A great camping spot to enjoy the desert sunset and embark on short hike around the property. It was very conveniently located close to Jacumba Hot Springs. The miniature horses and sage farm on the property were a bonus as well! Ellen was very friendly and helpful upon arrival and everything was as described. Renting the propane fire ring was great on a cold night. Will stay again!

Perfect getaway!
We arrived and were greeted by 3 very friendly dogs. knocked on Ellens house, she came out promptly and gave us a tour and some history about the farm. We stayed in the open area by the sage farm and the miniature horses corral. We got to pet the horses and the dogs kept coming by to say hi. The night sky was like a dream! The stars were very bright! We felt like we were in the planetarium. The nights were pretty cold. It's currently the beginning of January. The views were very nice. We were surrounded by mountains topped with boulders. There's plenty to explore. We will definitely be coming back!

The camping experience I had at Ellen’s ranch was phenomenal. Our initial nerves were put at ease because Ellen was a very welcoming, friendly and humorous host. I would recommend camping here and packing very warm!

The property is beautiful, accommodations great, but most importantly Ellen was an absolute joy. She made sure that I had everything that I needed, knew my way around the property, and had great recommendations for Jacumba nearby. Can't recommend enough!
