Best Cabin Camping near Castaic, CA

Several furnished cabin options are available within an hour's drive of Castaic, California, ranging from basic rustic structures to fully-equipped units with modern amenities. Ventura Ranch KOA offers cabin rentals with electricity, comfortable beds, and climate control systems. According to visitor Manya, "This KOA easily occupies kids and has teepee and cabin rentals available for glampers, but nice showers, clean bathrooms and a roomy pool area really make this campground 5 stars." The Tiny Tiki Retro Hideaway provides a unique private cabin experience with drinking water, showers, and toilets. At Millard Trail Campground, simple cabins are positioned along the outskirts of the grounds near a scenic creek, though these lack running water and offer more basic accommodations.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location and price point. Crystal Lake Recreation Area features tent cabins that can be reserved by contacting the on-site store staff, with most available from April through December. LA RV Resort at Acton Camp includes pet-friendly cabin options with access to showers and toilets, making it suitable for those traveling with animals. Art Farm Nature Space offers what reviewers describe as "gleaming cottages" alongside other accommodation types, with access to drinking water and shower facilities.

Most cabin rentals include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, pillows, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations, with some offering only outdoor fire pits while others include mini-refrigerators and microwaves. Thousand Trails Soledad Canyon provides cabin accommodations with access to heated bathrooms, showers, and a pool, though visitors note that maintenance can be inconsistent. Valencia Travel Village cabins offer reliable WiFi and laundry facilities that accept credit cards, convenient for longer stays. Visitors should check with specific campgrounds about what cooking equipment is provided, as many require guests to bring their own cookware, dishes, and utensils even when basic kitchen facilities are available.

    Millard Trail Campground

    Great campground for hiking/biking

    Cool drive to get to the campground. You drive up and down these hilly roads up the mountain to get there. Once there, there's a parking lot that fits about 20 cars. There's about 100 yd hike to the campsites. There's a road that leads to the campsite but it's been blocked off. Only the campsite managers use that road so it's not accessible by RV, just tents. A campsite manager stays in a little trailer overnight so if there's any problems there's somebody there you can go to and ask for help. There's about six campsites and their first come first serve, no reservations. I went during the week and was the only one camping. This place is heavily used for day camping and hiking. There's not a lot of privacy because there's always lots of people passing by who are hiking and biking. You can stay overnight which I did and everything was fine but there's not a lot of privacy. The next day as I was leaving there was another guy sitting up his tent. I bet on the weekends they can fill up pretty fast. It's in Bear country so they provide food storage for each campsite also trash containers too. Each side has a picnic bench and a fire pit. The fire ban has been lifted so you can have a fire. Each fire pit had wood left at it so you didn't have to go searching for campfirewood. Bathrooms included male and female toilets but no showers or water. There's a creek that runs through the campground which makes it very pretty. I saw two to three cabins along the outskirts of the campground that I assume were for rentals. There was one family at one of the cabins the night I stayed. About a 20 minute hike and you can end up at a waterfall which is very pretty. But there are several trails to take for hiking and biking and I saw lots of people doing that. Overall a good campsite four stars. Would have been five stars if they had showers and running water. I didn't see any bears although there was an animal outside my tent at one point in the night I could hear him nosing around. So it's important to keep all of your food and anything with any kind of smell in the bear boxes

Sewer, water, 30&50amp, picnic table and fire ring included. House bathrooms available. And alot of family activity amenities. However all amenities were closed unbeknownst to us until after set up.

    Ventura Ranch KOA

    Fun place for young kids!

    We recently stayed here, for the 1st time, last week. We decided to leave the travel trailer at home, and change it up! We stayed the 1st in a large teepee. It had beds for a total of six people. It was hot in the daytime, and got really cold at night, so we switched to a Glamping tent. The Glamping tent was nice! It had a very confortable queen bed, 2 lamps, a fan, a heater, a mini fridge and a microwave. It also had a futon type couch that made into a bed. Loved the Glamping tent.

    Only downfall was, that the place does not enforce it quiet time rules. 10pm to 8 am. Late night loud groups, carrying on until 2 in the morning, loud obnoxious kids screaming at 6:15 in the morning...😩they have many beautiful Peafowl, and they can be loud too, but I only heard them once. The place has very nice tiled showers, with good water pressure, clean bathrooms, a big beautiful pool, but it was closed for the season.

