This campsite offers a serene and picturesque setting with remarkable views and a welcoming atmosphere. Guests often note the presence of horses and the convenience of amenities like outdoor showers and a winery, which enhance the overall experience. The host, Val, is frequently praised for her attentiveness and friendliness.

Camp Site (Tent) @ Dharma Bums

We loved camping out at Dharma Bums. The views were amazing, and there were a few cute furry friends running around. Grateful for the friendly, welcoming community onsite!

Tiny Tudor

Cute little spot, emphasis on the "tiny" Tudor! But just enough for what we were looking for. Would recommend adding on the wine tasting! Enjoyed the outdoor shower, even though it was a little chilly in November!

Camp Site (Tent) @ Dharma Bums

The land is beautiful! We arrived in dark and had a bit of difficulty discerning exactly where to set up our tents. She has lots of great options for lodging. I would be happy to stay again.

Camp Site (RV) @ Dharma Bums

The building and view are so beautiful! We only stayed one night but it was so relaxing and wonderful. The shower was hot and the toilet facility was a terrific reprieve from our portable toilet. We heard horses walk by in the evening and the morning was just fantastic. We stopped by their winery/cidery, where we received top notch hospitality. Thank you!
