ENTREE found the perfect family getaway: Sequoia Meadows where you can rub shoulders with the most ancient trees on the planet. Camp Nelson is just 3 1/2 hours from Los Angeles and is like a hidden Yosemite Valley but without the crowds. 

Here you can stroll from Sequoia Meadows, 4.5 acres of private forest, to nearby hiking trails while enjoying crisp alpine air, pure, clear rivers, soaring mountains (some over 9,000′) and the largest trees on the planet, the Giant Sequoias, many over 3,000 years old.

This is an ideal for a family escape or a vacation with friends. Best of all, one can relax in the warm sun during the day and gaze at the brilliant stars at night. We cannot imagine a more idyllic spot to slow down, relax and enjoy the beauty,  privacy and peace of nature. Leave the cell phones and video games at home and immerse yourself in wild beauty.

The compound consists of 3 connected cabins, each with a king or queen bed, en-suite private bath & shower, patio, WiFi, heating, fans, television with a library of DVDs, games and books.

There is a year-round running stream along Sequoia Meadows, soaring trees, awe-inspiring mountain vistas, a bucolic meadow with families of birds and deer. Available for long or short term rentals, visit https://www.sequoiameadows.net/ or contact (805) 689-0015, arthur@atw.tv.
