Many sites that are listed as shaded have had trees cut. Unfortunate but of course necessary. Recreation does not have up to date info for the sites. Luckily the weekend we visited was quite empty and the host who was friendly and thoughtful, approached us on arrival offering a better, shaded site. It was much appreciated. Wilderness trail access directly from the campground was excellent. Coyotes are very active so keep your pets close. Temecula is on the way in and easy access for firewood or anything you need to pick up. Being so close to a main road, cars are heard at all times while at the campground. Neighbors in the valley have roosters and dogs that were very noisy. Still was an enjoyable stay.

small campground with well-stocked pit toilets. the highway is just outside the campgrounds and you can easily hear the cars driving by in the evening and early morning. when the cars arent going by you can hear coyotes howling and owls hooting.

We enjoyed our long weekend stay here. It's a lovely campsite with a very friendly camp host, but it's in desperate need of some TLC. The picnic table sets are old and most are damaged with peeling paint and splinters, the grills are old and some are missing or broken. They could also do with better signposts on the road - we had to guess that we were in the right place. And Google maps does not have the correct position of the entrance.

Got a pretty rough site (14) on the website without realizing, but the camp host was a great guy and allowed me to move to a different spot. Friendly and diligent host. Beautiful campground. Would recommend.

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.
