Our organic flower farm & homestead is nestled within the breathtaking beauty of Santa Cruz County. Staying here offers a glimpse into the ongoing operations of a modern, small footprint flower farm & homestead. Our close proximity to the iconic Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), Capitola Village and downtown Santa Cruz ensures you're moments away from the majestic views of the vast ocean, surfing, hiking, dining and entertainment. Regarding your camper -- please be sure your camper / RV / Campervan / motor home has a toilet. County regulations require an indoor toilet to stay here. Also, our property can only accommodate hardshell campers / RV's / Sprinter type vans. Sprinter's with a pop-up for sleeping are fine. If you have a trailer, please have the requisite skills to back your trailer into a space 10 feet wide. Whether you're a flower enthusiast, a lover of fresh produce, or someone seeking a peaceful and safe overnight space, our homestead offers a delightful experience. We invite you to come and stay with us and enjoy the simple pleasures that our small flower farm has to offer. PS -- when you message us, please tell us about your camper (type / length / year) and that it has an indoor toilet. This helps us confirm your booking straightaway.Welcome to Dynomite Farm!

Markus was an amazing host! He greeted us upon arrival and made sure we knew where everything was for the night. He gave us an information packet which we could reference for restaurant recommendations and many other things. In the morning he walked us around his garden and we were able to ask him lots of questions about his garden and the surrounding area. In addition he gave us the ability to purchase honey and other products which all are super delicious!

The gardens were beautiful and the tomatoes (thank you for sharing) were like candy! Markus was a great host, this was an easy stay. It was a great spot to visit our son at UCSC and explore all that Santa Cruz had to offer. Definitely recommend a glass of wine in the garden before you turn in for the night!

Small but mighty
Small but adore than adequate for our 25' class C. Flat, clean, easy to access. 15 minutes from the giant Redwoods. Even closer to the breach. Friendly host.

Very nicely maintained site and beautiful backyard. It had all the conviences and was very close to Santa Cruz, Soquel and Capitola. Also, very quiet and peaceful location. Marcus was an exceptional host-he was very friendly and helpful. Doreen Burks

Lovely stay in Santa Cruz
We enjoyed our stay at Markus’s lovely property. The property is beautiful and close to many great attractions. We were wanting to stay somewhere in Santa Cruz before leaving WiFi and restaurants for Big Sur. This was the perfect spot! Mark had great recommendations and was great to chat with. We bought some incredible honey as well. Thank you for hosting us, Markus!
