Camp Cruz

Glamping in the Redwoods
Private Use
near the beaches and entertainment cities in Santa Cruz and Monterey

Located an hour drive from the bay area and San Jose airport, Camp Cruz is a year-round glamping retreat in the redwoods ideal for people who want a private getaway in the forest without giving up basic living comforts. It is a perfect destination to unwind, recharge, and create special memories in nature. We only book one group at a time so whether you are a couple or a large group, our guests get the whole place to themselves. It offers guests 2 private bedrooms: the Raven’s Nest (an aircrete dome) and/or the Owl’s Nest (a yurt). More guests are welcome if you bring your own camping tents. There is a fully equipped covered kitchen with stove, fridge, barbecue grill, cookware, eating utensils, electric coffee maker, tables and chairs, and more. The kitchen also has a ping pong table. There is a large geodome furnished as a game room with couches, pool table, foosball table, a stereo, games, and music equipment. There are clean composting toilets, hot showers, a propane fire pit, heaters for the cold, a hammock bungalow, a meditation pagoda, a deck overlooking a creek, and outdoor play equipment like disc golf baskets. With a fair balance of sunlight and shade, we have a garden, and lots of open space to spread out and relax. We run a nonprofit nature camp for underprivileged youth, and your stay supports our work.
