"I firmly believe that Nature brings solace in all troubles." -Anne Frank- Serene, quiet acreage on the Tuolumne River, with views of the snow capped Sierra Nevadas on a clear day. Scores of wildlife sightings, including river otters, eagles, wild turkeys, beavers, and many more. Perfect for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, or just relaxing. Like to fish? Fishing at Cole Ranch is a Love/Hate thing. If you Love to Fish, you will Hate to leave. Gateway to Yosemite National Park, the Mother Lode region, hiking trails, and spelunking opportunities. All sites have access to our community outdoor kitchen, which has a refrigerator, coffee bar, sink, BBQ's, and stoves. Also available is our bathrooms, quite possibly the cleanest campground bathrooms in the 13 western states, which include flushable toilets, two sinks, and warm showers. Book your visit now. (Cole Ranch is a working ranch. Occasional noise from common ranching activities may be heard.) Check back here periodically for advisories on river conditions. **ADVISORY** September and October is almond and walnut harvesting season in surrounding orchards, which can be noisy and dusty. Cole Ranch has no control over which days harvesting may occur.

We really enjoyed our stay here, whether it was staring out at the peaceful river or out on the canoe! Barry was also very helpful and accommodating.

Ready to come back!
We absolutely loved this campsite. It has all the amenities you could need to have a comfortable stay. The owners have put in a lot of effort to provide everything for the campers so you could honestly come with a tent and food and you would be all set. We are definitely planning a trip back!

Bennett’s Camping Trip!
Last minute camping trip on a Holiday weekend at Blackberry Briar Campground was great! Very clean and spacious place. The River access was perfect. Canoe avail for us to get out on the water was so fun. The camp host’s were very nice. We interacted with them 3 times during our stay. Fire pits and outdoor kitchen avail for everyone to use. Bathrooms well maintained and solar showers provided. My wife, son and his two friends all thought this campground was very nice. You will not be disappointed! When I saw this site had 80 reviews and all “5’s”, we had to check it out! So glad we did! Thanks Barry! 👏👏👏 😎

This was a beautiful location with an amazing host, Barry and family really thought of everything! It was spacious and the dog had the best time running around in the river and I was able to do a little fishing! Can't wait to come back and boat the river! Thank you 😊

EASY CAMPING
This place is great. Outstanding hosts: clean kitchen and baths, boats to use, fishing poles, chairs and tables as well. They have thought of everything and make camping easier! The property is beautiful and I really enjoyed my stay. I was at RV site 5 which I highly recommend. I will be going back in 2024.
