The stay was perfect. Fire pit under the oak tree was so nice. The tire swing was so entertaining for my 3 year old. Site 1 is fully encapsulated by trees. The other sites look more open. Owners are really nice. For site 1 if you have 4x4 you can get there but you need to be good driver and brush will probably hit the side of truck. my 2017 Colorado w small rack just barely made height and sides got brush slightly scratching sides which I don’t mind as my truck is beat up. I would go back for sure. Creek was not running even after a recent big rain but not a deal breaker. No cell service for T-Mobile

My wife and I’s camping experience was fantastic! A beautiful piece of land with sun rays shooting through the trees and stars peeking. Frank was so kind and pleasant to talk with. Our dogs had an amazing time as well. There are plenty of trees in the camp so there’s no shortage of leash tie off points:) I fully recommend camping here.

It was exactly what we wanted, a private campsite with zero hassle. A great place to get away for a night. We didn’t see the goats, but still had fun.

Nice camping spot 40 minutes from my house for a quick night with the kiddos. We did not get to see the goats. Maybe next time.

Easy to follow directions, super flat, no leveling needed. The RV area is not super large, and even though all the spots were filled, I still didn't feel too close to neighbors. We had a nice spot with lots of trees, close to vineyards, plus trash and recycling right there. 5 stars!

John was friendly and helpful with advice on spots, when we arrived. Will be honest, not quite what we expected when we arrived. However, once we settled in we discovered this place was comfortable and well situated for what we had planned. No frills here but worked well for us. Has more of a cozy neighborhood feel.

Can’t wait to visit again! The tire swing, picnic table, fire pit (with wash out water), and goats and pups?! The list of fun amenities was so lovely! My 6 year old animal lover adored our stay.
Our site was well shaded and clean! The neighboring bird sanctuary does make for some goofy sounds but we had fun imitating them!

We loved our site. Perfectly quiet and the other guests were super friendly. I would totally stay there again. Very conveniently located by the wineries and away from traffic. The WiFi was also great which was a huge unexpected bonus. We were there with 3 other RVers and it worked wonderfully. Thanks!

We liked how remote it was. But it is not, so very close to town. Very nice, and tucked away. All the campers we came into contact with, were very friendly, including, John the owner!! We Will be back!!

It's our second stay at this location. Changed management but still a great spot. Secluded, shaded, tire swing and goats. Great for kids. The dogs on property are super friendly and slept at our site both nights. They will bark sometimes which can be annoying but we felt safe. The goats can sometimes be tricky to find. They are usually up by the house and can be lured back to camp with some leaves. The bathroom is a bit of a walk so a small travel potty can be helpful for young kids. The drive down the little hill to the closer parking can be a little tricky. 4 wheel drive is best and avoid the bigger dip on the hill. Having someone else guide can be helpful. If ypu are worried, there is some flatter parking with a little further of a walk. The wagon is very helpful for transporting gear. We will be back!

It's a simple spot. Easy access but the driveway is steep and wouldn't be fun with a larger trailer pulling off that fast road. Like the host says. It's a safe place to stay for the night or 2 before continuing on. We used our trailer as a cheap way to stay near the beach and surrounding area vs having to pay crazy hotel prices on a holiday weekend. The grounds need to be clean. I would've not been happy had I brought my dog with the amount of weeds that could've gotten in her fur. It's again cheap and simple. Shaded in the evening but not most the day.

We wanted a last minute Memorial Day weekend site to test out our new van and this was perfect. Pretty views, is on a road but a private one making driving in and out simple. Hosts were very sweet! We could hear peacocks cawing as the sun went down and this hill overlooks a trail. Great for a quick set up and a fire pit - the water jugs to put out the fire pit were very thoughtful too.
