About Heart valley ranch
To make sure our place is the perfect fit for you, please take a moment to read both the general property description and the specific listing of the campsite or accommodation you’re booking. We want you to have a great stay and avoid any surprises! Heart Valley ranch hosts 300+ acres of rolling pasture nestled along the beautiful Jackass Creek. Access to Yosemite via 120 takes 1 hour , Groveland 10 minutes, and Coulterville 5 minutes. You’ll find cows, goats, chickens, llamas and our two beloved livestock dogs on the property. Many pools to cool off in and sweeping sunset views from the highest point on the property. There is lots of nature to enjoy including bird watching, seasonal wildflowers, and other wild animals. We welcome all ❤️🌈 We highly recommend not bringing any animals, including service animals. We have two livestock guardian dogs that free roam the property and they are not friendly with other animals. IMPORTANT!!! Update jun19th: This year, water levels are lower than usual due to limited rainfall. As a result, swimming at the swimming hole will be closed starting in early July. We recommend planning accordingly and checking back here for updates as the season progresses. Thank you for your understanding!

Awesome time camping here! Julie was super friendly and introduced us to the adorable cows and llamas that cover the grounds. 10/10 would recommend!
The site was beautiful but the three minute walk up and downhill to get there wasnt worth it for us. Would maybe suggest picking the willow site and walking down to the swimming hole to swim.
Great hosts, wonderful site, will definitely be back!
Quiet, out of the way, close to all the places you'll want to see. Didn't get to spend enough time there to take advantage of all the fun thing to do. Great facilities, highly recommended.
I somewhat enjoyed tent camping on the ranch over the weekend. It’s a large property, yet the campsites are pretty close together. The willow spot is close to the parking and bathrooms, very spacious and shady. It even has a little table and chairs! It seemed perfect until we dealt with a really bad wasp problem, which made relaxing outside out tent and eating almost impossible. The swimming hole isn’t for swimming, the water is gross, but it’s still a chill spot. Walking on the property was very nice and the animals were so fun to be around. It’s located about an hour away from Yosemite.
