Weekend Trip to Cross Bull Ranch/CBR

Lisa was a really good host. She was super friendly and welcoming and made it easy to arrive unassisted. I brought my two young daughters and they loved swinging on the rope swing and exploring the dry creek bed. We had a nice propane fire pit. (No real fires allowed). And when we needed bug spray I drove 5 minutes to pick it up and come back. feels removed from LAand yet not at all removed from civilization.

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

The team at ArtFarm is so amazing and accommodating. Very great place to unplug and enjoy nature.

3 nights at ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

My kids and I loved camping there. It had the right facilities we needed (pool, showers, full kitchen), hiking trails, fun loving dogs to play with and educational state parks within a short drive. All the staff was very friendly and helpful with any needs.

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

ArtFarm was a lot of fun for us and our teenage girls. We had great time with our doggo having free rein and our cozy cabin still had enough room for board games and meals. Communal kitchen and bathroom were clean and convenient. Our youngest really enjoyed feeding the goats and chickens. Hiking nearby as well. Staff super friendly and accommodating. First time using HipCamp, thanks for a great experience!

Weekend Trip to Magic Portal Stargazer's Retreat

Easy to find flat spot if you are camping on trailers or roof tents. Amazing views and great if you want to take your bikes. Would definitely camp here again.

3 nights at ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

Loved this place! The vibes and people were great! My dog could just roam around the property off leash. Zero cell service, but wifi works really well, so doesn't matter. It's great that it's only an about an hour away from LA. Will probably be back to disconnect and unwind.

3 nights at ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

We had a great time! It was so nice to let the kids wander without a worry and the same went for the dogs! The only downer was the cold weather which no one had control of! We will be back and it will be fun to see the new developments! Thank you Dom for being so nice and gracious!

Great stay for various forms of camping! Spent the night while car camping after other plans fell through - booked a bit late into the evening around 7-8pm and owner was still happy to have us. Site was beautiful at the top of a small hill; far out enough from the city that the sky was clear and the stars were bright. Wind is a bit strong during the windy seasons, as since it's at the top of the hill there is no protection; other spots were protected by the hill for those looking to go during a windy day. Sites are clearky marked and accurate. Woke up in the morning to some nearby sheep which was a welcoming suprise. Would definitely reccomend for anybody in the area or those just passing through. The area receives great data connection (t-mobile).

This campsite is basically a rustic Bohemian Village. It has all of the amenities you would hope for in the backwoods. We were car campers, but felt far away from city life. We did a moderate 2 hour in and out hike up to the fire road ridge… Took a 30 minute nap on top of a old-fashioned quail guzzler - enjoying the scenic surrounding… Definitely recommend for anyone looking for something different… Family friendly.

Weekend Trip to Cross Bull Ranch/CBR

Lisa set us up again for an amazing visit to her place this past weekend. We had warm heaters and clean bathrooms and made full use of the amazing space. The kids had a great adventure with the swing and running through the trails on the hill. What's great about the location is with how easy it is to get the central are in Topanga. On Saturday afternoon we took a field trip to the coffee shops, restaurants and had a great hike at Red Rock Canyon Park thanks to a recommendation from Lisa. We will all be returning back to Lisa's again this summer.

1 night at Magic Portal Stargazer's Retreat

The camp site had amazing views of the surrounding area, and the stars at night. The directions to the site were very good, although I do recommend using Google maps vs Apple as Google seems more precise. It was mid-March when we stayed so the weather wasn’t the best, and the wind was blowing! I would stay here again in the future.

So easy! Such a great time! Such a cool ride in too!

Weekend Trip to Magic Portal Stargazer's Retreat

Thanks so much for hosting us! We actually ran out of power in our 12 volt battery in the car and a gentleman on a Motocross helped us jump start the car. We'll have to come during a new moon so we can see better stars! It was still so bright.

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

The host were all very friendly and accommodating, the place is cool, rustic and far into the hills, just what we were looking for. Bathrooms were clean and lots of space to hike around.

Weekend Trip to Magic Portal Stargazer's Retreat

Spent the night with my wife here. Easily accessible via our Mazda CX-5 following the directions provided. Possibly a difficult path if after a hard rain. My only complaint is that the out-house was occupied by a creature when my wife went use it. Out of respect, we gave it its privacy for the rest of our stay. We had the entire campground to ourselves, minus the out-house. Did not do as much stargazing as I would have liked due to exhaustion from an impromptu hike at the nearby poppy reserve. The night sky was awesome except for the light pollution to the south from LA. There are ranches nearby so you do hear the occasional rooster and working dogs. You do hear the faint sound of vehicles off in the distance, but it’s mostly quiet and peaceful. A bonus were the open range sheep and goats in the area. They added a certain charm to our sunset/evening. Overall, it was a nice getaway from typical suburban and city surroundings.

1 night at Magic Portal Stargazer's Retreat

The Magic Portal is a truly unique and special spot in the Mojave Desert. The freestanding door frame, fittingly named the ‘Portal to Nowhere,’ adds a fun and creative touch to the landscape. My dog, however, wasn’t so sure about it and refused to walk through! I was lucky to catch a stunning sunset, and the peacefulness of the area made for a perfect stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind desert experience!

You ever get that feeling you’re being guided? That’s what I experienced which lead me here. Solo, I stayed for 4 nights and was welcomed into a location with expansive vision and creativity behind it. I see the vision behind it and I loved the potential of what this environment brings as a community stepping outside the programming. I parked my 22 foot RV van here and found they had little cottages and RV’s to also rent. This is a working ranch where dogs can be off leash. There’s goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, hiking, music, a tavern area with a pool table. This is a fun and creative property. A community that flows as people come and go. Saskia is a wealth of knowledge and experiences that I was honored she shared with me over meals and coffee. This was a really special and impactful experience for me and a highlight of my 45 day solo road trip with my dog Bodhi. Thank you for the opportunity to have experienced the ArtFarm and the community that you’ve brought together. This was an unforgettable NYE and I am grateful I shared it with these folks. Thank you for sharing yourself with me and Bodhi and welcoming us with such open arms.

Cross Bull Ranch was Originally A Chumash Indian Village. In 1926 "A Farmer" Named McDougal Came to CA from Santa Fe, NM in Search of A Better Life for He & His Family. Originally 40 Acres The Farm Provided ALL Produce, Dairy, Poultry & Beef to The Topanga Community via The "General Store" Until The End of WW2 IN 1945 when The American Public were Sold Post Military Chemicals as pesticides & fertilizers. It was Then That "Corporations" began Buying Up Fertile Farm Land, Clear Cutting, Mono-Cropping. Creating Corporate "Grocery Store" Chains DESTROYING "The Family Farm." My Son's Father & I Rescued This Land in 1998. It was Derelict. We were Handed A 1' HIGH FILE FULL OF Building Department "Violations" The Oaks were ALL Dying from Lack Of Fresh Air/Oxygen & Sunshine.

I Decided to "Open Up The Land" To Offer To "Others" to Leave Society & Devices Behind. Ground Themselves. FULLY IMMERSING Themselves, Family & Friends in Nature "Maskless." In Order To Breathe Fresh Air. Filling Their Lungs With Life Sustaining Oxygen & Bathe Themselves in Sunshine which Is A PowerFULL Disinfectant, Recharge "Their Souls" & Stimulating Their Third Eye/"Pineal Gland."
