The Unhitched Ranch is a family run Clydesdale and Texas Longhorn Ranch. Clydesdales and Texas Longhorns have been the focus of the family owned and operated ranch. The Ranch is approximately 40 acres and is tucked away in a very unique area of Southern California and has spectacular views of the local mountains and city lights. This quaint little canyon is nestled between Loma Linda and Moreno Valley, and is home to about 800 free roaming wild burros that visit frequently.Recently we have added a Gazebo that you can camp near or under as well a a horseshoe pit, and tether ball. We typically only open the ranch to one group of campers at a time so more than likely you will be alone with us on the ranch. There is plenty of room for larger groups, feel free to contact us

Awesome site. We got a tent site with no view and could still see the ocean. It was clean. They provide wheelbarrows to haul your stuff to the site as you can’t drive your vehicle to it.

It’s not a camp site away from the luxury of the city. Across the street from the beach and 10 minutes from a grocery store. But its charm is in the quietness that requires you to take a few minutes in appreciation of the present. Took my kids and had the best time, like exotic camping in the back yard. Gone twice in a month this place is a gem. Nothing fancy, but definitely a good weekend trip with friends family or both.

Had an amazing time and great experience here. Check in and check out was a breeze. Very helpful staff that helped us from start to end with everything. The views and “feeling” was exactly what you expected from a Malibu beach stay. The place was very clean and beautiful. I’d definitely recommend this experience and would come back again for sure.

Second time visitor to this gem of an RV Park where I camp in spot overlooking the mighty Pacific Ocean there in Malibu. Each time I can’t believe how fortunate I am to be able to take in the epic experience of being there!! Oh… with short walk across PCH, you’re sitting on the beach!! I SHALL RETURN AGAIN.. I’m sure of it!!

We've been here a few times and plan to come back again. Facilities are clean and convenient, the views can't be beat, and the location in general is excellent and close to lots of other activities. The camp sites can be a bit of a walk, but they provide wheel barrows that are pretty giant to help with your stuff so it's not a big deal. We came on a holiday weekend this last trip and they had a DJ on the lawn and $3 tacos, so that was an extra bonus that made things festive. Neighbors at the tent sites have always been kind and considerate so far. Looking forward to our next trip soon!

I loved the beautiful ocean views, especially at sunset. Also, it was great to sleep under the stars. Next morning, we had a great hiking on the Coral Canyon Trail, adjacent to the camp site. I wish the campers at the next lot had not been talking loud at late night.

The best big rig friendly camping near Arcadia guide
Where to go
Big Santa Anita Canyon
About 15 minutes north of Arcadia in the Front Country, Big Santa Anita Canyon (popularly known as "The Canyon") features miles of trails and lots of camping options. Primitive tent campsites are first-come, first-served—free permits may be required to camp. Among the six campgrounds in the canyon, many are equipped with picnic tables, firepits, concrete pads, and wood grills. After setting up camp, birdwatch or splash in the Big Anita Creek, or discover the beauty of the Sturtevant Falls along one of the 12 hiking trails.
Saddleback Butte State Park
An hour and a half north of Arcadia takes campers to Saddleback Butte State Park. Saddleback Butte is a granite mountain top that towers thousands of feet above Antelope Valley. Take the 2.5-mile hike to the peak on trails lined with creosote bushes and Joshua trees. Equestrians can ride on horse-friendly trails throughout the valley, as well. Pet-friendly campsites are first-come, first-served and can accommodate tents, RVs, and travel trailers up to 30 feet. Many campsites in the park also have fire rings and BBQ grills, as well as shade and wind blocks.
Topanga State Park
Topanga State Park sits in the Santa Monica Mountains near the Pacific Ocean. Explore geological formations like earthquake faults and marine fossil beds. Then hike some of the 36 miles of open grassland trails surrounded by live oaks. Mountain biking and horseback riding trails are also available—many lead to stunning Pacific Ocean views. Since Topanga Canyon is within Los Angeles limits, some trails, like the unpaved Mulholland Drive or Eagle Rock, offer views of the city. In nearby Malibu, campers can sightsee and beach camp at several campgrounds that offer drinking water, fire rings, RV hookups, showers, and flush toilets.
When to go
Campers can visit Arcadia year-round. The city has hot, arid summers with clear skies and very low humidity. Average temperatures are in the 80s. Long, cool winters are moderate and mostly dry. November through mid-March see average temperatures below 70°F. Campers may want to return in spring and fall to experience migratory wildlife, as well as desert, mountain, and valley foliage blooms.
