Songdog Ranch

4 Reviews

Songdog Ranch is located in California, featuring open spaces and rolling hills. Temperatures can range from 30°F in winter to 90°F in summer. Nearby attractions include the Carrizo Plain National Monument, offering opportunities for hiking and wildlife viewing.

Description

Songdog Ranch is not a dude ranch, nor some ritzy retreat. It is a secluded rustic get away for the 'real' and adventurous. There are no cattle grazing in the pastures, nor fields of fruit along our fence line. The only things ever raised here are small herds of wine glasses in the light of campfires.

Politicized campground

Not a bad campground, but driving in, the owner has large political flags flying. In these highly divisive times, I don't want to stay at places that divide our country, I want to get away from that. Not recommended.

Hello again, Ian! We met over on your one star Google review. We really do appreciate you sharing your opinion on any sites you deem necessary. I helps others make informed decisions about whether we are a good enough fit for their time under the stars. I sure wish you had met Jim in person or addressed your concerns during your stay. He would have offered your friend a refund and recommended another local campground more to your liking. May all your endeavors be blessed. :). -Jen

Spacious and beautiful private property. Friendly, accommodating hosts!

I stayed for a quick stop overnight and found the site as described. Just a table, fire pit, and water spigot. The hosts are very accommodating and made sure I was able to find my site after dark and were very responsive to my texts! Cell service was fine and I felt perfectly safe as a solo female! I really enjoyed the ranch dogs coming to hang out with me! I'll be back to try one of the other sites with more amazing views!

Very nice campground

This is one of our favorite places to camp. The sites are spacious with potable water and the chemical toilets are actually clean. The host is friendly and sells wood, if you don’t bring enough.

Great Campsite near Carrizo

Lots of campsite choices along the ridge with beautiful expansive views of the plain. During springtime, the wildflowers are beautiful. Site also has unique glamping options. Booked on Hipcamp. Owner is accommodating and sells firewood. Would recommend visiting during the cooler months as it's an open plain, but there are nice hand built pergolas at the picnic benches for some shade.
