Weekend Trip to Leap Lab Farm

Amazing location next to the Rocky Mountain, with city views and an active farm. Responsive hosts too. I recommend coming while there is still light out, though it is navigable at night.

1 night at Rancho Relaxo

Came here on a whim & have to say Joanie provides such a lovely camping opportunity, & is above all incredibly sweet & welcoming. Would recommend if you’re looking for an easy place to crash, & chill with a beautiful white horse named Lambchop

Weekend Trip to Leap Lab Farm

Just spent an amazing weekend camping at Leap Lab Farm with friends! The spot offers a peaceful escape in the Santa Paula hills, surrounded by nature and beautiful views. The hosts are super welcoming and have done a great job maintaining the farm despite recent fire damage. We loved the cool dinosaur exhibit and outdoor art really added a unique vibe. The campsite was spacious and clean, with a dome and electrical hookups that made our stay comfortable without feeling too “glamping.” Nights were perfect for stargazing under clear skies. Leap Lab Farm is great for groups and families alike there’s plenty to explore and enjoy for all ages. If you want a laid-back, nature-filled camping experience with some fun farm charm, this is the place. We left feeling refreshed and already planning our next visit!

3 nights at Arber-Moore's Ranch

I love this place. Dave and Vivian are great hosts, They’ve added a beautiful outdoor shower since my last visit. It’s quiet, under a canopy of stars and within a 5 minutes drive to Ojai. Hope you get to experience it. James Mac

2 nights at Ballard Walnut Grove

Wonderful trailer site. Very private. Love the area. So much to do!

1 night at Cuyama Badlands

We were unfortunately unable to stay due to an unexpected fire. Sarah was very responsive and accommodating by refunding us. We would try to stay there again if the opportunity presents itself.

3 nights at Rancho de Granville

We had a lovely time at Catherine’s place. The grounds are fabulous. The camping spot was perfect. Great shade and beautiful scenery. We loved petting the horses and chatting it up with the chickens. Only 20 minutes to the beach and 10 to Ojai.

2 nights at Arber-Moore's Ranch

Very nice and quite place, it was as described. Meet host David , very kind and friendly, it was ready to help in case needed. Soon I will be back Gabriel Goldsman

Weekend Trip to Los Encinos Ranch in Ojai CA

Amazing area! Very secluded, quaint. I loved the weekend we stayed here, very unique area in such a nice town. And the host is above and beyond on her hospitality! Would highly recommend checking. It out

Weekend Trip to Cuyama Badlands

Loved Songdog Ranch’s land so much! Will be going back in the future!! The site we chose was super spacious and had a great view of the land, sunset, and stars at night. Especially if you are from the city this spot is perfect for seeing a starry night! We got to meet Jen and Jim; they were super nice and welcoming! The shop on property was perfect for ice and anything small you may have forgotten to pack or didn’t think you needed before getting to your site. The back of the property leads into OHV property for your off roading desires! While we didn’t part take in OHV it was awesome to be able to explore the property and surrounding areas while we were beating the heat! Also, if you didn’t know Lompoc is close enough for you to see launches they may be doing, so we got to see a satellite launch our first night. When staying here definitely look up if there are going to be launches during your stay! Lastly, depending on your cell service provider the service CAN be spotty at times but was enough to text and call if needed. This was a perfect opportunity to have an unplugged weekend!

Weekend Trip to Lisa S.’s Land

My son and I have stayed in the bunkhouse multiple times and have always felt so welcome! It is just the right size for us and Lisa is always so attentive and kind. The backyard is truly a beautiful location and so peaceful to wake up in. If you are looking for a simple and cozy place to stay near all of the action this is truly the place! PS - aspen is the sweetest little dog :)

Weekend Trip to Arber-Moore's Ranch

Their place was absolutely amazing. We loved it there! It’s just enough to be camping, but enough amenities is to be comfortable. Plenty of shade and water available and not too crowded.

