SLO Country Camp was once a part of the Serpa Ranch, one of the early ranches of the Central Coast. It’s remained a beautiful rural pocket in the Edna Valley area of San Luis Obispo. It’s quiet and peaceful, enjoy your morning coffee listening to all the birds waking up. There’s a private creek not far away that draws deer and wildlife. Just saw 3 deer run through out property 2 days ago. Owls, red tail hawks, eagles, squirrels and jack rabbits we see frequently. And you can listen to the coyotes howling at night. We’re surrounded by rolling coastal hills, vineyards, horses, cattle and also land apportioned to the Land Conservancy. Walk down our road and then left up to the top of the hill for a panoramic view of the entire area with the city San Luis Obispo at a distance. Our two sites are flat on decomposed granite pads. Both have excellent views and easy access to our common areas: wash/kitchen prep, and cold-water outdoor shower. Site 1 is best for trailers but Site 2 is adequate. Firewood is available for purchase at camp for those wanting to use the fire pit, or you can bring your own.  The San Luis Obispo, Central Coast has so much to see and do! Hiking trails abound, my favorites are Bob Jones trail to walk or bike to Avila Beach, Johnson Ranch and Irish Hills for hiking hills, the Ridge trail for a view over Shell and Avila beaches, and the Harmony Trail to walk grassy cliffs by the ocean. Montano de Oro is only 15 minutes away with rocky ocean cliff trails that lead down to the coastline. (Check out our copy of a local trail book when you are here for more extensive listings) We are 5 minutes from the beginning of the Edna Valley winery trail with 30 wineries or more I’ve lost count. Tasting and relaxing in great atmospheres. My favorites are Biddle Ranch, Talley, Mailene, Chamisal, Bailyanna... but there are so many more. We’re 10 minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo, 10–12 minutes to Avila or Pismo beaches. Morro Bay is 25 minutes. And we’re just 5 minutes off the 101 for easy access to traveling. The Central Coast has almost everything for fun, adventure and food. Surfing, biking, hiking, ocean kayaking, paddle boarding, golf, wine and beer culture, ranch lands, shopping and restaurants and we’re close to it all.

SLO weekend getaway
Ken and Judi were easy to communicate with and their place is so lovely! The location is close to town and the beach- so easy to get around. The site was so nice with a stone block fire ring and Adirondacks to get cozy and comfy around. The additional workspace and table and chairs was nice to set up camp “kitchen”. So many special touches around the property… aItogether it was a great getaway spot for our family! Thank you!

Beautiful views!
Beautiful spot to camp in the green rolling hills. Owners sent great directions, grounds were charming and lovely, with beautiful views of surrounding areas. I loved hearing and seeing the regional airport takeoffs and landings in the distance (exciting!). It was raining for the two days we were there, but easy access to Arroyo Grande, Pismo, and SLO. There are two campsites side by side, so would be a perfect place for family get togethers.

We had a lovely stay at Ken and Judi's camp. It was so quiet and views were awesome. Ken was super helpful and accommodating and even was OK with letting our dog roam around, which was so nice. We rode our bikes on the country roads and yet we weren't too far from town. Thank you!

The hosts were simply lovely! Wonderful communication and the campsite was magical with multiple seating areas, fire pit, outdoor shower and utility sink as well as subtle lighting along pathways and seating areas. Sunrise and sunset and amazing views. I highly recommend this slice of home!

Home under the stars
Só sweet and inviting! Quiet with spectacular views of hills, sunrise and sunset. Subtle fairy lighting around site give wonderful ambience without interfering with the natural sky. Several seating areas-around firebug, table and chairs under patio covering, chairs under shade tree, outdoor shower and utility sink. Oh, a hammock under shade! Very comfortable.

Ken and Judi were very communicative and welcoming when we booked our stay less than 24 hours ahead of time. We were greeted by them and they answered any outstanding questions we had. Quiet and cute farm with all of the amenities you could need!

Clean and Cozy Stay
Ken and Judi were wonderful hosts! We camped at site #2 and we were very comfortable. It was quiet and peaceful throughout our stay. We loved having a sink to help with cooking and dishes. All the amenities were clean and in good condition. The firepit was perfect for the chilly evenings. We brought our dog and she loved exploring the campsite. We highly recommend staying at SLO Country Camp!

Biking into SLO
We had a wonderful relaxing stay. Biked into SLO on low traffic paved roads. We enjoyed the lovely seating areas and greatly appreciated the cool shower! Also, had great Verizon and good AT&T. We’ll definitely return!

This SLO camp is spacious and well set up. It's a quick drive into town and close to the coast. We spent two nights and went to Morro Bay and San Simeon one morning. The sea otters and young elephant seals were a hit.

An Oasis in SLO
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Ken and Judi’s lovely slice of heaven! The accommodations are charming, quiet and private. They have thought of everything. A nice kitchen/cooking area, a great fire pit, even an outdoor shower! Plus a great space to exercise our dog. A very comfortable spot to relax for an evening, and the sunset was incredible!!

SLO camping <3
We got here late, stayed 1 night, and left pretty early. So we didn’t get to experience the campsite to the fullest. The location is awesome though, close to downtown SLO yet far enough that you don’t even realize you’re that close and the hosts are amazing! Ken met us right when we pulled up to give us a quick overview of the sites and the area. Even gave us tips for our route for the next day. We left a sweatshirt behind and they let us know and offered to ship it back to us! So sweet! Definitely want to come back!
