SLO Country Camp was once a part of the Serpa Ranch, one of the early ranches of the Central Coast. It’s remained a beautiful rural pocket in the Edna Valley area of San Luis Obispo. It’s quiet and peaceful, enjoy your morning coffee listening to all the birds waking up. There’s a private creek not far away that draws deer and wildlife. Just saw 3 deer run through out property 2 days ago. Owls, red tail hawks, eagles, squirrels and jack rabbits we see frequently. And you can listen to the coyotes howling at night. We’re surrounded by rolling coastal hills, vineyards, horses, cattle and also land apportioned to the Land Conservancy. Walk down our road and then left up to the top of the hill for a panoramic view of the entire area with the city San Luis Obispo at a distance. Our two sites are flat on decomposed granite pads. Both have excellent views and easy access to our common areas: wash/kitchen prep, and cold-water outdoor shower. Site 1 is best for trailers but Site 2 is adequate. Firewood is available for purchase at camp for those wanting to use the fire pit, or you can bring your own. The San Luis Obispo, Central Coast has so much to see and do! Hiking trails abound, my favorites are Bob Jones trail to walk or bike to Avila Beach, Johnson Ranch and Irish Hills for hiking hills, the Ridge trail for a view over Shell and Avila beaches, and the Harmony Trail to walk grassy cliffs by the ocean. Montano de Oro is only 15 minutes away with rocky ocean cliff trails that lead down to the coastline. We are 5 minutes from the beginning of the Edna Valley winery trail with 30 wineries or more I’ve lost count. Tasting and relaxing in great atmospheres. My favorites are Biddle Ranch, Talley, Mailene, Chamisal, Bailyanna... but there are so many more. We’re 10 minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo, 10–12 minutes to Avila or Pismo beaches. Morro Bay is 25 minutes. And we’re just 5 minutes off the 101 for easy access to traveling. The Central Coast has almost everything for fun, adventure and food. Surfing, biking, hiking, ocean kayaking, paddle boarding, golf, wine and beer culture, ranch lands, shopping and restaurants and we’re close to it all.

This was a great site and Ken and Judi were great hosts. It was quiet and there was some really great scenery around the camp. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location, gracious hosts!
The 360 degree view is fabulous. Ken and Judi are wonderful hosts. The site has nice features for such as a platform with table and chairs, flowers, solar lanterns, trash and recycle bins, water, shower and some suggestions for exploring the area. The location is near town but away from it all down a country lane with fields and some horses and cows. We visited in March and enjoyed the green hillsides all around. There are only two sites so we were able to enjoy privacy and quiet. It is centrally located to the natural beauty of the area. We hiked the Irish Springs Open Space Loop and later watched the sunset at Avila Beach. There’s also a Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods nearby. We will return!

I would 100% stay here again if I was spending time near Morro Bay. Me and the other camper hardly noticed each other and the tables, chairs, and fire pit made it glamping. Views were spectacular.

Countryside paradise!
SLO Country is the way to go! This place is absolutely beautiful. It is remote yet easily accessible and surrounded by breathtaking views of rolling hills, farmland, and California countryside. The hosts are friendly and welcoming and you can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into their setup. Their sites are private and well-maintained and they’ve thought of everything. We used this as a base for a trip to Pismo beach and left wishing we had more time to spend at the campsite!
