Red Dot Ranch offers a scenic, regenerative farm camping experience overlooking Pescadero and the Pacific Ocean. About the Land • The Vibe: The hillside has a gentle spirit with a glorious sunset golden hour over the Pacific, and sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and watershed. Beyond the scenery, this is a space for curiosity and ecological innovation to remember that we don't just visit nature—we are part of it. • Our Mission: Red Dot Ranch is a working farm and foundation operating as a regenerative field station for food and shelter, moving good ideas from the lab to the land with a strategic focus on water. • Indigenous Land Acknowledgement: Red Dot Ranch is located on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone. We understand the inherent inconsistency in celebrating and learning our place in nature while pretending to own land which can never truly be owned and is part of us. We wish to recognize indigenous knowledge and pay our respects to the Ancestors, Elders, and Community of the Ramaytush and to affirm their sovereign rights as First Peoples. The Campsites and Amenities • The Sites: Open field campsites with sweeping mountain and valley views. • Parking &Access: Accessed via a steep, newly surfaced driveway with ample parking available. • Restrooms: One ADA-accessible porta-potty on site. • Showers: No showers available. On-Site Experiences and Features • Market Garden: Stroll the garden and book an add-on experience to harvest, cook, and eat with Co-Founder Mark Curtiss. • Farm Animals: Free range chickens and add-on experience to collect fresh eggs for your breakfast. • Farm Meal: Book a private lunch or dinner prepared by Mark Curtiss. See ww.reddotranch.org for more event photos. • Wooded Trails: Meander along art-lined paths cut through the woods. • Picnic Area: Relax at picnic tables and seating with an ocean view, equipped with solar lights, grill facilities. Essential Camper Rules (Pack In, Pack Out) • Bring Water: No potable water is available on site. Please bring your own. • Leave No Trace: Pack out all trash. Pescadero has no municipal trash collection, so please do not leave your refuse in town. • Parking: Use designated areas so the soil does not get compacted. • Fire: No use of the fire pit.

Enjoy a peaceful camping experience in a private tent site overlooking our market garden, with sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and valley. Wake up to spectacular sunrises over the mountains and end the day with beautiful sunsets across the valley. From the property, you'll also enjoy views of the Pacific Ocean, all within the serene Pescadero-Butano Creek watershed. The campsite is perfect for a quiet getaway with a single tent or for groups of up to 12 guests. The site can accommodate up to three vehicles. Because access is via a shared one-way driveway, we ask that groups arrive together and coordinate their arrival and departure times.
