ScoutHas a security guard that thought she was God or something like that. Never seen anybody or place so petty on the place and still searching for the championship horseshoe pits and I can't stop talking about the dark green of the fishing lakes and the fish swimming on their sides
ScoutIt was a nice place and the people were nice. I checked with the staff on day one if their water was potable. They confirmed everything is potable. My dog had explosive diarrhea day 1 and by the time I got home I had fever and diarrhea. It’s been a rough ride ever since. My dog and I did not share food. We only used the tap as a water source. My husband ate all of our food any only drank store bought drinks. No water. He’s fine. Just me and the dog riding it out. Don’t learn my lesson the hard way. Bring your own water and enjoy it.
GuideSome of the campground seems very nice and some is the exact opposite. Pool is very nice and HUGE. But, there are entire sections of this campground that have just faded into non-existent. The bathrooms aren’t great. There are a lot of stationary campers(or what looks to be…) which isn’t really our favorite site to see. But, it was included with our membership and we aren’t going to leave to go pay for somewhere else.
GuideNice KOA for an overnight stop. The campground is clean, quiet, and well maintained, and the dog park was excellent—our dogs really enjoyed stretching their legs after a long drive. The only issue was the pull-through full-hookup site. The sewer connection was on the wrong (driver's) side and located near the front of the truck, so our standard sewer hose wouldn't reach. We needed about a 30-foot sewer hose to make the connection. Overall, we'd definitely stay here again. Just be prepared if you plan to use the sewer hookup in a pull-through site.
TravelerBeautiful, well maintenance, great experience. So clean.
GuideI came through for an overnight on my trip down from SEKI and ultimately toward the southeastern USA. The drive in was not the most enjoyable, bumpy with 15mph hairpins, but the campground was quiet, and the showers we're VERY clean and hot... (They are push button, but you can keep pushing the button every 8 seconds (it lasts only 10 if you don't). The cleanliness of this place alone would leave it on my list of potential return stops.
TravelerWhen I booked at the reservation site I screenshot that water and 30 amp power was available at my site. There is NO water hook up. Overall it’s good 7 out of 10. Lots to do within 2 hours of this place. Staying for 6 days.
TravelerCute and nice spot has all amenities has playground pool fishing spot quiet clean and staff are friendly
GuideMy husband and I were just passing through, and I personally wouldn't stay there again. It was very dusty and depressing. There was a dog that had been dumped there, and I could see that the staff had been taking care of it, seemed like good people making the best of a bad area.
Dispersed camping around Hesperia offers options ranging from rustic tent sites at 3,400 feet elevation to full hookup RV parks with mountain views. The San Bernardino National Forest surrounds the high desert community, creating varied camping microclimates where temperatures can drop 30 degrees from day to night in spring and fall. Winter camping requires preparation for below-freezing nights while summer daytime temperatures regularly exceed 90°F.
Trail hiking: Easy access from North Shore Campground, where one camper noted, "This area is so beautiful, quiet… good retreat from stress in life. Get back in touch with nature. Close to Gregory Lake Park, like 20 mins drive." The surrounding area features well-maintained walking paths with minimal elevation gain.
Hot springs soaking: Pack towels when visiting Deep Creek Hot Springs Campground, located 15 miles from Hesperia. "The hike to the springs is pretty rough but also worth it when you get there," reports one visitor. Visitors should prepare for a challenging 2-mile trail with 900 feet of elevation change to access the springs.
Mountain biking: Rent equipment at local shops or bring your own to explore the trails near Keller Peak Yellow Post Campsites. "There are tons of climbing spots. The Children's forest and Keller peak fire lookout are at the top giving you great info and great views," according to one reviewer. The Exploration Trail winds through the forest offering both technical sections and scenic viewpoints.
Scenic water views: The lake access at Lighthouse Trailer Resort provides immediate water recreation options. "Very close to walking and biking trails," notes one camper. The property includes paddleboard and kayak rentals with hourly rates ranging from $25-45 depending on equipment type.
Quiet forest settings: Many campers appreciate the solitude at more remote sites. "The sites are well spaced, good tree cover. Very nice patch of land. Quiet," writes a North Shore Campground visitor. Most forested sites around Hesperia maintain at least 50 feet between camping spots, with designated fire rings and picnic tables.
Clean facilities: Campground maintenance makes a difference to visitors. "We camped here the last weekend before they closed for the winter, after Thanksgiving. The campground was clean, quiet, and had a decent amount of space between sites," explains one Serrano camper. Shower facilities typically operate from 7am to 9pm at established campgrounds with hookups.
Fire restrictions: Always check current regulations before your trip, especially during summer months. At Keller Peak, "Rangers do come by and take down information of the leader of the group. They are very strict on parties are not allowed. NO FIRES. They have had issues with drug use and parties so that's why they are strict."
Weather variability: Pack layers regardless of season. Temperature swings of 30+ degrees between day and night are common. "Went in January with snowfall, hardly any campers and nature all around! Two nights are perfect," reports a Deep Creek camper.
Off-season access: Many campgrounds near Hesperia operate seasonally. "This is a state run campground. Plenty of loops. All under trees (as far as we could see). We managed to find a spot but they do take reservations and that's your best bet," notes a camper about Serrano, which typically closes from late November to mid-March.
Bathroom accessibility: Choose sites with appropriate facilities when camping with children. "We were right by the restrooms, which was nice. Clean flush toilets and showers. Fire pit and picnic tables are at each site," reports a Serrano camper. Most family-friendly campgrounds offer restrooms within 200-300 feet of campsites.
Safety considerations: Be aware of terrain challenges with younger children. At Bonita Ranch Campground, one visitor noted: "The creek running behind the camp is great to explore, and a waterfall is a short hike away. We also lucked out finding berries in August." Parents should supervise children near water features.
Recreation options: Look for campgrounds with built-in activities. "Very nice campground. Flush toilets, clean restrooms, well stocked. Didn't use the showers. Good location. Close to Big Bear Lake. Access to Cougar Crest Trail is super easy and safely cross under the road via tunnel," writes a Serrano visitor.
Site selection: Research individual site dimensions before booking. At Mojave River Forks Regional Park, "There is water and electricity hookups, along with a dump station and separate tent camp spaces." Most RV sites in the area accommodate rigs up to 35 feet, though some premium spots can fit larger vehicles.
Utility planning: Check for full hookup availability as many sites offer only partial connections. "This is a nice site with lots of shade. There is water, flush toilets, fire pits, and picnic tables. It is a short walk to Lake Arrowhead," notes a camper at North Shore Campground.
Off-season weather preparation: Winter camping requires extra planning. "It was incredibly windy when we went in April 2021. In addition to the wind, it was very chilly in the evenings and through the night. Plan accordingly," advises a Mojave River Forks visitor. RVers should bring fresh water tank additives during freezing weather to prevent system damage.
