What a great experience at Sirimas property in Bolinas. We arrived after dark and Walter’s directions were perfect. He met us at arrival and showed us the grounds. The communal kitchen & separate bathroom, hot tub, pizza oven/dining area, fairy swing, cabins and primitive camp spots were amazing. We are looking forward to our next trip!!!

This place is even better in person. Hosts are incredible people and have made this place exactly what we wanted. It was peaceful and not a ton of other folks. The amenities were awesome- from hot tub, to a shower, toilets to the animals in the background… all in their great little farm. Had a little shop to offer little things just in case you forgot something. This place is well kept, clearly cared for and a bit of magic.
We will definitely be back! Grateful to have been hosted here!

I enjoyed my weekend at Sirima & Walter’s farm camp so much! The peaceful setting here is just an hour’s drive along the windy rural roads from SF but feels like another world. It’s quiet in the meadow where we pitch our tents among the trees next to the chickens, bees, and other farm animals. And the small outdoor kitchen, gas, grill, covered picnic table, shower, and HOT TUB! What more could I ask for?
Host Walter was very accommodating to my trip changes, and his suggestion to upgrade to one of the two rustic (but weatherproof and powered) cabins was a good one when I arrived after dark on a weekend with rain forecasted.
I look forward to my next opportunity to visit again to this perfect retreat from the City!

Great spot and within walking distance to town and the ocean. Farm animals were entertaining and the host was very kind. Bathhouse was clean and the hot tub was an added bonus. Great that a grill, gas stove, cooking supplies, and propane fire pit were provided! You will be in the company of a few other campers, but we didn’t mind and enjoyed some conversations with others. We’d love to come back!

The host met us as we pulled up and gave us a quick tour of the area and amenities which was fantastic. It’s always a little weird thinking you are staying in someone’s yard but they had a great set up. The campsites were level and large enough for our three tents. We brought our own kitchenware but they had sinks, soap and anything we may have forgotten. Yes the rooster can be loud but I pretty much slept through it. Great spot!

Ruth and Marshall were both great hosts! They were responsive to messages prior to arrival and were friendly and accommodating during our visit. When booking, I wondered if the pool would be visible from our campsite, but I was glad to find that it was very nice and private (a bit removed from the common areas and surrounded by trees). We loved the zipline and hammocks.

Tent camped for a couple nights here with the kids. Really easy spot - fire pit and hot tub and showers were wonderful, and Bolinas great as usual. Hosts were super kind and helpful. The space was filled with families with kids - which was great for us but it's definitely close quarters if you're not into getting to know your neighbors or hoping for silent mornings. Great spot, definitely recommend.

We were incredibly lucky to have found Sirima & Walter's farm. It was a last minute decision so we were fortunate they weren't completely booked.
The property is beautiful and well maintained - the hosts responsive to our questions before booking - directions were very clear - and we enjoyed getting to know a bit more about them. Our camp 'mates' on the property were considerate and pleasant.
Its a real gem of a place and we look forward to returning in the Spring!
