It is a great location right in Temecula Wine County. Do know that the campsite is between two houses and next to a detached garage, that being said, we went to Lake Skinner and checked out their campground and my son was happy we camped where we did. It was way more private rather than being next to numerous tents and RVs.

We had a wonderful stay. The campsite was neat and tidy, and complete with a table, chairs, and a fire pit. Thank you, Garth!

We had a great time at Garth's camp site! When we got there, Garth greeted us and was super friendly. We had a great time and will definitely be back when we're back in Temecula!

Open space, views, and clean
So glad we stayed at this camp. Nice views and all 3 spots looked great. It’s close to wine tasting and we even got to ride our bikes through the hills just north on dirt and paved roads. All sites have a table, seats, and a fire ring. Garth is cool, he came around to make sure we were having a good time.
Verizon connection is very weak, so just plan accordingly and enjoy the disconnect. I highly recommend this camp.

Temecula Hidden Gem
We really enjoyed Garth’s place. The property is beautiful and very spacious. While camping, we got a chance to meet Garth and his wife - such sweet people. Thank you again for having us. The campsite had a fire pit, picnic table, and chairs waiting for us upon arrival. There is also potable water available! Another added perk was the trash and recycling! Lastly, the actually camp site was lovely. There are two other sites on their property, with one being closer than the other. The other sites were in use, both days/nights of our stay, and we could barely tell - plenty of space/privacy. Also, you can’t hate the location. We brought bikes and were able to cycle to a few of the wineries! 12/10 recommend. Will be back!

Quick weekend getaway
If you are in Socal, this is a nice getaway. Garth is gracious and met us right away and made sure we can settle comfortably. Choices of wineries around the area is awesome. You feel safe and secured in this area.

Beautiful spot as seen in pictures. Very convenient that they had water and trash close by. It is very close to a bunch of wineries. If you are looking for a hike it would be good to research that before you go because we did not find any that were moderate length or difficulty level. We would come back :)

Family camping w/ pets
Garth was amazing! He was very accommodating, easy to talk to, and always responded within a reasonable amount of time. The campsite was clean and quiet. In the morning you get to see the hot air balloons in wine country over the hills. This was the perfect escape for our family vacation.

It's a very nice site, clean and well kept, Garth was wonderful and very accommodating.
Shadow Hills Wine Country - Pepper
Not private, but great views!
Beautiful views, lots of birds, rabbits and a few harmless lizards to keep me entertained. The morning hot air balloons were spectacular! The hosts were great, it looked like they actually raked the dirt at the site prior to my arrival!
The Cons:
Let me start by saying that I am a Camper. I should have done a bit more homework. I'm used to more of a rustic setting, and more secluded. My site was about 200 feet from the other campers and the hosts home. The hosts have planted some young trees around the perimeter of the site where I was camping, this should help in the future.

Loved this campsite! It was tucked away from the city but still close enough to arrive at a store within 15 mins. We enjoyed the fire pit and were able to see the hot air balloons in the morning. The cell drive is a bit spotty but once you get on the road it comes right back. Thank you so much for sharing your campsite with us.

Middle of Temecula Wine Country
Host was very helpful and communication was prompt. Even came by to say hello. The Pepper spot is the the best in terms of view. Pepper is on the peak of a fairly level hill so if the wind picks up, you feel it. Not a problem if prepared. View makes up for it. When the trees mature it will be an even better spot with shade and a bit more privacy. Shadow Hills -Pine and Olive are two other separate Hipcamp spots on this property but they are on a lower level. No shade or trees but nice in terms of space and fairly level. There are fire pits and picnic benches as well as some nice wood lounge chairs. Although the properties are large there are houses around so keep that in mind. There at least 3 wineries within 10 minutes. Quite a bit more within 20 minutes. Although it’s helpful to be self contained the host is nice enough to provide water, portable toilet, wood and a camp stove if needed. This Hipcamp spot seemed to be the best value for us in this particular area. Other spots offer nothing as well as a fire ban. We were allowed to have a small fire here which is always nice.

We loved our stay! Garth and his wife were very friendly and welcoming. Our campsite overlooked the hills in Temecula and we were surrounded by pepper trees. Would definitely visit again!

Great views and great host!
Garth’s space was very cool. We had a great night in the rolling hills of French valley. Sunset was amazing. Fire pit and picnics table were perfect. We saw hot air balloons In the distance the morning we checked out and it was so magical. The area is More set up for RVs or camper vans mainly because there is no restroom/shower/bathroom. He does provide a Luggable Loo that you can use for the restroom which was nice and thoughtful.
