Casini Ranch Family Campground

Annette Dobler

The spaces at Cassini Ranch are overpriced, dusty, and surrounded by Poison Oak. My husband's exact words were: 'I have never seen this much poison oak in one place in my life!' We camped with two high energy 4-year-olds which resulted in a lot of stressful moments to keep them away from the poison oak surrounding the campsite on 3 sides. We all came home with some poison oak exposure. If we had any rain, we would have been swimming in a mud puddle. The facilities and playgrounds are run down. Everything looks like it has seen better days. There are some activities for children. However, the campground is full of young families with children, who are packed in very closely to each other. If you want a close to nature and peaceful experience, you will not find it at Cassini Ranch.

I’m not a gatekeeper… but if you want a safe, family-friendly, dog-friendly, memory-making campsite—Cassini Ranch is the magical spot. ✨🐶⛺️ They plan weekend themes (Labor Day = luau 🏝️🌺) and activities galore. I book site 56 a year in advance because it’s centrally located, perfect for tent camping, and holds 8 people—plenty of room for our crew + friends. Dogs? Everywhere. Kids? Everywhere. Friendships? Instant. My kids ride bikes, scooters, whatever rolls, and somehow end up with new buddies daily. One night my kid was roasting s’mores with another family while I patched up a random child with my Band-Aid stash (camp mom life 😂). The Russian River runs right through the campground—shallow enough for little kids, but also perfect for giant floaties, kayaks, canoes, rock jumping, or just plopping a chair in the water under a canopy all weekend long (nobody touches your stuff, it just stays there). Pure summer bliss. ☀️🛶🍉 Extras? Oh, they’ve thought of it all: • Cabins, tents, RV hookups—you name it. • General store + laundry (yes, civilized camping). • Movie nights, hula dancers, bonfires, hayrides, parades. • Volleyball, basketball, a playground, and the legendary jump pillow. • Bike parades where kids decorate their wheels with glow sticks and follow the golf cart caravan at night (adorable chaos). • Showers that are clean, hot, and timed by the quarter (6 minutes = 4 quarters; 7.5 minutes if you splurge another). 🚿💰 Security actually enforces quiet hours, so you get fun and sleep. And if you don’t feel like doing anything? Just sit by the fire, read your Kindle, sip something cold, and watch happy kids + cute dogs parade past your site. Instant serotonin. ❤️ If camping had a “best of” list—Cassini Ranch is at the top. Book early, trust me. Oh there’s small bats that appear at night to eat all the bugs! It’s cool to watch! And it only lets me post 50 photos but I have so much more to show you so instead go and enjoy this place yourself!

If you don’t have the luxury of spending top dollar for the “better” campsites I don’t encourage you to stay here. Not only will you pay a “booking fee”, you’ll pay the campsite fee, THEN pay for every camper within the campsite. Should that be included in the initial campsite fee?! I overheard my neighbor because they’re only inches apart how they got in trouble with staff for their kids riding around on their bikes over the speed bumps. They have very strict rules and are constantly watching over you. Don’t be a minute early or a minute late checking out because there will be even more fees applied. Definitely feeling like a money hungry place after my latest experience there.

This was our Maiden voyage for our first RV🎉on a whim we booked this place and my expectations were exceeded. We were previously tent campers for the last 18 years and had no idea what we were doing with an RV 😬every single person we came in contact with went far beyond and out of their way to accommodate us and help us to teach us. We were in the best hands possible for this Adventure! Casini Ranch had Marc take us to our campsite help us back in,help us set up our electric and our water. We even had a snafu 🤨and Casino Ranch had their own store to purchase the things that we needed for hook up. He even came back a couple hours later to check on us, I’ve never had this kind of customer service anywhere we’ve ever been. We also had an issue with our Gray water tanks being completely full! casini Ranch has a service where they come to your campsite and for a very small fee and a big tip well deserved, drained our black water and gray water tanks not once but twice💧💧💧 I could go on and on about how fantastic the services are,but the campground itself is in the most beautiful spot Our dogs absolutely loved the river Our teenagers. Had a great time on Their paddle boards and if you don’t have all the bells and whistles, they will provide it for you with kayaks paddle boards and even golf carts.We were only there for two days and can’t wait to come back for a week. We missed all of the excitement like the bonfire Saturday night, but the activity list at this campground is full of exciting things to do. We even saw a deer on Sunday night when most of the campground emptied out I can’t say enough about how fantastic Camping is @CasiniRanch Campground. If I could, I would give them 10 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏕️🚐🦦

For our families needs it does not get any better than this place. The staff assisted us to find the best spot for what we were looking for. Right on the river with easy access to Guerneville.
