The Real Teal -VCT#1 - Pet Free
Great for Our Family and Young Kids
Was super easy to book, very responsive with questions ahead of the actual trip, and sorta feel they undersold the amenities/supplies available at the camper (we clearly overpacked, not expecting so many basics being available). It’s certainly tucked away, which is what we wanted for our family. Short drive to fishing, downtown Julian and misc day excursions. Last night had a loud neighbor down the valley, but that is certainly not the hosts fault, and it was a holiday weekend so it’s a gamble. Worth noting that we have a special needs child, and I felt perfectly comfortable giving him some freedom and also having pretty clear site lines. Plus being able to sleep with him in a camper while dad/other kid slept in a tent outside was really helpful for extra-special needs-mom-anxiety.

Great location, clean, good view.
Close to Julian, great for a family getaway.
Reasonably priced. Highly recommended.
RV Campsite #15 - Scenic Sanctuary
Overall, we had a good experience but the site is misleading and the site manager was quite rude. We booked a RV campsite that can accommodate 10 people but we had a party of 6. We had 2 vehicles with roof top tents and 2 small ground tents. The site manager confronted us and said we were taking up 2 camp spots. The campsite we were designated can barely fit 1 ground tent so I’m not sure how can that site fit 10 people. Secondly, he said we were causing problem’s because we called telling him that the bathroom door is locked and if he can unlock it for us to use. He stated that it was never locked before and no one uses it except us. The 2 days we were there I saw other campers using it as well. Lastly, there was no toilet paper and we had to remind his twice to bring some. Luckily we had a roll to use for the night. The owner of this property definitely needs to train his site manager to watch how he speaks to customers. We’ve been to many Hipcamps and all the hosts was great. This is by far the worst camp hosts we’ve experience.

# 9 The Zen Den - Modern Cabin
A very tranquil property. Definitely more of a family environment. The whole process of getting to the property was very easy.

Old campsite - no longer in service
Bad spot
Okay So this campsite is not working worth the price. It is really noisy as it feet from the bar and there is live music on Saturdays. It is also very small and you can see into the shower from your campsite. Could never find the bathroom as they are not marked, and there is no map. There’s not really much to do in the area and I think calling it Nature is a stretch.

Perfection!
Name any element: It's perfect! Affordable, memorable, and so accommodating! The hosts helped us in so many ways and made our stay worth it. 10/10 any day. Fire pit was my favorite part! And the RV had everything my kids needed to duck in a get a quick break from the outdoors that was as comfortable and still near us. Loved it!
