44mi from San Ardo · 1 site · RV · Tres Pinos, CAGolden Sky Retreat sits on a private stretch of rolling hills with wide-open valley views, peaceful quiet, and some of the clearest night skies in California. The land offers beautiful sunrises and sunsets, natural rock formations, gentle trails, and plenty of space to explore, relax, and disconnect.
Guests can roam the property freely — hike up ridgelines, enjoy panoramic overlooks, meditate, take photos, or simply sit back and enjoy the stillness. At night, the sky fills with stars thanks to extremely low light pollution, making this a perfect stargazing location.
