Fun and Memorable Bachelor and Bachelorette Adventures

A bachelor or bachelorette party, held in the weeks or months before a wedding, is a special night in a person’s life where they can celebrate with their friends and bridal party before tying the knot. For the woman or man who enjoys camping, combining this last night of singledom with nature is a fantastic way to celebrate an end and a new beginning all at once.

Mention the words “bachelor party,” and images of wild parties and scenes from “The Hangover” probably come to mind. But uncontrolled debauchery isn’t the only thing that goes hand in hand with a bride or groom’s last night of freedom. Bachelor and bachelorette parties can also come with a big price tag — as do many destination weddings. Our river front resort offers luxury and rustic accommodations for large, midsized and small groups at affordable rates that leave plenty of room in your budget for additional activities such as whitewater rafting, wine tasting excursions, dining out or even a ski trip in nearby Lake Tahoe.

Let us help plan your perfect party by providing your accommodation and activities all from one central location. Stay in one of our luxury cabins and head out for a day of wine tasting, or camp under a million stars and spend the day rafting down the American River! We even provide bachelor or bachelorette parties campsites that are slightly removed from others so you can let loose a little without upsetting anyone.

Bachelor and bachelorette parties can range from the wild and crazy to the relaxed and subdued. And, contrary to popular belief, they don’t always involve a trip to Las Vegas. Bachelor and Bachelorette party ideas include camping trips, river rafting trips, a day at Lake Tahoe, or just a day out with friends. What better way to escape the madness of wedding planning than to disconnect and reconnect out in nature with your friends and family? From start to finish, your time here will be a memorable adventure complete with road trip, fine dining, breweries and wineries, fishing, rafting, hiking, biking, camping, glamping, games, campfires, and s’mores contests.

Stay in Cabins

Renting a cabin is a good idea for a bachelor and bachelorette party. Because many people enjoy being in nature but may not enjoy sleeping in a tent, renting a cabin will allow you to enjoy all of the advantages of camping in nature without roughing it. There are 6 beautiful river cabins at the Resort which include many modern conveniences such as comfortable beds, air conditioning, indoor plumbing and kitchen facilities. Cabins sleep 4 adults and are located on the river. Use the cabins as a base to start your adventures on the river or at the local wineries.

Glamp the Night Away

If you want a true camping experience, you will want to rough it or glamp it! This means you will only take the bare necessities for living, such as a tent, sleeping bag, water, a few pairs of clothes and food. Some expert campers choose to catch their own meals by hunting or fishing and cooking their game or fish over the campfire. If everyone in attendance loves to rough it, a camping trip can make for a very fun party. Keep in mind you can rough it or add a touch of comfort by glamping it at the Resort. We can provide you with tent rentals, meals and activities, so all you have to do is celebrate!

River Rafting

Similar to beach hopping and pool lounging, rafting will allow you to be on the water most of the day. With river rafting comes whitewater rapids, and riding the rapids is especially exciting when it is a guided trip on the American River. We have rafting trips departing from the Resort on a daily basis and trips are offered for all levels of experience. Call us at 530-622-6700 to start planning your perfect bachelorette or bachelor party.

Wine Tasting/Beer Tasting

With over 20+ wineries located within an hours drive of the Resort, a wine tasting trip makes for a perfect bachelorette party. There are also a dozen microbreweries between Auburn and Placerville, and just like wine tasting, spending a day on a brewery tour is an awesome experience. We can organize your trips and provide you with a safe and sober driver and shuttle vehicle.
