Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
The Bar 3J is located in the Cuyama Valley, it is an operating cattle ranch raising a small herd of Hereford cattle and oat hay. This 800+ acre property has paved access to the ranch while backing up to the National Forest. The ranch has an extensive road system suitable for hiking (easy grades and challenging grades). Homesteaded in the 1880s, the current owners are the second family to own the ranch. Much of the property is unchanged from the 19th century, come for a visit to to the past, walk through open range, rest in the shade of old growth oaks, see cattle grazing across the mesa, and watch wildlife in the wild. We have ok cell service but are remote enough that folks will believe you if you say you didn't have a signal.Cleared site for RV parking, to gather, and to pitch tents or canopies. Site is next to large stand of old oaks, cleared site with picnic table under the tree canopy. Sharp rise to the West of the site, shades the area in the later afternoon. Hard packed dirt road access to the site suitable for RV. Direct access to main roads on the ranch for hiking and biking.
