1 night at Rock & Tree

Rock and Tree grounds were a magical and perfect spot for us to camp for the night in our Subaru with a Roof Top Tent. Tons of flat open space with trees to stay near. Easy and quick to get to off the freeway. So many comfortable spots to enjoy on the property: creative covered seating areas, cool gazebo lounges, hammocks, perfect artistic solar lit spaces abound. Taryn and Taylor were so upbeat and easy to work with and get us set up. Running cold water, primative toilets, perfect for what we needed to stay the night. Thank you!!!

Weekend Trip to SoCal Campground

We had a nice and relaxing weekend. Campground is nestled in a beautiful and peaceful area, and our campsite was private. We especially appreciated the nice and clean restroom and showers.

1 night at Detour n De Luz Fallbrook San Diego

Relaxing and peaceful camping trip. Was greeted by Allie upon arriving which was pleasant. I locked myself out of my car and she offered to help me. Even though that happened I still had an amazing time! Thank you Allie!!

2 nights at Splitrock Farm and Retreat

What a great property!! We were the only campers that stayed at the Oaks Grove community during our mid week stay, the dogs loved the freedom. We hiked around the property seeing the unique private campsites, domes, the “rainforest “ and of course the pigs and goats. This is a great location for group meetups or a private getaway. We’ll be back.

Weekend Trip to Secluded De Luz Goat Ranch

I felt in love with this spot. If you wanna really camp and enjoy being in nature this is it. We definitely will come back here.

Weekend Trip to Lakeshore Retreat

We recently spent a relaxing weekend camping at Ed’s property in Lake Elsinore, and it was exactly what we were hoping for! Booked through Hipcamp, the process was smooth and Ed was a responsive and welcoming host. The campsite itself was clean, spacious, and had stunning views of the lake and surrounding hills. We loved how peaceful and quiet the area was—perfect for disconnecting and enjoying nature. Whether you’re into hiking, birdwatching, or just looking to unwind under the stars, this spot is a hidden gem. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful camping experience not too far from the city!

Weekend Trip to SoCal Campground

Quiet beautiful area near Murrieta. Really enjoyed our stay here. Having a renovated and clean bathroom was a really big plus. Had ample space to enjoy the privacy.

Weekend Trip to SoCal Campground

Great site!! In a beautiful location, host was responsive and super helpful, and we will definitely be staying there again

Weekend Trip to Shadow Hills

We had a great stay, with a great host who greeted me when we got there. Site was as advertised, directions were spot on. It was a perfect spot near Galway Downs where my daughter had a tournament. Thank you again for allowing us to stay on your property with a nice view!

Weekend Trip to SoCal Campground

Cool little spot. Clean bathrooms, flushing toilets and showers. Water source available at every site. Will definitley be back, book site 8 as its the best, we stayed at site 4 and it might be too close to sites 3&5 but luckily we were the only ones there!

Weekend Trip to SoCal Campground

There’s something special about Fallbrook. There are a lot more trees there than most of the rest of Southern California. Which means lots of birds. You’re greeted by a chorus of them every morning when you wake up. I got a chance to meet the hosts and they are lovely couple. Putting this campsite together seems to be a labor of love for them. Clean bathrooms, warm showers, highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Falls Preserve

Hidden Falls Whispering Winds is a truly serene escape into nature. The surroundings are breathtaking—lush greenery and gentle winds, creates a peaceful atmosphere that’s hard to beat. One of the standout features is the thoughtful spacing between campsites, offering a level of privacy that’s often hard to find at other campgrounds. You really feel like you have your own personal slice of the outdoors. At night, the softly glowing solar lights along the pathways add a magical touch. They’re subtle enough not to disturb the natural ambiance, yet bright enough to safely guide your way. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in the overall experience.

Weekend Trip to Splitrock Farm and Retreat

What a beautiful location! The hosts were friendly and accommodating, and the grounds peaceful and quiet. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

7 nights at Splitrock Farm and Retreat

The combination of privacy, beautiful landscape and fantastic staff made for a wonderful stay. If we are in this part of the country again we will be staying here!

Weekend Trip to Villa Macala

The camp host David was so welcoming and made it a wonderful experience! The camp site is so much more beautiful in person than the pics can even express. It’s easy access to your car and bathroom, but you feel so secluded in your own little world in this hidden gem among the trees. Gorgeous views from the site and more if you want to explore on a few trails. There’s an outlet and fresh drinking water at the site so you’re not going without. The tent pad was just big enough for my 5-person tent, you couldn’t fit any bigger. Two picnic tables under the trees for shade, a cooking fire stove then a fire pit for s’mores and hotdogs. I can’t wait to go back, a lovely place!

3 nights at AntFarm LA

A beautiful way to spend a few nights down in here. The host is friendly and gives a great run down of everything I needed. If you’re looking a nice camping with a beautiful view this is the spot.

2 nights at Lakeshore Retreat

Very nice spot right on the water. Would recommend to anyone wanting to go relax and unwind near the lake.

