When you are looking for an adventure and a chance to enjoy the great outdoors, what is your go-to? From mountains, lakes, and rivers to beaches, bluffs, and coves, the options are extensive. The same goes for accommodations, whether you prefer a hotel with a view, a glamping tent, a cabin in the woods, or a primitive campout under the stars. When it comes to adventure, however, one of the most unique stays you can book is a real Old West experience like the one you will have when reserving one of these unique covered wagons in Southern California.
Banner Ranch Julian is a beautiful historic property with a campground featuring handcrafted wooden covered wagons for a unique Old West-style getaway under the trees.
