WELCOME TO ASCENSION RANCH
Ascension Ranch is an off-grid paradise tucked away in an oak savanna along Folsom Lake with a unique and ever growing list of features and activities. Family owned, we're a small operation with big dreams. Offering a serene environment, an abundance of farm animals, and good old fashioned Ranch activities, we invite you to spend some time with us out on the Ranch!
Come play for the day or reserve a private campsite, and see what all the fuss is about.
Some of things you'll come across at Ascension Ranch include baby farm animals, sheep, goats, cattle, horses, more horses, ranch dogs, puppies, chickens, equestrian activities, secluded campsites, amazing views, access to endless trails around and of course, good company.
We are accessible from both highway 50 and 80, from which you'll take hwy 49 towards Pilot Hill.
Once you turn onto Rattlesnake Bar Rd, we are approximately 25 minutes / 9 miles away.
Turn LEFT on Ascension Lane (the last private road before driving into the Peninsula Campground & State Park). We are about 5 minutes / 1 mile away.
Stay to the RIGHT until you are at the 3-way split - take the road on the LEFT - then drive straight once at the gate please text the Ranch for Gate Code.
Welcome to the Ranch!
The site was great as it allowed us to social distance with our tents and could walk down to the lake. Really fun to have horses come to our site because we had a small pond that they drink from - very curious! Also goats and dogs - with puppies! - on the ranch. The owners were very nice and explained where to hike and the history of the ranch.
This ranch was the most perfect camping trip my family and I have been on. The area was amazing! I can’t even tell you. It was a few minutes to the Folsom lake which is the cleanest and prettiest lake I have been on. So many little islands to feel like your in a world of your own. The owners Jeff and Roshan are the friendliest and kindest couple. Jeff helped us get the RV level and set up and even took us for rides all around the 100 acre ranch by horse and side by side 4 wheeler. I 1000% would stay here and recommend it over any campsite around. Will be back next week.
Our hosts Roshan and Jeff were super friendly and very responsive to our emails and texts when we had questions regarding our upcoming stay. Our trip exceeded our expectations. Our 2 daughters had a blast interacting with the animals. The horses, puppies, sheep and goats. Our tent site was private from other campers. Our horseback trip was a beautiful ride to the lake guided by Angelica. Oh, and you can’t leave out spending our day lake side. It was the sweetest private cove. Felt safe to paddle board and float around in. We are looking forward to coming back. Thank you!!!
The land is absolutely beautiful! Their livestock is absolutely stunning as well. I camped at eagle's nest and had a breath taking view of the lake and had hawks flying over me constantly. An excellent spot for bird watching and gaining a better perspective! The family is kind, welcoming, and happy to show you around! Bring a wagon to eagles nest to help you get your supplies up and down the campsite, that will help because there is a steep hill on site. There are protective dogs on the ranch, so that helped me feel safe and the ranch owner was kind enough to check on me. The lake is not a far walk from the main part of the ranch and is a beautiful view. Overall, I had a nice, calm, and relaxing stay and will be back for another adventure!
Beautiful surroundings, visionary eco-friendly owner, and private camp ground on the shores of Lake Folsom -- perfect for family outings or scout events.
