Weekend Trip to Beach RV Pleasure Point

the site was perfect, staff friendly, and great location.

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

Beautiful hip camp with amazing amenities. Loved the showers and scrubs and soaps! Plenty of firewood, fire pits, games, and serene space.

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

We had a fantastic stay at Whiskey Hill Barn! Our group of 30 (plus a few dogs and kids in the mix) felt completely at home here. Dawn and her husband were incredibly kind and responsive—every little detail felt thoughtful and intentional. The outdoor hot shower was an absolute dream after a day of exploring, and we were so touched by the s’mores supplies they left out for us. It made for such a cozy evening around the fire. The site struck the perfect balance between glamping and camping: all the charm of the outdoors with just the right amount of comfort and ease. Everything we needed was easy to find, clean, and ready to go. Couldn’t have asked for a better setup for our big crew. Truly chef’s kiss all around—we’re already talking about coming back!

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

Our experience was top notch. My 2 kids (8 and 10yo), pup, and I absolutely had a blast. We came during my kids spring break so the dates were pretty much set in stone... We don't control the weather and it rained a bit (early April). We tented and the weather hit only at night. We camped at the barn/oak grove site and it was amazing. There's a little overhang from the barn which gave us a little bit of reprieve during the minimal day time sprinkles. Dawn and Sven have it dialed in. There is a fire pit and a wood stove to keep everyone warm at night. We set up camp on the hill, toward the oak tree. Fun things about their spot... 30 minute drive to tons of activities, very clean and well kept, table tennis for a lot of fun, the cleanest portapot, a great hot shower, tons of space, and the best thing, Luna, the camp dog. She is the sweetest pup that absolutely loves a little love and also is not intrusive in any way. Luna and Randi (our canine companion in life) ripped around and had a blast together. We may come back just for that. We would live there if we could and highly recommend their little slice of pie that is a nice mix of camping/glamping/fun. We hope everyone that visits makes the most of it and finds the joy that we found. Much love to all...

We will definitely be back! Thank you Dawn for an amazing evening!

The entire set up was awesome! Dawn and her husband were very nice and really responsive. The landscaping is pretty and the barn is picturesque. Definitely a cool place to rent out if you are traveling in a big group. And of course you can't forget about sweet Luna, the family dog that cruises around vicinity. So cute!

1 night at Beach RV Pleasure Point

We loved the location! We took advantage of the location in the morning and walked to Verve coffee and then the amazing coastal neighborhoods! Hosts were attentive and gave great dinner and restaurant recommendations!. Super close to beach and the boardwalk!

1 night at Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

Whiskey Barn is a wonderful, thoughtfully appointed space. Dawn is a great host, and provided a very warm welcome. The fire pit was cozy with enough chairs for a large group, and the gardens are beautiful. All in all, a very nice place to land for our trip! The barn is close to the road, so you get some traffic noise, but the location is incredibly peaceful and very close to the beach.

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

It was a nice secluded property with a lovely shower. Next to the road so you’ll hear a tiny bit of traffic. Also may recommend requesting some more specific instructions to the site itself, as the gate is clearly visible, but hard to tell at first if it’s *the* gate.

1 night at Beach RV Pleasure Point

A welcoming little RV park, conveniently located close to Santa Cruz marina. The showers were hot, the bathrooms were clean and the sites were easy to park in. We enjoyed our stay!

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

The land was beautiful and private! The bathroom was super clean and the outdoor shower was a treat. We booked a tent spot but with the rain, Dawn offered the barn for us to use as a dry hang-out spot. Not only was this a super kind gesture, but also the barn was the PERFECT spot for us to spend time in. It was beautifully decorated with lots of kitchen amenities, and they even left gifts for us to use which was very much appreciated. I absolutely loved this space and would highly recommend it to anyone!

3 nights at Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

This was one of my favorite spots I have stayed at so far. Favorite part was getting daily visits from Dawn’s dog, Luna. Felt very protected by her. The location was perfect! Only 20 minutes away from the boardwalk and close to really nice spots to go hiking. Dawn was very responsive and so sweet. Felt very safe and we had everything we needed to feel comfortable. Thank you so much Dawn!

My friends and I absolutely loved Dawn's place! It was beautiful, clean, and just what we needed. Really loved the hot shower! Thanks Dawn!

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

Everything worked out great for our night in the Santa Cruz area. The spot was pretty easy to find even though the area is quite dark at night. Hookups worked with no issues, Wi-Fi was great, and the host was responsive.

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

We had a lovely weekend at Dawn’s - the perfect setup for camping! The space is isolated enough from the road and host’s home to feel private, while having easy access to town and amenities like water, an outdoor shower, toilet, and even games set up on site. The string lights were so helpful at night around camp, and they even left us extra tools to get our fire going. Such kind and welcoming hosts, we look forward to coming back!

1 night at Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

I had a fantastic experience at Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp! Dawn was an amazing host, going above and beyond to help me get my RV parked comfortably and even sharing some delicious local beer, which was a treat. The campsite was well-maintained, with a perfect blend of privacy and a welcoming atmosphere, even with two other families nearby. The area was peaceful, clean, and offered everything I needed for a relaxing stay. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a comfortable, friendly camping experience!

Weekend Trip to Whiskey Hill Barn and Camp

Our one night stay at Dawn’s place was a great start to long weekend getaway. We had the pleasure of meeting Dawn’s husband upon our arrival. He was very friendly and gave us a quick lay of the land. With it getting dark earlier, the outdoor lights were very helpful when setting up camp and making dinner. The kiddos were really excited about the s’more kit that was set-up on the welcome table. We also appreciated having a spot to use the bathroom across from our camp site. In the morning we were able to meet Luna, their dog, aka the Camp Host.
