Campground

We love coming up to Idyllwild! We have come in July when the grounds are packed, and in November when it's 50% full. Wood burning Fires and charcoal grills have been banned this year both times we came, so we brought propane cooktops and a propane fire pit to hang out by at night. The sites are a bit small and often on hills or inclines...fine for tent camping, but few spots are big enough for our truck camper. Very few if any are big enough for a trailer or 5th wheel. Every site does have a metal picnic table you can move around, and a wood firepit with fold over grill top (for when you are allowed to burn wood fires). What we love is how this campground is so close to the cute little Idylwild town (like 1.5 miles), there's pine trees that make you feel like you're in NorCal yet you're only a couple hours from San Diego or LA, there's squirrels, wood peckers, and wildlife abundance, and there hiking trailheads inside the campground. The bathrooms are clean, and the showers are hot. The rangers are really helpful and friendly as well. There's also a volleyball court at the day use area. The dump station and water fill up station are also well maintained, easy access and functional.

Camp ground was nice and peaceful... restrooms were clean. Lots of Flies and Nats, be sure to bring the Deep Woods Off spray... it really helped

Labor Day weekend was loud. Multiple sites had music that you could hear from both the other side of the the campground and from the hiking trails in the mountains. Multiple sites were ignoring the fire restrictions too.

We love it here very quiet and clean...I have been coming here for a long time 🥰🥰🤩🤩

Bottom loop not recommended. Right next to houses/mobile homes. Ended up listening to somebody watch an entire football game, and their radio blasting. Car alarm going off at 2am. Other than that, campground was littered with trash, couldn’t have a campfire unless it was gas.
