Weekend Trip to Kingswood Ranch

This trip was about getting from point A to point B, not stargazing, so it was so nice to find a hipcamp right off the highway with potable water and a privy! Price is right! Everything was very clean. Thanks Sheree!

Weekend Trip to Kingswood Ranch

Easy access spot with all the necessities! The directions and instructions were spot-on but the host came out upon my arrival to make sure the site met expectations and to see if I needed anything or had any questions. Such a quant and ideal spot for a stop-over! I will be back 🌞 Only HipCamp host I have stayed with who flies our Nation’s colors!

Outstanding views in all directions, and a friendly, informative host in Meredith. If you’re dry/tent camping (we were in a rooftop tent on our truck), be advised there is no shade. Keep in mind that the site is a working ranch, so their work is ongoing throughout the day. We would stay again.

Great spot for simple camping. Hosts are great, friendly and helpful.

Two comfy twin beds with mattresses and linens along with access to electricity and WiFi make an evening in our Sweet Pepper Ranch Glamping Tent relaxing and convenient.

Loved my brief stay at the Sweet Pepper Ranch! It was a scorcher of a day but after a quick dip in the pool and shower, the tent was perfect and cozy. When I woke up in the morning, there was fresh coffee and all the fixings waiting for me on the porch - who could ask for more?! Thank you so much for the hospitality and kindness, Alayne!

Great service. Host is kind and went out of their way to help us get set up in the rain. They have 50amp service and Sewer which was really nice. Bring an extension for the sewer because it is about 12 feet away from the Rv. We road our dirty bikes up the dirt road to Jerusalem valley outlook. Beautiful! Site itself is not serene so much but the amenities and the access are why we will be there again.
