Rancho Ybarra

Very beautiful place. Peaceful and the we're blessed to be alive enjoying the beauty of nature and God's Love.

Awesome place to camp or to visit for one day. The owners are super friendly. I would recommend this to family's who want to have fun . They have a big pool,basketball court and a huge park to play soccer oh and a river. It's safe and it's a Christian park so you know most of the people are believers of our LORD N SAVIOR JESUSCHRIST!🤗

It's been a great place to have alone with God and away from where you live. You must bring your own things and it does need more TLC but I don't go for the commodities. I go to have a time alone with God and the nature and privacy of each room is great!

I spent one night at Rancho Ybarra as part of a training with my church and I'm glad it was only one night! The overall experience was terrible! The whole place is in dire need of repair. Giving it just 1 star doesn't even begin to explain how bad it was. Don't camp here!!! As soon as we opened the bedroom doors, the smell of dirty bathrooms punched our nostrils, and the people with sensitive gag reflexes got teary-eyed right away. The smell didn't go away even after we let the door and windows open for a few minutes. The bedroom carpet in the rooms we used, and the carpet in the meeting room, were completely stained with what looks like spills from years ago. The floors were completely covered with crumbs, and they looked like no one bothered to vacuum for our stay. I saw a couple of dead roaches lying around too. The people in my room got flea and tick bites. Bedbugs? For the looks of it, this place hasn't been fumigated for a long time. The water in our shower didn't heat up at all, even after we let it run for a while. Those of us who wanted to shower at night did so with cold water. None of the restrooms stalls outside closed properly. Every single latch I tried was broken. The communal shower rooms are also in need of repair as shower heads and stalls are corroded and rusty. There were no streams or lakes. There is only a small body of stale water, mossy, green and bubbly. One thing is to stay at a place that is rustic and purposefully sparse but CLEAN (those actually make for a very nice experience), and another is to stay at a rundown place that is dirty and poorly maintained. Camp Ybarra is in desperate need of  major renovations and until they do it, you’re better off choosing to stay elsewhere.

The facilities are not as cared for but not the worst I've seen. Bed bugs in the dorms, low water pressure depending on how many people are using showers. The campgrounds are great! Love the creek and trees. Beware the nightime skunks! Overall a hidden gem not to far from the city but still secluded.
