Ascension Ranch is an off-grid paradise with a unique and ever growing list of features and activities. Family owned and operated, we want to be that breath of fresh air from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life that everyone needs. With a serene environment, a healthy mix of farm animals, and good old fashion ranch activities, there's a little bit of something for everyone to enjoy. Some of the things you'll come across at Ascension Ranch include baby farm animals, sheep, goats, cattle, horses, ranch dogs, chickens, equestrian activities, hiking, biking, camping, archery, lake activities, amazing views, access to endless trails around Folsom Lake, grass-fed meats, fresh produce and of course, good company. Staying on the ranch can be as social, or as rural as guests choose. Camp alone, or bring others, whether it be your 4-legged companions or friends and family, we welcome all campers who respect and enjoy the great outdoors as much as we do.

Beautiful Oak Meadow land that is very close to the lake. The property is filled with super friendly and fun animals. And the owner was very welcoming. We will be back again next year.
Beautiful remote spot with amazing views, quiet natural surroundings and wildlife! Our host even helped us get our vehicle turned around for an easy exit.
Came here with 2 adults and 2 little kids and we had a blast! The animals were so much fun! We wanted to go horseback riding but that wasn’t able to happen and the kids were very disappointed. That was the main reason we booked this spot. With that we would still go back. Water access was also great!
Nice view. Clean flushing toilet. Flat site. Big fire pit with swiveling grill. Huge table. Cool dogs. Respectful hosts. This site was at the top of the hill at the end of the road, very private. Buy the eggs 🍳
Ascension Ranch has everything those looking to escape reality needs. Arrival is easy, following maps an easy route to get there, definitely suggest a truck or 4WD vehicle. The sites themselves are spread out and when we were there it was actually just us! The site was extremely spacious, and could have easily fit at least 15 people. The horses were roaming free just as stated and they’re beautiful. The ranch dogs as well were very friendly and one of them followed us everywhere (sweet guy). Overall, wonderful place to stay and bathrooms aren’t far at all.
