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!

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.

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.

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.

This review is for spot 29 only. Great spot, large pull through with shade. Large enough our family members that reserved spot 15 (and were unable to pitch a tent due to tree logs obstructing the tent pad) were able to join us. Excellent facility and we will be back.

This review applies to site 15 only.
Many trees were cut down and there were large logs and remnant branches strewn on the site. There was no room to set up a tent. Fortunately a family member had another site which was large, so we were able to set up on his site.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Fires & fuel

  • Check fire restrictions before visiting, as wood and charcoal fires may be prohibited.
  • Buy firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect California's forests.
