We are located about 1 hour east of Paso Robles California a short drive off highway 58 and about 1.5 hours west of Bakersfield. Carrisa Plains is known for its beautiful display of wild flowers in the spring time, incredible sunny days, and spectacular wildlife viewing.

What an amazing place! My wife and I had a great time, the place is truly a paradise! Their island is so much fun, and they have 24*7 pedal boating and kayaking available! We enjoyed boating during sunset and sunrise time with musical bird chirping and colorful sky, love it! Stargazing was surreal from this place!! Cleanliness: 5/5 Direction is very well provided and host is very responsive. I would surely recommend this place!
