If you want to connect with nature but don’t want to rough it in a tent, try a covered wagon instead. More “glamping” than camping, a covered wagon stay is an experience in itself. Ventura Ranch KOA Holiday in Santa Paula offers a variety of accommodations including tent and RV sites, cabins, teepees, safari tents, and Conestoga wagons. There’s nothing quite like this campground and there’s certainly nothing quite like spending the night in a wagon.
Ventura Ranch KOA Holiday is a one-of-a-kind Southern California campground. Located in Santa Paula in the foothills of Topa Topa mountains, this 76-acre destination offers something for everyone.

Also note, there is no kitchen or bathroom inside and pets are not allowed. But these are small sacrifices to make for such a unique overnight adventure. These wagons still offer quite a bit more comfort than what the early settlers had!
