Blackberry Farm sits on the western side of Mount Tamalpais, tucked in the Gospel Flat area of Bolinas. The family farm and residence were established during the late 1970s on the site of the historic Peter’s Dairy Ranch. The original farmhouse dates back to the late 19th century and survived the great 1906 earthquake. Today, the 7-acre farm is being restored to sustainably support fruit orchards, cottage flower and kitchen gardens, honey bees, a boisterous flock of chickens, and naughty shetland sheep. Our self-serve farmstand attached to our barn has seasonal flowers, organic eggs, heirloom fruit, and local goods from the farm. Our property is the perfect rustic getaway for backpackers and outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll be surrounded by farm/ranch life: chickens clucking, roosters crowing, bees buzzing, and sheep bleating. We also have active nighttime wildlife: coyotes howling, raccoons foraging, owls hooting, etc. Bring earplugs if nature sounds are too much for you. We offer 4 walk-in tent sites that allow you to immerse yourself in nature. We welcome well-behaved pets ON LEASH that won’t harass the chickens, cats, sheep, other campers, or residents. Unruly pets and their campers will be asked to leave. No refund. Limit: 1 dog per site. Pitch your tent in a meadow shared by: Campsite 1 - left side of the meadow, closest to the common area and hot tub. Campsite 2 - middle of the meadow, closest to our fenced apiary and bee garden. Campsite 3 - right side of the meadow, near the orchard. (sites 1 and 3 are next to each other) Campsite 4 - front of the pasture, closest to the parking area (best for car/van campers wanting space to lounge near their parked vehicle.) Multiple sites may be booked for group camping. Sites 1 and 3 are next to each other under the Cypress Trees. Add site 2 if you would like the entire back half of the campground. Add site 4 if you'd like to have a maximum number of 16 total campers and 2 tents/per site. The common area has an outdoor shower, hot tub, covered bbq/cook area, tented (weather-protected) hangout space, and a place to stash your surfboard. The pizza oven is not available for campground use. Redwood Grove hangout areas have seating and tree swings. Please pack out your trash. We offer a recycling bin for glass bottles, cans, and clean paper. Parking is 100 yds or less from the campsites. We have a large wheelbarrow to help you cart your camping gear across the pasture to your campsite. No driving onto or parking in the meadow. Due to the narrow driveway and parking area (lack of turnaround), the site cannot accommodate RVs, trailers, or oversize vehicles beyond 16ft in length, 7ft in width, or 10 ft in height. 1 car per campsite, please. 15-minute walk to the beach and downtown.

Cute farm stay!

This is a really nice farm, with 4 different spots for camping. They have a lovely kitchen area/firepit area and are equipped with a basic toilet, bath and a hot tub. It was great to be with some cute farm animals - sheep, llamas, roosters etc. We rented a tent from the hosts and set up camp for a night. Very close to Bolinas downtown, the beach and some trailheads. Even if you don't plan on exploring around, you can just spend some time here gazing at the stars and enjoying the nature, make sure to pack appropriately as it gets real cold in the night. The hosts were very welcoming and we had the good luck of bonding with other people who were at the other campsites. I would definitely recommend this place an go again myself!

The best of Hipcamp

Blackberry Farm is the best of Hipcamp—a beautiful property, with top-notch amenities, and incredible hosts—all in a very magical place. Enjoy the flush toilets, showers, potable water, hot tub, firepit, pizza oven, animals and more! I camped in my truck's rooftop tent in the guest parking area and had a great experience. Walking distance to the pub and restaurants in town. I'd highly recommend Hipcamping here—I can't wait to return! Huge thanks again to Sirima and Walter for hosting me :)

Charming escape

We absolutely loved our stay at Blackberry Farm — great campsites, cute sheep, a fun hot tub and just a short stroll away from the cafes and restaurants in Bolinas. Excited to come back!

Great Hosts, Beautiful Spot

We were only there for one night but the site was such a beautiful spot! Walter came and greeted us as we arrived. When we realized we had forgot a few key items, we found the site equipped with anything we needed. We are hoping to bring some friends back for a weekend here in the future. Our pup loved seeing the chickens and goats on top of everything else. It’s so close to Bolinas Beach which is amazing too! 10/10!
