13 sites · Tents20 acres · CALOCATION INFORMATION
Our farm experience offers a no-fuss, rustic stay on a real working 20 acre farm approximately 15 miles south Bakersfield with easy freeway access. Sites are perched on the edge of the pond – enjoy catch and release fishing or spend some time on the provided paddle boards or kayaks. Most of our campers are road tripping, getting away from LA, or are looking for a stopover on their way to/from Yosemite, Sequoia, Joshua Tree, etc. We are in a desert climate – cold in the winter and hot in the summer.
Each site has a small table, water spigot with potable (aka drinkable) water, picnic table and fire pit ring (you provide your own wood). All sites are BYO (bring your own) tent or you can sleep in your car. Certain sites have height limitations and cannot accommodate pop up tents or trucks with campers – you’ll see these limitations in the campsite names.
There is one shared indoor toilet and one outdoor shower that has hot and cold water. You may be greeted by our 3 working dogs - they're big, but friendly and love visitors.
We offer a self check-in. Guests can begin checking in anytime after 1pm and checkout is at 11am. If you are going to arrive after quiet hours (10pm), we request that you respect the other guests who may be sleeping and do not disturb them.
RULES
1. Pets are not permitted. You will be asked to leave (with no refund) if you bring a pet. We have working dogs who protect the farm from predators. They will view your pet as a predator making it is an unsafe environment for your pet.
2. Quiet hours are 10pm-7am. We have ZERO TOLERANCE for noise after hours. If you are playing music, singing, being generally obnoxious or annoying to other campers and we receive complaints, you will be asked to pack up and leave. Please be respectful.
3. 1 Tent and 1 Car are permitted per site (with the exception of site 4, which fits 2 tents and 2 cars)
4. No tents, tarps, or canopies may be set up on our grass/lawn area.
5. No fireworks or anything else that involves fire outside of the firepit
6. Absolutely no feeding the farm dogs any food or treats.
7. At checkout, we ask guests to dispose of all trash in the dumpster located near campsite 5, wet down any hot coals, wipe down your tables and if you’ve moved any tables/chairs or used the paddle boards/kayaks to put them back.
8. We provide shampoo/body soap for the shower and do not allow outside bath products in the shower.
9. No moving or relocating the firepit
SPECIAL HELPFUL NOTES
1. You may wander the property, but campers are not allowed in the pasture, barn, or on farm equipment and vehicles. We do not offer farm tours at this time.
2. There is no electricity or wifi at the campsites. Cell phone service for all providers is great.
3. You're welcome to hang your hammock if you have tree straps - no nailing or screwing anything to the trees.
4. Paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing (catch and release) are permitted however campers do so at their own risk.
5. We have working dogs who bark if predators are near, bullfrogs who croak at night and roosters that crow in the morning. Earplugs are recommended if you're a light sleeper.
6. There is a Walmart, Lowes, Albertsons and Vallarta market all located within 20 minutes of the farm for any firewood, ice or other items you need.
7. Do not leave your shoes or trash on the ground and accessible to animals. Between the dogs, wild cats, coyotes, foxes, skunks, racoons, squirrels, etc. they will go missing or you'll find a big mess in the morning.
8. We are a true working farm and we operate 7 days a week. This means any day of the week, we may be doing tractor work, fixing irrigation, mowing the lawn, weed eating, chain sawing, or any number of other activities that it takes to keep a farm operating and the camping area looking clean and nice. We also have staff coming and going in the early hours for farmers markets.
9. The campsites are cleaned every Monday and Thursday. We love our trees for the shade they provide and so do the birds – which means there’s bird poop (part of nature). If this is going to bother you, bring a tablecloth or towel.
10. We are on well water, during the summer months, let the water in the faucets run for a couple seconds to release the sulfur smell.
11. We do not provide electricity to charge electric vehicles.
12. We have security cameras throughout the property and placement is in accordance with California laws.