Weekend Trip to Leap Lab Farm

Private space near a community, which is refreshing. The dome is useful and nice to be around. Lots of airplane action from the small airport. Beautiful overlook. Close to Ventura.

Weekend Trip to Freedog Farms @ Cactus Flower Ranch

Wow, what a cool experience! This is not your run of the mill spot, it’s magical especially if you can make it to one of the more remote sites. The morning views of the clouds and mountains are second to none. We had no idea but they greet you with craft beers! Stoked that we didn’t see that in other reviews before booking. Hosts are great, beers are cold, and the area is beautiful. We feel so fortunate to have spent two nights here, didn’t want to go home. We’ll be back, keep the kegs full Darin 😃🤙🏼

Weekend Trip to Freedog Farms @ Cactus Flower Ranch

Beautiful scenery and lots of privacy. Great people. Awesome for kids and dogs.

Weekend Trip to Arber-Moore's Ranch

Super nice hosts. The sites are not perfect. Most of them have very little coverage and are very exposed to sun. Shower is great. Site #1 is definitely the best.

Weekend Trip to Cuyama Badlands

I booked this camp site last minute as halfway point between destinations and it ended up being one of my favorite camp sites ive ever been to. The host made sure to make her way out and greet us and the views were amazing

Weekend Trip to Freedog Farms @ Cactus Flower Ranch

I don't know where to start, but this place rules. Lots of beautiful views, secluded camping spaces and freedom for our golden retrievers, Cody and Hazel. Darin and Sierra were marvelous hosts from their initial welcome to our tour to our choice of camping spot. The facilities were perfect for a weekend getaway. The mineral baths were a nice cool break from the heat. They recommended Gino's Pizza in Buelton and we do too!! Get the Gino's Special. We've already begun planning our return!! So fun!!

Weekend Trip to Cuyama Badlands

Our family and friends loved the song dog ranch double fire site. We loved the space/the privacy/ and the soaking tub. The kids enjoyed hiking/ playing in the tub. The ranch is very well cared for and beautiful! We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Arber-Moore's Ranch

Driving through on a road trip. Parked here for the night. It was great. Lots of space. Scenery is beautiful. The hot shower was fantastic and so far the only port-o-potty that smelled nice. Came out to greet us to make sure we had all we needed. Thank you Vivian for the wonderful hospitality.

If you've ever wondered what it might be like to camp on the moon, this is it. Completely removed from civilization and surrounded by a barren nature that is alive with the subtle presence of the universe. Seasonally, Spring wildflowers burst across the landscape. Cave paintings of Chumash Indians at Painted Rock remind us of those who lived before us. **Read on for more details.** This is our home but we love to share our life in the outback. We believe it will give you a better appreciation of life's simpler side. That being said, and to maintain the balance here at home, we'd appreciate if you keep your dogs in your car until you get to your site. Our offerings include fresh air and sunshine, amazing night sky, endless views, and plenty of space and privacy to enjoy your moments in nature. You'll find our amenities and activities puposefully sparse here. Upon booking, there are about 5 miles of dirt road on the property that you are welcome to explore on foot or by bicycle. Rustic is the theme here. There is no shower, no wifi, and no electricity available, but you will enjoy your own private spigot and the cellular service is acceptable. For any sites located south of Ballinger Wash, your vehicle length is limited to 22' and no more than 4' overhang from the rear axle, so you don't get stuck in the crossing and block access for others. Towing services are 1-3 hours away. Our Songdog Camps are sparsely scattered atop a 200 foot mesa that looks west over a valley offering stunning desert sunsets and amazing stargazing. These UPPER SITES are NOT OHV friendly, but any of our canyon bottom sites are a great base for your riding adventures up in Ballinger Canyon OHV. We'll be happy to recommend a site for you. **Forest Service law enforcement is actively ticketing unplated OHV on Ballinger Canyon Road. Be sure to know and abide by the laws.** Our friendly cancellation policies vary between 24 hours for simple campsites and 72 hours for our Glamp sites and Group sites.

