Camp SourBerry (near Yosemite)
1 site · RV40 acres · Oakhurst, CA
Welcome to Camp SourBerry! Here, you can park your home-on-wheels in a private space with a view. You can enjoy the feeling of rural seclusion while within walking distance (~1 mile) from shops and restaurants in Oakhurst. The South Gate to Yosemite National Park is less than a 30-minute drive (~75 minutes drive-time to the Valley floor), and Bass Lake's shores are only 15 minutes away.
Local wildlife is abundant. Wild turkeys are a common sighting, especially in the spring and fall, as are squirrels, bears, deer, coyotes, and bobcats, plus all kinds of native birds (hawks, quail, jays, woodpeckers, ravens, vultures, and eagles). We have a small homestead-style farm and so do the neighbors, so you can hear the distant sounds of chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, and cows. Because the safety of our animals (and yours) is paramount, we do not allow other pets to visit.
The parking location is an ease pull-through for passenger vehicles and shorter trailers. People with longer, taller trailers find it easier to pull-in and back out. The best view is on the passenger side of the drive!
Whether you want to stay put and enjoy the natural setting or have a base from which to explore world-class attractions, we would love to host your next vacation.

https://youtu.be/HAZiHdQVjcI?si=f41sKOIxBn0knodX
Our families heritage in the San Joaquin Valley is over 100 years, we are California grown! The land was purchased from the railroad in 1919 by Grandpa Coen when he immigrated to the USA after his service to the British Empire during WW1.
Grandpa established and maintained the vineyards during his life in California's Central Valley which he left to his daughter, Irene. She kept the farming tradition going with her husband, Al, and they expanded by purchasing surrounding land and planting more vines.
Today their daughter, Cheryl, and son-in-law Randy, continues the family farming tradition for the next century.

This is a piece of land that belongs solely to itself, and the beauty of the surrounding region. A history too rich and long, to wholly know.The honor of its stewardship has fallen to my family these last couple decades. A family of several generations in California. Most recently home to Coyotes, Pigs, Snakes and Birds, as well as a wild grey-bearded elder named "Uncle Robbert". Presently, home to myself, and in passing to those who seek moments of refuge and leisure in the beauty of rugged foothills. Learn more about this land:Yosemite foothills. Pines. Oaks. Granite Slabs. Seasonal Creeks. Long Vistas. Grinding Rocks harken to peoples well before our time.
The beautiful rolling foothills will provide a scenic and secluded camping retreat, nestled in the depths of country quaint, down at the very end of the dirt road.
Here, you can wander the dells, soaking in the verdant lush of winter and spring, or scrambling rocks while gazing into long sun kissed horizons of summer and fall.
this is DIY country living. Fit for self sufficient, hardy adventurers seeking a more unique, personal, dusty old country getaway.
Pack it in, pack it out.
you're 15 minutes from wading in the Fresno river, east on Rd 600 or an hour and a half from the South Gate of Yosemite in Mariposa.
