Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Cross Bull Ranch/CBR

I didn’t need to bring a canopy as there is plenty of shade or chairs which were already provided was nice. This was a nice not far from home getaway. You’re not far off the main highway but it still feels secluded. You can sleep in a tent but also jump in your car and go to a cafe, bistro, or market 5-10 minutes away if you wanted to. I think my spot at the moon lodge was the best as you’re tucked in a nice corner by the stream and the mountain. Lisa was very sweet and accommodating, we were the only ones there when we went to it was nice to have the place to ourselves. She has dogs but they were so well trained they didn’t make a peep the whole time we were there. She even has a rooster that Lisa let us feed which i loved ! Bathrooms were clean but you have to walk outside of the property to get there. The equalivent of maybe 1 street block give or take depending on where you are. Which is not uncommon for camping. I 100% recommend this spot of your looking for something local. :)

2 nights at New Yurt City

Kyle’s land was unique, to us it was a special gem! Absolutely beautiful sites with lots of furry friends 🥰 we could have campfires which was a huge perk for us so we didn’t have to go out all the time! If you love to stargaze or even love AtVs rides this is the perfect spot . They have a really good deal for renting/tours! They even have outside bathrooms (outhouse style), and showers! Thank you for everything! We can’t wait to come back😊

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

I had such a lovely time here! As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe and comfortable. The pool was lovely and everything was kept very clean. They have everything that you need and more! The drive up to the property is lovely as well with lots of farm animals to see along the way. Thank you so much! I’ll definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to The Lodge at Deer Creek

What a beautiful site! Truly a magical drive up the hill and such a peaceful, undisturbed piece of land. From our site, you could see the ocean on one side and mountains on the other. Camp was quiet and great for hosting a small birthday party for me! So close to the beach. Chris is wonderful and accommodating! Only note, road to get to the campsite was a little rocky so I didn’t feel comfortable doing it in the Prius but any car with more clearance did great.

Weekend Trip to Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch

We booked two sites. Came with my daughter, son-in-law and 2 of my granddaughters. We had fun. Caught frogs. Did archery and axe throwing. Jessica and Lou were both friendly and responsive. We got honey and some ostrich oil. The stars are amazing at night.

Weekend Trip to Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch

Fun, close and short get away. Jessica and Lou were great!

Beautiful camp site! The host is very friendly and kind.

1 night at Malibu RV Park

I loved that the facility’s were clean and workers were kind. Facility has water hose access and electrical plugs available for extension cords at each camp ground. Great views of the water.

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

Love this place, people always make you feel like you home. This is my 2 year coming to this camp 😊

Weekend Trip to ArtFarm Movie Ranch & Nomad NeXuS

What an incredible place! We felt like we were welcomed like family. The access to a full kitchen and compost bathroom and amazing hot showers was so nice. Even though it was super full over the holiday weekend, it all felt so relaxing and everyone there was so kind. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to The Lodge at Deer Creek

Chris and his family are amazing hosts. We had a wonderful time at the Lodge, watching sunset, feeling the bliss. Just peaceful. Good for a small group (<8) or solo camping. Chris is building the restrooms. Will be more than happy to come back!

Weekend Trip to Cross Bull Ranch/CBR

Lisa our host was truly nice and made our camping trip memorable. The location and camp site was beautiful with the trees and landscape and it was a great experience for us. We appreciate the warm welcome and hospitality from Lisa!

4 nights at AntFarm LA

My boyfriend and I stayed at the sunset terrace campsite for 4 nights and it was absolutely amazing. Robin was a great host, the views were incredible, there was a hot shower and refrigerator to use, and the location next to the 210 fwy made it so convenient to visit my family during our stay. It was a memorable stay and I really appreciate the whole set up.

6 nights at Malibu RV Park

I loved my spot - privately tucked into lush flowering plants with gorgeous ocean views where I watched dolphins from the picnic table. Steps from a pathway to trails, seafood restaurant and the beach. I was working from my van for the week. Wifi was strong first few days but then got spotty when more people came but the public library down the road had good wifi from the parking lot. Would definitely stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch

So much fun! Jessica showed us everything we needed to know about ax throwing and archery. As well as the history of Quail Run. We took a Tour of the ostrich farm with Lou. He was so informative and VERY patient with all of our questions. Everyone was very welcoming even the ostrich that shared their kantling with us. Don’t know what that is?? Guess you’ll have to go find out 😝

Weekend Trip to The Hangar At M&Ms

Such an awesome spot! Tucked away in a safe and quiet neighborhood, yet within 30 minutes to everywhere we wanted to go. Cozy outdoor space and super fun inside layout/decor. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Cross Bull Ranch/CBR

Lisa was a really good host. She was super friendly and welcoming and made it easy to arrive unassisted. I brought my two young daughters and they loved swinging on the rope swing and exploring the dry creek bed. We had a nice propane fire pit. (No real fires allowed). And when we needed bug spray I drove 5 minutes to pick it up and come back. feels removed from LAand yet not at all removed from civilization.

