The One Northern California Glamping Tent You Need To Book for Unforgettable Dark Sky Views

As a mom of young children, I feel like my life is a constant state of go, go, go. I often have to schedule time to slow down, relax, and just be still. When I’m outdoors and completely immersed in nature is when I find this stillness is the easiest to achieve, particularly when I have cozy amenities for my time away. Located at Hidden Valley Lake in Northern California is a glamping tent that checks off all of the boxes. It overlooks the Mayacamas Mountains, features cozy amenities, and at night, you can snuggle under a blanket of stars. It’s the perfect stargazing destination and an Airbnb where stillness comes easy.

This stargazing tent Airbnb sits above Harbin Hot Springs, Napa, and Mount St. Helens. It overlooks forests and mountains, and is far enough away from the hustle and bustle of daily life that you can easily relax and recover. Here, you will stay in a new Springbar 1960s replica white cotton canvas tent that doesn’t look like much on the outside, but take a step inside.

As you walk through the tent flap, you’ll find a comfortable place for some time away. This tent is complete with a queen-size bed, luxurious linens, and retro 1960s California boho-style furnishings. Small details are found all throughout this Airbnb as everything is made using natural fibers and renewable materials. Even the tent is facing southwest toward the ocean, so you can enjoy the cool ocean winds as they blow through the multiple windows.

And while the tent itself is certainly a delight, there’s nothing quite like the outdoors. There are other tents located on the 5-acre property, but they are spread out so you’ll feel away from any crowds. During the day, you’ll enjoy incredible views that many reviewers say photos simply don’t do justice. Bring a good book or spend hours in deep conversation with your favorite person as you stare at the beauty in this corner of the state.

When night comes and the stars come out, get ready for one epic show. Due to the remote location of this glamping tent, you’ll get to truly experience the magic of the night sky. On clear evenings, the stars will shine brightly above you, and as you are high in the mountains, you’ll feel like they are within reach at times. Of course, the soundtrack of the crickets, frogs, and nearby farm animals will make this even more magical and make it easy to escape a digital world for something real and perfect.

While you’ll want to stay up late watching the sunset and the stars above you, there’s something just as magical as the sunrise. It’s the perfect way to start your day. Then, you can set out on adventures to nearby towns, wineries, spas, etc.

If you are like me and searching for a place where stillness comes easily and Mother Nature has outdone herself, a stay at this glamping tent in Northern California must be on your bucket list. It’s an Airbnb with epic dark sky views and so much more. You’ll never want to head back to reality.
