Our home is located in historic 'Trabuco Canyon' in Orange County, CA.  Our cabin 'number 63' was built in 1928 and all the cabins here in the cabin were sold as hunting cabins or used for vacationing.   Live Oak Canyon Road, and Silverado Canyon Road are some of the nicest driving areas in Southern California.  Learn more about this land:Welcome to Cabin 63... or, we like to call her, ‘The Little Red House’. Our little prefab studio is located in a quiet, safe, tucked away rural neighborhood... at the foot of beautiful Saddleback Mountain. Chickens and cats free range among the oak trees and you will often hear the sounds of horses meandering down the road.Our canyon has a real country feel to it and yet you are only minutes away from the city.  We are situated in a hub of hiking and biking trails and,  if desired, we are only 30 minutes from the beach.  In the evening you can often hear the bleating of sheep on the nearby hills and coyotes yipping in the night.

Previously the farm had been let go and now our duty is to get it back in shape. We are making steady progress and fall in love with the land more everyday. Currently we are also planting about an acre of lavender which should be a beautiful backdrop come 2024. Time up here gives you a chance to unwind, unplug, and explore some remaining wildlife in southern California. Come and join us!

About Splitrock Farm and Retreat Far Away, Close to Home 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 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 150+ 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.

It's so nice to "meet you" my name is Taryn and my hubby's name is Anson. We are parents to two-year-old twins, so saying we have our hands full is an understatement. Anson is a folk and blues musician and has traveled all around the U.S. playing his music and I work for a children's book company. One day, we decided that we wanted to live the rest of our lives hosting live music, and events and that's how Rock & Tree began. As the idea grew, we wanted to create an Open Canvas so that the guest could dream up what they wanted on our stage. We moved to the Inland Empire from Santa Monica, in 2017 with the dream of building an open canvas event space out of sustainable, re purposed and natural materials. Our mission is help enrich the culture of Perris, CA by providing a unique venue that takes you away from the hustle and bustle and takes you to a wonderland of nature surrounded by rocks and eucalyptus trees. Anson and I continue to build everything ourselves with the help of our friends and family every now and again. Our process is that we source as much lumber using the dead Eucalyptus trees we have here on the 36 acre property and we are constantly trying to come up with innovative ways to use recycled and donated materials in the venue. During the pandemic, we turned our venue into a campground so we could open up the venue to people who needed to get out into nature. We are now open for daily camping and private events. You can follow our journey on our Instagram.

Weekend Trip to Hidden Waters

This was unexpectedly a wonderful place to stay. Unexpected because we did not think that such a tranquil beautiful place could be found so close to civilization. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the tour that Lacy gave on our arrival. It felt a little bit like a step back in time. Lacey was a gracious host and we enjoyed our interaction with her. Overnight was super dark, quiet, and peaceful. We slept like babies. We highly recommend a stay here. Would recommend having levelers with you if you don’t already have them for the gazebo place where we stayed.

Taryn was absolutely wonderful to work with. She generously allowed us to use her land as a filming location for our short film, and she was nothing but kind, communicative, and accommodating throughout the entire process. She made everything easy and stress-free, which meant so much to our small production team. The property itself was beautiful and exactly what we needed. We’re incredibly grateful for her support and would highly recommend staying here!

The whole farm is huge and beautiful. Can’t miss the observation view deck and take a picture on the rock (front of deck). The goats were friendly, except the white big one lol it was SUPER friendly it follows you when you start petting him. Toilet and showers are spot on clean. Only draw back I can think of is the distance from our spot to the toilet and potable water. It was at least 3-5 minutes walk, so bring your own portable toilet for over nighters. We’ll be back soon!

Weekend Trip to Lakeshore Retreat

We loved car camping with our RTT at Ed's land! We decided to camp on the spacious area above the shoreline but it was nice being able to wake up and take a stroll down to the lake. We were aware of the spot being close to the street but didn't realize how close it ended up being. As avid boondockers, we were surprised by how close the street was to the site; however, the traffic noises ultimately became white noise throughout the weekend. It definitely didn't affect my sleep (and I'm absolutely a light sleeper) and putting on earplugs had me sleeping like a baby. It was especially nice being able to wake up so early and walk out onto the shore with a nice cup of coffee. It's also always nice knowing you're just a few minutes away from the city if you've forgotten anything for camp. I highly recommend this spot to first-timers or just anyone looking to get away from city chaos!

Weekend Trip to Splitrock Farm and Retreat

This is a very fun campsite! Lots and lots of space and the platform is great flat surface for a tent and the easy turf makes it extra nice. There’s also a second flat space included in the site for a second tent setup if you want one. There are loads of goats up on the higher levels so you’ll see them if you walk or drive through the camp. A few things to keep in mind; for the Jurassic site, the bathroom is quite a ways from your site. Fine to hike to or drive to during the day, but if you get up in the middle of the night to go, it may be an issue. Also as great as it was to have a fire pit nestled in to the rocks, the rocks are home to some critters 😅 which we discovered once it got dark and the nocturnal animals start getting active. Totally comes with the territory of camping, but just be aware. All in all a great place; eager to check out some of the other sites. It’s a beautiful little community they’ve got there. Very cool.

