Maidu Park Campground

94% (27)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 7 m
*20 Campsites Available (up to 6 people at each site - asking for your honesty when booking # people) * You are responsible for your own trash and recycling - please keep in car to maintain the pristine state of the land and to keep away from wildlife *No loud parties please - we want to respect others around and the nature too *Campsites are first come, first serve - you choose your spot when you arrive *This is a very rustic, private Campground with 20 campsites. 7 of these campsites have water facets and fire pits and picnic tables. It's a first come first serve campground and you choose the one you wish. We are not set up for reservations yet. Sometimes when the campground starts to get full and people request a fire pit we begin to decline request unless you're okay with an area not having a fire pit, picnic table and water faucet. Meaning sometimes we stop with seven basic groups as 13 sites even though very beautiful and private but do not have a water source fire pit or picnic table. So let us know your preference and needs. The Maidu Park Campground is officially open for the very first time this summer. This has been years in the making and we are excited to finally welcome people into the magic of the forest here. This is a portal of wild nature nestled in the Sierra Nevadas—a place to hold a sense of both adventure and sanctuary, whether you’re a large group, a couple, family, friends, etc. We have a variety of camping spots to choose from amidst the forest, each with their own unique flavor of the land. This 200 acre land used to be home to the Madiu tribe. It is a rare gem of protected land that offers a sense of adventure and exploration as well as inner sanctuary and rejuvenation. Pitch your tent or tipi on our 200 acre wilderness eco-preserve, located 40 minutes from Nevada City, CA. The campground includes a 2 stall outhouse and hot showers. Our seasonal lake has canoes you can use free; the lake is usually full until May and then drains out until the following winter. We have miles of trails - many already posted on this developing eco-retreat center and Wilderness Preserve. There is privacy and seclusion. Seasonal creeks and ponds. We have two developed Springs - one offering clean spring water to our campers a quarter mile from the campground. We are but minutes from beautiful swimming on the Yuba River. Less than 2 mi away we have Bloody Run Creek which is famous for three waterfalls, one 20 ft tall with a small pool at its base. At 4,000 ft our Campground is without any poison oak or ticks; there are mosquitoes in early summer so insect repellent is recommended. This is mostly a forest type Campground with conifers and deciduous trees providing shade in summer they're all paths and there are individual campsites prepared it's best to park at the main entrance and walk around first before you drive to your chosen the campsite as there are many options

Waterfalls and swimming holes are available within 5 minutes' drive, with many more hiking trails and river access points within 30-45 minutes' drive. Our location in the mountains will take you far outside the hustle and bustle of the city, but don't worry - there is a small store just down the road with many essentials, as well as a gas station, organic market, and cafe within 30 minutes' drive.  The Cabin: The most secluded of all of our cabins, Radiance is a spacious, 3-bedroom cabin that allows in ample natural light but is also well shaded throughout the day, keeping you cool in the summertime. The airy main room and redwood deck offer plenty of space for you and your group to relax, while the custom-built kitchen has everything you need for short and long stays.  PLEASE NOTE - the bathroom in Radiance cabin has a large, freestanding tub and sink but does not have a flush toilet or indoor shower.

Consider your stay an opportunity to disconnect from the virtual world and unwind. However, there is wifi available outside the main house if you need (a short walk away from the cabins).  VEHICLE ACCESS: Approximately 24 miles from Nevada City, California, the property is located about a mile down a gravel road. 4-wheel drive is required in wintertime (we are at higher elevation and frequently get snow), but the roads are accessible to any car in the warmer months. SMOKING/FIRE SAFETY: During high fire season (summer and early fall) we must be extremely careful with fires and smoking. Smoking is allowed on the cabin decks, fire pit and picnic areas, and in your vehicle but not in the outback on trails as it is prohibited by the local forest service.  LOCAL ATTRACTIONS: On the property you will find many miles of developed trails and forest roads to explore.

Truly special place
With kids ·
Serenity Cabin
It's a truly special place ! We usually do a full takeover of the 4 historical cabins (Serenity, Shambala, Trinity and Geronimo) with ~ 20 friends / family. Serenity is across the pond from the 3 others - a bit more secluded. It feels that we own the forest - no neighbors besides Adam the owner - and liberty for kids to roam around and adult to relax. The main fire-pit is the hanging place, with 2 huge tables to share grilled food. And old gas grill and a smoker complete the set-up. Each room has a basic kitchen well stocked with stove + cooking and serving basics+. There's running cold water and electricity, but drink only the spring water (provided and refillable at the spring). Rooms are basic and comfortable (no curtains, brings eye masks) but they are "forest clean". There's a shower and flush toilet in the owner's house (3 min walk). It's remote, secluded and we love it for that. No cell coverage, but slow wifi by the owner's house for emergency. We like exploring the area - malakoff park, yuba river and many swim holes. I've come every year since 2020 and love it.

