Nice area to be in cooler weather. There are dog friendly hiking trails right out of the campground (possible stream crossing). The frogs are crazy loud :). Some sites have more shade than others so do your research. Pit toilets were kept clean. Saw the camp host several times cruising the campground.

The worst camping experience I have had to date. Whoever the camp host is. Terrible host. It's absolutely horrible. I came up, and it was raining. I was "OFFROAD" so I could unload everything easier. The host drives up immediately, starts yelling at me, and I can't be off the road. I told him I understood I'm simply unloading since all the rain, and he said I don't care. You need to move your car now. Threatening me saying I'll call the police if I didn't. All while YELLING. I had even said 3 words when he started all the yelling. I will never go to this campground.
4 hours later. While just finishing eating. After I had moved my car. The man comes back again, saying your vehicle is completely off-road, and I told you this before. You don't move. I'm going to call law enforcement. I told him to call law enforcement because I clearly COMPLETELY OFF ROAD. I also told him he doesn't have to yell at me.
He claims he was hard of hearing, and so he speaks loud. If he knew this, then he should have approached differently, but he clearly was yelling because some campers from down the hill were yelling, "Is everything alright. Would NEVER RECOMMEND COMING HERE EVER, not with this host.
I've also attached pictures to his 2nd claim after I had moved that I was COMPLETELY OFF ROAD. That Host was a complete asshole. Where I was there was nothing but the black asphalt and some dirt. Then the tree next to me.
My area was far away from everyone.the only complaint was from him. I would never go here again.

I wish they would post pictures of the camp sites online. Me and my family got lucky with ours however there are some very small sites 1-6 in particular. Also some sites are very over grown.

What a beautiful campsite! Water spigots are nearby, toilets are clean, it's quiet, and trails are easily accessible. We heard the arroyo toads croaking all night!

Camp ground was well maintained. Though trails had limited markings there was never a question as where the trails led to. Some parts were a little over grown but the views made it all worth it.

We arrived at Dripping Springs campground after staying at Pechanga Rv park. Talk about culture shock! We loved it!! The trees, the quiet, nature! Itβs a darling little campground with lots of space between sites and nice hiking trails. We will return for sure!

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