Arber-Moore's Ranch

6 sites · RVs, Tents22 acres · Oak View, CA

Beautiful natural campsites in the Valley of the Moon (Ojai Valley). Our sites are within an eighth of a mile of walking, running, biking, and riding trails from Ojai to the beaches of Ventura. On many days you can experience Ojai’s famous pink moments. You can hike the trails above Ojai, boat, eat, or picnic at Lake Casitas. Travel to nearby Ventura to shop, fish the pier, or take a deep sea fishing charter or Island charter to Whale watch or fish around the Channel Islands. Please note the aerial view of the camping area recently placed by Hipcamp is NOT AT ALL REPRESENTATIVE of the current camping sites and shows a photo that is many years old when the site was merely land. That photo is without any of the existing amenities or improvements. The actual sites are all Larger than Federal Park and Statepark guidelines, with averages of 20'x30' for campsites and 20'x40' for a long RVCampsite. We have planted many young trees and continue to plant trees and native shrubs around and near the sites. We have picnic tables, table coverings, fire pits, and camping rugs/footprints. There is also an outdoor shower, a shower tent with hot water, and an upgraded porta-potty with a sink. Note: During times when high heat is predicted, we strongly recommend that our Hipcampers bring pop-up shade tents or canopies for their sites. The Hipcamp is adjacent to our working ranch, and any photos of old sheds, trucks, a wood lot, or other equipment are NOT on the Hipcamp, but you will drive past that property to get to the separate Hipcamp area. Wineries, Farmer's Markets, Craft Breweries, dispensaries, and more are within 10 to 15 minutes of our site. Our location allows moments when you may see Hawks, Owls, Geese, Swallows, Robins, Bluebirds, and more. We offer both tent and RV camping. The Majority of our Guests love it here: "Vivian and Dave were exceptional hosts! Easy to contact and find our way to their property. Also gave us a plethora of places to go and things to do in the Ojai area. The area was open and spacious, and many trees and upgrades were in the works to make future stays more user-friendly. Big pluses were the shower and toilet facilities—much appreciated !!"

PICKING YOUR CAMPSITE: When we are not sold out we place campers at campsites on a first-come-first-serve basis upon arrival. If we are sold out we will pre-pick your campsite based on where we feel each of our campers will be happiest given their individual camp set up, i.e. Tent, Van, Trailer, RV, and size of the group. All of our sites are spread out with plenty of space for social distancing. DRY CAMPING: All of our sites are DRY camping (no water/electricity.) We provide a picnic table and one umbrella and a propane fire pit with a propane tank. Please bring additional shade structures if you think you’ll need more shade.

There is a semi-steep hill up to our upper property if you're towing a trailer you will need a powerful vehicle to make it up the hill. Sites on our lower property by the common area are easily accessible with views up the hills/mountains but come with some highway noise. We imagine it sounds like waves crashing and call it the "steel river." For your private camp area, please bring your own drinking water, water to wash dishes and if think you'll need: chairs, camp tables, umbrellas or shade structures, trash bags/cans (throw your trash in the dumpster out side our entry gate when you leave.

They are pumped clean every Thursday and are generally very lightly used. If you don’t want to use the porta-potties we recommend/encourage you to bring your own camp toilet, bags, and absorbent. WILDLIFE: Our dogs do a great job of fending off the resident bobcat and coyotes on the front portion of our property and by the barn, if they are barking in the night there's a reason. If you end up camping on the front portion of our property and think their barking will affect your sleep, bring earplugs ;-). Drinking-WATER, Dish Washing Water and Shade: All of our sites are dry camping i.e. there is no potable water available. Please bring all your own drinking/dishwashing water.