2 nights at Rosemead 12 miles to DT Los Angeles

Its al small RV camp and not easy to find. To enter the place you have to enter a narrow road which is very steep. But there is water and electricity and the price is nice. Going to LA with a Uber is not to expensive. But if you want a easy campsite with a full hookup then you have to look elsewhere and pay a lot more.

11 nights at New Yurt City

Land access simple; even though I got stuck, management kindly change that by getting me unstuck. Much appreciated! After getting unstuck I was able to settle in for an enjoyable kickback with a night of stargazing. Definitely a place to check out so you can check back in..., and; as a bonus, they have ATV & dirt bike rental. The trails, stargazing, people and visiting dogs are a welcomed experience.

2 nights at Splitrock Farm and Retreat

If you Love animals, nature, quiet, stars, beautiful walks, kind staff don't look an further. I had the best time. I'm coming back to stay longer . Maybe even for life. ;) animals were so friendly, people there helped me so much. Please do go.

Splitrock Farm and Retreat

About Splitrock Farm and Retreat Far Away, Close to Home For more information... Visit our website www.splitrock.camp Instagram page @splitrockfarmandretreat. Tag your photos #splitrockfarmandretreat #SplitrockFAR #farawayclosetohome Or, contact the Camp Host through Hipcamp direct message or the direct line 760-645-5431. Splitrock Farm and Retreat started in January 2021 after a global search of a place to set roots, live off the land, and create an amazing place for recreation, relaxation, and rejuvenation. Splitrock Farm Splitrock was part of a 160-acre avocado farm that prospered from 1970 to 2017, generating over 1million pounds of avocados per year until the previous owners switched off the water in 2017. Ben purchased 101 acres in 2021 with plans to harvest the dead avocado trees for firewood and replant with organic, sustainable crops such as grapes, citrus trees, and flowers. Splitrock's attraction comes from its unique groves, magnificent granite boulders, and sweeping vistas. Mixed within the avocado groves are several ancient groves and solitary trees that include 200 foot tall pines, hundreds of old oaks, and soaring palms. Freckled throughout the hillsides are thousands of humongous granite boulders, offering a prehistoric feel to the landscape. Above all, Splitrock offers unrivaled views. Over 40 miles of coastline includes views to Point Loma, the Carlsbad power station, and the Pendleton Hospital. To the northeast are views of near 11K foot snowy peaks of San Jacinto and San Gorgonio, with rolling hills of De Luz and Fallbrook in the foreground.

SoCal Double D Farm

1 site · RV1 acre · Calimesa, CA

OUR STORY Our farm story began in 2018, when on a whim and a prayer we purchased a rundown home and land. After years of acquiring many blisters, animals, plants and weird suntans, we eventually created the home and farm of our dreams. Our emphasis in the beginning of this journey was to create a space in which our children (along with ourselves) learned the value of producing our own food, fiber, meat and eggs. We challenged ourselves to learn sustainable and organic farming practices, and the emphasis soon changed to how can we share this journey and all that we have learned with more than just our children. So…..here we are, sharing our hard work and ambition with you. For now, this ambition is in the form of HomeMade Jams, Jellies, Teas, Seasonings and Confections that is procured from our own organically grown gardens and trees along with HandMade fiber creations from our small Alpaca herd. I would like to be able to say that we grew everything that goes into our ingredients, but we are not that good at everything yet! So to keep in the spirit of ethical sustainability along with ensuring a high quality and great tasting product, we purchase ingredients from local organic farmers and shelf products that not only have the USDA Organic seal, but are non-GMO, ethically harvested and in some cases certified Kosher. One day we hope to meet you and share our story with you by introducing you to the fruit trees my father grew from seed and let you feel the soft fiber of our eclectic herd of misfit Alpacas while you watch the glorious Southern California sunset touch the hot desert horizon we call home. Cheers!

Bailes Farm

5 sites · Lodging60 acres · Fallbrook, CA

One of the last remaining undeveloped parts of Southern California, De Luz Heights is located adjacent to the Cleveland National Forest, and the Santa Margarita River (just a few miles from the campsite). On my 60 acres, there are no major roads going through or next to the property. My land is 13 miles from the Pacific ocean and enjoys a relatively mild yearly climate. Giant boulders provide topographical relief and offer platforms from which to enjoy the view of the nearby Santa Margarita Mountains. The valley views are filled with olive and avocado groves, vineyards, and horse ranches. The Camp Pendleton Marine Corps base is nearby, so you might hear some artillery in the distance on some occasions. The campsite embraces all the comforts of "glamping": a hot shower, composting toilet, beds with sheets provided, gas grill with a stovetop, pots and pans, kitchenware, a sink, picnic table, shaded deck, sofa, lounge chairs, and propane fire pit. The basics are provided: toilet paper, paper towels, purified drinking water, towels, sheets, cooking oil, etc. Campers need to bring their own blankets. I've created a network of hiking trails for especially fit hikers looking for a more rigorous hike than the nearby Santa Margarita River Trail. My trails lead through creek beds, over boulders, through rocky crags, with views of the Pacific ocean on a clear day. Hikers on my trails need to wear proper hiking boots with good traction. Sections of my trails will require bouldering with hands and feet. Expect to have fatigued quadriceps, some scrapes, and a sweaty hat brim. The campsite is accessible with a two-wheel drive vehicle; I drive a Kia Forte out there regularly. However, some tips when driving a two-wheel drive car: when going uphill on a dirt road, try to keep some momentum of about 12-15 MPH. If you stop and try to start again, your tires will spin out. If that happens, just reverse down the hill, and try it again with more momentum.

