Last year, my friend invited us to go camping at Green Valley Campground during a long weekend, and it was a wonderful experience. The campground is well-maintained, and the restrooms were clean. There is a machine where you need to insert bills to get tokens for a hot shower. The kids absolutely loved the camping experience, and they were especially delighted by the sounds of birds at night, which made the stay even more special. Overall, it was a memorable trip. Highly recommended.
Stayed here 10/11-10/13. Short trip but worth it!!! Flush toilets & showers. The showers were kinda gross but I’m sure they do the best they can tryin to keep up behind nasty folks 😔 BEAUTIFUL campground!! We checked out the falls… peaceful & therapeutic. Noticed zero trash which made my heart so happy for the forest!!!Ill I’ll for sure be back!
The camp ground was clean with modern bathrooms and coin showers. Beautiful in June. There was lots of water in the streams and waterfalls. A must see for San Diego. Watch out for poison ivy. Lots of reptiles.
Great place to camp with family. We had site 27 and loved it. It has several tent spots, plenty of wiggle room, and water access adjacent to the campsite. Clean restrooms just a short walk away (maybe a little far for the women, but close enough - normally we don’t like camping right next to the restrooms:). Downsides: the park staff don’t empty the fire pits very often - ours was nearly overflowing with ash. The bathrooms have no soap. The reservation website charges $8 to book a reservation. Extra cars cost extra $10/night. The park staff do not mark off reserved sites- which could cause confusion over weekends when the park is not monitored as often and people just stop by to camp for the night with no reservation. The Sweetwater River falls hike is at the base of the campground. It was a very short and beautiful hike. April 2023 the water was abundant, almost overflowing the banks. Beautiful site! The elevation is just under 4K, high enough to get real cool nights, but low enough to be below the snow line most winter long.
Great campground with good facilities and walking and hiking trails.
