The site is picturesque and pristine. The location is great. The washrooms were kept very clean and tidy. The staff were friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. Our only gripe is that this kind of glamping site isn't really children appropriate. It's a small site and not really a place to bring noisy or adventurous kids. Take them proper camping to a place with space where they can run wild instead. Otherwise fabulous stay! Thanks to Jill specifically, she's a star!
If I could give this company zero stars, I would. Generally, I’m not a person who writes online reviews but what has happened to my husband and I is so appalling that I feel it’s important for those out there looking for a place to stay around the redwoods. In early March 2023, my husband and I booked four nights for September 4 through 7 at the auto camp in Russian River Valley. Last Saturday we received an email in the morning welcoming us and letting us know what to expect when we arrive next week. A couple of hours later we received another email telling us that “due to a computer glitch”, our reservation had been double booked and therefore they canceled it. They continued on to state that they reserve the right to cancel reservations for any reason . There was no apology. This evening I called and spoke to a manager there. I wanted to know how we were allowed to book in the first place, if someone already had a reservation and if someone booked after us, why they weren’t the ones who are canceled. It was explained to me that a large group had booked, and their dates overlapped with our dates, and so therefore ours was canceled. Just as a sidenote, this is the second time they have canceled our reservation at the last minute. The previous time was six years ago, and it was the night before our arrival. We had already flown from the Midwest to San Francisco. Needless to say, we will not be trying a third time, and I would warn anyone out there to think twice before you book with this company
My young son and I spent one day/night at Auto Camp and absolutely loved it. We had planned to venture out and see more of the surrounding area, but Auto Camp was so cool and fun that we ended up staying at camp the entire day. First the airstreams are very cool. Modern and clean and they have every amenity - even pens, scissors and a bottle opener. And the shower/bathroom is surprisingly spacious. The decor throughout is tastefully done. While the campsites are close together each has a secluded feel because of the landscaping. It really feels like you're alone in the woods. The communal amenities are nice as well. There is a large fire pit that provides a nice ambiance and a large grass field where my son and I tossed a football. There is also a playground for younger kids. It's nice to walk around the path that circles the camp. It's short but they have these stunning green leafed trees that appear to glow in the sunlight. Oh and they also have bikes you can take on a first come, first served basis. We rode them into town to grab some food for dinner to cook on our grill - every airstream or luxury tent gets a fire ring with cooking grate. Lastly the staff is super friendly and kind and the store is small but seems to have everything you need. If you like rugged tent camping in the outdoors go do that, but if you want a little bit of glamping then Auto Camp is well worth a look.
Perfect getaway spot which is very close to San Francisco. Staff are friendly and helpful. There are 3 types of room you can choose which are premium airstream suite, classic airstream suite and tent no bathroom. Public restrooms and bathrooms are so nice. Mini breakfast is provided. Overall, recommended!!!!
We stayed at the ADA suite. The outdoor is perfect and we love it. However, the in-room facilitates need to be improved. Our window shades and the AC in the living room didn't function. We couldn't heat up our room. When we shower, we ran out of hot water and ended up showering with cold water. No one told us the hot water is limited. Overall, it's not worth ~$450/night. If you want to charge this amount, you should have your room ready.
I stayed friday-monday in a tent w/ my partner and small quiet dog, it was a great experience! -Shared Bathrooms were extremely clean and well stocked, - tents were very clan and have electric warming beds -The camp store has lots of snack options and bathroom items if you forgot something at home -The staff was amazing! the tents are def sorta close together and you can hear peoples convos BUT it didn't bother us at all [they also provided ear plugs] Only mentioning this because if you want more privacy/more of a romantic getaway, an airstream is probably better!
Having recently stayed at an autocamp nestled in the heart of Russian River, California, I'm beyond excited to share my incredible experience. As someone who loves the great outdoors but also values comfort, this hidden gem exceeded all expectations. The autocamp itself boasts a harmonious blend of luxury and nature. The accommodations are top-tier — comfortable, clean, and beautifully designed. The custom-designed Airstreams are far more than your typical campers. They come equipped with boutique-style amenities, providing a serene retreat after a long day exploring. The outdoor campfire, a wonderful gathering point, quickly became a personal favorite for late-night conversations under the starry sky. The staff were nothing short of amazing. Every team member was knowledgeable, attentive, and always ready to assist with a warm, welcoming smile. They went above and beyond to ensure that the stay was comfortable, from assisting with reservations to providing insights on local attractions. But perhaps the most standout feature of this autocamp is its location. Nestled among towering redwoods and adjacent to the stunning Russian River, the camp provides a picturesque escape that simply can't be duplicated. Here, nature's beauty is your backyard — whether that involves peaceful walks by the river, birdwatching in the tranquil early morning, or kayaking through the water under the afternoon sun. All in all, my stay at the Russian River autocamp was an unparalleled blend of comfort, adventure, and natural beauty. It offers an authentic yet luxurious camping experience that I would recommend to any traveler in search of something truly special.
This is our second time here, and few things has changed. First, they serve the pastry in the past, but now because of the budget cutting, it is no longer the case. Second, it is great to find that the overall environment remains the same and is always as cleaned and modern as before. The only issue we have is with the entrance. Obviously it is a gated property and it did not open when trying to go out. The sensor was not working and we had to backward a little bit.
You need to experience this. I can't explain how incredible this is without you being there. The staff was something you would expect to find at a 5 star resort, the ammenities were amazing, and the most amazing part you're in nature with huge Redwood trees surrounding you, and the beautiful Russian River to take a polar dip in. I would not think twice about booking a reservation just do it! I promise you that it will not dissapoint. Thank you AutoCamp for the memories.
