I had a great time at Garden Pond. It was perfect for that I needed. I wanted to sleep outside, I didn't have time to really pack a ton of camping gear, and I was looking simply to sleep there and go on day trips. So the gurgling pond and sunny space among bees and hummingbirds to do morning yoga was aok by me!
I would recommend for the kind of stay I was looking for. It is a great place to rest at night and take days trips

If you love being surrounded by peace, beautiful flowers, gentle people, and fresh air this is the spot! Bring your own bedding (nights are cold and crisp)

Lovely location, peaceful and calm. The tent, bathroom, and the beds were very well cared for and comfortable. It was close to town, but still in the countryside. When we checked in the owner came out and greeted us and showed us around the property which is beautiful. We would defiantly go back again.

The space is truly beautiful and such a wonderful getaway! My partner and I went there to see a meteor shower though unfortunately is was very unexpectedly overcast 🙃. All that said the stay at the garden was so very restful and beautiful that we still had a beautiful time regardless. Great area for antiquing. We will definitely be back!

Very happy with our stay at Kamala’s Garden Pond site. It’s a fantastic option for visiting the Sonoma Coast. We loved the location - 20 minutes from Bodega Bay, 15 minutes from Occidental, and 10 minutes from Sebastopol. We came for Bodega Bay and the coast, but were surprised by how much we loved Occidental and Sebastopol as well and appreciated having those two places near by. Kamala’s property is beautiful and located beside an organic fruit tree farm. The site was great with a nice canvas tent with two single beds, a pond with koi fish, an outdoor shower, plus an indoor bathroom and shower. Would love to go back!

Wonderful!! Kamala and Pat were very welcoming hosts and very responsive. Pat even brought an icepack when I burned my thumb on our camping stove!
The place was very private, the tent and the beds are comfortable and we even had a small fridge. We highly recommend it!

This beautiful campsite is an oasis with a lovely pond, garden, and numerous fruit trees around. The beds were comfortable and there’s a shower and flushing toilet nearby.

I would recommend this place but with a couple of caveats.
Pros: The tent was nice and the cots were more comfortable than expected. The location was amazing, just 10 mins outside of Sebastopol and 20 minutes or less from the Russian River, Occidental, Santa Rosa, wineries, etc. The gurgling pond was great to fall asleep to at night, and the garden was full of flowers.
Cons: The whole area is in a bit of disrepair and needs some TLC. There are low branches making you duck every time you walk back to where the tent is. There are blackberry brambles invading the outdoor shower (my towel kept getting caught on thorns). The shade awning from the photos no longer has a top. The bathroom door is hanging off it's hinges. Communication was slow and not enough guidance was provided about drinking water, trash disposal, etc.
Overall, if you're looking for an inexpensive place to stay in that area, it's a recommend, just know that it's a bit worn down and "rustic".

Lovely site! The beds were comfortable, space was quiet and full of lovely nature sounds. Some signage was a little hard to read/find, but overall it was an excellent get away.
Loved the little redwood grove, and everything felt so peaceful.

We loved our stay at the Garden Pond Site! Close to town, but still secluded, it is the perfect location to recharge, unwind and go to sleep to the sound of the pond. The tent is clean with electricity, very spacious for 2 (very good Wifi and comfortable beds), surrounded by flowers and trees for shade. We met Kamala and Pat who were super helpful, kind and accommodating. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

The tent and beds were comfortable and the sound of the fountain was very soothing. It is in a very convenient location. It is close to downtown Sebastopol, and not far from Bodega Bay, Petaluma and lots of Wineries and Antique shops.

The cots were super comfortable and the property is surrounded in serenity with flowers, shrubs and an amazing rose and flower garden. The pond and flow of water is very soothing. The path to the site is a little uneven but in a natural state.

It was a really great spot. The pond was sweet. The land is beautiful and it allowed me to explore all over the national sea shore as a last minute adventure. The host was super nice and accommodating, very communicative. Would definitely recommend

The host just refused to check us in because 11 p.m. is too late. She did not bother to give a heads-up that late check-in wouldn’t work.

We enjoyed tent camping on the property. It worked well both in the rain and then was quite comfortable once the sun came out.

The garden is the perfect place to view the stars, moon, and especially Jupiter. We love a well placed water feature, and nothing encourages peaceful sleep quite like the soft babble of a fountain. The tent is plenty spacious for two and the beds can be pushed close together if you're feeling sweet. I'd come back, especially for the rustic bench swing.

Beautiful spot, a nice respite from the rain and the garden smells were intoxicatingly relaxing. Recommend bringing zip ties to tie beds together if you’re hoping to share :) Would definitely stay here again!

It was a beautiful property. Sleeping to the sound of the small waterfall in the pond was very relaxing. The environment was quiet and serene.
The Kodiak tent was cute, and functional. There was electricity inside, including a heater which was very thoughtful and useful.
I enjoyed my stay, and would happily go back there again.

The area I stayed in was peaceful, filled with all sorts of plants and flowers and adjacent to a beautiful vegetable garden. I loved watching the koi and listening to the water sounds. The tent was very comfortable and had electricity. Close by is a nice bathroom. Highly recommend for a relaxing get away!

The site was even better than expected! It was peaceful sleeping with the water sounds of the pond and waking up in beautiful gardens. The tent is large and the canvas keeps it pretty insulated from the cooler coastal air.

My first hip camp, so I didn't know what to expect but we loved this one. Everything worked and looked as advertised and we had no issues with directions or the use of facilities. There was an outdoor shower that was amazing, with views over fields and hills.
