Best in California: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

Private 35 acre Private Land Restoration Project surrounded by rolling hills, mountain views and open sky. Unlike most campgrounds, our sites are spread far apart to give all visitors a private experience in Nature. The sunsets and sunrises are spectacular year round. Stars and open skies that you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else in southern California. Just 15 minutes from Temecula wineries, 40 minutes from the alpine, artsy town of Idyllwild in the San Jacinto Mountains, and just 15 minutes from the 215 in Menifee toward Hemet. Best to visit from early autumn to lush springtime where we have great wildflower blooms. Cooperative managers Jim and Dawn host visitors who want to enjoy nature, participate in regenerative gardening all while off-setting their travel footprint. Fees go to our not for profit land restoration which includes planting trees, improving aquifers and enriching the soil. The property is a owned by a restorative co-op (turning a former illegal dump into an oasis of hope) where we invite you to participate in creative local solutions to our larger global problems. * If your group is larger than six adults, pease visit our group listings page. If your group needs special privacy and sound requirements and you'd like to reserve the entirer property, you will need to contact us directly. * Spaces are available on a first come, first serve basis. * Our visitor support pricing is $20 for the first person and $15 for all additional adults. Kids 6 - 12 are $10 per night. We don't want to charge for kids 6 and under, so do not include them in your booking. Thanks! * Campfire rings are only in common clearing, designated and permitted areas. Please check for seasonal fire restrictions.

Beautiful property, so much more to learn about. I was there visiting a friend who was camping and it was a very cool camp spot, I would definitely book with this very accommodating host. Thank you

Trial member camp @ EcoShire Co-op.

What a great campground!

This is the camping site of all camping sites in in my view. Fantastic people running the grounds that lead with kindness and sincerity. I’m recently retired, and I’m looking to to become a member of Eco-Shire. I definitely recommend to anyone who camps or who’s new camping to check this place out.

Palo Verde: Group Tent Site

Peaceful, Clean, and Easy

our family had planned a Sunrise hot air balloon ride which meant a very early morning. We decided it would be best to camp close to the launch site so we didn't have to get up at 2:00 am in order to be there in time. Down-To-Earth Ecoshire was our choice and with absolutely no regrets. It's a quaint remote location away from the busy life of the city. The stars are incredible!! The campsites were large, clean sites. Some, more exposed while others were more intimate. Many of the campsites have shade canopies - a definite bonus. Composting toilets are situated throughout the property and are well-kept. Jim the host is very friendly and will greet you upon arrival. He is very accommodating and is doing great things with this land. I highly recommend anyone considering booking this place, that you do it. We will be back!

Perfect Little Getaway

My trip at EcoShire was quick but much needed. This camp was clean, simple, and beautiful. My dog and I stayed here for one night and it was exactly what I was looking for. I felt safe and taken care of, as Jim came to introduce himself upon my arrival. There are plenty of restrooms, how showers if you need it, and fire pits. I circled the property in the morning to look around and found a fun living area, games, and animals! I would definitely recommend this site, and hope to return one day :)

Grotto: Group site with Airstream

We had an amazing stay at this Hipcamp! We brought a bunch of kids, and it was the perfect place for them to explore and have fun. The property felt incredibly safe and welcoming, and the host was beyond friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. There were so many activities to keep the kids entertained—everyone loved exploring the fairy garden, playing with the chickens and goats, and the pool was a big hit with everyone on those hot days! It was such a peaceful and beautiful spot, and we felt right at home. Highly recommend for families looking for a fun, relaxing getaway!