    There are fire pits throughout the 76 acre park, it was nice having a campfire, since so many places don’t allow them anymore...they have a very large jumping pillow for kiddos, my 6 year had a blast playing on it. They also have a zip line, but it was damaged in the large fire last year, and is being fixed currently. There is a stream that runs thru the property, it was fun to explore. They have a rock climbing wall, that is brought out on holiday weekends.

    Lots of fun activities for kids, like crafts, making your own rocket to launch, etc. It is not the place to come, if you want a quiet, mellow place to read a book! It is busy, and loud. They do not have any laundry facilities, nor do they have a little store. The prices on everything are going up 10% on everything, next year. This means that most campsites with full hook-ups with be $ 71 a night, ( not bad ) but the large teepees will cost about $ 200 a night, and the Glamping tents, about $ 180 a night.

    You can buy a KOA discount card, for just $ 30 bucks, and it gets you 10% off, each stay for a year. Valid at all KOAs in America, and some in Australia! We had a good time, and plan to go back in the summer next year. Hopefully, with our travel trailer, it will be less loud 😉

    Camp Comfort Park

    Great Stay!

    At first, we thought it was a tad pricey but after you realize what all you’re paying for ya wonderful!

    We had an RV, two cars. and a tent and they allowed us to use one spot, for $30 a night! Which is pretty rare!

    SUPER fast wifi(if that’s your thing, we were here for a little under two weeks, so it was nice!), electric hookups, picnic table and fire pit! AMAZING bathrooms and coin showers as well as coin laundry!

    The ADORABLE town of Ojai is a quick 5 min drive up the road with anything you could ever want! The camp host is an amazing older guy, who’s incredibly friendly and takes pride in this campground!

    They lock the gates at night (you can still get in and out!) so you feel safe, they allow pets, and even though it’s buy a road you don’t hear any noise at night!

    Perk (or maybe not a perk if you’re not into it), it’s one of the most haunted campgrounds in the US!

    Thousand Trails Soledad Canyon

    A "resort"? No. A campground? Yes.

    Very large park for RV, cabin and tent camping. As it's listed as a "resort", we figured it would be pretty upscale. Disappointment upon our arrival. Floods have been in the area and much of the sites were closed and being cleaned?? The road closest to our site was washed away (from earlier reviews it's been months), so a long jog or drive around the perimeter to get us to the pool, laundry and hot tub…speaking of which, the pool, hot tub and laundry facilities all needed attention. You could actually see people's footprints (bottom of pool and on pool and hot tub entry steps)…that much sand, dirt, etc…I didn't venture in. When we arrived, we started driving around to find the best site for our rig. We're a 32ft class A w/20ft enclosed cargo trailer tow. So, all in all about 55ft. Well, that wasn't easy. Most of the park's electric and some sewer connections didn't exist or were "down" for repair. We have yet to actually SEE someone working on these issues. We are currently here and checked in for a two-week stay. After some boon docking prior to our arrival, we wanted all the bells and whistles the park boasted they had. Took us just over THREE HOURS to find a decent spot. Many levels to this park and most didn't have a decent WiFi (we have our own router) signal. Some sites had dumpsters blocking them from being a true "pull-thru". That left us with about two areas to choose from. It's dusty, dirty, and, really, not ready to be called a "resort"….more rustic than we'd been looking for or what website photos showed. We would not recommend this "resort" to anyone. Several folks with dogs they let simply sit outside and bark, poo, etc….strict rules against that, in most all resorts we've ever visited. Unless you plan on tenting, cabin or what have you, it's not worth it. Very disappointing! :(

    Ventura Beach RV Resort

    Ocean view!

    Beautiful place. Pool, hot tub, laundry, people friendly, picnic tables, fire rings and green grass every paved site. Buttt...266.00 2 nights! Sprinklers go on at midnight and spray all over the RV 2025 just had detailed and arrived late so we had things on the picnic table. Have to wear wristbands. Hwy loud. And understandable that the beaches are gone from past storms flooding and fires. Overall it's a Beautiful place if you have money to throw away but have a safe locked down clean Beautifully maintained Park. You can't even use the grass next to the site lol We will be back hoping my hometown beaches will be getting back to pretty again. And blessed we have the money.

    Ventura Ranch KOA

    Nice Getaway!

