This 150 acre slice of heaven contains an isolated private ephemeral stream that has run the last two years from January to July. Located down a narrow bumpy dirt road off of Highway 94 Dutchman Canyon is at 1300 feet above sea level, The temperature in Dulzura remains nice year round. There are many Oaks, Sycamores, Eucylptus, Pepper and Pine Trees on the property. The fire road has been cleared to the top of the grade and a slight ocean view is available down the Otay Valley Road view line for hikers or mountain bike enthusiasts. A hiking trail has also been cleared to a stand of Eucylptus trees on the hillside with a pond area at their base on the west facing slope. The Dulzura winery is located across the valley and we are only 1/8 mile from the General Store of Dulzura. The Tecate Border crossing to Mexico is 10 miles south of the property. Located a few miles west of Deer Valley we have deer in the canyon year round looking for fresh water from the ephemeral stream. A 19th century concrete cistern holds water year round at one location in the stream bed. Please do not burn the dead oak firewood from the property.

North Creek Corral Camp With Tents
Absolutely beautiful spot to camp. We rented the 3 spots in the very back and we had total privacy. Philip was a great host and was super responsive while planning, and available and super friendly once we got there. The road to the camping spots you gotta take slow if you’re 2WD, but doable. We got a Prius back there.

Overall enjoyed
Overall great experience must bring own fire wood had lots of fun only down side is the bath room is very open wish he’d put up simple curtains. Other than that camp site was perfect and fun there’s also a store on site didn’t go but through it was cool would check out the mini mart down the road after you leave super cool

My husband and I stayed at this campground with a group of friends, and we had an amazing experience! The sites were well-maintained, spacious, and provided just the right balance of privacy and accessibility. Phillip was very friendly and helpful, always ready to answer any questions or gave us tips about nearby trails and activities. The facilities were clean and conveniently located, making our stay even more comfortable. We loved gathering around the campfire each night and truly appreciated the peaceful atmosphere. Perfect place for a relaxing getaway with friends. We will definitely be back!

Secluded space with plenty of hiking trails to explore. The composted toilet was a bonus. Philip met us at the entrance and directed right to our spot. Great host experience!