3 nights at AntFarm LA

A beautiful way to spend a few nights down in here. The host is friendly and gives a great run down of everything I needed. If you’re looking a nice camping with a beautiful view this is the spot.

1 night at Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch

So lovely!! Arrived late at night and what a pleasant surprise the ostriches were in the morning! Very quiet, seems like there’s lots to do on the property, peaceful and cute. Most definitely booking again when I drive down to LA again this summer!

Terra Vivus

3 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Lake Hughes, CA

Terra Vivus is Latin for "The Earth is alive." Welcome to a great balance of being away from civilization, engulfed in nature with peace and quiet yet also being 10 minutes away from the nearest market and 30 minutes away from the nearest city. Chipmunks, crows, doves, crickets, coyotes, sparrows and many other creatures call this land home. This is protected land called a Significant Ecological Area mostly because of the thousands of Joshua Trees. Send a photo/video of you sharing your water with the plants at terra.vivus.inquiries@gmail.com and receive $3 off your stay. 25% of all revenue goes to restoring, preserving and enhancing the existing ecosystem. Come experience and contribute to the preservation of this beautiful landscape. It can be windy at times, in order to mitigate this I recommend using your car(s) to block the wind. Local markets also sell neck gaiters for face protection. I also have pieces of plywood with bricks that you're welcome to move and shift to fit your needs. I am in the process of building a tree/shrub wind block. There's about .4 miles of dirt road to get to the property, there are some dips to watch out for but I come out here in a little Prius so it's manageable. Overall, there is an element of seclusion but occasionally people do drive by on the dirt road. I would rate the cell phone service a 7/10, it's pretty solid but can go out at times.

Wild Horizon Farm

2 sites · RVs, Tents20 acres · Lake Hughes, CA

The property is about as remote as you can imagine. It is bordered on all sides by empty land lots. The nearest house is over 1/2 a mile. The property is at the top of the mountain. 360 views!! Down to desert, across to Tehachapi, and over the community of Lake Hughes. It’s spectacular, the space and peace is breathtaking. Many local people have said it’s the best views in the whole area. At certain times of year the mountains are snow capped. We are at 3800 feet, so there is snow at times in winter. The property is a working horse ranch, and small holding. We share the space with pigs, goats, Abigail the donkey, chickens, and horses. You are welcome to visit with them. There is lots of meadow area to camp!!! Please do not plan to arrive after dark. The maps usually will send people, on incorrect routes, and you will need additional directions from me.

Camping @ Quail Run Ostrich Ranch

7 sites · RVs, Tents62 acres · Lake Hughes, CA

Run by three generations, our ranch has been in our family for more than 70 years. We opened our doors to the public in 2014 to help support feeding our animals, bred and rescued, after the Powerhouse Fire almost burned us out. We’ve survived a county quarantine(2018-2019), the COVID Lockdowns (2021-2022), the Lake Fire (2020), and the Hurricane Kay burn scar debris flow and flood (9/11/22), depending on hard work and strong family and community bonds. In addition to camping and educational tours, we host private and community events, grow and sell produce and eggs, hatch and sell chicks, rescue ratites, and support the local bee population (which gives us RAW honey to sell), and are working to open a private U-pick-by-appointment orchard. We are all animal lovers, and conservationists, and try to do our part to ensure our children inherit a healthy and viable world. This is our home where we live, work, love, and play. We enjoy sharing our space with visitors who we hope learn about ostrich and make some great memories.

We Removed (8) 5 TON DUMPSTERS/40 TONS OF GARBAGE INCLUDING: Cars, Car Parts/Tires, Toilets, Jacuzzi Tubs, Dishware, Newspapers, Utensils++. We Picked Up EVERY Chard of Glass from Broken Beer Bottles, EVERY Bottle Cap, EVERY Cigarette Butt. Which ARE NOT BIODEGRADABLE. It was A "Travesty." And... "A Labor Of Love." We IMMEDIATELY "Invested" $25,000.00 Clearing & Cleaning, "Healing" The Oaks. With Ropes NOT Spikes. We Bought A Brush Cutter & Cut Down Weeds TALLER THAN ME. At 1st you Couldn't EVEN See The Topography Of The Land. We Renovated an Existing Trailer Adjacent to The Farm House. The "Treehouse Trailer" as We Affectionately Call It Was Out Home for 7 Years While I Resolved A 1' High File Of Building Violations, Woke at 5:30AM EVERY MORNING To Direct/General Contract A Crew Of Talented Artisans from San Miguel Allende, Mexico NONE Of Which Spoke English (Soy Boriqua) & Who'd NEVER Built or Renovated A House Before.

