Run by three generations, our ranch has been in our family for more than 70 years. We opened our doors to the public in 2014 to help support feeding our animals, bred and rescued, after the Powerhouse Fire almost burned us out. We’ve survived a county quarantine(2018-2019), the COVID Lockdowns (2021-2022), the Lake Fire (2020), and the Hurricane Kay burn scar debris flow and flood (9/11/22), depending on hard work and strong family and community bonds. In addition to camping and educational tours, we host private and community events, grow & sell produce and eggs, hatch and sell chicks, rescue ratites, and support the local bee population (which gives us RAW honey to sell), and are working to open a private U-pick-by-appointment orchard. We are all animal lovers, and conservationists, and try to do our part to ensure our children inherit a healthy and viable world. This is our home where we live, work, love, and play. We enjoy sharing our space with visitors who we hope learn about ostrich and make some great memories.

Tent Camp @ Working Ostrich Ranch
It is important to note that the site looks a little different from the pictures. The tent area is away from the main driveway, ostriches, and the little town setup, which is nice as they offer tours and you’re not bothered by them. Due to the heavy rains there are a lot of cow tails in the camping and communal area, which can be annoying and bad for dogs. The hosts are nice, gave us our space. Bathroom clean. I would stay here again. Hikes, lakes and the Rock Inn.

Ostriches and camping!
Super close to Los Angeles for a quick getaway. Had the whole grounds to ourselves and would highly recommend learning about the ostriches via tour! Jessica was super responsive. Understandable that the land isn’t as in top shape due to the flooding and fires, but would love to see this place when it’s back to 100%!

Pleasant stay, had to whole area to myself as it was a weekday and not quite summer yet. Took the ostrich tour, while we only visited a few pens in the front, Lou had a wealth of information to share. Definitely worth taking the tour. Close to Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve and Elizabeth Lake. Would stay again if passing through the area.

The place is safe, quiet and private. We had a relaxing time. I'd recommend the ostrich tour, Josh is so knowledgeable about ostrich and farming.

Camping felt really safe. I loved getting the optional tour around the farm and learning about ostriches. Josh and Jessica are both really welcoming and great!
