About Grey Oaks 2
This is great option for those who like to bring all their own gear to camp, and don’t need or want all the extras. Our new Primitive Adventures campsites are located on an established 5-star property. It’s a peaceful, secluded and private country estate. The 20 acre property starts out flat and then gentle to moderate sloped hillside with coastal live oak trees, eucalyptus trees, pine trees, meadows and many interesting landscape features nestled between the vast farmlands of North Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties. We are 15 miles from the Pacific Ocean. The weather is usually mild here and we have cool evenings. We do get days that are in the 90s sometimes in the summer and early fall, but we also have lots of shade with all the trees. There is wildlife like deer, turkeys and owls and so much more. We have horses and a donkey, separate from the campsites, so no flies or smell from them. We provide one hot water shower and there are 3 outhouse style toilets on the grounds. There is NO running water at the sites so we suggest you bring your own drinking water. There will be limited water provided for hand/dish washing. We are a pack it in/pack it out campground so please, be mindful of waste as we ask that you take it out with you. You may forage for plentiful eucalyptus and oak firewood for free, or pre-cut pine is available for purchase. Most of our weekends are fully booked at our Rustic Campsites already, so here is another chance to have yourself a weekend camping trip at our new Primitive Adventures campsites. We hope to see you soon! :)

Great spot, helpful hosts, but be aware of time of year when you go or check with host about overwhelming amount of caterpillars. Was there September 27th and had caterpillars on all the surfaces when arriving there. Couldn't use the table and had many of them land on our tent and try to cocoon. If creepy crawlies are not your thing id check with host. Luckily we had an awning so wasn't too worried about them landing on us while hanging out. Made for a hard clean up with all the locals critters. Spot wasn't as private as we had thought, other sites were about 40ish feet away. So similar to…
Zaks land was great! Our spot was spacious and quiet.
Nice spot in oak trees with super helpful hosts, nice bonfire, outhouses clean
What a wonderful site and a great host. The area is lovely and well maintained and lots of thoughtful amenities, like the box of “things you forgot” and plenty of firewood. Zak was friendly and flexible. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back.
This is a nice woodsy site, with water and composting toilets available, plus tables, a fire pit and a barbecue — all the comforts of home!
