Will definitely be returning for another memorable R & R.

9/7/2026 thru 9/9/2025…read more We come to Dogwood every year because we really Love it here. We do the hiking trail twice a day, grill some meats, take Hot showers before bed and sleep in tents. It is beautiful here, the facilities are clean and most importantly you can take Free HOT showers. This year we planned to stay two nights at Campsite #87. But left early, only staying the one night leaving around 1pm on 9/8/2025. During the night around 1am we heard someone or an animal walking around outside our tent. (We have Never experienced any kind of wild life animal or people walking into our campsite before. This was the first time this happened to us). The steps were light and almost human. The light grunting and chewing on what sounded like twigs or maybe acorns and light heavy breathing is what made us realize it was not human. But we were not sure and all of us were scared to look outside. After staying still and playing dead for two to three hours we finally fell asleep and woke up around 5:30am. And started our day. Went for a hike and came back to our tent / campground. HUGE Black Bear encounter. We got back to our campsite before 10ish, ate, relaxed and were drinking tea. When suddenly out of no where I saw a huge Black Bear just casually strolling into our neighbors campsite walking past their RV camper and headed we towards the garbage dumpsters or towards the Rimforest high school. We Jumped into our car and stayed there until the bear was out of site. Then we met with the Park ranger and let them know that we just saw the Black bear. Park ranger then confirmed that the bear was also here last night. And that that there was a Mountain Lion lurking around as well. So we had to be on high alert and if we see the mountain lion to hide or get in your car. I gave my family members one look and within one second we agreed to pack up and head back home. Although we know bears can be seen whenever you go hiking or camping. We never expected it to actually ever happen to us. So to be safe we had to cut our trip short.

Her positive attitude and organization really stood out and made the camp experience special. The only downside was that it could get pretty loud at times with all of the kids and activities going on, but that's also to be expected at a busy camp environment. Security was able to handle the noise which was great. Overall, Sydney truly made the experience memorable, and we would definitely come back because of her!

Very peaceful and relaxing area of the mountains…read more First time visitors as we are here with a group of 18 family and friends. It is a well kept area, clean and quiet dispute all the critters walking around our tent last night including two hollowing ??? About fifty feet away. This is nature after all. Not a big deal to some but for someone that has not camped in over 30 years, I was wide awake most of the night and now, I need a short nap to recharge. Fully recharged after my nap and I am ready to enjoy the this outing once again. We visited this camp ground with a group of eighteen in all and we had a BLAST! We had camp sites 5, 6, 7 and 8. We all had 6-person tents yet had enough room for twenty-tents as our areas combined were HUGE! We played games, bonfires, ate together, used cots, went hiking, visited a public playground less than one mile away and used a zip line, played volleyball and had a picturesque view of Lake Arrowhead. There is also a hospital w/ emergency services directly in front of our camp ground entrance if such services were ever needed. I can definitely see us returning in the near future but for now, the memories we created will stay with us forever.

Hello, the campground was full this weekend. On Thurs I got…read morea wild hair and checked for reservations and coincidentally I got one night only at the best site #19. Incidentally, when we arrived to check-in, we were greated by a delightful Dennis! He was a wealth of knowledge. He rakes each site before the next person comes. Aside from making it clean for the next person...he picks up all tiny trash and food bits we toss around and dont make it into the fire pit. He cleans all of this up which prevents "visitors" while were sleeping. Yes, visitors. Were in nature but it belongs to squirrels, mice, snakes, bears, coyotes and mountain lions. So we took note and did a full look for any bits we left behind so Dennis could just rake and not worry about out food and trash. He's a great guy and youll hear his cart going around checking on things. He is actually security, housekeeping, front desk, greeter, janitor, grounds keeper, friendly neighbor, game warden for the little camp ground, so be respectful bc he lives where he works. If you hate the thought of snakes and bears, stay some place like a city KOA. This area is lush with trees and full of dry brush...(snakes like the brush!) Also bugs werent an issue whatso ever!....we sprayed ourselves with OFF and were fine. Kept tent zipped up in case of critters. We did not see any snakes or bears. Upon departure we saw a coyote in the morning near the entrance doing his own thing. Upon arrival check in with the Delightful Dennis, your camp host. Follow his directions to a T and youll be fine. I keep a bear bell, air horn and utility knife for protection in my tent. No swimming or showers at camp ground... Swim at Lake Gregory!!!- Arrowhead is a no swim lake.

