Cold Creek Homestead

I loved camping here and they were amazing hosts!! We forgot coffee mugs and they brought us coffee mugs from their house. They have friendly dogs and chickens and all sorts of goods down by their house. The site is nothing to write home about, but large and spacious. The no fires rules makes a lot of sense given how dry it is here. The location is awesome, 15 minutes away from lake gregory which is great for trout fishing. (Pro tip use garlic power bait on a carolina rig) The site is about 30 minutes from arrowhead. 10/10 stay loved everything about it and can’t stress enough how kind the hosts were!! Would stay here again anytime.

Awesome location and setting. Sitting at 3000 ft, you can enjoy the cool breeze without dealing with altitude issues, occasional snow. I would have love to stop by when fresh apples and figs were being sold. Close enough to civilization not needing high clearance vehicle but nestled in such a way that you feel you are far away from the rat race. Ill be back!

Great location next to Rim of the World scenic drive to Big Bear Lake. Steep drive to get to camp not too far off the highway. We did fine with our 28ft trailer pulled by a passenger van. Appreciated being able to add on produce/honey from the farm. Would stay again!

Host was very friendly, the views were great, but you are sort of close to the highway. Overall pretty nice

I really appreciate that this wonderful family shared their farm with me. I found the spot to be very special with a beautiful view of the canyon. I can’t remember ever having honey that was so amazing. I wish I bought more.

Okay spot

Group trip ·

Host was nice on the phone. We checked in very late no problem. Never saw the host. One morning the gate was seemingly locked without notice from host. Tried to go talk to host and all phone numbers were going to voicemail and honking near the houses (as written on paper notices on the home) yeilded nothing. We went back to the gate and the lock was actually open but it looked locked. The site is flat hard packed dirt. There are animals nearby (groundhogs, squirrels, etc) we saw a bush get eaten from inside the ground in front of our eyes. You can hear the cars on the nearby road so bring earplugs since cars never stop even at night. It's private if the second campsite is unoccupied otherwise the campsites are pretty close to each other.

Quiet, private and simple

Quiet private property nestled on the mountain side just off the main road. Definitely use GPS to get to the property or your message, and if you do, you’ll have to travel 6 miles up the road to turn around and come back down. We drove a 30 foot motorhome down the dirt road on their property. The Terrain looks difficult but it’s manageable if you take your time. ‘Daniel showed us around the orchard. We had a great time

If you need a quaint place to camp for the night on your way to Crestline or Arrowhead, this spot has a beautiful canyon view. Daniel, our host, was very friendly, responsive, and accommodating and willing to show us around the property. We slept in our rooftop tent and camped out of our car. There are no amenities so just be sure to bring everything you need. :)

Nice little spot

Group trip ·

This place was cool, the people were very nice and helpful. You're nestled in one of 3 campsites which are off the road to the orchard between some steep manzanita filld hills. Very pretty, the campsites seem to be a new addition to their operation and I imagine they will only get better with time. I'd stay again.

Nice parking space at a good price

It's not quite clear from the description but there's basically 4 parking spaces fairly close to each other just down a dirt road next to the highway. We were luckily to be the only campers that night so we had our choice of parking space. You get a pretty nice view of the hills from the spot. We were there in the winter so the orchard looked more like dead trees but I'm sure it's nice in bloom. The property owners have lots of projects going on but they nice enough to let us stretch our legs and wonder around a bit. They have 2 friendly wolf dogs. It would be nice to have a campfire but we got strong winds the night we stayed so it's understandable why there was a fire ban. I would stay here again.

Awesome stay!

We rented an RV and camped at cold creek for a few days. The scenery was great and while it's relatively close to the city (only 15 minutes away from the heart of san bernardino!) It feels just as remote as crestline or running springs. The property was set far off the road which was great for privacy and just getting to enjoy nature. Daniel was very helpful in answering all our questions.

Cold Creek RV-North

Had a wonderful overnight stay at Cold Creek. Daniel was very easy to communicate with. Not much growing right now at the orchard, but looking forward to returning next spring/summer/fall. Excited to see how they will expand the property in the future. Can get windy, but our site was the most protected. Great home base for exploring other areas like Crestline, Lake Arrowhead, Running Springs, and Big Bear. Mikaela, who lives on the property, was very friendly and helpful. The two resident dogs were also very sweet. My son loved feeding them walnuts. Will be back.

Not very accommodating

This RV site does not have any hook ups and is basically a space to land your RV on . If you are looking for more accommodations that is not the place to go .

Very private. Mikaela was fabulous. She took time out of her day to give us a tour of farm and since it was fall, we were encouraged to sample the ripe fruit.
