Seclusion, Serenity, and Silence are the best three words to describe this piece of heaven that we would like to share with you. Our 40-acre property is bordering Anza Borrego State Park with the darkest skies in Southern California and not a soul for miles. Whether you love stargazing, soaking in jacuzzi, reading a book in a hammock, hiking or riding a horse or an ATV, you can do it all in one place. The famous PCT trail is only a mile away from our property border. Beautiful Idyllwild and Lake Hemet are only 30 mins drive. You can rent a kayak and spend all day on the lake. Bring your off-roading toys and ride around the property. Have a dirt bike? The Cahuilla Creek Motorcross is only 30 mins away. Have a high-clearance vehicle? Go enjoy the scenic drive up Toro Peak (elevation 8,717'), or Palomar High Point (elevation 6,142'). No 4x4 necessary. The breathtaking Coachella Valley Vista Point is worth the 40-minute drive. Have a horse? Take a stroll down the Wild Horse Canyon and into the Anza Borrego State Park with countless trails and amazing desert scenery. In winter, soak in your fire-heated jacuzzi while admiring the snowy peaks of Santa Rosa Mountains. There's something for everyone.

What a fantastic spot! Julia and her husband were fantastic hosts. The additional details from firewood to fresh eggs made it a fantastic weekend. How can you complain when you can watch the stars from a hot tub! A great adventure!

My husband and I love this place! This was our second time back, and it was just as incredible. The hot tub runs at 101 degrees, the grill works great, and the yurt is a great little getaway with a very comfortable bed. We will continue to come here!

Camping with a View
I was looking for a special place to celebrate my Birthday camping and this site definitely didn't disappoint. This site has lots of room for multiple trailers, RV's and tents. The views from the site are gorgeous! The hot tub and hammock were a special touch that made this site even more relaxing. The host was very nice and super responsive when we needed anything. Bring an easy up with stakes for those hotter months since there in no shade in the site. I would 10/10 recommend staying here!

Starlit Jacuzzi. BYO tent/van.
What an amazing place!! <3 we had a great time there, we felt it’s perfect place for being out in nature, and watch the beautiful starts at night. we were lucky and sky was clear so we were able to watch the milky way and spotted 2-3 shooting starts as well. Their jacuzzi is really great add on. Very friendly and helpful host, 10/10. Just be prepared for the unpaved road for ~20-30 min, some moments I felt like wish we would had taken AWD with higher suspension but luckily it worked out for our 2 wheel drive. I will definitely recommend this place!!

Camping + Hot Tub = Awesome
Very cool spot, the campsites were really spread out so at our site you couldn’t see or hear anyone else. Felt removed from the world for a night, with a great view of the mountains and stars from the hot tub! The road was rough but passable with normal cars (carefully). The hosts were really helpful and even helped us try to find the drone we lost! The group site we were on was really large, great for our birthday group, the only complaints being that the wind hits that site stronger than other areas around it, and we had an unseasonably hot weekend so we really needed some shade. The host said they’re planning on putting some permanent shades up which will make this site pretty much perfect!!! Great trip, will come again!

10/10 recommend!
The Host was absolutely amazing! Very responsive leading up to and during our stay. The hot tub was such a neat touch & even had built in Bluetooth speakers! 10/10 recommend adding on the quad rental. We also added on the firewood bundle and it was well worth it. Really big dense logs that lasted way longer than the standard store bought logs. Location was great! Loved all the amenities, they really thought of pretty much everything. Grill with cooking utensils, extra camping chairs, lighters, coffee pods/keurig, spare paper plates, paper towels, soap, cooler, fan to keep the tent cool, A/C unit (it was 100 degrees outside so this was perfect), coloring books, games, even a guitar! Porta potty was super clean, had a cool flush feature so it’s not an open nasty pit, hand wash sink in there and it’s close enough to the tent not to be inconvenient but far enough away where it’s not gross. Unfortunately shower was not working. Tent zipper was also broken so we could not fully close the tent causing there to be quite a lot of bugs. Maybe a bug trap or something would have been helpful. Still an amazing stay would recommend even with those two things. We took 2 kids (6yrs & 4months) and they both had a total blast! Our 6yr old has been asking to go back since. Worth noting - roads are no joke! As long as you don’t have a low vehicle you’ll be fine but it definitely takes a confident driver.
