An Apple Hill u-pick orchard reportedly growing around 35 apple varieties — an unusually wide selection — but with no confirmed website, pricing, or season dates, and two conflicting phone numbers in circulation.
Denver Dan’s Apple Patch is a Camino, Apple Hill orchard reportedly known for an unusually wide selection — around 35 apple varieties, per research notes — open Monday and Thursday through Sunday, 9am to 5pm, with Tuesday and Wednesday as closed days. It’s also flagged as dog-friendly. What’s missing from the record is anything close to an official source: no orchard-owned website could be found, there’s no pricing or confirmed 2026 season window, and even the phone number comes with a caveat.
The standout detail in the research notes is the reported count of roughly 35 apple varieties. That’s a notably broad selection compared to most orchards in this file, many of which name somewhere between three and ten varieties, if any at all. It’s worth treating “roughly 35” as a general reputation rather than an exact, current inventory — variety availability at any u-pick orchard shifts through the season as different apples ripen and get picked out, so a current variety board at the farm gate is the most reliable way to know what’s actually pickable on a given day.
The reported days — Monday and Thursday through Sunday, with Tuesday and Wednesday closed — stand out because most orchards in this directory are either open daily or closed on a single weekday. A two-day mid-week closure with Monday open is a slightly unusual pattern worth double-checking before you plan a visit around it, since it’s easy to assume “closed Tuesday” also means “closed Monday” or vice versa.
Unlike many of the other Apple Hill orchards in this directory, no orchard-owned website was found for Denver Dan’s during research. That matters because it means none of the details here — the hours, the variety count, even the exact address — have been checked against a source the farm controls directly. Everything comes from aggregated third-party listings: Yelp, Tripadvisor, and DogTrekker (a source that likely explains the dog-friendly tag). That’s a thinner sourcing base than orchards where a direct read of the farm’s own site was possible.
Research surfaced two different phone numbers for Denver Dan’s — 530-644-2893 and 530-644-6881. The record lists the first as the more commonly cited number, but this hasn’t been resolved with certainty. If you call and don’t get through, or reach a number that doesn’t seem right, trying the second number is a reasonable next step rather than assuming the orchard simply isn’t answering.
Beyond the phone-number ambiguity, there’s no confirmed 2026 season start or end date, no pricing for admission or picked apples, and no confirmation of whether there’s a cider mill or cider donuts on-site. For an orchard with a notable reputation on the variety front, the practical planning details — cost and timing — are the bigger gaps here.
The address is 4354 Bumble Bee Ln, Camino, CA 95709. As with the other Camino orchards in this directory, the coordinates on file are a Camino city-center fallback rather than a point geocoded to this specific address.
Denver Dan’s reported variety breadth — around 35 apples — is a genuine point of interest if variety is what you’re after on an Apple Hill trip. But with no official website, no pricing, no confirmed season dates, and some ambiguity even around the phone number, this is an orchard worth calling ahead about rather than one to build a precisely timed trip around.
