About SLO Country Camp
SLO Country Camp was once a part of the Serpa Ranch, one of the early ranches of the Central Coast. It’s remained a beautiful rural pocket in the Edna Valley area of San Luis Obispo. It’s quiet and peaceful, enjoy your morning coffee listening to all the birds waking up. There’s a private creek not far away that draws deer and wildlife. Just saw 3 deer run through out property 2 days ago. Owls, red tail hawks, eagles, squirrels and jack rabbits we see frequently. And you can listen to the coyotes howling at night. We’re surrounded by rolling coastal hills, vineyards, horses, cattle and also land apportioned to the Land Conservancy. Walk down our road and then left up to the top of the hill for a panoramic view of the entire area with the city San Luis Obispo at a distance. Our two sites are flat on decomposed granite pads. Both have excellent views and easy access to our common areas: big sink and counter, and a cold-water outdoor "beach-type" shower. Firewood is available for purchase at camp for those wanting to use the fire pit, or you can bring your own. The San Luis Obispo, Central Coast has so much to see and do! Hiking trails abound, our favorites are Bob Jones trail to walk or bike to Avila Beach, Johnson Ranch and Irish Hills for hiking hills, the Ridge trail for a view over Shell and Avila beaches, and the Harmony Trail to walk grassy cliffs by the ocean. Montano de Oro is only 15 minutes away with rocky ocean cliff trails that lead down to the coastline. We are 5 minutes from the beginning of the Edna Valley winery trail with 30 wineries or more I’ve lost count. Tasting and relaxing in great atmospheres. Our favorites are Biddle Ranch, Talley, Mailene, Chamisal, Bailyanna... but there are so many more. We’re 10 minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo, 10–12 minutes to Avila or Pismo beaches. Morro Bay is 25 minutes. And we’re just 5 minutes off the 101 for easy access to traveling. The Central Coast has almost everything for fun, adventure and food. Surfing, biking, hiking, ocean kayaking, paddle boarding, golf, wine and beer culture, ranch lands, shopping and restaurants and we’re close to it all.

[hipcamp aggregate summary]
This was easily the best campsite of our trip up the California coast. I would love to return. The place was very easy to find. The hosts had thought of everything. There were 3 seating areas, a chandelier/ solar lights and great instructors about the surrounding area. Plenty of space - and a sink as a bonus. The outdoor shower was wonderful after a long day of hiking! Ken came to check on us and we asked about a great hike in the area. He suggested Islay Hill (and many more) - and we went the next morning. Great views of the area! The sunset in this place was the best of the trip - this is …
The site was adorable and well kept! The host came out to greet us and was so hospitable. Firewood, sink, lighter fluid, shower, porta potty and chairs were all available for our stay. The calming hills and peaceful orchards make for a perfect site. Would totally recommend!!
We had such a great time celebrating my daughter’s birthday here! The setting is beautiful, and the sites are clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. Ken and Judi were so welcoming. Ken greeted us on arrival and showed us the highlights, which was a nice touch. Close enough to town for convenience, but still feels like a getaway. We will definitely come back.
Loved our stay. Very comfortable and quiet. Beautiful location. Friendly hosts. Recommend!
We had such a wonderful stay! The hosts were absolutely lovely and made us feel so welcome. The property was beautiful and so incredibly cute. We brought our kids, and they had the best time exploring around the property and taking it all in. The bathrooms were very clean, and having a sink was such a nice and appreciated necessity. Everything about our stay felt thoughtful and comfortable. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely come back to visit!
