Live Oak Camp
Nestled in
pristine wilderness between the San Raphael and
Santa Ynez Mountains, lie 40 undeveloped acres
that were once a campsite for cowboys and can
now be rented for large events. Wildflowers
bloom year-round, and the only sounds are the
rippling river, the rustle of black-tailed deer,
the call of osprey and hawk.
