We arrived just in time for a quick stay. Unfortunately it rained right as we arrived but we still had fun playing games and enjoying the communal area. Nancy was super sweet and accommodating since we arrived at dusk. In the morning we fed the horse and donkey and did some bird watching. It's such a sweet piece of property, we hope to come back when the weather is nicer!

Beautiful setting near a very cute town. San Juan Bautista has great restaurants and a lot of history. Some of it troubling but all of it interesting, mass gravesite of 4300 Native Americans behind the mission. A peaceful site for camping or parking an rv. Weather couldn’t have been better in early November. Nobody else was there.

Lovely spot, kind host
The campsite was flat and had plenty of space, and the ranch is a lovely place. Friendly kitty, outdoor shower, starry skies. Very convenient to Sam Juan Bautista, and Nancy is a friendly and responsive host. We would stay here again :-)

Nancy is so welcoming and the horse and the donkey are so friendly and cuddly! We didn't want to leave. My 5yo wants to come back every weekend :) The camp area is comfortable, the kitchen and the dining area convenient. It's perfect for animal-loving kids. Also bonus point is even though you're camping with animals, there is no smell at all. Thanks for hosting us.