    Quiet and nice 2-day stay. Alexi from reception was super nice and courteous. We couldn’t be more grateful to her! Our lot was secluded, private and close to the entrance/exit. The only thing was the unlevel ground we were on. Our RV was a simple 30’ rental without any leveling. Many peacock’s roam around the premises and they can be very intrusive! Playgrounds, zip lining and a massive bounce pad were all on site. Make sure you hike down to the creek!


Guide to Castaic

Cabin camping near Castaic, California offers options for visitors across three different mountain ranges within a 50-mile radius. Winter temperatures at higher elevations can drop below freezing while summer highs regularly exceed 90°F, creating distinct camping seasons. Most cabins in the area require advanced booking through recreation.gov or individual property websites rather than allowing on-site registration.

What to do

Hiking with peacocks: At Ventura Ranch KOA, peacocks roam freely throughout the grounds. "There's a stream that runs thru the property, it was fun to explore. They have a rock climbing wall, that is brought out on holiday weekends," notes Christina S.

Trail exploration: Crystal Lake Recreation Area provides access to numerous hiking paths with various difficulty levels. "This is probably our favorite place to go considering we end up hear almost every other weekend year around... Bring your dirt bike and hit some of the trails, it's a definite must!" writes Salem L.

Waterfall visits: Millard Trail Campground features a short trail to a seasonal waterfall. "About a 20 minute hike and you can end up at a waterfall which is very pretty. But there are several trails to take for hiking and biking and I saw lots of people doing that," explains a reviewer.

What campers like

Private retreats: TINY TIKI RETRO HIDEAWAY offers a secluded cabin experience with minimal neighbor interaction. "Amazing spot and stunning views," reports Andrea D., highlighting the privacy factor that distinguishes this property from busier campgrounds.

Family activities: The recreational amenities at Ventura Ranch KOA appeal to families seeking structured activities. "They have a very large jumping pillow for kiddos, my 6 year had a blast playing on it. They also have a zip line, but it was damaged in the large fire last year, and is being fixed currently," Christina S. mentions.

Mountain views: Art Farm Nature Space provides panoramic vistas from elevated cabin locations. "Their western Bar is the nicest looking bar anywhere and there is tons of fun activities including hiking with goats, volleyball etc etc. This spot has some amazing view areas to hike to," according to Tony O.

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Most cabin rentals near Castaic must be booked weeks or months in advance, especially during peak seasons from May through September.

Wildlife encounters: Millard Trail Campground cabins position visitors alongside local wildlife. "It's in Bear country so they provide food storage for each campsite also trash containers too. I didn't see any bears although there was an animal outside my tent at one point in the night I could hear him nosing around," a visitor cautions.

Noise considerations: Several campgrounds experience noise from roads, trains, or day visitors. "There will be a constant stream of hikers walking by, but for the most part they aren't loud or obnoxious. At night they lock the gates so its really only you, other campers, and the camp host," Mathew H. explains about Millard Trail Campground.

Tips for camping with families

Entertainment options: Ventura Ranch KOA offers structured activities specifically for children. "This KOA site was great. Lots of trails and activities for both kids and adults. They have two nice pools one for adults and one for families," Jessica R. describes.

Safety precautions: Crystal Lake Rec Area Campground requires extra attention to site cleanliness. "Lots of broken glass littered all over the site (we were a little worried for our dog's paws). Pit toilet was out of TP, make sure you have your own in case," Forest G. warns.

Weather preparation: Mountain cabin locations experience temperature fluctuations throughout the day. "It was nice and cool a good break from the heat. There are a lot of sites here for camping unfortunately they are not all open for use," Robert A. notes about Crystal Lake.

Tips from RVers

Parking logistics: Valencia Travel Village offers specific accommodations for those with RVs who prefer cabin camping. "Plenty of spots around the grounds with 30 and 50 amp hook ups. WiFi is included with 3 pools and a hot tube, small store, and a really nice laundry facility," Bradley F. explains.

Wi-Fi connectivity: Thousand Trails Soledad Canyon provides internet access for an additional fee. "There was WiFi for a fee which couldn't be shared with multiple devices. Overall much better stay than my previous visit," Keisha D. mentions, highlighting technology limitations.

Seasonal considerations: Cabin rentals often close during winter months at higher elevations. "Pretty large TT resort with recently remolded lodge in 2019. Great place to stay if you are a TT member road to resort is windy and narrow but easily manageable with larger RVs," Tyler V. notes about Soledad Canyon.
