For more than a decade, John and Kim looked for a place within Temecula Wine Country that could be their forever home. When they saw this lush, hilltop property with they knew it was right. But what to do with the separate lower area, bordered by a seasonal stream lined by cottonwoods and big leaf maples? Cottonwood Creek Camp was the answer. Located in the heart of Temecula Valley Wine Country, you'll be minutes away from 50 wineries. Situated down a quiet rural lane, and secluded by lush California pepper trees, your glamping spot is an ideal getaway for wine lovers who prefer to get away from the city hustle. The camp area has seven spots that can be occupied by other glampers, and has a common use firepit with Adirondack chairs for those who want to compare notes about their wine tasting adventures. Plenty of onsite parking. In the morning, grab your coffee and step outside to watch the hot air balloons drift overhead. During the day, sample local vino from the 50 nearby wineries. In the evening, nosh at one of the great restaurants in Old Town Temecula, and then return to camp for sunset views and fireside relaxation. You should know that there are two free-roaming Blue Heelers who live on the 5-acre property and make regular visits to the camp area. Visiting dogs that socialize well with other dogs are welcome by us and by Molly and Taz as well, but please be honest with yourself and us about your dog's temperament, and book elsewhere if there is ANY chance of canine conflict with our very energetic pups. Also, Molly does not trust very small children (we think there was an incident), so if you have small children, we ask that you keep them from interacting with our Heelers.

Wine Country Glamping
Stayed here for 2 weeks in a 42’ 5th wheel while visiting our son and really enjoyed our stay. John and Kim were helpful, accommodating and overall great hosts. The RV sites are good size and the full hookups are a plus, however, maneuvering a large 5th wheel and getting backed into the sites is a bit challenging due to the limited area available but John was very helpful spotting for me. Other than the Blue Heelers mentioned in the Hip Camp description and that we only met once, we did have two other dogs hang around camp but were no problem for us or cause any issues. John’s land is close to and just a short drive to many great wineries that we enjoyed as well. Overall a great stay that I would recommend to everyone. Looking forward to our next trip to Temecula and another stay at Cottonwood Creek. Thanks John and Kim!

Hidden Gem in Temecula Wine Country
This great little nook in the heart of wine country delivers as promised! John has a charming setup on about an acre of land, nestled in a small vale between two hills, right in the heart of Temecula Wine Country. The fall colors during our stay were stunning and added to the peaceful ambiance. The campsite is well thought out: the spots are level, the hookups worked perfectly, and the WiFi was surprisingly solid at about 12 Mbps (though I mainly used my Starlink, which had enough open sky for a strong connection). On Friday, I enjoyed a scenic hike at Wilderness Gardens County Park, just 30 minutes away through the Pala reservation. On Saturday, my wife and I had a delightful time wine tasting at local vineyards, a highlight of the trip. One thing to note for first-time visitors: the turn into John’s site off Calle Nopal is easy to miss. The sign is small and partially hidden behind a fence post, so drive carefully and keep an eye out. John is an exceptional host who went above and beyond when I needed help maneuvering my trailer after accidentally pulling into a neighboring property. His kindness and assistance made our stay stress-free. This is a fantastic spot for a quick getaway, and we’ll definitely return for more wine country adventures and relaxation. Highly recommend!
