MOMMAPEGGS SEIRRA/YOSEMITE GETAWAY
For Little and Big Adventurers
The hubs and I wanted to get our LO's into camping, but in a way that wasn't too "roughing it" especially in the middle of November. The kids are 3 & 6 and love the animals and the outdoors. Finding a place that was safe, with a "real" toilet, lots of space to roam and plenty to look at/hold their interest was a big search. Momma Pegg's 100% checked the boxes. Pegg herself is THE best host, she was very thorough explaining the site, baked THE best breakfast goods for us, and was always available when we had a question. She was very knowledgeable on places to go with our small Adventurers, and Momma Pegg Pantry is right on site serving the most deliciously large sandwiches. Definitely add that on to your stay.
The animals include mini ponies, peacocks, chickens, and the very best, fluffy guard dog. Because of the animals, you do hear the roosters cockadoodledooing in the early morning, but we wanted to get up and start our day anyways. The prettiest guard dog does bark to keep the coyotes away, but it sounds like an owl hooting so it was easy to sleep through. The fire pit is a nice propane one with the rocks in the middle, and table top ledge surrounding it. There are several great sites to choose from, with some solar twinkle lights for flair. The bathroom is a Porta Potty but it's very well kept with seat covers and a nice bright solar powered light inside. There is an actual sink with cold and hot, as well as an outdoor shower with wonderful hot and cold. This really is a gem of a place, and we are already planning a spring visit again ❤️

Stop by Yosemite on the way here
This place has two mules/donkeys/ponies! After many google searches, we were not able to determine what they actually were, but they sure were adorable. What a beautiful place, me and my girlfriend loved it. We woke up to muffins that Momma Peggy made us for the morning! Highly recommend.

We had an incredible stay at MOMMAPEGGS. Peggy was the most gracious of hosts. Grounds were clean and safe. We loved visiting the animals (my 8 year old was in heaven). Short and easy drive to Pinecrest and Columbia. We will definitely be back in the spring.

The most picturesque stay :)
This is one of the most gorgeous places that I’ve ever experienced. Every moment here was picture perfect. Between the gorgeous sunsets and the beautiful outdoor shower, you feel like you’re in a dream. I can’t recommend this place enough!!!

EXCEPTIONAL near YOSEMITE
I have stayed at several HIPCAMP locations but this one is hands down the best. The location is fantastic, close to YOSEMITE and Peggy provides shower, toilet, gas grill etc. She even offered me to use her tent iso setting up my own. She also has a little Cafe with fantastic sandwiches, coffee, tea etc. HIGHLY recommended campground with an extraordinary host. I will be back.

Wonderful stay!
We had a great time at Momma Pegg's! She welcomed us with baked goods to win us over, the outdoor shower was perfect after hiking Yosemite, WiFi was speedy, bathroom was clean - couldn't have asked for more! Would definitely recommend.

Mini mule!?!! Yes please
It was perfect, and was secluded from the usual amount of people at campgrounds. I’m an animal lover, so getting to play fetch with her dogs and pet the mule and horse was the icing on the cake. The flexibility on spots to put our tent down was great too. I’d absolutely recommend.

It felt like a nice chance to camp well and also briefly experience the best parts of rural life...a peaceful quiet night unlike with some public campgrounds, greeted by a playful dog, woke up to a rooster. Also Peggy was very helpful to let us borrow some things for cooking and answered all our questions quickly.

We came in late and left early and never met Peggy but she messaged us and told us the perfect spot to park. The place was very cute and very well kept. Will stop there again when in the area.

Great Little Spot for your travel…
What we loved: Warm friendly host, nice outdoor shower, great stop in between destinations, was private and not busy like you may encounter at state/national parks, provided gas stove and outdoor sink, porta-potty was clean-had solar light in it at night. Great scenery/view-stars clear at night, closed entry gates at night made us feel safe.
Things to be aware of: Not the most even ground for tent camping-be aware if you’re not sleeping on air mattress. Close to the road, could hear light noise at night when vehicles passing by at 55mph. We encountered a lot of bees when we had our food out. Not sure if bees are present all the time, but if you’re allergic…be aware. And the rooster. This is a wonderful farm, but the rooster crows…like roosters do…all the time.

Wouldn't suggest for tent camping.
I would not suggest this site for tent camping. The area had quite a few red ant hills and the sink area for washing didn't have running water and had a few black widows hanging under the sink. The tent site was also very close to the road and the cars driving by were noisy.

