Your Own Private Campsite!
Lovely site. Beautiful landscape and a comfortable trailer. 🦉 owls hooting at night were magical. I'd love to come back.

Lovely dog -friendly, clean, comfy well equipped trailer with running water and electricity sitting in the old Orchard. (Yummy apples!) Even has satellite TV. Farm is great, seems worlds away from everything but actually is very close to town of Aptos and Santa Cruz County beaches. Owner Derek most helpful!

My first experience in a trailer was a very positive one, so I will return to Derek's site again, for sure. The trailer has all the elements of home - a stove, fridge, microwave, sink and hot/cold water!!, and a toilet/shower combo. I didn't use most of the amenities or the TV, but it's nice to know they're (including the outside shower facility) available. The bed was firm, much to my relief. The deck area is spacious, and two deck chairs would enable visitors to just really relax/hang out in ideal weather. Lots of land to roam with a pet, too. Derek dropped by, so his hospitality speaks for itself. Easy access to Hwy. 1 is a plus. The entrance sign is just under 1.0 mile from Hwy. 1, so do slow down or you'll miss it the first time driving by.

Glamping in Aptos!
We have only ever tent camped so this was a new experience for us and I think it definitely spoiled us to how convenient camping can be. Derek was super helpful, friendly, and responsive. The campsite was beautiful and peaceful and in a wonderful location for hiking, shopping, dining or just relaxing at the beach. The amenities available at the campsite blew us away and it helped having a private shower and bathroom.

It was such a Grand Time at Derek's land. It was Totally Peaceful and Private. All the appliances work and It had Beautiful Klandestine Views. The perfect way to Rest and Relax. Thank You so much for the TLC put into really making this a memorable place to be

Highly recommend
I stayed two nights in this cute well equipped camper. It was in a lovely quiet spot on private property. Highly recommend, close to sights, restaurants and fantastic sausage markets. The property has a trail for walking and no other camping, just a large house to rent.
