100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
This was originally a Girl Scout camp called Singing Pines back in the 30’s. You’ll see as you roam around some of the original buildings and structures. It hasn’t been in operation as a Girl Scout camp for over 20 years. The neighbor camp bought the lease but haven’t had the funds to revive it yet. Learn more about this land: The Skoolie is a converted short bus with two love seats that convert to an RV queen bed, sink, stove top, dinette, and over head lights. Outside is a private meadow with a short walk to a small lake. You can take out the provided sit on top kayak or bring your fishing gear. Outside the Skoolie is a picnic table, fire pit (firewood included) and a hammock. Up the hill, a very short walk is the private campground toilet facility. This is not shared with anyone else. No cell phone reception no linens bring a sleeping bag or warm blankets. You can charge your phone in the Skoolie for a sunrise alarm or just to take pictures.The Skoolie is a converted short bus with two love seats that convert to an RV queen bed, sink, stove top, dinette, and over head lights.

Angeles Crest Skoolie
Fun going back to skool
The Skoolie is a fun and unique way to camp. We loved have some creature comforts and being in the woods at the same time. Cool and creepy (abandoned summer camp) places to stroll around and explore. Peaceful and secluded location. Felt much farther away from the hustle and bustle than we actually were. Thanks for the great place!

Angeles Crest Skoolie
Beautiful Serene Place. Secluded, private with no other campers around. The bus was comfortable. The water for dishes and the ice chest was useful to very helpful. Will be back and for a longer stay.

Angeles Crest Skoolie
Great place to get away from the city. I like that its not too far from LA but still very secluded up in the mountains. Loved the privacy especially at night. No cell reception and internet. You are in the woods so there’s a good amount of bees and flies so prepare for that if you are visiting during the warmer months. I brought a bug net canopy type thing which helped a lot having peaceful meals during the day. When I stayed, the water level at the pond was pretty low so we didn’t do much there. All in all, would recommend to those who want the private camping experience with some added amenities!

Angeles Crest Skoolie
Comfortable nature getaway
Brian’s skoolie was the perfect nature getaway. My husband and I, along with our dog, came out to the mountains to beat the heat for one night. The skoolie was thoughtfully stocked, including with potable water, cooking utensils, and games. Although the convertible bed looked clean and comfortable, we chose to camp in our tent so we could see the stars. As some other reviews mentioned, the lake is small and you can’t swim in it, and we shared the space with a lot of insect wildlife (just part of nature), but as long as expectations are set, it’s wonderful! Easy access to the Pacific Crest Trail, although we didn’t go very far because the weather was hot. What a unique experience. Thanks, Brian!
