Dripping Springs is still Temecula's best kept secret for local camping. The sites have shade and love the water spicket, fire ring, picnic table and handy bbq. Even the outhouses are clean and stocked with toilet paper. For a fun outdoor experience, I recommend Dripping Springs. Just 20 minutes from Town.

Our reserved campsite was a available for us upon arrival.. campsite and grounds were clean and tidy.
Pit toilet bathrooms( I don't care at all for) were clean and stocked with paper.
I appreciated the numerous water spigots throughout the camp.
Thank you for making our experience " memorable"

Camp host was nowhere to be found when checking in. Site description stated back in, but was a pull through. Sites not labeled with occupants dates or names. Loud party happening two sites down from me with a group of people yelling and playing loud music well into the morning hours. Camp host did nothing.

The campsite is pretty small. So in one spot instead of 4 tents we could only put 3 because of the small space. Also, we had a bad experience with some people camping and having a crazy loud party until 4am and no one was there to control it, we had kids that were sleepless and us too due to this. There are no showers so come prepared for that and the bathrooms are not clean since they are the ones with the hole on the ground. It gets pretty hot during the day not too bad during the night. Come prepared with bug spray!

Beautiful and peaceful campground. The campground was fully booked when I was there but this spot was still fairly quiet and peaceful.
No shade at spot 15. Slightly slopped. But perfectly close to water & bathroom, while also being tucked away and private.

The site was nice - lots of trees and good shade. We were far enough from the highway that we could barely hear it. The bathrooms are pit toilets with no running water (no sink), but there is water available nearby the campsite. Several birds were out in the morning and it was fun to watch them. We got a good view of the stars at night, but there was some light pollution from Temecula. Overall, it was the experience we were looking for.

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.