Also in close proximity to incredible rock climbing at the Pinnacles, seemingly endless hiking and biking and some pretty epic off-roading 4x4 trails. Each campsite is approximately one acre, and generously-distanced from neighboring campers. Amenities include its own fire ring with grilling grate and picnic table(s). The campsites are both cozy enough for 2 or spacious enough for large groups and can easily accommodate a mix of RVs, camper vans and tents. From June to October the 100+ area open meadow is filled with horses grazing and galloping about (please don't pet or feed!) A four-seasons destination, the Ranch has year-round experiences with warm summers and snowy winters. An excellent basecamp, within close proximity to the lake, ski slopes, Pinnacles, hiking/biking and off-roading trails. After a day filled with adventure or ultimate relaxation, be sure to enjoy the breath-taking sunsets over the meadow. The evenings blanket guests with a sea of stars. Toast up some s’mores and warm up some hot-coco over a beautiful, crackling campfire. Remember the s’mores and always follow the “Leave No Trace” principles. There are large trash bins by the entrance. We look forward to hosting you at the Ranch! Please note: OHV’s are allowed. They count as one of the allowed vehicles per campsite and must adhere to the speed limit (10mph) and remain on established camp roads while on the property. They may not be driven from 8pm to 8am. It is strictly forbidden to ride your vehicles through the forest, meadow or off any established roads on or off property. Please research which of the surrounding forestry roads allow for your vehicle type to be driven on. Campsites on the west side of the meadow (F, G & H sites) are partially accessed by a forestry road that does not allow dirt bikes. Horses: The horses which may be roaming the meadow during your stay are not property of Holcomb Valley Ranch. When horses are present, guests and their pets are prohibited from entering the meadow. Please do not approach, interact, feed or touch the horses. This is for your safety and the safety of the horses. Do, however, take lots of photos! They make a perfect backdrop:)

Holloway's Marina stands out as a unique destination in Big Bear Lake, blending rich history with modern amenities. Established in 1914 by Charles Holloway, a passionate nurseryman and fisherman from Corona, this marina began with a simple vision. After hauling boat parts up the old Clark Grade, he was approached by a potential renter even before launching his boat. Recognizing the demand, Charles expanded his vision into a thriving camp featuring 16 cozy cabins, 30 rental boats, a general store, and even a barbershop. In 1971, the property transitioned to new ownership when Marge and Don Hafen, along with Betty and Bruce Turner, purchased it from the Moores, marking the end of a 57-year era. The Hafen/Turner family further enhanced the marina's offerings by acquiring an additional three acres of land, allowing for even more growth and development. Today, Holloway's Marina remains a cornerstone of the Big Bear Lake community, welcoming visitors from around the globe. With its picturesque surroundings, guests can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, including fishing, hiking, and exploring nearby natural features.

Camping in Southern California guide

Overview

The Pacific shoreline, vast deserts, snow-capped mountains—Southern California has it all. Whether you're looking to hike or surf, the state parks, and beaches are a great starting point for your SoCal adventure.

If you want to hear the waves from your tent, stake your claim at a beach campground with epic ocean views. There are tons of state beaches in Santa Barbara and San Diego Counties. One local favorite is Carpinteria State Beach. Windsurfing, fishing, and surfing are a few ways to enjoy this sandy stretch of the ocean shore.

If you're looking for adventure, Joshua Tree National Park may be calling your name. The rocky desert landscape is a hot spot for hiking and rock climbing. For those who want to escape the crowds, there are plenty of remote places to pitch a tent across the Mojave Desert.

For spectacular mountain views, venture into San Bernardino National Forest, just outside of Los Angeles. In this sprawling wilderness, you find tons of cabins and camping spots, especially near Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear Lake.

If you're looking for something just outside Malibu, you can't beat Malibu Creek State Park. The 8,000-acre rocky wilderness hosts 15 miles of hiking trails and a volcanic swimming hole.

While the rugged landscape lends itself to tent camping, Glamping is also a big deal in SoCal. Keep an eye out for decked-out yurts, cabins, and cottages with spectacular views.

Southern California is known for its fair weather year round. That said, it can get chilly in the winter. Remember to bring a jacket (and a wet suit if you plan on surfing). To beat the summer rush, try to plan your camping trip for late spring or early fall.
