With reservations available at $75-$85 per night, The Lodge at Deer Creek provides both drive-in and walk-in access in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. The privately managed campground sits in a low grass pasture near Deer Creek, with sites positioned to take advantage of ocean and rolling hill views. Site 1 features easier access via a low-grade hill entrance, though the exposed location means high winds and muddy conditions can affect accessibility during wet weather.
Located just five minutes from Pacific Coast Highway via a winding road, the campground maintains cell service coverage. Pets are welcome at this elevated site where the mountains meet the coastline.
