2 nights at Stars + Mt. Diablo + Farm RV Pad

So peaceful! I'd love to see it in spring when the almonds are blooming. All I could hear was cows mooing in the distance and one coyote howl. It was a great stopover for a couple nights. To find it, you turn right onto a small gravel drive off of Crocker. If you get to W. Undine you've gone too far. The pad is covered in largish chunks of recycled concrete. My car and little camper handled it fine, though. There is water, 30A & 50A power and sewer. Bring drinking water, because even with an inline filter the water came out rusty. If you get a chance, stop by the office and pick up some raw walnuts and excellent biscotti.

Weekend Trip to Cole Ranch

We've camped at Cole Ranch twice now and had a great time both times. Barry is a great host. I love the amenities there.

29 nights at Stars + Mt. Diablo + Farm RV Pad

My wife and I stayed for about 4 months, we loved it. Jaqueline was very friendly and they have the best pecans and walnuts that you can purchase! The only problem was the rocks and our pets feet. But we worked around that and they eventually got use to it. Water and electric hookups came in handy. I hope to stay again!

We were only able to stay one night, and are definitely staying a full weekend next time! What a gift to find a riverside retreat and such a relaxing, simple layout just minutes from town. Thank you, Ed!

Weekend Trip to Cole Ranch

My partner and I loved staying at Cole’s Ranch! Barry is extremely hospitable and organized. All of the amenities he provides were also super clean; we really appreciated the clean bathroom and kitchen area. Highly recommend the tour he provides as well! We ended up booking the hay ride and cow/calf experience and all of their cows were friendly and loved being pet. We’re definitely going to come back again next time!

Weekend Trip to Hirst Horse Ranch

What an incredible camping experience for our Girl Scout troop! The hosts help create memories with our girls, feeding animals, getting to know the farm cats and dogs, "racing" horses, jumping on the trampoline and swinging on the swings, with on tents set up on soft grass and the hosts incredibly responsive to our communications via the app (quick to respond and act).

Weekend Trip to Cole Ranch

The RV sites are well laid out, spacious, and flat, next to a lovely pomegranate orchard and near a pleasant river. Barry was extremely friendly and helpful, greeting us when we got there and showing us around the amenities. The boats available for use were great, and the kitchen area provided a place with hot water on demand to do dishes so we didn’t have to heat it up on our stove. My only regret was not bringing fishing gear along; maybe next time, since we will definitely keep this on our list of places to come back to.

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Cattle Company

Easy to find and very accessible. The tranquility was a definite plus. Being a single campsite was very nice. Site electrical worked great. Thank you for allowing my wife and I to stay here one night after Boots & Brews instead of driving all the way home.

A very peaceful and quiet location just outside of Morgan Hill. Kind of the ideal place for a quick getaway. We stayed there in our fifth wheel RV and Brian was an excellent host, always very friendly and made sure that we felt welcome. And an absolute plus to being here was being able to hang out with the Highland cow Dually!

1 night at Hirst Horse Ranch

We had a wonderful time at Hirst Horse Ranch. The area is beautiful and the kids had so much fun tent camping, riding horses, jumping on the trampoline, running through the sprinklers and learning about the different plants and animals on the ranch. The hosts were amazingly friendly and the kids instantaneously felt so comfortable around them and asking them questions. We hope to come back again soon.

Weekend Trip to Flip Flop Flat

We loved Heather and Ed’s wonderful property! We did so many fun things: water gunfights, kayaking, swimming, cowboys training (ax throwing and roping cow), and stargazing. And that was only the first day! On the second day we went on a five-hour kayaking trip with Ed’s help. Truly amazing experiences. We fell in the river at least three times but it was great fun. Already recommended your place to one of our Boy Scout leaders. We will definitely come back again. :-)

Ed & Heather was just a delight and really goes out of their way to help you get the best experience camping at their very lovely property. At one point Ed was teaching the other campers how to lasso and he was giving me fishing pointers. Special mention to Blue and Axel (pups) that played with my kids by the waters. Definitely recommend!

Weekend Trip to Snug Harbor RV Park & Marina

We were backed right to the slough with our own boat dock if needed. Water front within 25'. Definitely a cool getaway, within 60 miles of Sacramento. This place is totally pet friendly with numerous poop stations and a fenced in dog park. During our stay, they had done tacos, breakfast burritos, and a movie night. During the day on Saturday they had a jet ski show as well! Campsite are side by side with full amenities water, sewer, and electric. Some spots have better shade, however we will know what we're looking for at the next opportunity to come out!
