7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents · Bodega Bay, CA

Located within 45 minutes of the wine country and 2 miles from the coast, our property is 400 acres of rolling hills and redwood groves, with a creek running along its base. With miles of trails meandering through quiet woods and meadows, you will be able to revel in the tranquility of a private preserve, without sacrificing easy access to some of Sonoma County's most famous attractions. A hundred years ago, this land was used to graze sheep. Remnants of the old fence lines can still be seen in places, along with old cement troughs. Since then, the land has been left to its own devices, passing through many hands, most famously owned by two brothers in the 1980's who built a truly amazing tree house in the forest which has been featured in several magazine articles. It was revamped and updated in 2016 by a master craftsman, using fallen redwood logs found on the property and is now a unique structural work of art, available for overnight stays. We produce 100% grass fed, dry-aged beef on our certified organic pastures and have a store on site if you would like to purchase delicious steaks, ribs, ground beef for hamburgers or some roasts to take home. Our cattle graze on the native grasses, never grain, and drink only water produced from our own springs. We also raise Kiko meat goats and produce pastured, certified organic duck eggs on a commercial basis. Whether it's surfing at sandy beaches, award-winning clam chowder, a wine tour, horseback riding or a hot air balloon ride you're after, you won't have far to drive if you make our ranch your base camp. You may see a family of deer appear suddenly, or a few Scottish Highland cows which we allow to roam freely over the property. There are over twenty species of wild birds that grace this protected spot, so bring your binoculars! A portion of your fee goes towards protecting native flora and fauna as part of our private wildlife preservation program. A limited number of private, widely spaced camp spots are available for visitors. The Eagles' Nest Treehouse (mentioned above) is very isolated and you may or may not even be aware that there are other people within miles of you. For those who value nature, seclusion, quiet and the artistry of old growth redwood, this is the place for you.

Great spot and within walking distance to town and the ocean. Farm animals were entertaining and the host was very kind. Bathhouse was clean and the hot tub was an added bonus. Great that a grill, gas stove, cooking supplies, and propane fire pit were provided! You will be in the company of a few other campers, but we didn’t mind and enjoyed some conversations with others. We’d love to come back!

Looking down upon Redwood Campsite #3. Note tent deck on right.

The host met us as we pulled up and gave us a quick tour of the area and amenities which was fantastic. It’s always a little weird thinking you are staying in someone’s yard but they had a great set up. The campsites were level and large enough for our three tents. We brought our own kitchenware but they had sinks, soap and anything we may have forgotten. Yes the rooster can be loud but I pretty much slept through it. Great spot!

Clean, quiet campground. Very friendly, communicative staff. We stayed in the Creekside spots. Sites were flat. Easy access to the creek, but you can only see the creek from Creekside #3. I also recommend the duck eggs and goat sausage from the mercantile!

Eagle's Nest Treehouse is truly magical! Lesley was such a kind, responsive, and accommodating host and made everything easy. We loved all the sights and sounds of the Highland cattle, geese, ducks, dogs, deer. We purchased meat and eggs from the ranch and made delicious burgers for dinner and scrambled eggs for breakfast. We roasted marshmallows and made s'mores around the fire pit. The treehouse itself is nestled in a beautiful and secluded wooded area, and is so well-appointed and cozy. I could not have asked for more and can't wait to come back.

Such a beautiful property! We soaked in the hot tub and dried off around the fit pit, the facilities are really well cared for. I didn’t realize we couldn’t drive onto the grassy areas but that’s on me, we parked our camper in the guest area and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Such an amazing experience to spend a night up in the trees. Sleeping in a treehouse has been one of my life long dreams and now we've done it. There's even a full bathroom up there!! Recommend to bring eye mask if you are a light sensitive sleeper as the place is almost 80% windows.

Pitch your tent under the cypress trees! Evening sun setting behind the trees. Late Summer

Tent camped for a couple nights here with the kids. Really easy spot - fire pit and hot tub and showers were wonderful, and Bolinas great as usual. Hosts were super kind and helpful. The space was filled with families with kids - which was great for us but it's definitely close quarters if you're not into getting to know your neighbors or hoping for silent mornings. Great spot, definitely recommend.

We were incredibly lucky to have found Sirima & Walter's farm. It was a last minute decision so we were fortunate they weren't completely booked. The property is beautiful and well maintained - the hosts responsive to our questions before booking - directions were very clear - and we enjoyed getting to know a bit more about them. Our camp 'mates' on the property were considerate and pleasant. Its a real gem of a place and we look forward to returning in the Spring!

Loved this spot! Such a treat to be able to camp here. We spent the last weekend with a group of friends here. The highland cows greeted us upon arrival. Campsite 3 offered great shade and close proximity to the porter potty. The ground beef and duck eggs were amazing. Would recommend and hope to return soon!

Very friendly hosts, and family friendly environment. Restrooms, shower, hot tub, hot water all on site, even a small kitchen and bbq if you don’t have your own cookware. Would definitely go again, and recommend this to anyone looking for a place to take your family, as the children will enjoy the animals, as well as the amenities.

Met my Dad and his friend when they were biking down the coast. It was super easy to book and for all of us to find. Lovely little place to camp set up within a little farm. Didn’t use the showers but the outdoor toilets, hot tub, and kitchen all worked great. We had pancakes for breakfast and watched all the sheep come out. There as a spot by the bathrooms for my dad to charge his bike battery.
