Rumor has it our house was built by the famed western actor Alan Ladd as a secret getaway back in the 50s. There’s 5 acres, partly shaded by old mesquite trees and native Washingtonia palms that tower over rock lined paths. I recently fixed up our old 1949 tear drop camper for staying in after it had been abandoned for 30 years. It’s equipped with solar power, a gas burner, a pump sink, and a cooler.
This is a place for people that love old stuff! No marble countertops and stainless steel will be found. For lovers of the funky. There’s an outhouse, an outdoor shower, and a 9 foot deep swimming pool too. We’re situated between the San Andreas fault and the the Little San Bernardino Mountains, so spectacular hikes are a short walk away. After every golden sunset, the stars do not disappoint.

Hi, I’m Eric. I host a unique mountaintop campsite overlooking the Palomar Mountains, just outside Temecula, CA.
On the property, you’ll find a cozy A-frame cabin with views of the valley. Step out of your cabin to enjoy your own private lounge area with a propane fire pit—perfect for sunrise coffee or stargazing at night.
We’re about 17 miles from Temecula Valley wine country, 45 miles from Julian, 45 miles from Palm Springs, and around 60 miles from the beaches in San Diego. Nearby, you’ll find plenty of options for wine tasting, hiking, and exploring the surrounding mountains. Garage 79, a local pub just down the road, is close by if you want to grab a drink or bite after a day of adventuring.
It’s close enough for a quick getaway, yet far enough to feel completely removed from the busyness of everyday life. I look forward to hosting you on the mountain. (Any 2 wheel drive vehicle can make it up with ease.) Grocery stores are in Temecula 30min away.

Weekend Trip to Camp Squish Airstream - Joshua Tree
My wife and I dated at Camp Squish on a short visit to an event in the area. It is a small encampment centered around a beautiful airstream trailer just far enough away from the host’s home. Inside the trailer is a thoughtfully designed space with the exact amount of guidance and comfort to make staying here effortless and fun. The night was quiet and perfect for stargazing and the hosts responsive and welcoming. We were lucky to find this place.

Weekend Trip to Stardust on the Mesa
This property is 100% as described- I went expecting less as usually places over-sell their features but not here! From stepping in the front door and being greeting with a beautifully designed space which also smells really good, to listening to the fabulous record collection, taking a bubble bath under stars, relaxing in the hot tub and having a private massage- the whole place just flows really well together and the attention to details is just perfect. It really is a perfect place to relax and be close to amenities and the entrance to the JT park. You won’t be disappointed.

Perfect place to have a moment away and connect with nature. Also perfect to escape the heat of the desert! We stayed with our child in the RV Basecamp which has a patio with a gorgeous pasture view and the shared company of the cow and some wild creatures. Just down the way you can see Mr Bucky, the horse and have a nice little chat with him. Lodging was clean and has everything you need to support your meals preparation. We enjoyed walking around and just hanging out in such a peaceful, beautiful place. Kimberly is very thorough and detailed, I appreciate that a lot. We will check out another property here and stay longer next time!

We had an amazing time on Eric’s property. The A frame is incredibly cozy, and it’s easy to regulate the temperature using the fans, screen door, and AC unit. The bed is very comfortable, and you can see both the sunrise and sunset from bed.
The 360 degree views from the property are breathtaking, and Eric has provided several good places to sit and relax at all hours of the day.
Eric is a terrific host, and there’s a reason every review speaks so highly of him. He’s incredibly kind, and made sure we had everything we needed.

Amazing experience! Our 12 year old and both dogs had a wonderful time. Birdwatching in the early morning was relaxing, we even had a turkey hang out for a few hours.

Nice dog friendly, but quiet, place not too far from San Diego, with easy to walk trails perfect for our pooch and for us to stretch our legs without being overly strenuous. Beautiful views! We loved that Camp Chester was fenced in so that our 15 month old pup could fully enjoy herself on her first camping trip safely. Jackie the on-site camp host was so nice, just a lovely person. Propane fire pit was great! Only thing to watch out for are the ants, they are big and they bite and they are everywhere, even inside the trailer (keep your clothes & bedding inside your car during the day). Luckily they disappear at night. And don’t try to take a bath, the water heater is only big enough to fill the tub 1/4 full. But enough hot water to take a good shower.

Weekend Trip to Camp Deb's Place
We loved the cleanliness of the camp! Especially the school bus we stayed. I think it was very creative and rare to find.
Love to have spots to eat and stargaze in the night too!
Deb welcomed us and make sure we know the amenities. The bathroom was pretty maintained too!

Weekend Trip to Mineral Spring Date Farm
I really love how they respond right away and make sure you are comfortable. The farm was so clean. I will definitely go back again and recommend them to others.

I loved that the site we stayed at had its own private hot spring (great for kids to play in), spaced out sites from neighbors, clean bathrooms, and friendly hosts.

Great spot and good layout. The kids loved the bus. It was more spacious and comfortable than I expected.
One thing that could be improved is removing the motion lights inside the bus. The lights were on over my bed most of the night.

Weekend Trip to Casa Cobalt Desert Trailer
I absolutely could not be more pleased with my 3 night stay in this cozy trailer. I originally booked 2 nights, but Chris told me I could come in very late Friday after work, and that already told me how hospitable he would be. Upon arrival everything was set up for me to enjoy cozy desert comfort. It was so cute and had all I needed to enjoy my rest when needing to balance play in JTNP. Chris checked in with me often, and turned the cool on for me on a hot day so I’d return to a nice chill trailer. There is a roadrunner nesting in a yucca that I got to see right from the porthole. I used the rear entrance on my stay and it worked out great. The bed was so cozy. Brought my own blankets and pillow but pillows were provided. I napped on the orange fold out and watched Netflix using my hotspot on breaks from playing outside. I got take out and kept in the fridge and then microwaved it. So didn’t need to cook any of my backpack meals at all. The vibe in the trailer and energy on the property are amazing. Such a wonderful experience with such gracious hosts. Already planning to come back in the Fall.

Group trip
The house was beautiful and perfectly located to to view the night sky at night. The entire compound was cool to walk around and some really good hiking trails. Everyone else staying in the nearby spots were friendly and welcoming.
The pool was our favorite part, perfect weather to enjoy a full day out there
