> I am sad to leave this negative review as this is a wonderful place to camp with amazing amenities and walking distance to bolinas. I booked all 4 meadow sites for a multifamily camping weekend; on Saturday Walter overbooked my site to another family without checking in with me first and, when I approached him to discuss, stated it was because our tents were only occupying 2 sites and refused to refund me the fee for that site.

> This place was perfect for my toddler. She loved sitting and watching the chickens. We enjoyed the quiet and exploring. The quails played in the field, and the farm cat made an appearance. Plenty of fuel for cooking and enjoying a fire. The hot tub was a nice touch. The hosts were very nice and quick with answers to questions. We are definitely adding this place to our must return list.
