T2 - Tent site 2

We love Banner

We love camping at Banner ranch. The sites are very nice with good amenities and they have great showers. We had plenty of space, they are very accommodating and pet friendly. We have camped there before and we will again.

T7 - Tent site 7

SIte T7

Actually, it was first camping from Hipcamp and it was just AWESOME! The site was spacious and private. Check in and out is super easy and no rushing. And we enjoyed encountering animals like turkey and friendly donkeys. It would be greater if the restroom maintenance is better. And we were heard NO FIRE at all but the other campers made the fire every night. Policy is confusing. But still I definitely recommend this place to my friends!

T4 - Tent site 4

Hot shower and restroom were great. It was good we were able to move from T4 to T5 and the management allowed it because we had really noisy neighbors left and right. We had bad luck with the people around us because everyone else except for them were quiet and kept to themselves! We had no cell reception (T-mobile) which made it hard for us to communicate with management but good thing another camper offered for us to use his phone. His provider was at&t and had full bars. Some places have more shade and privacy than the rest. Choose T4 is you want a communal space and/or want to socialize. If not, choose a different space. Camp spaces that are more private is better than the rest. We had trouble finding T4 because it wasn’t on the map.

Site T7

We loved our stay at Banner Ranch! Site T7 is beautiful, spacious, and shady. Only downsides were close to road noise and quite a hike to the restroom in the middle of the night, but we loved the wildlife and little creek running through the property. The spigot at our site wasn’t working, but we just used one at a different site for dishes.

Banner Ranch Julian

Overall we enjoyed our stay, a few things I wish I had known prior to staying would be that the sites aren’t very clearly labeled and that each site doesn’t have its own water spigot or trash can. We stayed in T2 which was spacious and had lots of shade. Relatively clean bathrooms and showers (with hot water!) but I wish there were a few more lights leading up the pathway to get there (midnight bathroom trips were pretty spooky, even with a flashlight) Overall I think we will stay there again, just plan a bit differently

It was relaxing we were able to see the wild turkeys roaming around and it was just so relaxing camping here.
