Customer Reviews
8 bucks but only 4 for us seniors with the "America The Beautiful" interagency card.
Love this campground during the fall and spring. Rarely crowded, price is perfect (if not a too perfect), and beautiful. There are some campers that come thru that aren't very respectful (very loud music and partying), but for the most part, it's a rarity.
If your trying to get away and enjoy a peaceful and quiet experience this is the place for you.if your looking to enjoy gossip and music and having a good loud time I'd look else where. Dog friendly. Bathrooms were pretty decent, everything else was Clean and extremely peaceful for a childless weekend.
Pinyon Flat Campground located in The Santa Rosa and San Jacinto National Monument is a great location to spend some time visiting or camping surrounded by a very scenic environment and to get away from it all! The campground has individual parking for 1 or 2 vehicles each with its own wooden table and bench and fire pit. There is potable "drinking" water faucets and pit toilets as well. Pack in what you need in your car,RV,motorcycle or trailer because there no stores for about 30 minutes each way. The best part is that you are surrounded by pinyon trees,mountains and calm! Located off of I-10 on the way to Palm Springs,California.At Beaumont take Rte 79 South to Hemet and go east on Rte 74 to Pinyon Flats. From Banning take Rte 243 to Rte to Route 74 to Pinyon Flats Campground. . . . . #pinyonflatcampground #ilovethedesert #ilovecamping #photoops #takesomepictures #route74 #route243 #banning #beaumont #hemet #palmstopines #socaldrives #waynesalvatti #greatdrives #socaladventures #huellhowser #palmdesert #palmsprings #getoutthere #pittoilets #waterspigots #camping #visitthedesert #jthavn #route10 #morongo #familyadventures #quietplaces #bringyourcamera #IG
We loved it, bathrooms were clean, campsites were clean, included a moderen stone bench/table a raised fire pit including adjustable grill, decent amount of privacy between sites. Plenty of water spikets and trash cans. Its all a dirt road so a little rough on the shocks, also not alot of shade as there are not many tall trees in this area. Still beautiful veiws nestled deep in the Santa Rosa mountains. Looks amazing at sunset.
