Come stay in Twisselman’s Cactus Casa on the historic Twisselman Ranch in beautiful Carrisa Plains California. The cabin is fully furnished with a queen bed, twin bunk beds, and a full pull out couch to accommodate plenty of guests.
We are located about 1 hour east of Paso Robles California a short drive off highway 58 and about 1.5 hours west of Bakersfield.
Carrisa Plains is known for its beautiful display of wild flowers in the spring time, incredible sunny days, and spectacular wildlife viewing. The ranch is also located a short 29 min drive from the Carrizo Plain National Monument and Las Padres National Forest.
Tule elk, prog horn antelope, and valley quail are just some of the animals you may encounter on our ranch.
Ask about visiting our pond 3/4 of a mile up the road. The pond is full of fish (bass, blue gill & sun perch) so don’t forget your fishing poles (catch & release).
Evening Fires- Your $20 per night (additional nights can be payed for upon arrival) rents a propane fire pit, great for roasting s’mores & the ambience of camping. Please do not cook any meals on them.
The summer days can get pretty toasty and the winter nights can get very chilly so check the weather before your stay and plan accordingly.
Also please note we are located an hour from the nearest town, no stores or gas stations. Please come fully prepared with your own food and beverages. We sell ICE!! $5 per 5lb bag.
- Cellular Service - Verizon is the only dependable steady service out here as we have a Verizon tower on the ranch. All other service is spotty if existent at all.
- Check in is anytime after 3pm, but no later than 9pm unless arranged with us (a $20 late fee will apply after 9pm). Check out is 11am on the day of departure.