A really sweet place to stay
We were delighted to stay at Mommapegs!!! It's a short drive to Rainbow Pools and Natural Bridges trailhead, with which we bookended our stay. We loved seeing all the sweet and gentle farm animals and were impressed to learn how they are all rescues. Mommapegs has possibly the best shower I have ever taken: a bit like showering in an airy greenhouse, only better. The apple pie filled muffins the next morning were so delicious that I might have to return just for those muffins! We had a nice flat space to camp and a clean picnic table upon which to cook our camp food. I will add that, while the bathroom is a portable, it was definitely the cleanest one I've ever used. Can't wait to stop over again at Mommapegs.

The hostess with the mostest
Momma Peggy is a very gracious hostess (and I’m from the south!). It was like staying at a B&B, not camping. She gave us a great swimming recommendation. She brought out piping hot muffins in the morning (and a coffee for my addicted husband!). And she made us all box lunches for our trip to Yosemite. She made fresh chocolate chip cookies for us that were the best we’d ever had. The campsite was well appointed. Much more than we would’ve expected for camping. There was only one other guest there so it was like we had our own place. Apparently there’s the option to use her RV or one of her tents (rent ahead I think) which I would’ve loved to do if I’d know. We came in a heat wave so loved the idea of hot having to set up or take down a tent. The shower was super cute!
Thanks Momma Peggy!

Fantastic experience.
Our Momma Peggs experience was fantastic from start to finish. Pegg reached out the day we were arriving to let us know she was expecting us and to see if we needed anything. When we arrived the place was in pristine condition, had all of the amenities as described. We received a wonderfully enthusiastic welcomed from the dogs, the pigs and the donkeys. We setup our tent and settled in immediately. Pegg checked in with us and ensured we had what we needed and knew how to contact her. She also greeted us with the most amazing freshly baked muffins in the morning.
The location is beautiful and even though it’s near the road, it’s extremely peaceful. The gas fire pit, bbq and sink with running water right by our site made everything so comfortable. The sun was high in the sky but there were plenty of shady spots under the trees.
The stars were amazing at night. And the birds in the morning created an amazing orchestra of sounds to gently wake us up. That and the donkeys nibbling at the grass right by the tent.
The toilet was very clean and the shower was an amazing experience after a long day exploring. Pegg was super welcoming and helped us plan our few days.
I would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking for an out of the way, friendly and peaceful experience.

delightful
After another HipCamp last-minute cancelled our reservation, we found MommaPegg's. So glad we did! It turned out to be much better than what we had. We have 2 girls (7 and 9) and they loved the animals, the room to run around, and "helping" Peggy with the Pantry in the morning. Peggy (and her son, visiting his mom) were so warm, welcoming. Everything was clean and prepared. The pastries and coffee were delightful. Yosemite was only 45 min to the gate, plus, she recommend other great local things, so it was a great base-camp for other things to do. We loved MommaPegg's!

Fabulous getaway and fun Hipcamp
Awesome place! I was easily able to find MommaPeggs hipcamp and was easily able to maneuver my travel trailer RV around there. I also felt safe leaving my RV there for a couple of days while I backpacked Yosemite which isn’t too far away. Peggy was nice and respectful and accommodated all of our needs. Great place for family and friends. Also near all the fun in Sonora.

You’ll beg to stay with Momma Pegg!
Momma Peggs was an absolutely awesome host! We loved hanging out with the mini mule, Barley, and her two piggies Bourbon and Dilbert as well as her dogs :) She has set up an awesome spot with total care and is honestly just a great human being and so much fun to talk to. Perfect balance of checking in on you and letting you have your peace. Highly recommend! It’s right off the road but don’t worry about the noise- peaceful at night- oh and she makes the best freaking danishes and sandwiches!

Our stay was good and liked the fresh baked muffins in the morning. The campsite was well equipt, but would recommend bringing a camp stove with. Animals were very nice and friendly. Hot showers were a plus and the gas fire pit at sunset was wonderful. Thank you momma pegs !

Great spot
We had a wonderful stay over the Memorial Day weekend. The tent sites are dispersed, so there’s plenty of space, despite the busy weekend. We loved spending time with the farm animals :)The outdoor shower was so refreshing after a day of hiking and swimming. Thank you, Peggy!

A little piece of paradise
Peggy was very welcoming and accommodating. Great campground with all the amenities you need, kitchen you can use, great shower, dry restroom, even tents if you don’t have one. Love the farm animals as well. I will definitely recommend this place and we will certainly go back
