Hands down one of our favorite spots in the area! Some of the most unique and delicious ciders, truly crafted and curated by some amazing minds. There's also delectable other items they have for purchase like jams!! Service is 10/10. They know what they're doing here. There were board games and plenty of areas to sit indoors and outdoors. Extra points for having Summit, the friendly gray standard poodle who kept us company.Definitely worth grabbing a flight or two because of the variety they have on-site. The standouts were the Love Bug which had a passion fruit forward flavor and the Cab(?) which was a blend with red wine- such a winner! My husband loved the whiskey blend and I adored some of the spice forward creations with guava and habanero (yes please!) We look forward to returning and bringing home more bottles of our favorite ciders!

Awesome little local jaunt.We went knowing it's off season just for a corn dog, nice drink and get our dog out.Awesome experience, beautiful spot with really awesome customer interaction from both the bake shop and brew barn.Got greeted by a super friendly poodle, allowed to wander the property and finished the first visit (of many, hopefully) with the best drink I've ever had; Jimmy Hoppa which is the drink of dreams combining cider, beer and a little extra big bubbles ala champagne. Cheers, Star 'cause you ain't hidden anymore.

Hidden Star Camino is a place I just discovered a few months ago along the series of Apple Hill ranches. This was my second time coming, and it did not disappoint My friends and I were in the area trying to make our final Apple Hill run before most of the ranches are closed. After a hike to Bassi Falls in the rain and snow, we knew we deserved a drink or 2, and I knew Hidden Star Camino was excellent the first time I went. It is a very nice and relaxed Apple Barn type of atmosphere, with Christmas lights setting the mood and some Connect 4 for entertainment. When it was time for us to order, the man at the bar serving the as very personable, helpful, and knowledgeable which honestly added to the already high quality of the experience. I ordered the Sugar & Spice hard cider, which I initially tried in early November, but not as a pour. I'm telling you this drink is so good...it provides the perfect holiday buzz, spiced with the typical holiday spices. It is smooth, not overly sweet, and you can hardly tell there is alcohol. My friends and I enjoyed our drinks over the course of a good 40 minutes or so, just enjoying the whole experience of connect 4 while savoring every single sip in our cups. We knew there is nothing else like this and ordered 2 growlers on our way out for our upcoming ski trip after the new year.

Let's hear it for Hidden Star! Hip hip hooray! Hidden Star is always the star of our visit to Apple Hill, and this year was no different. Last year we met the owner in the cider room, same place we found him this year too, and he shared a bit of his vision for the future of this gem. It included a long list of great updates ahead, and this year you could see the some of them already taking shape. This highlights for us are the great patio seating, delicious and diverse cider offerings, friendly staff and of course, the great playground. We make this a stop every year and will keep it on our annual stops. We just love it here.

Cider Bar and Bakery in Apple Hill [Camino CA]Came to Hidden Star for their craft hard ciders and baked goods. While daughters went to the Cider Barn for their hard cider flights I went to the bakery instead. The line was long but it was worth it because after a bite of their pillowy soft mini apple cinnamon roll it was love at first bite. Oh, we also bought some apple fritters. But that's not all... the bakery also has an assortment of raised donuts, cider donuts, pies, jarred goods, and lunch items. The sparkling apple cider was delicious.There were craft vendors and a large kid's play area. There was plenty of outside seating but the place was packed. Would've loved to explore more. There was also a kids party going on at the time. Daughters enjoyed the hard cider flights inside the Cider Barn. They have a couple of long table seating inside.Instagram: @hiddenstar.applehill Review #3563

The owner was so sweet and treated us like old friends. We enjoyed the cider and dog friendly location. Would recommend trying the cider donuts and eating outside! It was beautiful!

Lots of great tasting hard ciders to choose from! Long line but moved quickly. Lots of seating and shade, dog and kid friendly. Cute little shop also for some food/snack options and things they make. Had a pizza food truck when we went, was okay but definitely a bit expensive for what it was. If you love cider then this is a must try!

Very cool farm to come to if you have kids. Lots for them to do. Old airplane, fire truck, boat, big rig cab, a little town to run around in and a pirate ship. The apple sling shot was fun. Bag of 12 apples was $12 and you have these pre set up slingshots you shoot the apples into the field and try to hit these two pans to win a prize. We failed but it was fun. The vendors in the barn were friendly we found our ornament for the year a Sasquatch hiding in the trees. Only $5 for a hand made wooden ornament was a great price. We will bring the grandkids next time to play and try Apple pie and apple cider.

Been here many times since we discovered it a few years back. Tons of cider options, flights are self-choose, before you go in the barn, so it's quick for them to pour your samples and get to the next person. They have a lot of their ciders bottles, but be warned it should stay cold, so come here last or bring a cooler chest. They have a pumpkin patch and a bakery, which includes lunch foods such as a pesto turkey sandwich and apple grilled cheese. Tons of room in the shade to sit. The day we were there they also had wood fired pizzas from a local vendor.The highlight of this place for kids is the giant playground area. They have a real firetruck, a real airplane, some other trucks, tons of little wooden houses, giant crawl through pipes and a pirate ship. The sand play area is a really high sided bin, so the sand doesn't get anywhere and little ones can't technically crawl away. Kept the kids busy for a long time while we enjoyed our cider.Parking fills up quickly and there's often daycares here with their group of kids on weekdays, so arrive early if you want to be at the crowds.

Great place for kids and families. The play ground is massive with vehicles, tube tunnels, tire swing, balance beam, teeter totter etc. took my 7 year old in February when the weather was in the 60's. On a Saturday it wasn't busy but there were 10 kids from toddlers to 10. I enjoyed a flight of ciders while my kid played for 2 hours. I bought some ciders and homemade pickles. The bakery had a small but good selection of pastries. Lots of picnic tables. Every table has an umbrella. Great place for dogs to roam around too. They had a pizza vendor that set up shop and offered specialty flavors with great ingredients. Was perfect for lunch without having to go somewhere else. The owner said the playground was going to be upgraded in the next few months. I'm looking forward to coming back.
