Reservations are available at Loomerland, a privately operated farm campground in San Ysidro running $39 to $99 per night, with both tent and RV sites that include electric and water hookups. Getting there requires plugging in GPS coordinates rather than following standard road signs, so downloading directions before arrival saves trouble. The property sits in forested terrain near a lake, and campers consistently note that mornings bring views of the surrounding hills and early fog rolling through.
The working farm is the defining feature here. Chickens, peacocks, pigs, rabbits, ducks, cats, and dogs share the property, and the barn opens around 8 a.m. so campers can interact with the animals directly. The farm is kept clean, reviewers note, with no noticeable odor. Sites vary in privacy: those closer to the barn are convenient to the outhouse but more exposed, while sites farther out, like the Happy Hilltop spot, feel more secluded while still within easy walking distance of facilities. Each site has a campfire ring, picnic table, and Adirondack-style chairs.
Loomerland works well as a base for day trips. Julian, Ramona, and Anza-Borrego Desert State Park are all within reach, and nearby alternatives include Jasper Trail Spur -- Anza-Borrego Desert SP to the east or San Felipe Valley Road (S2) Dispersed -- Lake Henshaw Area to the northwest for dispersed options. Camp hosts are hands-on and communicative, and Terri R. notes they "got us set up with a firepit, wind break, and even gave us some farm fresh eggs." If a farm-based overnight with genuine host interaction sounds like your kind of trip, Loomerland delivers exactly that.
