Beautiful natural campsites in the Valley of the Moon (Ojai Valley). Our sites are within an eighth of a mile of walking, running, biking, and riding trails from Ojai to the beaches of Ventura. On many days you can experience Ojai’s famous pink moments. You can hike the trails above Ojai, boat, eat, or picnic at Lake Casitas. Travel to nearby Ventura to shop, fish the pier, or take a deep sea fishing charter or Island charter to Whale watch or fish around the Channel Islands. Please note the aerial view of the camping area recently placed by Hipcamp is NOT AT ALL REPRESENTATIVE of the current camping sites and shows a photo that is many years old when the site was merely land. That photo is without any of the existing amenities or improvements. The actual sites are all Larger than Federal Park and Statepark guidelines, with averages of 20'x30' for campsites and 20'x40' for a long RVCampsite. We have planted many young trees and continue to plant trees and native shrubs around and near the sites. We have picnic tables, table coverings, fire pits, and camping rugs/footprints. There is also an outdoor shower, a shower tent with hot water, and an upgraded porta-potty with a sink. Note: During times when high heat is predicted, we strongly recommend that our Hipcampers bring pop-up shade tents or canopies for their sites. The Hipcamp is adjacent to our working ranch, and any photos of old sheds, trucks, a wood lot, or other equipment are NOT on the Hipcamp, but you will drive past that property to get to the separate Hipcamp area. Wineries, Farmer's Markets, Craft Breweries, dispensaries, and more are within 10 to 15 minutes of our site. Our location allows moments when you may see Hawks, Owls, Geese, Swallows, Robins, Bluebirds, and more. We offer both tent and RV camping. The Majority of our Guests love it here: "Vivian and Dave were exceptional hosts! Easy to contact and find our way to their property. Also gave us a plethora of places to go and things to do in the Ojai area. The area was open and spacious, and many trees and upgrades were in the works to make future stays more user-friendly. Big pluses were the shower and toilet facilities—much appreciated !!"

Site 2 Museum Palo Verde

Plenty of space and amenities

This was a cute campsite close to a lot of activities in Oak View and Oaji. We had plenty of space and the dark sky was nice to see. The host were very responsive even when we needed something at 10pm! The shower was so nice to have. Highly recommend to others! Your dogs would love the location.

Site 2 Riverside

We took our kids on their first camping trip to Vivian’s property. The property was surrounded by the beautiful Oak Valley and easy to get to from Ojai, which was only 15 minutes away. They had all the amenities you need for car camping, including firewood for sale.

Site 1 Jacaranda

Easy and pleasant ranch camping

Host provided clear communication about site ahead of time and then on site to welcome us as well. Site was clean and easy to figure out. Kids liked that there were ranch animals.

Site 3 Oak Grove Adjacent

It is a lovely place to camp in. We had a tent box and the site was perfect for this. It was spacious and had all the facilities needed. The hosts were lovely and so helpful with anything needed. The stars on an evening are amazing. Recommend! Would stay again if ever in the area, the host offered some good recommendations in the local area that we wish we had time to see.