A rustic reset
With kids ·
Shamballa Cabin, eco-preserve
We had the absolute best time. Adam was a clear and helpful communicator the minute we booked the site. The cabin itself was definitely rustic - no bathroom and the only source of heating was a wood stove in the living room (so keep that in mind if you’re staying October-March; it gets cold at night and you’re throwing logs onto the fire every few hours). That said, the bed was arguably the most comfortable bed I’ve ever stayed on in a short term rental. The cabin had everything we needed, including beautiful trails, snow for the boys to sled on, and a chance to mentally reset and disconnect from our devices. There is WiFi near the main house so if you have to get online, there are no issues. I look forward to coming back with more friends and family.

I loved the whole place, it was a good experience. I went when it was cold and we pretty much had the place to ourselves, but I do want to see what it’s like when it’s warmer and there’s more people around. I love the cabins, but I want to try the tent sites next time, they looked very nice, and especially since they’re right by the lake.

This was one of the best ways to spend time away from people. The cabins are beautiful. You are literally MILES away from anything. The property is amazing. 99% of the time we had no cell service but there was wifi. There was plenty of firewood provided considering we stayed for four nights. There is a toilet and shower at the office cabin that provides a better comfort for those that need it. Overall, this was such an amazing trip that we are wanting to come back again.

Shamballa Cabin, eco-preserve
Great remote location, close drive to rivers. It is not exactly glamping but it meets the requirements . Wifi certainly helped with planning and hassles of bringing lots of camping equipments. Inside the shamballa cabin, there were good amount of dust collecting in the bed room but its was not a big deal. However the bed, blanket, and pillows has a bit of rustic charm to it with stains and very well used for a long time.. not sure if the rooms was missed for cleaning. Overall, communication with Adam is very good, he respond to many of our questions and promptly replaced propane for the stove when it ran out. There were ample amount of bed sheets, clean towels and stocked kitchen utensils. Having shower is nice plus but the tub can be cleaner. We enjoyed our time there as it is very quiet and remote

Yuba, Stars, and Golden Hour!
Tent ·
Maidu Park Campground
We loved the camping experience at Maidu Park! The space we chose was perfectly shaded but speckled with sun during golden hour which was beautiful. The sites circle around this big open field and while some sites are closer than others, ours was perfectly private. We were at first nervous about the first come first serve but when we arrived we still have options and was able to pick the perfect spot for us. Many locations, including the one we selected, included a picnic table and water which was perfect. We also loved being so close to the Yuba and having the ability to take a hot shower upon return. Also the outhouse was actually quite cute and well taken care of! I would mention to definitely bring bug spray and such as there was a good amount of flies and mosquitoes. We spent the days by the Yuba, and the nights cozied under the stars. A perfect weekend!

We had a great time on Adam's property for Labor Day weekend! We stayed in Serenity cabin and it had everything we needed in the kitchen, comfy beds, a great porch to sit out on in the evenings. Both the outhouses and main house bathroom and shower were a very short walk. Adam was great with information and quick to respond with any questions we had. We loved it here and would definitely stay again.

Shamballa Cabin, eco-preserve
Great place to stay, definitely off the beaten path. Very rustic feel which I enjoyed. Cast iron fireplace which I lit every night, and worked very well to keep place warm. Very nice and quiet. Everything you need you have. Kitchen was perfect to prepare a good meal. You have a good amount of pots/pans and utensils. Showers and bathroom are literally a 2min walk. Yuba river nearby, nice to go and spend a day swimming or even gold panning. Fishing also not to far. Within 30 min from Bullard Bar reseviour or Yuba river. Drove in with my honda accord on a gravel path from the main road, roughly 1mile, 10min to cabin. Completely surrounded by tall tress. Temp usually drops by 10 degress once inside. I can see it may be difficult without a 4x4 in the winter. Adam is a great host, enjoyed our daily talks. Hope to see him again this time again next year or sooner. Can't wait to see the completion of the new group cabin, very beautiful!

Worth it!
Serenity Cabin
"My son and I just had an incredible weekend at this Hipcamp site! It was the perfect spot for some quality father-son bonding time. The campsite was well-maintained and nestled in a serene, picturesque location that gave us a real sense of being immersed in nature. We spent our days exploring the nearby trails, fishing in the peaceful stream, and sitting around the campfire sharing stories under the stars. The hosts were fantastic—friendly, helpful, and attentive without being intrusive. They provided all the little details that made our stay comfortable, from clean facilities to handy firewood. What made this trip truly special was the feeling of being away from it all, yet still having the convenience of well-thought-out amenities. We left feeling refreshed, reconnected, and already planning our next visit. I highly recommend this site to any fathers looking to create unforgettable memories with their kids. We'll definitely be back!"

Shamballa Cabin, eco-preserve
Very remote location north of Nevada City. Several swimming holes within 20-30 minutes away. Cabin was fine, but no hot water...just "potable" water from kitchen sink that didn't look at all potable. The property sounds nice in the description...meadow pond, campfire area, etc. Didn't see any of that. There's a BBQ area near the cabins but it's really run down and dirty. This place has potential...but it's a LONG way off on becoming a sought-after destination in Gold Country. There are far better places available...keep looking.
