On weekends, you can wander over to Josie’s Hideout Saloon, our on-site bar and restaurant, known for its live music and western character.

Welcome to Nopalito Farm! We’re so happy you’ve decided to spend some time on this beautiful property! In case you’re interested, here are a few interesting things about our farm. Nopalito Farm has been in operation since late 2014, but the property itself has been a working farm for over 50 years. Lemons and avocados were the primary crops from the 70’s through the 00’s, and are still prominent throughout our 15 acres. Our predecessors then diversified the growing operation by planting a wide range of fruit trees ranging from guavas and passion fruit to peaches and figs. For a decade, hops were grown on 2 acres and were sold to breweries throughout southern California. We’ve since replaced the hop yard with perennial flowers, but continue to cultivate a wide variety of delicious fruits.

We treasure this house which is nestled amongst the trees and has so many beautiful birds that visit. Many turkeys love to stop by too!

Me and my partner had a lovely stay at Hellya cabin! We loved this spot especially for its view and quiet atmosphere. Parking was very close and we had a good distance from the other cabins. Keep in mind there are no heaters in this cabin but the building retained heat well at night and was cool during the day. Stuart and Janel’s dogs greeted us as we drove up and after a few barks they greeted us with snuggles! They were great company on our weekend trip. Thank you Stuart and Janel for letting us enjoy your land!

1 night at Campo Nopalito

Jacob was an absolute delight! Charming man whose genuine demeanor highlighted the stay. Offered hospitality without overstepping. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and the dog on site is a sweetheart. Quiet, relaxing, and private. Highly recommend.

Amazing kitchen. Had a chance to use the pizza oven, which was great!

Weekend Trip to Campo Nopalito

I loved my stay in the Roadrunner Cabana! It was magical and everything I needed when it comes to glamping. It was the right amount of private, cozy, and relaxing. The kitchen was fully stocked with equipment (great for my partner who loves to cook). We now have a pizza oven on our bucket list because we loved Jacob’s so much! It was an amazing time! I’ll be back!

Our stay at the Roadrunner Cabana was perfect in every way. Jacob has done a great job of providing a top-tier experience. The lodging was very comfortable, with a soft bed and cozy sheets. The A-frame provides a great view with the door lifted open, especially at night when you can see the stars. The communal spaces are fantastic as well. As others have mentioned, the outdoor shower is amazing, providing water as hot as anyone could want and at a strong pressure to boot. The kitchen was my favorite part about this stay. The stove and oven are commercial grade and a joy to use, there is a massive Santa Maria-style grill, but the star of the show is definitely the wood-fired brick pizza oven. Jacob provides a chance to play around with equipment that would be impractical for many homes. He's also a great host who is always available to assist campers and provide a friendly, easy-to-talk-to presence. The site itself is easily accessible, no AWD or 4WD required. I definitely plan on booking again in the future!

It’s the second time my husband and I stay at Nopalito farm - and we were not disappointed ! I arrived tired and sick of the city, and left after a couple days rested and happy. Jacob is great host, super nice and welcoming. We had the chance to try some passionfruits from the farm - they were delicious. The beds are so cozy, and the outdoor shower so so nice ! Highly recommend !!

4 nights at Hideout Mountain Lodge

The view is superb! And the owner is a very nice person. For back country, it’s close enough to the little town on Santa Ysabel for pie and sandwiches that grabbing those is an easy drive and well worth it.

2 nights at Svatantria Boutique Retreat

Location is beautiful, and the hosts have done so much work to make the property attractive and restful. The cabin was perfect for us, but others should know that the structures are very rustic and basic. The bedding and mattress were nice. People should prepare for a more camping-like experience and they will be happy. The kitchen and bathroom would be more useable with a few tweaks, which we will let the hosts know about. Definitely bring flashlights and possibly even your own camp stove if you want to be able to easily boil water. The hike to the cabin really is 5 minutes or less, and you should plan to carry your things over to it. The solar wasn’t functioning at the time of our visit, so we got by with battery packs charged at the house, which is a compromise for the mini-fridge since it can only power it for a little less than 24 hrs.

Jacob's place (Nopalito Farm) was incredible! By far THE BEST glamping experience we have ever had. From the beautiful A-frame 'tiny-homes' that open up on one side, to the fully equipped and spacious outdoor kitchen, to the gorgeous setting amongst fruit trees, to the refreshing and luxurious outdoor shower (plenty of privacy awesome for night-shower stargazing), to speaking with Jacob himself (cool guy). We loved it! Clean, gorgeous, well-equipped, extremely comfortable 'camping.' We will most certainly be back. Thanks jacob!
