Eureka Casita
Beautiful property, with lots of space to roam around with the dogs. Still one of my favorite places to stay!

Jacob’s Little Cabin was the perfect first glamping experience. The cabin is just big enough for the fully made comfortable bed, and the wall that opens up like a garage door gives you a stunning view. It truly feels like camping, but with zero stress.
Jacob was very kind and helpful without being intrusive, and we loved his dog Gertie — she was playful and even got along great with our dog, who usually doesn’t like other dogs.
The kitchen was the highlight, especially the pizza oven. Making our own pizza was such a fun experience. The bathroom was spotless, and he even has an outdoor hot shower. Everything you need is provided — pots, pans, dishes, silverware, drinking water, and seasonings.
An easy five-star stay. We’d absolutely come back.

We absolutely loved staying at Campo Napolito. We stayed in the Eureka Casita which is very nice, spacious, and has a lovely minimal interior. The front porch and fire pit out front are amazing. We could have sat out there with our dogs for days. A big star of this property is the kitchen. It is very well equipped with just about anything you could ask for. When we were there, it really felt like a community with everyone gathering in the kitchen and easily sharing the space to cook at the same time. The communal seating areas are also very well done.
Jacob was an incredible host and we had a great time talking with him about his property and would love to visit again.

Beautiful spot, well maintained, and great amenities. Kitchen was practically professional grade and really did have everything you could want/need. Lots of hot water in bathrooms (which was great in December). Hilltop yurt was spacious and clean and the tempurpedic mattresses and down comforter were perfect on those cold rainy days. And the fact it was set on a covered platform really protected us from the worst of the wind and rain.

Hilltop Tent
My partner, Pyro (dog), and myself had a great stay at Jacob's property. We arrived a bit later in the evening due to heavy traffic and it was so nice to get out of the city and just relax. The kitchen area was a great spot to socialize with Jacob and his partner and a couple other guests. The setup is pretty neat and offers privacy from other hip camping guests and has some great views. We stayed in the tent and the beds and bedding were both very comfortable. The nice hot outdoor shower was a bonus to have and Gurtie (farm dog) was also a sweety.

The place was awesome and cozy. The sky was so clear for stargazing and the area was so peaceful. Jacob was so awesome and helpful. He made sure we weee very well take care of, brought us lights and an extra blanket so that we could be warm through the night. Will definitely be coming back here!

Absolutely wonderful. Comfortable cabin with plenty of warm blankets, nice and clean bathrooms/shower, fully stocked and highly functional kitchen, all on a stunning plot of the desert. My only regret is not getting to stay longer.
If you are considering this, book now...you won't regret it :)

Staying at coyote cabana on nopalito farm was such a great experience. Jacob was very friendly and keeps the land well maintained. The comfort of sleeping on mattresses with warm blankets made our get away so much more comfortable. If you are looking for a casual get away from home and want to enjoy nature, this is the place to stay. The host’s dog Gertie is very friendly and played all day with our dog Loba. Off leash friendly was what stood out to us when booking this location.

Stayed one night in Roadrunner with my dog Poppy. The farm is really beautiful and well-kept. We had a cozy night of sleep and we loved hanging out with Gertie the farm dog. I live 40 mins away but this was the perfect getaway from the city. Lots of bird spotting and a beautiful sunset. The kitchen has everything you need. Will definitely return!

Had a great time. Tent was clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we would have ever needed. We made pizza, tea, and breakfast. The bathrooms were clean. My only complaint would be that the showers were cold. We tried morning and night and there was no hot water. Would come back again. My daughter loved pointing out all of the avocados on the property.

My wife and I along with our two dogs had a wonderful time at the Nopalito farm. The entire setting from the communal outdoor kitchen to the shower and outdoor seating areas were great.
Jacob and his parents worked diligently to make all guests stay most comfortable.
We definitely plan to come back.

The Eureka Casita was the perfect quick getaway for my boyfriend and I. Jacob was super responsive and we had a great time walking around the farm and spending time in the communal areas as well! Everything was super clean and comfortable. Our company was kept by their dog, Girdie, who was super sweet and made the experience even better. Would definitely recommend!

Our stay in the Eureka cabin was phenomenal. Jacob was an amazing host, the shower/bathroom area is so nice and well kept, the kitchen is stocked, the communal spaces are all comfortable, and it was overall just a wonderful experience. Will definitely book again, if you’re looking for some quiet not too far out of the city, stay here!

Doggos had so much fun with their bff, Gertie! They played zoomies during evening and morning walks. Gertie also showed us her secret trails in orchard fields. She’s so sweet! In the morning, she politely waited at front door like she’s waiting for her friends to come out to play! Thank you again for having us!

Our stay at Campo Nopalito was exceptional! We loved staying in the Roadrunner Cabana with our two pups, and had the best weekend enjoying nearby hikes. Jacob was an amazing host, super welcoming and helpful, and we loved getting to meet his sweet pup Gertie. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying the outdoor shower were definitely highlights, as was our evening making our own pizza in the woodfire oven! Highly recommend staying here and can't wait to come back again soon!

Jacob was an absolute delight! Charming man whose genuine demeanor highlighted the stay. Offered hospitality without overstepping. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and the dog on site is a sweetheart. Quiet, relaxing, and private. Highly recommend.

I loved my stay in the Roadrunner Cabana! It was magical and everything I needed when it comes to glamping. It was the right amount of private, cozy, and relaxing. The kitchen was fully stocked with equipment (great for my partner who loves to cook). We now have a pizza oven on our bucket list because we loved Jacob’s so much!
It was an amazing time! I’ll be back!

Our stay at the Roadrunner Cabana was perfect in every way. Jacob has done a great job of providing a top-tier experience. The lodging was very comfortable, with a soft bed and cozy sheets. The A-frame provides a great view with the door lifted open, especially at night when you can see the stars. The communal spaces are fantastic as well. As others have mentioned, the outdoor shower is amazing, providing water as hot as anyone could want and at a strong pressure to boot. The kitchen was my favorite part about this stay. The stove and oven are commercial grade and a joy to use, there is a massive Santa Maria-style grill, but the star of the show is definitely the wood-fired brick pizza oven. Jacob provides a chance to play around with equipment that would be impractical for many homes. He's also a great host who is always available to assist campers and provide a friendly, easy-to-talk-to presence. The site itself is easily accessible, no AWD or 4WD required. I definitely plan on booking again in the future!

It’s the second time my husband and I stay at Nopalito farm - and we were not disappointed ! I arrived tired and sick of the city, and left after a couple days rested and happy. Jacob is great host, super nice and welcoming. We had the chance to try some passionfruits from the farm - they were delicious. The beds are so cozy, and the outdoor shower so so nice ! Highly recommend !!
