Karen is wonderful and her vintage trailer and property are so lovingly cared for. Perfect place to tuck away with gorgeous surroundings. It’s a relatively quick jaunt into town to visit Santa Barbara and not far from some fantastic wine country, too.

An Amazing Stay!
Wow! I had an incredible stay at Under the Stars! It was so peaceful and cozy! I would recommend this Hipcamp to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. It feels like you are away from it all, but you are so close to all that Santa Barbara has to offer! 10/10

Under the Stars is Over the Top!
Under the Stars was truly Over the Top!
We were delighted with the awesome peaceful, nature-laden space, enjoyed the epic swing, walks, cooking in the well equipped camper, and moving around to various sitting areas, fire pits, tables/chairs, and to warm ourselves in the sun or sit by the campfire. Karen is extremely thoughtful providing every minute detail to please campers.
We highly recommend this unique property!👍🏼

This was such a lovely camper under shaded oak trees and equipped with AC that really helped through the heat wave. Karen was an amazing and kind, accommodating host, who had great recommendations and stayed up-to-date with communication.

This was my first hipcamp experience and it dis not disappoint. Karen is so sweet and attentive and even had a surprise stuffy waiting for my little girl when we arrived. The place so cute. Amazing trees! Very clean and convenient. There is also a TON of things to do nearby (secret swimming hole, boat rentals at a nearby lake, hiking etc etc). Could not say enough positive things. Thank you Karen :)

Great experience!
We had such an amazing time at under the stars! Karen was an amazing host and made our stay spectacular. It was my son’s first glamping/camping experience and he really really enjoyed it. The secret water hole Karen suggested for us was such a treat to go to and we had a blast swimming there. Lots and lots of fun things to explore. We would definitely come back!

Paradise.
We loved our camping getaway in this convenient yet secluded private campground oasis. We had the vintage trailer and a tent. Our host Karen provides more than essential amenities, clean bathroom, cookin' area, fire pit and detailed instructions to explore the nearby parks. Super communicative and tremendous value. We'll be back!

The perfect get-away.
Glamping at Under the Stars was everything we hoped it would be! Karen has the trailer and property set up to provide an authentic experience camping in a retro trailer and garden under the oaks. She is a wonderful hostess, giving you just the right balance of local insight and private time that you are looking for. Our dog was welcome and treated like one of her own.
The location is ideal! You can enjoy what nature has to offer, or spend time at the huge variety of wineries, eateries and breweries. We went the third weekend of May, and the weather was ideal.

Great Place To Spend a BIrthday!
Karen is a FANTASTIC host and thinks of every detail, including hanging Happy Birthday bunting by the trailer, which was a lovely surprise upon our arrival. Beautiful, quiet, lush green space to decompress. Her succulent gardens are just gorgeous. A short drive into downtown Santa Barbara if you want to do restaurants/shopping and then head back up the mountain for peace and quiet. Trailer is adorable and outfitted with everything you need. Loved hearing the owls in the middle of the night. Would highly recommend!

Karen’s property is so calm and peaceful. It feels like you’re in another world completely secluded away from all things stressful but the town is only 25 minutes away! She’s also an amazing hostess who cares for her guests. We had an amazing time!

Little Slice of Paradise
My girlfriend, pup, and I were very fortunate to have been able to book a stay at Karen's camper on short notice. Karen has really made this camper into a little slice of paradise for the weary traveller. Karen's hospitality and attention to detail made our experience delightful. We can't wait to go back!

Remote wilderness fun glamping
It was a wonderful little old-school trailer tucked into the woods of Los Padres National Forest. Super cozy spot for a couple. Lovely to explore the woods and reach hot springs in the area. Some lovely woodland hikes right around the campsite. Highly recommend staying here! Especially if you like lovely gardens ;).

New Years under the stars ✨
What a magical getaway. Karen has so thoughtfully created this space and experience for her guests. We rang in the New Years under the stars by the fire pit. The camper is small and cozy but comfortable for two. The location is wonderful. She super friendly and offered wonderful suggestions for hikes and dining options. Hope to return for another visit soon.

The perfect spot
Ahhhh!!! This was such a wonderful spot to stay in. Booked it as a surprise for my partners bday and we couldn’t be happier. Karen was so sweet and accommodating... my daughter loved feeding the birds with the birdseed she left and endless time on the swing surrounded by trees and birds. We had a great hike up Snyder trail and got some beautiful views. The gas fire pit was really great to have at night since there’s fire bans at most other spots. So it made the experience complete.

Super cute abode amongst the trees. A good location for getting out into the forest while staying close to civilization. Everything you need is in Karen’s camper…from lovely fresh flowers and cold water, to a nearby hot shower and bathroom, lovely forest safe outdoor fire, and plenty of blankets and cooking supplies. Lots of seating and relaxing spaces. The cabin is cozy but sufficient for two. With her house just a shout away, there’s plenty to explore on Karen’s property for a lIe surely day in. Or if you’re ready to explore the forest and SB, both are walking and a brief drive away. Karen was delightful to meet and offered up anything that was needed.

Charming place, spectacular host
This place was a TREAT to say the least. If you want a quiet little mountain oasis with the feel of remote camping, then this is your spot. Karen was by far the nicest host we have ever come across on HipCamp. Her attention to detail and thoughtful touches to ensure you have what you need doesn’t go unnoticed. Not to mention, being surrounded by oak trees and seeing the stars so vividly at night doesn’t get much better. We will most definitely be staying her again. Thanks, Karen!

Charming vintage trailer
Charming vintage trailer with everything you need to have a perfect stay. The host, Karen, was very kind and her little attentions much appreciated (e.g. Happy birthday sign, fresh orange juice). Communication was very easy, getting there as well. Big plus is the proximity to SB. Def recommended!

Just book it, it's a joy
If you want a experience about the ambiance and feeling of wonder then you got it here. I've done a few hipcamp trips before but this one felt special. Acids from how beautiful the location is, when you enter the cabin the literature made by the host makes you feel like someone set this up for you. Less like a hotel room but more like a quest. Someone has this planned for you even if you didn't plan it and it's amazing. Handwritten instructions leading you to a watering whole, lists of hiking trails and just tons of little books giving you an offline experience like no other. Absolutely loved it, and plan on going back next year