We absolutely LOVED our stay here! The campgrounds are wonderful, well set up/ spread out, and super easy to find. We had an amazing time taking in the views, climbing rocks, and exploring the area. Will definitely be coming back again

Weekend Trip to Splitrock Farm and Retreat

We really enjoyed camping at the Hilltop Hideout spot - the views were beautiful and the site feels very private. There’s a water spigot right at the site, along with a firepit, table, chairs, and plenty of space for a larger group (we were just two people and a dog). My wife loved playing with the baby goats, and our dog had a great time checking out all the farm animals. The owner’s dogs were friendly and chill - they stopped by once to say hello. The camp store was also pretty convenient. We did run into a small hiccup at arrival, as another camper was already set up at our site, which meant waiting while things got sorted out and setting up in the dark. The owner came quickly and resolved it, but it was a bit of a scramble for everyone involved. We also had some early-morning 6am noise from kids hanging around our campsite; not the owner’s fault, but clearer communication of quiet hours might help future guests. Overall though, we had a great stay and would recommend it.

Great Hipcamp all around! Although we had come in a little late, it was still super easy to find. We loved the view in the morning and it felt like we were in a secluded area. Very quiet and relaxing location!

2 nights at Hidden Waters

I stayed at Lacy’s place in my sprinter van for two nights that were great. The place is peaceful and quiet. Lacy met me at the security gate when I pulled in taking me to the spot I backed into for my stay. I recommend staying here and when there check out the trail down to the pond for a serene experience.

Weekend Trip to Splitrock Farm and Retreat

Some of the nicer sites were gorgeous. The drive up was a bit intense on a winding cliff road. Make sure you know what site you’re going to. I tired to ask but when I got there the signage was unclear. They made me take down my set up after dark and move to a different site, even though I followed the Oak Grove sign. The host said “sorry you have to move your shit” and left after giving me incorrect directions to the other site. I am a female solo traveling and could not see to set up my tent and everything again in the dark so had to get a motel. When I requested a refund since I didn’t even stay the night the host accused me of messing up another campers trip and purposefully choosing the expensive site. When it was just an accident because their signage was unclear. Hipcamp refunded me but the hosts refused and sent a very rude text in response to my request. I wish I had a better experience, it was beautiful there but unfortunately I wasn’t able to stay and woudnt return without booking the more expensive sites or being able to check the whole camp ground to make sure I’m in the right area.

The best camping in Caspers Wilderness Park, CA guide

Overview

About

Great hiking through the Santa Ana Mountains. Situated in the swanky OC, you might be wondering how "wild" a place that shares county lines with Laguna Beach could possibly be. Well, friends, we think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Mild weather keeps this 8,000-acre protected wilderness preserve pleasant throughout the year, with occasional closures in case of extreme rains. And expect explosions of wildflowers in springtime!

Two major campsites (plus a few other little pockets for camping) provide power and water for your RV hookups. This isn't a spot to camp with pets—they can attract the cougars who make this park their home. The layout of the campsites, especially in the Live Oak campground, makes this OC park ideal for camping with a large group. Equestrian camping is available, too.

Notable campgrounds

Equestrian Camping: Tailored for horse enthusiasts, these sites offer a unique camping experience with corral facilities.
RV Camping: Spacious sites equipped with modern conveniences cater to those seeking a comfortable wilderness retreat.
Family Camping: Ideal for families, these sites offer fire rings and picnic tables, perfect for creating lasting memories.

Tips for snagging a campsite

Book early: Reservations can fill up quickly, especially during peak seasons, so plan ahead and reserve your spot as soon as possible.
Off-peak visits: Consider camping during the weekdays or outside of holiday periods for better availability.
Group sites: If traveling with a larger party, look into reserving a group campsite for added space and amenities.
Explore nearby camping options: If Caspers Wilderness Park is fully booked, investigate surrounding parks for alternative camping opportunities.

When to go

The best time to visit Caspers Wilderness Park is during spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural flora is in full bloom. Summer offers longer days but can be hot, while winter may bring cooler temperatures and occasional closures due to weather.

Know before you go

Check for alerts: Stay informed about park closures or special advisories by checking the park's official website before your visit.
Wildlife awareness: The park is home to diverse wildlife; always maintain a safe distance and store food securely.
Trail preparedness: Bring adequate water, sun protection, and a map when venturing on the park's trails.
No domestic animals: To preserve the park's ecosystem, pets are not permitted within the park boundaries.
Parking fees: Be prepared to pay a day-use parking fee, which varies on weekends and holidays.

Live Oak Grove Campground

Camped here in January 2017, then again in March 2017. It's a lovely campground, full of wildlife and trails. January was quite cold, but the fire and hiking kept us warm. We stayed in #30 which is quite close to the bathroom,water spigot, and trash cans, so it was nice. Big sites with varying spots of shade. Everything was quite dry, even though it rained the first night. When we came back in March we stayed in #32, even closer to the restroom :) Fires still allowed, and it had rained so much that the water was flowing! We had fun walking along it and seeing the little tadpoles. Also a nature center at the top of the hill that's really fun to visit.

This place is pretty, well, wild, so be sure to watch where you step and pay attention to your surroundings (which, as a Hipcamper, we know you already do).

The nearby interpretive center is definitely worth a visit.

Showers can be a little iffy when it comes to temperature, so a little bit of fiddling around may be necessary (and always test out the temp before putting little ones in there).

Best spot? #9, hands down. Super private, and you have your own potable water supply. We hear #10 and #30 are also pretty great.
