Great Moorpark site!
John was a great host, super chill and very helpful. I have a 4 door full-size truck with a 28’ travel trailer. He has a big U turn set up so entry and set up was a breeze. Trailer or motor home setup has a large gravel area with a sizable concrete pad giving you lots of options. He has a 50 amp outlet to use and even had a 50 to 30 amp adapter available for my trailer. The exit was a little tight but still easily achieved. There is also size able area you cold set up multiple tents. Great for larger groups or maybe Girl or Boy Scout outings. Our granddaughter enjoyed picking , and eating, some apples and pomegranates. Overall we really enjoyed our time at John’s. It can work for an overnight passing through or an extended stay. I would not hesitate to stay again.

Awesome spot to get an evening away from LA in a very chill environment! Plenty of space to set up tents, a picnic table, fire pit (+ wood) and grill, flush toilet and fenced well enough to keep dogs in. There were fresh apples and pomegranates we could pick from the trees when we visited in early October! John and his wife were both very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Would recommend if you're passing through the are or if you're an LA local looking for a local change of scenery for a night with your dogs and you don't feel like dealing with a super busy campground.

My little family loved our stay in our travel trailer at John and Vivian's ranch in Moorpark! John is a great communicator, as well as kind and accommodating. The property is beautiful and not at all far from common amenities in a city/town. At the same time it is so quiet and peaceful, such a charming spot! We picked some apples and pomegranates in the orchard, they were delicious:) You can hear roosters in the morning which adds to the country feel. Work with John on parking your trailer if it has hook-ups and you'll be golden. It's a tad tight with the fences around but we managed to park easily at night. Our dogs absolutely loved running around the secured/ fenced-in property which was an awesome perk. We would highly recommend staying at John & Vivian's charming ranch!

Perfect, little setup. John is a great host, helpful and friendly! Lots of room for any size rig and full hookups. Nice full service bathroom. Great fire pit area, too. Will definitely visit again.

John’s place is wonderful and very family friendly. I camped 3 nights with my nieces and nephew and we had a great time! John is very friendly and accommodating. He told us to help ourselves to any ripe fruit on his many fruit trees - apples, pomegranate, fig. The bathroom was clean w/ a nice big utility sink for washing dishes. He provided plenty of wood for the fire pit and we made s’mores one night. His place is also very close to “Apricot Lane Farms” which was featured in “The Biggest Little Farm” so we visited their farmstand on Saturday and were able to see some of their gardens. Hitch camp is also a short drive to the beaches down a windy and beautiful mountain road. Overall wonderful experience and I highly recommend this place!
