Summer Camping and birthdays

When we opened 9 years ago, we honestly had no idea what we were doing.  I love the people who ask, “Did you have experience before running the campground?”  And while the answer is no, we did have hospitality experience and a lot of ideas on camping, but dreaming about it is very different than doing it.  So, to kick off our 10th summer season we want to thank our campers and supporters and super fans AGAIN for being a part of this amazing journey.  It’s amazing for all of us to look back at the years and think of how far we’ve come, yet how true we are to our original vision.  What I love is having so many repeat customers.  So thank you to all the folks who have cheered us along on this amazing journey, we’re still having fun!

Summer camping season is definitely here and while the glamping and RV sites are pretty popular, there are still options during the week.  Click here for availability.  And if you can’t find the spot you want for the date you’re looking for, it’s not too early to plan for next summer, as we take reservations up to a year in advance.  And for those of you who have missed our updates from around camp, we’ve been sharing updates and information on what’s new and exciting at the Inn Town Campground.

The South Yuba River is always a popular spot with our guests. We’re constantly reminding folks good river etiquette (pack it in, pack it out, please don’t park in any no parking zones, no loud music, no glass and definitely no fires).  As always, please be river safe and aware of moving currents and temperatures.  We’ve got maps with directions to various swimming holes, including Bridgeport, Edwards Crossing or Purdons Crossing. Another great water adventure in Nevada City is  Scotts Flat Lake where you can rent a SUP or kayak from Mountain Rec in the day use area.  For our campers who are looking for a quick and refreshing plunge, we always recommend our swimming pool.  No mater what your outdoor adventure, we’ve got a few suggestions for those who want to come visit us at the Inn Town Campground (biking, hiking, swimming holes, etc).
