Amazing glamping spot. So much was taken care of that I didn't need to worry about putting things together. This made the experience even more peaceful and calming. Sana and Jairo were super helpful during booking, arrival, and the stay. I highly recommend this spot to anyone. It truly made for some wonderful family memories.

Weekend Trip to Santa Cruz Mountain Camping
The tent and bed were very spacious. The view of the stars at night and the mountains in the mornings was beautiful. In November it was very cold at night as expected but it was much easier to stay comfortable and warm here than in a regular tent.

Weekend Trip to Venture Retreat Center
The place is truly magical surrounded by nature. So many spots to relax, meditate, soak in a pool or hot tub or warm up by the fire pits. Our glamping tent was magical and had everything you need. We definitely will be back, but This time with a group of friends to enjoy the property with a group of friends.

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views
We came for a weekend where it was rainy and slightly cold, yet still had a magical, rejuvenating, wonderful experience. The animals around the farm, the views, the cozy tents, all culminate to make a magical and unique experience. The hosts were very friendly and super responsive-this is a very special place, can’t recommend enough!

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views
Loved everything about Sana and William’s - we were greeted by Meowsicle the cat upon our arrival, we enjoyed beautiful sunsets over the forest and ocean views straight from our tent, and ate farm fresh eggs every morning! We also loved being visited by the friendly goats (who loved chin scratches). Sana and William were both very friendly and helpful whenever we needed them. I would absolutely stay here again.

The tent cabins are built on the side of a steep hill so the trails down to them are rugged, but there are steps and railings to assist. The cabins are very comfortable and have everything you need. The goats are fun to interact with. The eggs from the chickens are really good. The view is spectacular and the hosts are extremely accommodating.

Weekend Trip to Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views
my partner and i stayed at Sana's camp for our anniversary, and it was the most perfect overnight trip to celebrate! even before arriving, Sana had been very responsive to any questions i had and was very prompt with responses throughout our stay as well. the moment we arrived, we were greeted by their friendly cat (the best way to start the stay) and then Sana welcomed us and showed us around. we were immediately enamoured with the charm of the place, and the view from our tent was so beautiful! the campsite amenities were thoughtful, comprehensive, and clean. i don't think i'd ever been camping with such clean and tidy amenities before! and they even had complimentary eggs for us from their chicken coop! so sweet! each tent was far enough from each other to offer ample privacy while also not feeling too isolated. our tent specifically came with a rope hammock to lay in! this is indeed a very romantic spot so perfect for any couples celebrating. i would definitely visit again and recommend to my friends! thank you Sana! :)

I stayed in Tent #2 with my sister and it exceeded our expectations. The view was unreal, everything was so clean, bed was comfortable and only a short little inclined walk to the bathroom. William came and lit the fire for us at the lookout so we could watch the sun set over the pacific. I highly recommend this site!

1 night at Kings Mountain Camp w/ ocean views
From the minute I pulled in I was I was greeted by the kindest soul Sana that took me to my canvas tent! This place has everything you can imagine and more! Bed was comfortable. Everything was clean ! The bathrooms and shower was equipped with everything you needed. And the common area has bbqs , games, kitchen area and a lookout for a bonfire. The sunset was absolutely gorgeous from the deck…overlooking half moon bay. I slept with the tent unzipped the entire night! The fog rolled in the morning but still made a beautiful view. So many trails to explore all around ! I would definitely stay there again !

It rained while we were at Fancy Camp but luckily the tent was cozy and dry. The eggs were delicious (we bought more at the farm stand) and the tent had everything we needed. Sana and her partner take lovely care of their property. It was a nice place to stay!

Where to go
Castle Rock State Park
With one of the highest elevation points in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Castle Rock Park is an exciting destination for rock-climbers, hikers, cyclists, and horseback riders. The trail system covers mountain and forest landscapes, allowing campers to admire the area’s redwood and black oak forests. Some backcountry tent camping sites are available within the park, and early reservations are encouraged to score a spot. Note that there’s no cell service inside Castle Rock Park.
Monte Bello Open Space Preserve
With over 3,000 acres of protected open space, Monte Bello is the perfect place to explore the region’s mountain and grassland scenery. Designated campsites inside the preserve allow campers to catch a glimpse of local species like mule deer, wild turkeys, and California scrub-jays. Pick up a permit to camp at Monte Bello, or make a day trip to enjoy the park’s hiking, biking, and equestrian trails.
Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park
Big Sur is a stretch of rugged mountains and expansive Pacific Ocean views that runs from Carmel to San Simeon. Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park offers scenic hiking trails, birdwatching opportunities, and an array of camping opportunities. Find tent campsites along Big Sur River, as well as a larger campground for tents and RVs. A central lodge with accommodations, a grocery store, and cafe makes it easy to stock up on essentials without leaving the park. In addition to self-guided adventures through Big Sur, campers can find nature walks and other activities available for a day-use fee.
