Overview

This property is designed as a luxury camping experience that bridges the gap between traditional tent camping and full-scale RV resorts. With its carefully manicured grounds and emphasis on community, the campground provides a serene atmosphere that encourages guests to slow down and enjoy the surrounding pine forests while maintaining a high level of cleanliness and convenience.

Situated in the heart of the Sierra Nevada foothills, the campground is nestled among tall trees that provide ample shade during warm California afternoons. The location is just a short drive from the charming downtown area of Nevada City, allowing visitors to easily access local boutiques, galleries, and coffee shops. The surrounding landscape is defined by rolling hills and dense evergreen forests, creating a quiet retreat that feels tucked away from the noise of modern life.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Visitors can spend their days exploring the nearby South Yuba River, which is famous for its crystal-clear swimming holes and scenic hiking trails. History enthusiasts will appreciate the Gold Rush heritage found throughout Nevada City and the neighboring town of Grass City, where preserved architecture tells the story of California’s past. For those who enjoy active travel, the surrounding region offers miles of mountain biking trails and peaceful spots for trout fishing in the nearby mountain lakes.

Magical, extremely well put together and organized, easy to enjoy campground close to Nevada City. Professional, warm staff, clean bathrooms and kitchen. Great internet (unless you're in a tent at the far back of the grounds), clean swimming pool. I can't say enough positive things about this place. The trees arching overhead as you sleep in your tent, the landscaping, the trails, the beautiful way all the sites blend is top notch. And laundry! I met a lot of staff but in particular I got a lot of great info from Sara and Teena. Rita, and all the staff are really awesome. You'll enjoy your stay here without a doubt. And great price compared to other rentals!

This is our second visit to Inn Town and we will absolutely be back. The campground is conveniently located, yet feels tucked away in the California redwoods. It is immaculately clean, well-cared for and stocked with amenities. We were able to trek to town with our wagon via the meadow behind the grounds, and on Sunday morning, a real steam engine train passed by the campground, an unexpected fun treat for the kids thanks to the railroad museum next door. There is open space for kids to play, and campsites are thoughtfully placed so each one offers a bit of privacy. Yuba river swimming holes are a few miles away, and well worth the scenic drive. Thank you for a great and memorable stay, Inn Town!

We had a great experience here. They have a pool and movie nights for the kiddos. The atmosphere is calm and we had no concerns letting the young children of our group roam all over. It felt very safe. A peek in the glamping tents was impressive. They look very comfy, have power, fluffy bedding, a fan for cooling. No campfires allowed here, not even charcoal grilling in your campsite. They have propane campfires for rent, and charcoal grilling can be done in a couple designated cooking areas - so the necessary fire safety will not disrupt any meal plans you might have. They also (unique to any campground I've been to) have a full indoor kitchen with all the equipment you might need. Just bring groceries and a cooler! The 2 other outdoor cooking areas for grilling also have double kitchen sinks nearby and garbage cans. Easiest camp dishwashing experience ever! And warm water for hand washing (so nice on a cool morning)! Everything was so clean. Showers were great, with a mixture of indoor and outdoor showers. There were plenty of locker room type shower stalls (we never had to wait) as well as a private family bathroom with shower at the pool area. This is a VERY handy feature for travelers with kiddos who are too big to use an opposite-sex bathroom with a parent, but too small to be able to use their own gendered bathroom on their own for showering.

This is our favorite campground. We come every year, and love coming the Fourth of July. We bring our 3 kids; and camp with our friends. It has everything you need, RV hookups, community kitchen, pool, short walk to town. This year the owners gave all the kids Rice Krispie treats at checkin, brought popsicles by the pool. The owners drove around checking on us to make sure we were comfortable. Each camp is so clean. We had truck trouble this year and had to call AAA for our truck and trailer. They were so understanding and accommodating during this time. Love this place.

I generally don't go camping and have essentially zero camping experience but staying at Inn Town Campground was so comfortable and fun - if I had to "camp", I'd do it here! The facilities are maintained impeccably - restrooms, community kitchen, our glamping tent, picnic tables... There are lots of activities to do on the campgrounds including a super fun train ride, nearby trails, or even exploring downtown Grass Valley. None of the 8 kids in our group (ages 2-8) ever said they were bored or asked for a device to play with. We stayed in April so it got quite cold at night but the glamping tents have heated beds so it was pretty comfortable for us. If someone is staying in the tent on a cot, I would bring an extra heat pad or heated blanket. I also appreciate that the campgrounds are easily accessed from the freeway. You don't have to drive through narrow roads with hairpin turns through a forest to find it, but you still feel secluded and immersed in nature while you're there.
