Idyllwild Campground — Mount San Jacinto State Park
Reviewed Feb. 20, 2020

Secret Mountain Escape in the middle of SoCal

I love this park. It is beautifully maintained, has showers, lots of manzanita trees, and large boulders to play on. The fire rings and trash cans are emptied regularly. There is a lot of Raccoon activity in town so keep your food secured. If you are up for it, you can visit the Raccoon rescue in town too. Maybe meet a friend like Fred (see picture). 

You are nestled in the middle of the town with easy walking access to shops, restaurants, and the nature center. The nature center is lovely for a smaller mountain town and can give you in depth information in regards to the local flora and fauna. 

The sites are large and flat. Surrounded by sweet smelling pines too, which makes life even sweeter. There is tons to do nearby in addition to the town sites. Tons of hiking trails, scenic views, mountain lakes.
