Scottie is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

Aimed at providing a comfortable, convenient and safe facility for tourists to spend the night and refresh, Scottie's Motofarm boasts multiple lush green lawns for tent camping, many shade trees, clean and civilized indoor toilet facilities with a locking door, free wifi, a private walk-in shower/changing room large enough for two people with a locking door, outlets for phone charging, laundry washing machine (no dryer) and kitchen food prep area with fridge. Propane and briquette BBQ, fire pit, city water safe for drinking, plenty of parking. We are conveniently located on Route 4 so campers should expect some noise, however the road quiets down around at night and -- except for the occasional loud vehicle -- it gets pretty serene here during the star gazing hours! The tent camping area is fenced and we have not had any bears on the property, but we do have a few shy farm cats and the occasional racoon. For this reason, we ask all campers to be mindful about storing food and disposing of trash in the provided bins. The ranch is comprised of the camping lawns, camping facilities, several homes on the property (two Air BnB and the owner's home) and the motorcycle workshop. Car and RV campers are welcomed and there is plenty of car/RV parking on the asphalt lot outside the fence at the East Side of the property near the mailboxes at the intersection of Rte 4 and Brice Station Road.Aimed at serving travelers, tourists and adventurers for overnight camping, the Grassy Lawn Camp features plush lawns for tent camping, shade trees, indoor clean and private modern toilet, private indoor shower/changing room, clothes washer (no dryer), camp kitchen with fridge/hot and cold running Calaveras county water (safe for drinking), propane and briquette cooktop burners/grill/BBQ/Smoker, firepit and plenty of parking. We can accommodate RV campers on our upper parking lot--no hookups. Our property is located on Rte 4 Ebetts Pass highway in the heart of wine country, minutes from Big Trees Park and skiing at Bear Valley. Due to the location, campers should expect road sounds. Free wifi. We are 3 miles from Murphys CA. To use the smoker or fire pit, campers to bring their own wood and/or briquettes; clothes washer is free (bring your own detergent).

Great location and host!

5 m campervan

Great location and easy to find. Scotty was very welcoming and accommodating. We have a cab over truck camper and he found the perfect spot for us to settle in and enjoy the serene foothills.

5 m travel trailer

Very friendly host. Site was tight for a 19 foot trailer but it worked for us. The Murphys area is great so it’s nice to have a place to stay.

Tent

I had a wonderful experience at this location, which is conveniently close to Murphys. The spacious lawns are perfect for pitching a tent, and the shaded, illuminated pergola with tables and chairs offers a lovely outdoor gathering spot. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need, including a fridge, making meal prep a breeze. The recently remodeled bathroom features a warm shower, which is just what you need after a long day of riding motorcycles. The pricing is very reasonable, and the owner is nice and responsive, answering messages quickly. Overall, I highly recommend this place for a relaxing getaway.

Tent

This is a great option if you’re arriving late and just need a place to pitch a tent/ leave early the next morning. Clean shower, bathroom and kitchen. Just know this is right off hwy 4 so there is traffic noise.

Nice quiet setting. Kitchen, shower and bathroom really appreciated after a hot ride up. Kittens are adorable.
