Pineknot Campground offers a beautiful, well-maintained setting with friendly hosts, making it an enjoyable experience for many campers. The sites are clean, spacious, and mostly shaded, with convenient access to nearby attractions and hiking trails. While there are minor concerns such as noise from neighboring sites and the absence of showers, overall, visitors appreciate the campground's cleanliness, management, and friendly atmosphere.
Great location! Super accessible to mountain biking, pretty close to the village, and bathrooms and sites were spotless!! Overall, great experience! Camp host was super friendly and answered the door late when we needed fire wood! Oops! The only issue we had was with the coyotes!! They were super active in the area and we were woken many nights by them running and howling through camp. Unfortunately, our neighbors dog was taken by a coyote while we were there so just be cautious of all wildlife especially if you have pets or children!!!!
Campground is in a great location near the ski area. Great for biking, close to town and all other attractions. Sites are large and shady. Bear lockers are a bit smaller than what you see at other campgrounds, so bring smaller coolers and food containers. There was a bear in our camp site both nights we stayed and it did eat everything that wasn't in the bear locker.
The campsites are nice and spacious, plenty of shade, running water, clean facilities, it’s quiet at night, and our camp host was so awesome! He put on a magic show AND gave our car a jump after my battery died while packing to go home. We can’t wait to go back!
I really wish there had been hand soap in the bathrooms. I'm not sure what the reasoning is to have running water but no hand soap (and no soap dispensers), but I know it was unexpected for other campers too. It was a bit noisy on one night due to a group that played music past the start of quiet hours. I wish the camp host had been more on it, but overall I enjoyed our stay.
Almost every site is a rolling hill- caution which one you pick! The camp host (tall, skinny blonde haired guy) was exceptional! He was kind, patient, and not the normal crotchety- old fart that yells at everyone with a wife that gives everyone a disapproving look. The host kept the campground immaculate! One side note about entry- you have to enter the ski resort's parking lot and then do a sharp left to get on the back road!
We just wanted a low key and enjoyable trip for our anniversary. The area was nice for the budget, and a plus was seeing the host's kitten and playing with her when she would periodically come out. It was a little unclear about the check in process, but the hosts were pleasant enough and helped out.
Loved this place, we had a great experience. Took my family for our first camping trip here. Nice tucked away place, the camp host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

From I-10 in Redlands, take Highway 330 to Highway 18 in Running Springs. Continue east on Highway 18 at Big Bear Lake Dam, go straight at the dam and follow Highway 18. Turn onto Summit Boulevard and continue to a block wall. Turn left into the campground.
Pineknot is located near State Route 38, which provides access to the greater highway network. It is approximately 10 miles from Interstate 10 to the south.
In accordance with standard industry practices, Mountain Top Recreation will be assessing a $8 additional vehicle fee on the second vehicle in each single family campsite, and on the third and fourth vehicles in any double family campsite, provided these vehicles are not joined to the first vehicle by a hitch and towed onto the site. In the case of motorcycles, the first two are considered to be one vehicle and the third and fourth are also considered to be one vehicle. No additional vehicle fees are collected for bicycles. The fee will be collected at the Campground.
RV Length: Limited turnaround space restricts RVS longer than 25 feet.
