Our site is located just 12 miles from downtown Paso Robles and offers you a unique and private camping experience that we know you'll enjoy.

We offer only 1 campsite, so you will have privacy.

Amenities include: toilet, potable water, trash disposal, picnic table, area for a campfire (outside of a burn ban). We are also pet friendly!

Guests love staying here: "Wonderful stay! It was very private as we were the only ones on the site, no other campers, vehicles or other people were in our area at all the entire time. It really felt that we had space to settle and enjoy. The two dogs that live on site were a wonderful greeting and farewell crew! The portable toilet was clean and conveniently located on the site. Lots of vineyards to go wine tasting to that were a short drive away. Brought some twinkle lights with us that we put up to add more lighting and a special feel."

Kindred Acre Wood

We are living our dream after recently finding and purchasing this beautiful 10 acre parcel, one of the sunniest in the canyon with a bucolic creek that flows
all year. 
See Canyon itself
is a special place.
Home to a multitude of birds and
wildlife, a beautiful
scenic winding road, lush landscaping and a host of apple orchards.
 Thanks to the micro climate we have here, 
we grow some of the best fruit in the country.
 The coastal
canyon is just a short distance to the beach and 15 minutes into town but feels like a world away when you are here.
 The star gazing is incredible as the canyon walls block the light pollution and the milky way shines! 

Welcome to our little slice of 10 acre heaven in the Canyon! 
Just bring yourself and we have everything else!! 
Nestle up in the Cozy Gnome Home, a
1967 vintage trailer and listen to the symphony of frogs in the creek just outside your window. 
With love and labor... we gutted, redesigned and restored
this little trailer for the ultimate functioning space for two. 
Nice little kitchen with copper counters and
everything you need for cooking and dining. 
A Berkey filter for clean water,
hardwood floors and a comfy bed complete with organic mattress, down comforter and cotton sheets. 
Fold out dining table if you care to (or need to)
eat indoors.
There is also an outdoor kitchen space with a sink
(no hot water), gas grill,
propane burner (bring your own small canister)
and a patio table and chairs. We have a charcoal grill available too.

The creek runs mostly year round so feel free to get your feet wet on a hot sunny day. 
We also have an outdoor warm shower and sink as well as a hot water kitchen sink that you can
share with other campers. 
You are welcome to cruise the property and check out the chickens, ducks
and horses. 
We have three dogs on the ranch, a deaf and incredibly sweet pitbull ( he is a food thief so store food and garbage
as though raccoons were a problem), a curious and playful ranch dog Pluto (who will be your tour guide)
and a Boston Bulldogge, Astrid. 

We are surrounded by orchards which have some of the best apples and pears
in the country. 
Seasonally you can stop by many apple markets
and do a
tasting. 
We also have
a lively wine tasting venue less than a mile away. 
Avila Beach is a short 4 miles away and we are happy to share bikes if we have them available
but can't guarantee any. 
Our location
is a bikers' dream as the 13 mile scenic road takes you all the way into
SLO.

NOTE: 
If you want to bring others to camp, please note that
they need to bring their own tents and supplies, we only have room for two but welcome self sufficient campers to join you
:) also, we have a camp stove you can use to cook on
but bring your own little green propane canister.

There's extra bedding inside the benches in case you need it :)

I can't get over how cute this outdoor bathroom is!

All the lights keep it pretty well-lit at night too. 

The Rock Loft

This house is now 1 of 2 vacation rentals on the property. You will definitely notice the home's unique architecture as soon as you walk in. You will not find another home like this nor the massive 50 ft+ rock wall that provides cover to back side of the house.In 2016, after more than 50+ years operating as a working cattle ranch (Brookins Ranch) and a viewing attraction for Adelaida Wine Trail travelers, the property was unfortunately shut down and put up for sale.As a born and raised local, I had to purchase the property with the hopes of restoring it to its greatest and to allow others to enjoy what it has to offer. Since March 2017, my family and I have been working hard on the restoration - attempting to keep a lot of it's uniqueness while integrating modern technologies that will help expand the property's life. As such, we welcome you to come enjoy the experience as we continue to bring this property back to life!