This is a great campground local to San Diego. About a 40 minute drive. I used to go to the…read moreCuyamaca Campgrounds a lot. This one is located about 5 minutes away. Green Valley has (small - around 3 feet high) falls and cool water to soak in. It is south of the main campground and the public can park there (I think there is a parking fee to get into the campground?) and 10 minute walk down to the falls. Really peaceful, and the amenities (showers/bathrooms) have been greatly improved over the years. It barely feels like 'roughing it'! My onlycomplaint, and it was a BIG one is the flying BUGS were buzzing/bombing me he entire trip! Some people's blood (MINE) is supposed to attract them more than others. Because I noticed other campers were NOT impacted. Bring a skeeter hair net or repellent. I went in September , Space 41. Oh! and wild turkeys came right up to my camp space! Cool.

Only thing to note is the sites are not directly accessible by car, you will need to walk just a few steps off pavement.

Kinda cool that you can review campsites on Yelp, too. Anyway, here's my review of this site I…read morevisited just recently: I initially planned on visiting Table Mountain campground, just 5 minutes away, but that place was packed out the wazoo. Couldn't grab a spot. So I came here as a backup. It was 11pm or so, but my party was able to snag a spot out of 6/8 occupied sites. We grabbed an empty table and some real estate at the top of the hill. The site is used for sledding when the snow comes in for the winter, so the grade is quite noticeable. Cars must be parked at the bottom of the hill, so if you have a lot of things, be prepared for some tiring back-and-forth from the bottom to the top and back again. Since our tents were set at the very top, we had the privilege of getting some extra steps in. Each campsite here is within 50 feet of another. You are within eyesight and earshot of your neighbors - this is a bit of a downside, as I prefer camping in peace and away from other people, to get away from the city. Bring earplugs if you can spare the space. We were granted the opportunity to listen to a large family rev up their trucks throughout the first night. It went on from 11pm-3am. That would have been ideal if my definition of camping was setting up my tent in the middle of a monster truck rally. But alas, it's not. Sites also come with a grill and a fire-ring, very nice for cooking if you wish to do so. I think firewood is sold at a few stores nearby, but you can scavenge for extra around the grounds, too. The two bathrooms at the bottom of hill were a predicament. It wasn't entirely clean (which most camp potties aren't already) but you are galactically screwed if the door gets left open. Flies will swarm the two toilets and make it virtually impossible to do your business. One or two flies won't deter me from popping my squat, but I'm telling you: I instead chose to dig a hole way uphill, park myself behind a tree out of sight, and did my thing out there. It was that bad. The black plague would have been proud. On the topic of bugs: BRING BUG SPRAY. And citronella candles. And keep your tent doors closed at all times. The bugs here go crazy. Seal your foods, especially any sweets, and make sure to keep your cooking materials off the ground to avoid ants. Other than that, there was plentiful shade and the trees are swept by a decent breeze that visits every so often. It made up for the sweltering heat that had been bogging down LA for weeks. When our louder neighbors would leave to hang out at the nearby lake, it was serene and awfully peaceful. Plus, since the campground is situated between two bigger hills, the sun doesn't linger around too much during the day. While it gets the job done, this site is a sub-par escape from the city and serves only as a mediocre, last minute find; my advice would be to reserve a much nicer, cleaner, and quieter campsite months in advance. Do your research, pack smartly, and have fun.

