Tucked away in the mountains, Idyllwild Regional Park is pure magic. The trails weave through towering pines and massive boulders, with quiet pockets of shade that feel like secret hideouts. Campsites are clean, well-spaced, and you actually get some real peace and quiet without feeling packed in like sardines. Morning walks here are insane — crisp air, birds everywhere, and those slow-burn sunrise colors bleeding through the trees. If you want that old-school California mountain town vibe without the chaos, this place hits different.

We camped there. It is a beautiful campground, very rustic with very unlevel sites. Tents are best, although we did camp with our 22-foot trailer. All sites are a bit tricky with an RV. We were by ourselves because it was in February. This is site 63.

This is a beautiful alpine park with picnic tables and bbqs. Surrounded by nature and easy access to nearby trails. Abundant trees and wildlife, we even saw a couple deer early morning. Is big enough to host multiple families.

Camping over memorial weekend can be quite crowded. But the place is nice with flushed toilets and showers. Beautiful campsites with fire rings for that quintessential camping experience. Lots of trails to explore for different levels of difficulty. Lots of dogs but they are well behaved.

Wonderful place for camping. The rangers were nice, camp sites were cozy and clean, nestled in trees, showers were hot and we were allowed to have fires with good vigilance for height and ensuring that they’re put out before you leave with water buckets by all the bathrooms. There is also a hiking trail system of a group of short 1-3 mile hikes that are quant, low traffic and beautiful views of Jacinto and the surrounding area. Can’t wait to camp here again soon. Very dog friendly place (dogs on leash) and most campers are good about keeping dogs, babies, and music/talking low during quiet hours 10pm-6am.
