Amazing views

Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.

Beautiful natural campsites in the Valley of the Moon (Ojai Valley). Our sites are within an eighth of a mile of walking, running, biking, and riding trails from Ojai to the beaches of Ventura. On many days you can experience Ojai’s famous pink moments. You can hike the trails above Ojai, boat, eat, or picnic at Lake Casitas. Travel to nearby Ventura to shop, fish the pier, or take a deep sea fishing charter or Island charter to Whale watch or fish around the Channel Islands. Please note the aerial view of the camping area recently placed by Hipcamp is NOT AT ALL REPRESENTATIVE of the current camping sites and shows a photo that is many years old when the site was merely land. That photo is without any of the existing amenities or improvements. The actual sites are all Larger than Federal Park and Statepark guidelines, with averages of 20'x30' for campsites and 20'x40' for a long RVCampsite. We have planted many young trees and continue to plant trees and native shrubs around and near the sites. We have picnic tables, table coverings, fire pits, and camping rugs/footprints. There is also an outdoor shower, a shower tent with hot water, and an upgraded porta-potty with a sink. Note: During times when high heat is predicted, we strongly recommend that our Hipcampers bring pop-up shade tents or canopies for their sites. The Hipcamp is adjacent to our working ranch, and any photos of old sheds, trucks, a wood lot, or other equipment are NOT on the Hipcamp, but you will drive past that property to get to the separate Hipcamp area. Wineries, Farmer's Markets, Craft Breweries, dispensaries, and more are within 10 to 15 minutes of our site. Our location allows moments when you may see Hawks, Owls, Geese, Swallows, Robins, Bluebirds, and more. We offer both tent and RV camping. The Majority of our Guests love it here: "Vivian and Dave were exceptional hosts! Easy to contact and find our way to their property. Also gave us a plethora of places to go and things to do in the Ojai area. The area was open and spacious, and many trees and upgrades were in the works to make future stays more user-friendly. Big pluses were the shower and toilet facilities—much appreciated !!"

Site 2 Riverside

There was adequate space between sites. The directions made it easy to find. It was close to restaurants, a lake, freeway access. Host was helpful in guiding us to our site.

Site 3 Oak Grove Adjacent

Vivian and Dave's place is great. Perfect locations between Ojai and beaches of Ventura. The large, open space is great for camping and bringing in larger vehicles, like and RV. The outdoor shower and other amenities are great additions.

Site 1 Oak Tree

I am a regular camper on Vivian’s ranch as it’s nearby the Ojai Bike Trail and its a great place to stay. Last night I received a dozen fresh eggs. So thoughtful!

Site 2 Riverside

RV site#2

This RV #2 site itself was incredibly spacious, allowing for plenty of room to maneuver our RV comfortably. The highlight for us was the fantastic fire pit, perfect for cozy evenings under the stars. The views of the surrounding hills and breathtaking sunsets added to the overall charm of the location. Additionally, we found the site to be very convenient, with easy access to amenities and nearby attractions. The presence of sheep and horses added a delightful touch to our stay, making it feel like a true countryside retreat. And let's not forget the outdoor heated shower—what a wonderful bonus after a day of outdoor adventures. Overall, we highly recommend this RV site for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway with all the comforts of home and more. Vivian and David were gracious hosts.
