Welcome to our Hipcamp located on a 50-acre flower farm in the heart of Valley Center. As soon as you arrive, you'll be surrounded by lush greenery. The sound of the creek flowing nearby will immediately put you at ease. Our serene setting is the perfect place to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Our property is bursting with color and nature, thanks to the many types of flowers and plants that we cultivate here. You'll love wandering through the fields and taking in the beauty that surrounds you. Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for a peaceful getaway, our Hipcamp is the perfect place to disconnect and recharge. At night, the stars shine bright overhead, and the peaceful sounds of the creek and wildlife create a calming atmosphere that you won't find anywhere else. Whether you're camping in a tent, staying in a camper, or enjoying one of our glamping bell tents, you'll be able to fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of our farm. We can't wait to share our little slice of paradise with you! Follow us on Instagram @thunderinghawkretreat

Darrell was quick in responding to questions I had about the site. The view was very nice where we camped and private because of the hills. The bell tents were spacious and can fit additional air mattresses if needed. We did have to bring a propane tank for the firepit but it was nice and warm, plus we didn’t smell smoky after. The portable bathrooms were surprisingly cleaner than I expected. Make sure you bring your own water. Overall lovely place to get away with the family for a night ~

Nice location with pretty views. Douglas, the onsite manager, is so helpful and friendly. Spacious tent and comfortable bed! Three dogs roam on the property (2 Pyrenees and 1 Boxer) and will come visit you. Lots of frogs and roosters at night and some neighbor noises but overall peaceful.

The communication between Darrel and Douglass was so helpful!! They answered all of my questions and assisted when needed. The bed was super comfortable and the tent/yurt provided was super big and roomy. We used the grill to cook dinner and the propane operated fire for s’mores and everything worked out wonderfully! Location is very beautiful and perfect to relax away from home. Had a great stay!

Mixed feelings about our stay at Pu
We recently stayed at this campsite and had a mixed experience. The site itself was beautiful and spacious, with a lovely creek running through it. The sound of the creek was soothing and our kids enjoyed playing in it. The hosts, Darrel and Douglas, were communicative and helpful. However, the tent we stayed in (Purity) had a significant amount of mildew, which made my eyes water. The bathroom facilities consisted of a portapotty was located far from our campsite (about a 5 minute walk), which was not convenient for us. We had to bring our own blankets, charcoal, and propane, as these were not provided. 4 pillows and 2 king size beds with sheets were provided. Additionally, the firepit only allowed propane, with no option for wood. If the campsite offered a "bring your own tent" option, we might consider returning for the natural surroundings. However, the tent and amenities provided did not meet our expectations for glamping/lodging.