Cold Mineral Dunks and Hot Outdoor Mineral Shower: We have huge aluminum cowboy cold dunk tubs available at what we lovingly/jokingly refer to as our very own “Cactus Flower Beach,” which is not a real beach… It feels like a beach because we’ve decked it out with lounge chairs, a daybed cabana, 150K pounds of sand and tiki-hut umbrellas. It’s fun to hang out there when it’s hot under the shade of the pepper trees. NOTE: The Outdoor Shower screening is a tad see-through. If you are shy, wear a bathing suit. Please limit showers to 3-5 minutes max. Mineral Water Definition: Water from a mineral spring or well (i.e. our well) that contains various minerals, such as salts and sulfur compounds.

Blue Sky Center

31 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents267 acres · New Cuyama, CA

1948- On January 1, 1948 a wildcatter named George Hadley, who had been oil prospecting in the valley for 10 years, made the first oil strike in the Cuyama Valley. Richfield Oil Company soon moved in and extracted nearly 300 million barrels of oil in just a few short years. To accommodate an exploding workforce in the early 1950s, the company built the town of New Cuyama, its infrastructure, public buildings, the Cuyama airstrip (L88) and all the industrial structures that are now home to Blue Sky. Richfield Oil Company, later merging with Atlantic Oil Company forming the Atlantic Richfield Oil Company (ARCO), created high-paying jobs, a safe and prosperous community, and developed schools, churches, and recreational areas for the employee-residents.1973- With dwindling production in the area and new discoveries in Alaska, Atlantic-Richfield Oil Company put the town of New Cuyama and its associated infrastructure up for sale. Word of an entire town for sale made its way to entrepreneur, Russell O’Quinn of the Foundation for Airborne Relief (FAR) and Mildred Dotson, a wealthy widow from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The two worked together to acquire the townsite and adjacent land. O’Quinn, an aviator, inventor, and test pilot, aspired to use the New Cuyama airstrip and facilities as a base for humanitarian relief and a non-profit trade school. Though not fully realized, FAR’s primary vision included utilizing converted military aircraft to airlift food and medical supplies to developing countries and global disaster areas. Dotson had loftier goals. Her plans included an 18-hole fly-in golf course, expansion of the Buckhorn Restaurant and Motel, and a 40- to 50-acre lake for amphibious landing and water sports. 1986- Another visionary, Harry Kislevitz, inventor of the popular design tool Colorforms® and founder of Future City/Villages International, sought to develop the site as a “City of Friendship,” an all-electric village of 5,000 earthen homes. The dwellings were to be designed by Nader Khalili, an Iranian-born architect who specialized in earthen structures, worked with NASA on prototypes for lunar homes and received an award from the United Nations for his work towards the development of low cost, sustainable structures for human shelter in impoverished and disaster prone environments. One 628-sq-ft Khalili prototype remains on the property today ("the Cantina"). Khalili went on to form the California Institute for Earth Art and Architecture, Cal-Earth, in Hesperia, CA.1993- Recognizing the transformative potential of clean, solar power and the attractiveness of a rural destination, entrepreneur Mike Nolan worked to develop the Solar Skypark and Big Sky Guest Ranch with Santa Barbara Architect, Barry Berkus. The Sky Park included plans for sixty-five fly-in residences on one-acre lots powered completely from clean, solar energy. The Big Sky Guest Ranch was intended to function as a clubhouse for Skypark residents complete with an equestrian center, a small subsistence farm, pool and plenty of enriching recreational activities. 2012- At the end of 2011, the Zannon Family Foundation made a long-term investment in acquiring the New Cuyama Airport property with the vision of rehabilitating the site to be a low-cost resource for programs and organizations working to advance sustainable living practices and technologies. Plans began soon after towards developing a framework and organization to develop the space and coordinate with prospective programs and institutions. In 2014 Blue Sky Sustainable Living Center ("Blue Sky Center") received 501(c)(3) not-for-profit status, endeavoring to reclaim this property for the public good. Today, Blue Sky Center provides unduplicated services and technical assistance to support small businesses and entrepreneurs as well as the local food system, with core work focused on community research and advocacy led by Cuyamans.
