mental health. Will never return, even for day camping. This was a favorite spot before that.

The owners are incredibly nice and helpful with any issues or concerns. We were lucky enough to get to hang out with the two dogs who live on the property as well. They're sweet and adorable! Definitely make sure to follow the website's directions there and back, though. We got lost when we didn't. We will definitely be back!

This is a frisbee golf course about an hour from Tahoe, and it's fantastic!…read more Located in the middle of nowhere at the end of a few miles of dirt road, you'll find this beautiful course carved out on a high hill. The Toneys built the whole 18 hole course up themselves in the last few years on their property, and the whole thing is irrigated with well water pumped by solar power. Most of the course is flat, while there are about four "bowl holes" that take you down and out of a valley, including one with a 250 ft. drop. Fortunately there's not too much brush, so you'll probably be able to find your disc when it goes astray. Camping here was great too. The plots are spread out, and it's not crowded. You can rent one of their spacious teepees for $30, and swim in their kind of icky yet refreshing pool with the frogs and water skippers. The Toneys were great hosts, and went golfing with us.

Cal Ida Campground was a mystery to me until our arrival. Part of the beauty of camping is this…read moremystery, so, without giving away too much, I will list a few things and just let you know that this place has everything you would need for basic camping, and is a less-than-5-minute walk from a general store, and several entrances/swimming holes on the Yuba River and tributaries. Firewood on-sale at site for 8 bucks a bag Awesome, helpful camp attendant Outhouses that are pretty decent, as far as outhouses go 2 water-spigots, no more than 50 yds away from each site Some sites are located on a cold-water, but BEAUTIFUL tributary to the Yuba...with private beautiful (although ice-cold) swimming holes General store/bar opened til 8pm just outside camp 5 min walk to Jackson Hole, Fiddle Creek 10 minute drive up 49 to Downieville Sites range from water-side, to a small outcropping of trees in a dirt-patch, so it would be good to ask for a description of the location (without being annoying). It's gorgeous. All of it.

It's a perfect campground if you are looking for something basic. I felt a little bit open but we…read morehad a great time, our neighbors were nice and quiet. What I really missed is there was no facility for showering. The little bar near to the campsite sells wood, ice, water & other what-nots. I think the mosquitoes are from another planet, because no layers of mosquito repellent kept them away and some of the bites grew tremendously huge.

When renting the Lodge, there is a variety of accommodations- single rooms, double room, and a dorm room. The living room is a great place for people to gather with plenty of comfortable chairs and couches. The kitchen is very modern and clean. The backyard water feature is very relaxing and the grounds are spacious. The owners, Mark and Trish, have been put so much thought and care into all the details! Trish's permaculture garden is an absolute "must see" it is amazing to see and smell these berries and vegetables! I highly recommend Willow Springs Lodge for anyone looking to lead a Retreat. And I would also recommend Willow Springs Lodge for family reunions and large gatherings such as weddings and birthday celebrations. The venue is easy to get to, since it is located on the 49 highway and it is also an easy drive to many Yuba River spots. Your group will definitely enjoy these peaceful surroundings!

Wooza, this is such a cool and unique place. If you have a large family or a few sets of friends…read moreand want to get away to forget about all the norms of everyday life, this is the spot for you. I've stayed at the lodge 3 times so far and look forward to the tranquility everytime. It's a hidden gem in Grass Valley right off Highway 49 (2-3 hours drive from the bay area). It's very close to several great spots on the Yuba river where you can spend the day swimming and bathing in the sun. The lodge is great for large groups, has three very nice bedrooms in the main building, another one attached to the yoga studio (which is just steps away), and a HUGE attic area upstairs that spans the whole length of the house and has something like eight beds up there. There's a great big commercial size kitchen so prep, cooking, and cleaning is quite easy. The main room is open concept with an expansive dining table, a large living room area, and an old fashion salon style bar. Relaxation is the key to this place! There is no TV; only the sounds of joyous laughter when you sit around the living room sharing stories or out in the back patio area surrounded by nature and a small babbling brook. Beyond the herb/vegetable garden is a chicken coup and a fun kick it spot where we usually roast marshmallows at night. Just past that is a large pavillion to make the occasion a little more formal. The owners, Trish & Mark have really created a wonderful and unique slice of paradise.
