2 nights at Wise Oak Farm
Our family loved spending Thanksgiving together at this little compound. We enjoyed having both indoor and outdoor space to be together to celebrate. It was truly a special spot to be.

Weekend Trip to Wise Oak Farm
Stayed here with a friend visiting from out of town for a night and we really enjoyed our time at the Wise Oak Farm Tiny House. Between the house, rec room, barn and farm, there wasn’t a dull moment and it felt more like spending time at a friend’s home than an unfamiliar rental. The house is just a short drive to Sebastopol and Santa Rosa downtown for convenient access to restaurants and entertainment. But once at the house, you feel like you’re hours away from the hustle and have nature’s beauty to enjoy. The place is clean, well decorated and provided sufficient amenities. My friend and I also discussed staying here again for future visits. Thank you Daniel for providing a wonderful and thoughtful space.

Weekend Trip to Vineyard Camping at Bad Rat Ranch
Great place for a weekend trip. The tiny house was clean and comfortable. The vineyard is serene and close to several wine tasting places. My pup and I had a great time roaming around the ranch.

Weekend Trip to Wise Oak Farm
We had the most wonderful stay in this tiny home! The outdoor living space is perfect, and inside, the living area with a pull-out couch was so cozy. Every detail was thoughtfully decorated, and there was a place for everything- everything felt so cute and organized. Loved the two beds in the tiny home and then another whole space with the pull out couch- The spot is incredibly quiet and peaceful; waking up to birds chirping and hearing owls at night made it truly magical. We would absolutely come again and highly recommend this gem!

Unforgettable Experience ✅
Everything I wanted for a much needed peaceful getaway was met. The vineyard is as it was described and more. Amazing backdrop to an adorable and quaint little home. The window on the top overlooking the vineyard made sunrises and sunsets really special. A beautiful vineyard and little gazebo you can tell lots of life was put into this place. Ceviche the dog was so sweet and gentle. Marek was especially friendly and attentive. Great conversations with him. Checked in on me once a day to make sure all was well.
PRO: no mosquitoes! I was so happy to bring my own hammock and placed it under the big tree and loved picking some grapes hanging all over the big tree!
What an amazing first Hipcamp experience. So many great locations I was looking into but something about that tiny home and pictures of the vineyard really called out to me and I am SOOOO happy I chose this place. It will be hard to choose other places for my next trip. I know I will be back.

My partner and I stayed in Marek's tiny home and couldn't have had a better experience. We soaked in the hot tub, strolled around the ranch, and grilled in the evening. Also, the tiny home has a great view from the loft, we woke up to stunning sunrises both mornings we were at the ranch! The landscapes were stunning, and super fun to paint. Marek was great company, and we enjoyed chatting with him and learning more about his ranch and adventures. To top it off, his dog Ceviche is the sweetest :)

Weekend Trip to Wise Oak Farm
I was extremely impressed by how comfortable and cozy Wise Oak Farm was! The tiny house was well equipped, fridge was big enough to hold our snacks and beverages for one night, there was no coffee, but if you bring your own there is a nice french press. The composting toilet was in a completely separate building so although it was a bit smelly when we were there it did not bother us when we were in the tiny house or the rec room. Rec room was comfortable and I slept on the couch without taking it out so can't comment on the fold out bed comfort as I did not try it. We watched a movie on the tv and it was great! All in all a wonderful stay, and it was very close to the family event we attended so it worked perfectly for us.

1 night at Wise Oak Farm
Absolutely adorable tiny home with great amenities. We were welcomed by a beautiful great horned owl in the morning. Quiet area, comfy bed, and wonderful accommodations. Highly recommend. We enjoyed having a quiet breakfast in the open barn, while watching the chickens and other birds around the farm. Close to a great food and drink scene and nice hiking trails through wine country. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Vineyard Camping at Bad Rat Ranch
We had an amazing night at Marek's property. Both him and his dog were very friendly and welcoming. The tiny house had everything we needed for a night indoors after a few days camping. The horses, outdoor seating, and sunset were a plus! We'll definitely remember this spot for next time. Thanks Marek!

I just loved staying in The Tiny House. Both it and the cottage close by were really well appointed and well maintained. I spent a most restful and serene few days relaxing in the breeze by the green, berry-laden vines. So peaceful! Marek is a very generous and considerate host, with a ton of local knowledge - and I can highly recommend Bad Rat Ranch to fellow Hipcampers. There's something here for everyone. Thank you, Marek.

My best friend and I spend the weekend here for a girls trip and it was great! The area is super private with the fencing, clean, and beautiful in the garden. The barn is the perfect place to hang out and play games, and is even better at night with the lights. I would absolutely recommend this place for a nice getaway.

Marek and his dog Ceviche were so welcoming and the Tiny House was adorable. It has everything you need and the farm is a beautiful and peaceful setting. A highlight was getting to feed carrots to the horses on the neighboring property!

Very simple place to stay on a vineyard. Marek is a great host and is very friendly and generous. The place is pretty much exactly as described and pictured. It gets nice and chilly at night with good airflow so we hardly needed the AC unit, except during the daytime. Our dogs loved playing together all day and we enjoyed going to a wine tasting, petting horses and cows, and having a little cookout all together. We would stay again!