Again "I Prayed" HARD & Divine Inspiration Came To me Similar to "Food Being Medicine," that Pachamama, "Mother Earth" is The MOST Potent Healer. I Decided to "Open Up The Land" To Offer To "Others" to Leave Society & Devices Behind. Ground Themselves. FULLY IMMERSING Themselves, Family & Friends in Nature "Maskless." In Order To Breathe Fresh Air. Filling Their Lungs With Life Sustaining Oxygen & Bathe Themselves in Sunshine which Is A PowerFULL Disinfectant, Recharge "Their Souls" & Stimulating Their Third Eye/"Pineal Gland." Helping Others To Re-Boot & BOOST Their Immune Systems. Which is Of The UTMOST IMPORTANCE "Right Now." I Am Lisa Cianci and... I AM Looking Forward To Seeing YOU Here On The Ranch!" Until Then...

Terra Vivus

3 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Lake Hughes, CA

Terra Vivus is Latin for "The Earth is alive." Welcome to a great balance of being away from civilization, engulfed in nature with peace and quiet yet also being 10 minutes away from the nearest market and 30 minutes away from the nearest city. Chipmunks, crows, doves, crickets, coyotes, sparrows and many other creatures call this land home. This is protected land called a Significant Ecological Area mostly because of the thousands of Joshua Trees. Send a photo/video of you sharing your water with the plants at terra.vivus.inquiries@gmail.com and receive $3 off your stay. 25% of all revenue goes to restoring, preserving and enhancing the existing ecosystem. Come experience and contribute to the preservation of this beautiful landscape. It can be windy at times, in order to mitigate this I recommend using your car(s) to block the wind. Local markets also sell neck gaiters for face protection. I also have pieces of plywood with bricks that you're welcome to move and shift to fit your needs. I am in the process of building a tree/shrub wind block. There's about .4 miles of dirt road to get to the property, there are some dips to watch out for but I come out here in a little Prius so it's manageable. Overall, there is an element of seclusion but occasionally people do drive by on the dirt road. I would rate the cell phone service a 7/10, it's pretty solid but can go out at times.

Joshua Tree Ranch Los Angeles

5 sites · RVs, Tents3 acres · Lake Hughes, CA

This valley was inhabited by the Kitanemuk tribe for thousands of years. They would live here in the winter, and spend the summers hunting and gathering pine nuts and acorns up in the Tehachapi and San Gabriel mountains. This region is called the Antelope Valley because there used to be antelope-looking creatures called pronghorns.My first trip out here was to watch the Blood Wolf Moon lunar eclipse of 2019. It didn't disappoint! This is the spot to come look at the stars, howl at the moon, eat jerky, draw weird cactus trees in your sketch book, whatever!Learn more about this land:Joshua trees 50 miles closer to LA than the Joshua Tree National Park!This is 2.5 acres of protected Joshua Tree lands in the Antelope Valley north of LA, between the snowy Tehachapi Mountains and the San Gabriel Mountains. My first time out there I saw BOTH ENDS of a rainbow in front of the snowy Tehachapis!! Super dark skies, and a million stars at night. You'll probably see the Milky Way! It does get breezy at night, so dress appropriately.It feels like the wild west out here, and that's the main appeal--no rules, nobody watching. Think long dirt roads, tumbleweeds, bones, and maybe some old bullet shells (there's no shooting allowed on the property anymore). This is not a state-maintained, paved, manicured operation--it's the edge of the desert wilderness. Please respect the property and clean up after yourself!This is for people who are comfortable exploring beyond a concrete slab with electricity and janitor-cleaned restrooms. There are no designated sites, so pick whatever looks good to you. We often have multiple parties at once, so feel free to spread out.This land used to be the domain of the Ketanemuk tribe, which I think means People From The East. In the summer they would go up and hunt and get pine nuts in the Tehachapi Mountains, and acorns from the oak trees in the San Gabriels.The property itself is along a dirt road called Avenue C. It's about a 20 minute drive from the town of Neenach (pronounced Nee-nack), where there's a general store and a cafe. They make a great breakfast burrito. It's also a few minutes from the State Poppy Reserve, which blooms in the spring with miles of California poppies.If you have a larger group or event in mind, get in touch! We can figure out how to accommodate you.
