Originally part of the Austin ranch, this property's roots go back to some of the first settlers to arrive in the area. More recently, it was the site of several illegal marijuana grows before the current owners acquired it. With the views, deep familial history in the area, and wild-west exploitation it epitomizes West County.

If you enjoy off the beaten path…
Loved the seclusion of this place. Gorgeous scenery for miles. The stars were amazing as well. If you are a small rig or van this is perfect. So quiet and my dog could run around freely. The drive getting there from Healdsburg was filled with wineries and winding roads.

First off, Justin is a master communicator. Super prompt and clear with everything. Directions are excellent and they need to be because you are way out in the country. Getting to the spot is part of the adventure as it is a tiny country road that winds through the mountains. Secluded for sure. As others have said, it is a dirt pad so not much more than a place to park for the night but as you will find, very little available in this area for options. Place was quiet for sure but a bit sun blasters in the summer so prepare for that.

Great Journey and Destination
Amazing location! The drive to the site itself is magical. I will note that there are a ton of sticky grass pods and burrs that may get stuck if you have a pet who wanders, but otherwise a perfect little spot!

Remote, but convenient
Really feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by beautiful oak trees. Not as hard to reach as the reviews made it seem. Just a steep grade and a sharpish turn.

Remote camping in wine country
This secluded camping spot was fantastic. The area was perfectly flat for our roof top tent and there was space for multiple vehicles or tents if needed. The drive there was remote and beautiful. Note that you won't necessarily have cell service for the entire drive. Google Maps got us there perfectly and the gate code directions were clear. There were a lot of great wineries on the way up.
