Sandy Bar Ranch

Orleans, California

Riverside Cabins in the Heart of the Klamath Mountains

Just inland from the Redwood Coast lies the Mid-Klamath Region of Humboldt County, a little-known corner of Northern California, with winding rivers, granite canyons, majestic mountains and miles of trails waiting to be explored. Here, along the banks of the Klamath River, you'll find our cabins, along with excellent fishing, private swimming, and a secluded, peaceful setting.

WELCOME TO SANDY BAR RANCH

Our Cabins

At Sandy Bar Ranch, we offer six comfortable pet-friendly cabins along the Kalmath River. Each cabin has a separate bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen, linens, and, best of all, a private deck overlooking Klamath River. Our five standard cabins have identical layouts, while our premium cabin a second bedroom, more floor space, and more windows facing the Klamath. 

On and Around the Ranch

Paths from each cabin lead a few hundred feet to our private sandy beach, where the Klamath River meets Pearch Creek, a pristine mountain stream that can be heard from the cabin decks. Across from our swimming hole, you'll see The Rock, a large outcrop that's great for jumping off, picnicking, or simply relaxing and soaking up the Northern California sun. Interested in fishing? Our stretch of the Klamath River is one of the finest, yet least-known, steelhead fishing locations in Northern California.  See our Guide to Sandy Bar Ranch and the Mid Klamath Region for more details.
