Inn Town Campground

As a family of six always on the hunt for the perfect camping spot, finding a place that truly has it all can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. But just an hour from Sacramento, we discovered our new favorite family-friendly destination: Inn Town Campground in Nevada City.

Looking for the perfect family-friendly campground near Sacramento? Just 1 hour away, Inn Town Campground in Nevada City has it ALL! Whether you're glamping in one of their cozy heated tents, parking the RV, or pitching a traditional tent, this spot is packed with comfort and charm.

What makes this place special:

Clean & Convenient Facilities
Clean bathrooms and hot showers are a game-changer when you're traveling with four kids. No more dreading the campground bathroom experience – these facilities are spotless and well-maintained.

Fully Equipped Kitchen
The communal kitchen comes with everything you might need, making meal prep so much easier for large families. It's like having a home away from home in the great outdoors.

Pool Fun (When It's Warm!)
The outdoor pool opens in May, which is perfect timing for warmer weather camping. We learned from our last trip that the pool was too cold during our visit for the kids to spend much time in it, so we'll definitely be planning our return for the summer months when everyone can enjoy splashing around.

Free Train Rides Nearby
This was a huge hit with our kids! The nearby train rides are not only free but provide hours of entertainment. It's these little touches that make Inn Town Campground stand out from other campgrounds.

Outdoor Movie Nights
Nothing beats watching movies under the stars with the whole family. The outdoor movie nights create those magical camping memories that kids (and adults) never forget.

Perfect Location
You're surrounded by beautiful forest, giving you that true outdoor camping experience, yet you're only 5 minutes from historic downtown Nevada City. It's the best of both worlds – nature immersion with easy access to shops, restaurants, and attractions.
