Malibu Mountain operates as a private campground in the Lake Sherwood area, charging $65 per night for sites with electric and water hookups. The facility provides drinking water and picnic tables across open terrain, though campers should prepare for rough access roads leading to the property.
Sites accommodate RVs with full hookup capabilities, and reservations are available for planning visits. The campground's location offers access to campgrounds around Lake Sherwood for those exploring multiple options in the region. Given the limited review data, prospective campers may want to contact the facility directly to confirm current conditions and availability.
Description
Welcome to Malibu Mountain, 13 acres of natural land at the crest of the Santa Monica Mountains. Bordered on two sides by national parkland, you will find peace and nature in abundance, along with incredible views across the Conejo Valley to the Topa Topa mountains. The Backbone Trail is at the end of the driveway, with the trailheads to Echo Cliffs (rock climbing) and Sandstone Peak just a few minutes drive up the road. PCH is just down the mountain for quick access to Malibu beaches and surf spots. Close to Malibu locales Neptunes Net, Leo Carillo, and Trancas Market.
The campsite is extremely private, surrounded by unspoiled national parkland, and well-insulated from other humans. There is only one campsite on the property. There is a small community of homes nearby, the closest being about 1/8 mile away. The neighbors are all up on the mountain for the same reasons we camp- peace, serenity, nature, open space, fresh air, and starry skies.
Site is available through reservation only, but can be booked last minute. This is not a commercial campground- there is no host on site and no amenities other than 30amp power and water hookups. There is a picnic table at the site. The pad is level gravel/dirt. Access is via a short dirt road, 2wd ok. Perfect for a campervan, but a small class C or small travel trailer are ok too.
