Hidden Hill Ranch & Retreat LLC

Camping here is a BREEZE from start to finish. Greeted by cute Ranch dawgs and the sweetest man on a quad, we’re guided to our hand picked camp site, selected for ultimate noise deflection. Our big group and amplified sound would not be a problem as there NO “bad sites”. Careful terracing of the land has made every campsite very private with the same EPIC view so theres never any campsite envy/regret.
It just got better as the day went on too. Mazen took a bunch of us for a ride around the property in his old Ford truck, and was incredibly accommodating, even dropped an extension chord down for us. So many elements make this place an easy choice, location location location - its 5 min from the country store and the biker bar for easy pickups of supplies and a burger, or at the Lookout for country Breakfast just 8 min away, a glorious waterfall with pools just 5 min drive, a proper market down the hill maybe 15 min, the lake maybe 20 min, hiking & biking trails galore, I mean YOU ARE IN THE STATE PARK, what more do ya want?
Ok shade, ya may want shade, so bring it, it can get hot and most of his trees burnt down in the big fires last year, which sucks for many reasons except - the VIEW- it is miraculous and unobstructed, worth the price of admission and you wont find service and freedom like this in a state park - promise!
Not to mention adult time - I LOVE the freedom of having my coffee naked, and that is allowed. Also NO KIDS, so smoke that phat joint in the nude with out worry of someone cruising by your camp with their kiddos on training wheeled bikes.
The best time is the night. He’s got loads of wood so don’t bother lugging it here, just buy from him (TRUST), and set your fire in the ring provided and enjoy a HUGE starry sky without light pollution. Enjoying the view for miles, we set up a movie projector and watched movies with other campers we met, making popcorn over the fire - highly recommend that diy.
Facilities were adequate, toilets, running water, (all still being rebuilt) and he was very accommodating of local activities, recommendations, even invited me in for the best hummus ever. I look forward to seeing him expand the amenities and will stay tuned. Did I mention the security guard has a Macaw he let us meet and gave us special feathers!?
This place is MAGIC, the staff, their grounds - fantastic. Also Mazen really is AmaZEN! Well done and keep it up! We’ll be back!

Mazen and Theresa are amazing hosts. This is a super unique experience where the hosts go out of their way to make you feel like family. Very generous, full clean bathroom with hot shower, and amazing views. It’s really one of the best spots.

The whole experience is out of this world. First you're greeted by the owner Mazen a very welcoming man and an intriguing character. The view at night is spectacular with the city lights sparkling in the distance and the moon shining on lake Elsinore. At sunrise everything beneath is covered with cloud will make you feel like your flying.

In short this was the best camp site ever!!!

A 1 Hour drive from my house however it felt like a vacation. Although there were other campers there it felt like I had my own campground. The views were awesome. We had a full moon and clear skies to enjoy the city lights below. Thanks again for a nice escape

What an AMAZING place! We were in awe from the time we arrived and didn’t want to leave. The views at Hidden Ranch are breathtaking and viewable from every campsite. Our gas grill wasn’t working and Mazen provided us one, delivered to our campsite and all! I highly recommend staying here, it’s a must see. We can’t wait to come back!
The bathroom and shower were very clean and private. Our campsite felt like a private oasis, we didn’t notice the other campers around. We hiked to the waterfall and enjoyed a few hours hanging out in the shade there. It’s a quick trip to town if you need any supplies. Book it!

This was the perfect escape to reset ourselves after months of not being able to get out in nature. The views of the city below were just as perfect as we imagined — if not even more perfect! Mazen was not there when we arrived but had someone who showed us around and helped us get set up; later that night Mazen made sure to stop by and introduce himself and make sure we had everything we needed! Everyone was so friendly and everything was clean and well taken care of! I would definitely love to go back for a longer trip next time!

We had the most amazing time here!! The campsite was absolutely stunning with sweeping views of Lake Elsinore and the surrounding area. The site was totally clean and upkept, and within short walking distance of a very clean and tidy restroom with a shower, and also had access to a fridge!! In addition to the site being fantastic, we had the best time hanging out with Mazen and Teresa! This trip was all around filled with amazing vibes and I would definitely recommend it! The work Mazen has put into the property is astounding, and we were so lucky to be able to spend such an amazing night here. Thank you Mazen!!!
