Kimberly's campsite was exactly as described. It was spacious, peaceful and perfect for dry camping. We especially loved that we could bring our dogs and the ground was level so we didn't have to sleep at an angle. The tight turn into the spot is not conducive to anyone pulling a long trailer. Sorry! The campsite is nestled in a quiet neighborhood near a lagoon. Seriously, we slept with the windows open and all we heard were the peaceful sounds of nature. Lovely, lovely stay!!

We had an effortless stay at this beautiful property and will probably be back at some point! There is a hiking trail 10 yards from the spot that we enjoyed as well. Great communication from Kimberly, fair price especially for being so close to the coast, and accurate description on the hipcamp page. See you again soon.

This spot was a great respite- so quiet and private! We made Del Mar our central hub as we road tripped around SoCal in a 22 foot van and appreciated a nice place to stay each night. Access instructions were very clear and helpful and we had no issues getting our rig into this spot. I can see how any bigger some might have an issue. We could still get to the beach and amenities within minutes from this spot. Would recommend this spot if you are looking for a quiet retreat in the Del Mar area!!
