Malibu Creek Orchard Retreat

37mi from Arcadia · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
A retreat in a steep canyon with beautiful ridgelines in the Malibu Creek area. Private camp spots and hidden trails away from it all, but yet so close. Only 30 Minutes from the Santa Monica Pier or 15 Minutes to the beaches of Malibu, still it feels like being a world away. You wouldn't expect nature to be so pristine and exciting that close to the city. Prior to check-in guests will need to sign the property’s lease agreement which requires a $300 fully refundable security deposit hold on the travellers credit card. For larger groups of five guests and more the deposit will be 50% of the total rent.

Prospector Ranch is an 1800s style ranch located right next door to the acre used for Hipcamping.
The ranch is made up of their home and is also a venue for filming, photo shoots and small events. When not being used, camping guest are welcome to enjoy the area down around the authentic saloon, use the picnic area under large Oak trees and hike the property. We purchased the ranch 8 years ago and love being outside of the city in the mountains. Stargazing is a must when staying there!
The campsite is NEXT DOOR to Prospector Ranch, which is our 1800s-style ranch tucked away in the Santa Monica mountains, close to beaches, vineyards, amazing hiking, biking to the beach and the city! The wide open empty lot looks out at the beautiful mountains. Enjoy stunning sun sets and Picnic under the grand Oak Trees at the ranch or maybe come by the saloon next door for a cold beverage if we are around. :-). We are happy to point you in the direction for what ever you want to do.
There are so many things to do in Thousand Oaks!

Weekend Trip to Prospector Ranch
We had a really nice time on the ranch! Team was communicative and answered all our questions, and the location is beautiful! A great place to get out of the city to appreciate nature without a crazy commute.

Weekend Trip to Prospector Ranch
We had a great time in the “land yacht“. It was a fun throwback to the past. Very comfortable, clean and cozy. The secluded area was very relaxing and Meggan was an exquisite host.

A hidden-away gem. What a fun campsite! The vintage Airstresm trailer is in amazing shape. Decorated and arranged beautifully. Fabian put everything together so nicely. A bowl of fresh rosemary and lemons from their orchard on the table when we arrived. Coffee and cream packs in the fridge. Firewood and kindling and cooking utensils for the BBQ. Lovely little touches everywhere.
Thr amenities are amazing. Full power in the trailer and a bathroom with instant hot water. A smart space heater for the chilly evenings and Alexa to play music and turn on the outside string and accent lights made for a really great nighttime camp experience.
There is a hiking loop that is private to the site and takes you up into the hills with a bench at the top to watch the sunset it was gorgeous!
Overall we can't wait to go back. There is a cabin you can also rent for larger groups they are renovating currently, when they is done, a larger group of friends would make this an incredible site for a getaway weekend. Highly recommend!

The best airstreams near Arcadia guide
Where to go
Big Santa Anita Canyon
About 15 minutes north of Arcadia in the Front Country, Big Santa Anita Canyon (popularly known as "The Canyon") features miles of trails and lots of camping options. Primitive tent campsites are first-come, first-served—free permits may be required to camp. Among the six campgrounds in the canyon, many are equipped with picnic tables, firepits, concrete pads, and wood grills. After setting up camp, birdwatch or splash in the Big Anita Creek, or discover the beauty of the Sturtevant Falls along one of the 12 hiking trails.
Saddleback Butte State Park
An hour and a half north of Arcadia takes campers to Saddleback Butte State Park. Saddleback Butte is a granite mountain top that towers thousands of feet above Antelope Valley. Take the 2.5-mile hike to the peak on trails lined with creosote bushes and Joshua trees. Equestrians can ride on horse-friendly trails throughout the valley, as well. Pet-friendly campsites are first-come, first-served and can accommodate tents, RVs, and travel trailers up to 30 feet. Many campsites in the park also have fire rings and BBQ grills, as well as shade and wind blocks.
Topanga State Park
Topanga State Park sits in the Santa Monica Mountains near the Pacific Ocean. Explore geological formations like earthquake faults and marine fossil beds. Then hike some of the 36 miles of open grassland trails surrounded by live oaks. Mountain biking and horseback riding trails are also available—many lead to stunning Pacific Ocean views. Since Topanga Canyon is within Los Angeles limits, some trails, like the unpaved Mulholland Drive or Eagle Rock, offer views of the city. In nearby Malibu, campers can sightsee and beach camp at several campgrounds that offer drinking water, fire rings, RV hookups, showers, and flush toilets.
When to go
Campers can visit Arcadia year-round. The city has hot, arid summers with clear skies and very low humidity. Average temperatures are in the 80s. Long, cool winters are moderate and mostly dry. November through mid-March see average temperatures below 70°F. Campers may want to return in spring and fall to experience migratory wildlife, as well as desert, mountain, and valley foliage blooms.
