Wow! What an incredible place, cared for by wonderful caretakers! I felt so welcome by Vicki and Sara (one of the volunteers) that it was effortless to enjoy the boundless natural beauty and positively glowing energy of the place! I highly recommend:)

First time at this camp and it was great! Sites were more than adequately spaced away from others for privacy. Very quiet and the views are the best. I look forward to returning soon.

Our stay at Harrison Serenity Ranch was absolutely wonderful! Vicki and Kari were so warm and welcoming, they made us feel right at home. And the land was absolutely beautiful, with stunning views, clear air, and spacious sites. This spot absolutely lives up to the serenity in its name!

A very good experience. Had I done more research I would've discovered this wasn't like other traditional campgrounds. We would've brought more provisions and comfort items. The tent was wonderful, and having the full service restroom nearby was very convenient.

We had a great time here for memorial weekend. We feared that there were too many mosquitos but it was cool and early in the season so there were some, but we were prepared with spray and long sleeves. It wasn’t a deal breaker. Aside from that, Vicki is awesome and her land is beautiful to explore. We bonded with her dog Solo and her pig Yolo. They’re so freakin cute! Will come back but prob not in the summer!

The property is breat takingly beautiful. Minimalistic but with amenities close by. We were treated to an open view of the valley below, completly above the clouds. Ladder back woopeckers, ravens, hawks, song birds and a pot bellied pig wander to greet you. One caution, the road up is winding and rough in a couple spots. If youve never driven a mountain road, bring someone who has. Absolutely worth the trip

Very friendly host. There were chickens and cute pigs. Dogs everywhere (nice dogs). Absolutely beautiful scenery.
A lot of little spots and things to find while exploring.
Could see the Milky Way

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at Harrison Serenity Ranch :). We really enjoyed the nice bathrooms and showers available, but we still felt like we were rural camping. There were lots of nice little hikes to explore and beautiful scenery right at our campsite! Staff makes themselves available if you need anything - they were very kind and welcoming.

The location was terrific and the staff helped us find the best site. We were able to park a Camper Van with Awning, a car and still have good seating while also having a campfire pit about 40 feet away in a private spot where I fit a 15' tent with chairs around the firepit.
Had a blast seeing pigs, Newborn piglets, chickens, camp Dogs, Quail, hawks, Woodpeckers and even a Bobcat from a distance. Oaks and many other trees, great views from above the clouds!
The staff is friendly and everyone works together.

The campsite looked nothing like the picture that was shown. The out house was not empty and cleaned so we had to use the faraway restrooms. I will say the camp helper ( forgot her name) was very nice.

Had a beautiful time with family and friends. Kids loved the dogs and pet piggy there. Driving the long off road hill was not too bad if you have some experience driving off roads. Was worried my friends RV 25ft will have a hard time on the downhill, but it was actually easier for him on the downhill then the uphill. Will definitely recommend!

We tent camped and it was great! There are floating toilets and showers available. The land is very pretty and there is lots to explore. The ranch pig and dog were so sweet and highlights of the trip!

I loved tent camping on Sarah's land! The views were beautiful and directions were clear. My kid loved feeding a boar! On the downside the boar tried to gnaw a bumper of my friends car.

This hip camp truly was magical!! We had such a relaxing time during our stay. The views were insane and the camp hosts were very welcoming and informative. We were actually planning on only staying one night yet loved it so much we decided to stay for two! Definitely recommend :)

This place was the perfect little getaway for the weekend. Vicki and the staff onsite were very kind and welcoming. One of the things about this place that is so special are the views. I was afraid at first that our campsite wouldn't have such spectacular views as in the photos, but I was pleasantly wrong. The sounds of the singing birds was a personal favorite. This ranch has a very healing and peaceful energy to it. The facilities were were well kept and clean and stocked. The other campsites are also far enough so you feel you have some privacy.
I’d recommend coming in a vehicle with good clearance and tires suited for rugged roads. The drive up to the ranch was definitely an adventure and beautiful, but made me a bit nervous as I made the mistake of taking my Hyundai Kona with older tires. Thankfully we made it up and down safely, and I'm look forward to coming back again and showing friends this lovely place!

Camping at Harrison Serenity Ranch
Great experience with the host and campground. Bathrooms were co-ed and extremely clean. ⚠️ warning - the road getting there was pretty rough. If you have a high clearance vehicle like an SUV or Truck then you will be fine. If you have a low car you may want to consider this as we did have spots on the road that we scraped the bottom. Site had some of the best views I've ever experience. Not sure how strong the rules were enforced as we had a group that came in Saturday and turned the whole campsite into a music festival the whole day and screemed and yelled throughout the night...so much for Serenity :(. You can hear other groups complain about the loud music (like when you stop next to another car with heavy sub woofer bass music)

The land is gorgeous, the fellow campers are great and the host, Vicki is incredibly gracious i highly recommend.
Her work on this land has made it a beautiful serene place.
The drive up is a bit bumpy but our tesla made it without damage and the orchard you drive through is amazing

Vicki's property was a dream. The land itself was very well-kept and spacious. You weren't too close to other campers and when I did run into other campers, they were very respectful and courteous. The noise policy was abided by all.
I felt like it was just me and the trees (and my dog). Who was also allowed off leash!! Percy enjoyed it very much.

Such a lovely place! The host is super nice, and there are the cutest dogs and little pigs running around. The campsites are spacious, private, and you can even have a campfire! It’s beginner-friendly too — perfect for a chill getaway. This was our second time here and we loved it just as much. Plus, the starry night sky is magical!

Our stay was lovely. The views were amazing! We camped. There were a few flying intruders but we used a bug zapper and problem solved. The ride up is rough and off road but we saw a Tesla up there, so I guess it depends on your experience. We will be going back! Vicki was great, VERY accommodating and welcoming. We loved that dogs walk without leash and the pigs were also a highlight. Oh, and the night views... see you soon, Vicki!

Amazing Easter

Camping at Harrison Serenity Ranch
We had an amazing time! The first night we were there we were in the clouds all night the following day it was beautiful and sunny, and you could see far far into the valley. We have a 22 foot trailer and it was a bit dicey getting it up the hill but once there we were able to navigate it into our spot and enjoyed three nights.
It’s incredibly peaceful there. Vicki the camp host was amazing and came by several times to check on us. Huge shout out to Solo who was an amazing camp dog and kept coming around to our campsite. We also had our daily greetings by Puba, mini potbelly pig, who for the record thinks he’s a dog. Our dog enjoyed time with him and he was fun to have around.

The view, land, and campsites are simply amazing. I would caution that the road to the ranch is dirt and filled with large holes. I wouldn't recommend taking a normal car up this 3k foot climb. I was in a minivan and made it, but had to be very cautious and very slow, five mph or so, much to the annoyance of the trucks and jeeps trying to pass me on this single lane mountain road.
