Warm hospitality

Our family's two-day adventure at this enchanting camping site in Fallbrook was nothing short of magical, thanks to the incredible hospitality of Jeremy and his wife. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for, like we were part of their extended family. Jeremy, the host, is a true gem! His warmth, kindness, and passion for sharing the beauty of nature made our experience truly unforgettable. He took the time to show our daughters his beloved animals - bunnies, chickens, and even his beautiful horses! The girls were thrilled and still talk about the encounter with wide eyes and huge smiles. But what truly sets this campsite apart is the gentle kindness of Jeremy and his wife. And let's not forget the fresh eggs from their chickens - a delicious treat that added to the charm of our stay! The campsite itself is picturesque, with lush greenery and serene surroundings that allowed us to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat, stunning scenery, and warm hospitality, look no further than this camping site in Fallbrook. We will definitely come back!

One of the best HipCamps!

I am so grateful for the three nights I spent at Horsetel! Jeremy’s land is the epitome of what HipCamp is about! He was very helpful as I navigated RV life and is full of information! I was there with my dog who also had a blast! I will be back as Horsetel is the time away you need even if you didn’t know it before you got there!

Horsetel River Retreat

A mountain oasis close to home.

Incredibly beautiful! You can park your camper or tent right in the middle of the mountains and feel surrounded by nature, only a small distance from Riverside or San Diego. Jeremy was super nice in getting us settled and then just checking in occasionally to see if we needed anything. He gave us directions to the creek and river which were FANTASTIC for the kids and gorgeous hiking trails. Be aware that depending on where you choose to be there may be goats, which are super friendly, and the roads to get there can be pretty tight and steep for certain kinds of trailers. This was our favorite camping trip of the year and we think we may come back again!

This was a great campsite/farm stay! Jeremy set clear instructions on the directions on how to find the campsite. We loved the goats that roamed around. There aren’t any other farm animals in the campsite so Jeremy was kind enough to show us his neighbor’s farm animals, which included many horses, donkeys, goats, rabbits, and turtles. The view from the campsite is beautiful as well since the hills surround the area. I would definitely recommend this campsite!

Horsetel River Retreat

Totally cool spot, highly recommen!

We had the most excellent time at Jeremy's spot. The Mantis camper was really cool, and there are the sweetest roaming goats and sheep on the site. Jeremy brought us to the horse stables and we headed out on the best horseback ride where we rode along the trail in the preserve. The spring flowers and fauna were madly blooming, and crossing the Santa Margarita River was the most fun because the heavy rainfall cause high water. The horses were belly deep! fYI we ate dinner at Rainbow Oaks Restaurant and it was delish! There's a little country store and antique shop next door. We saw peacocks, red tail hawks, and ducks. My 8 year old son had a ball. It rained through the night and listening to the drops fall on the camper was so calming. Beautiful sunrise. And Jeremy checked in on us and let us know to reach out if he needed us. He also took some great footage of us on the horse ride. All in all, excellent end to my son's spring break. Thanks again Jeremy! And Karan and Annie!
