The "Living on the Hard" sailboat
Unique Waterside Stay
We had a wonderful time in the quiet waterside serentity of Underworld Farm. Our sleeping arrangement was a little small for our 2 larger bodies but we enjoyed the ambiance and would definitely stay with the farm again! The grounds
are a beautiful space with lots of options for groups too. We thought we would love to come back with more friends again. The River and Lake were nice getaway from city life. Thank you for the amenities and vibes camp hosts!
The "Living on the Hard" sailboat
Cool unique experience
Awesome property located minutes from Wofford Heights as well as Kernville. Several reviews described the sailboat as “rustic” which is fairly accurate. You’re not getting anything luxurious here but it is definitely different, a cool unique experience, something for us as a family to look back on and be happy that we did it. The bed at the front of the boat was a bit cramped for my partner and I, and while it is memory foam I still had a difficult time sleeping. My back is very sensitive to anything other than my bed at home, so I know it is probably comfortable for others. Fair warning though for any tough sleepers like me, it’s like a 4 or 5 inch memory foam topper, not a full on mattress. My son is very tall and fit easily on the bench that serves as the second bed. It wasn’t terribly comfortable but if you double up on the cushions it’s better. It was super windy while we were there, you could feel it rocking in the wind, but the boat is secured nicely. If you’re looking for a unique place with a good amount of privacy, close proximity to the river and minutes from town, this is the place for you!

Good time! Nice walk to the lake too. Goats are cool.

Uniquely Perfect!
This camping experience truly had it all: close proximity to water, farm animals to admire, cool sleeping arrangements, fire pit, just enough seclusion, beautiful weather, plentiful photo ops and incredible stargazing! We stayed for 2 nights in March and it was just enough time to have a full day exploring, to cook on the campfire a few times and to see 2 sunsets & 2 sunrises. I am NOT a big camping person, and this spot made it easy for me to settle in and enjoy my time. Helpful tips for future folks who stay here - bring a head lamp, many layers (to wear and for bedding/sleeping), and chairs to use while sitting around the fire! I also would recommend that if 2 people are sleeping together in the main sleeping space, that they be very comfortable with being cozy. My 6'3/270 lb male fiance and I (5'4, 150 lb female) fit perfectly, but anyone larger than that combo may have a tough time. All in all, if you are thinking about staying here, just book it! You will have a memorable and relaxing time on Esteban's beautiful land!

The "Living on the Hard" sailboat
I loved staying in this boat. So romantic! The views are beautiful. My dog was interested in meeting the goats and horses. It’s definitely rustic and very private feeling, but still close to the highway and a little town. The drive up is really pretty too. I slept comfortably on the memory foam mattress on the bed. Played cards at the little table inside. Esteban was very responsive and understanding when I had to leave a day early. I will definitely be back.

Escape to the Southern Sierras!
Perfect for anyone looking for a novelty experience in nature, no matter which site you book. It's rustic but cozy, with probably the biggest perk being the views. It was pretty memorable to clink our drinks and play cards in the cabin of a sailboat, then wake to a sunrise coming up over the peaks of the Sierras right outside. Unreal!
From there you can go say hello to the horses and goats, then walk down to the river access close by. There seem to be an infinite number of things to do here despite the surrounding area being quiet. We'd definitely come back for a weekend escape. Thank you to Esteban for this wonderful experience!
