13 acres in a very secluded location away from city noise. But still just minutes from Hanford where you can find anything you need to shop for. Great camping area on SEASONAL Kings River. No other houses in view since we are located between 20 acres of almond trees and 30 acres of walnut trees. Very safe location with security in place.

2 nights at Vinyl Vineyards Glampground

We had a fantastic time at vinyl vinyards. It was not only beautiful but it had everything we needed. There was only one thing that might have enhanced our stay. Our host let us know in advance that there was a heater in the camper but we couldn't get it to work. Other than that, we really enjoyed it! Would love to go back!

Stayed in the Montana RV and couldn’t have been happier. The location is perfect for a day at Pinnacles and the property itself is beautiful and made for two wonderful, laid back mornings on the deck and exploring the ranch. Would definitely recommend.

Mona’s place was amazing. It was so peaceful and comforting. The trailer was great and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Dale was so welcoming and was around just in case we needed anything. The kids loved the river and had a blast. I can’t wait to stay here again.

1 night at Country Comfortable

Lovely gem of a place! Easy to find. It was fun to stay in a BIG trailer with pullouts after spending days in a camper van! Property is fenced. Very cool little compound located right on the king river. Swimming in the river was heavenly. Communicating with Mona was great over the app. Dale met us upon arrival and was a great, kind, helpful host and fun to talk to. We were only passing through to the coast on this trip and only stayed a night. If I had my way we’d have stayed a few more days and enjoyed the river and the peace and quiet. Would be a great place for family get- togethers. I would highly recommend this place!

This place was perfect for our family. Great location. Not too far from town for all the conveniences but also far enough to see every star away from the city lights. The site had everything you would need. Very nice bbq grills, lights, fire pit, frisbee golf, corn hole, etc.

Weekend Trip to Vinyl Vineyards Glampground

We had a very quick one night trip at the Billie Holiday Trailer and the only regret is that we wish we had more time! We were visiting Paso for an event and we did not get to explore too much but we will definitely be back! We absolutely loved the trailer. It was very clean, cozy and warm with the heater. The vintage style appliances were adorable and the bathrooms/showers were clean and so cute. The land is absolutely breathtaking and it looks so fun to explore. The sunset and sunrise was gorgeous! It took us 10 minutes at most to get to the Event Center in town and the drive was beautiful. We told all our friends about this cute place and we will be back!

What an awesome experience! We had a bit of a rainy weekend, and thought what better way to spend the weekend than this beautiful HipCamp under the stars. We enjoyed a complimentary bottle of wine while listening to the provided vinyl records. The place was clean and well decorated! The host responded quickly when we asked how to purchase another bottle of wine, even offering to deliver it to our site while it was raining. Definitely would recommend!

We had a great time at Vinyl Vineyards! This was my first time staying in one of the vintage trailers, but second stay overall. The trailer was very nice and the propane heater worked very well. It was in the 30°s at night and we were comfortable.