Our family and friends have made so many wonderful memories here. The amenities and grounds are very well maintained. Throughout the years we've seen many changes, improvements and upgrades.

This place is a little oasis, filled with family friendly fun spaces and even adult only relaxation/party zones! The HOLIDAYS and all the seasons!! Omg! SO MUCH FUN! New Years, Easter, Summer, HALLOWEEN, Winter! The ambiance, activities and events are core memory makers for sure. Unfortunately the meadow area was washed out by a winter rain storm (Dec. 2025), but we're excited to see what it will look like once it's back open. Chillaxin in the creek was top tier!

The cabins are spacious and have everything you could ask for--including cookware, dinnerware, a microwave, stove, and full-size refrigerator--which makes packing and meal prep so much easier. My kids absolutely love the splash pad, mini golf, and the family swimming pools. One of my favorite perks is the adults-only pool, where you can unwind with a drink from the full-service bar while the kids enjoy all the family activities. My husband always looks forward to fishing in the trout and catfish ponds, which always seem to be well stocked. The convenience store on the property is another huge plus--it has all the best snacks along with basic groceries, so you never have to leave the resort if you forget something. Overall, Mountain Lakes truly has it all. Whether you're looking to relax, fish, swim, or spend quality time with family, this is the perfect place. We've made so many wonderful memories here and can't wait to come back. Highly recommend!

Our 4th time here, and probably more fun with kids. Our second trip up since both sons were grown,…read morebeautiful surroundings with cabins that are a bit rustic; 2 bunk beds and 1 single (sleeps 5), heater and electrical outlets. You're advised to never turn off your heater because it gets quite cold at night and after lights out, they won't be out to fix it if you can't get it back on again. There is table tennis, archery sign up, crafts, nature talks, s'mores around a campfire, hikes, etc. that are all optional. Saturday night our Ranger even told "ghost" stories, like the time he was patrolling Griffith Park (where he still works), and spotted a lone woman walking the road near Travel Town around 3 AM. Turning around to see if she was alright and pulling next to her; her face was like porcelain and she appeared to be holding something which she was trying to hide. She responded "I'm okay" then walked off toward an extremely thick growth of brush, disappearing before his eyes. He stated that the whole experience gave him "the creeps" and didn't seem real. But our ranger, who shall remain nameless in my review, was also a great guide and leads all 4 hiking excursions. And if you're up to it, if nothing else, do the hike to Heart Rock. Maybe 2-3 miles round trip, but requiring a lot of up-and-down climbing over rocks and roots on the trail. Heads Up: There are wild animals in the vicinity; and yes, bears and bobcats have been sighted. Owls can also be heard late at night. Storing food in your cabin is highly discouraged. And one more note; none of the cabins have locks on their doors. Also more of a rustic, not romantic getaway. Not much romance with only single and bunk beds provided. With thin plastic mattresses that weren't made for comfort. And you supply your own bedding or sleeping bags; don't make the mistake of forgetting your pillow like I did this time. I had to use one of my wife's extra sheets as a makeshift pillow. Not good! I paid for it with less then 2 hours of sleep. I was in a sleeping bag. The road up to and down from Crestline, Hwy 138, is a bit more treacherous then I remembered as well. Check In is from 10 AM - 12 PM Saturday, and Check Out is at 2 PM Sunday. But for 1 night, it's a very full weekend experience, and at $55.00 per person, which includes 4 meals, everything else is inclusive. That is, everything but water. For some strange reason, all camp drinking fountains have been put out of commission. I'm still scratching my head on that one. Yet throughout the entire day, the general store building provides free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate but you have to pay for bottled water. With the exception of free bottles given out this past Sunday while me and Jackie just happened to be playing a game of ping pong. And there is water at each table during mealtimes. A nice getaway though if you don't mind roughing it for 1 night. Camp Seely is owned and operated by the City of Los Angeles.
