Villa Macala

Villa Macala is a 20-acre oasis of detailed landscape, orchards and Southern CA native planting while complimenting the natural rocks and gorgeous views.  This master planned 20 acres is a great escape from city life.  Come take in the views, enjoy the many hiking trails and rest in the peace, quiet and beauty of Villa Macala.  *NOTE:  Scroll down to RV/Tent sites to book for a larger tent camping party over 4 people or for a camper van under 14 feet.

Overlooking the Hemet Valley with gorgeous panoramic views of the San Jacinto Mountains, Villa Macala is reminiscent of an Italian Villa. The property landscape includes Olive Orchards throughout, a growing vineyard, fig trees, pomegranate trees and more set in the natural rock landscape. (NOTE: We have tent camp sites only and can accommodate camper vans and truck campers depending on size and which site selected, however we CANNOT accommodate pull behind trailers, pull behind campers or RVs of any kind).

Villa Macala is 15 minutes from Diamond Valley Lake where you can enjoy a wildflower trail, fishing or mountain bike trails, museum and water park. It is 20-30 minutes to Pachea Trail and Simpson Park where you can enjoy more great hiking and mountain bike trails.  It is also a 30-minute drive to Temecula Wine Country. 

Enjoy walking the grounds of the 20 acres and taking in the views. 

We have an outdoor bathroom (please note it is a good walk uphill from the campsites) that campers can use with a shower and small fridge to store your food.  We also have a playground with swing set for kids to enjoy. Please bring your own tents.

Your own fire wood, cooking wood, starter material, lighters, utensils, etc. We offer firewood bundles for $7 you can choose to purchase at time of booking or bring cash.

Your own camp chairs.

Easy up shade. Sunblock, cool clothes. We are closed for the bulk of summer but at times daytime temperatures can reach 90+ even in late spring and early fall.

Our camp stove came in handy for breakfast. 

Nice covered area that worked out well to hang our hammock.

The Unhitched Ranch

The Unhitched Ranch is a family run Clydesdale and Texas Longhorn Ranch. Clydesdales and Texas Longhorns have been the focus of the family owned and operated ranch. The Ranch is approximately 40 acres and is tucked away in a very unique area of Southern California and has spectacular views of the local mountains and city lights. This quaint little canyon is nestled between Loma Linda and Moreno Valley, and is home to about 800 free roaming wild burros that visit frequently.Recently we have added a Gazebo that you can camp near or under as well a a horseshoe pit, and tether ball.  We typically only open the ranch to one group of campers at a time so more than likely you will be alone with us on the ranch.  There is plenty of room for larger groups, feel free to contact us

Gentle giants. We couldn't get enough of them. 

Our hosts were nice enough to let us saddle up and enjoy the stunning ranch views from the back of a horse

You might get pressured by the cutest face ever to share.

Nick was nice enough to take us up the mountain to show us the most spectacular views. There are gorgeous hiking trails on the mountainside perfect for enjoying a sunset hike.

The wild burrows were incredible and friendly, we got quite a few sightings of them Our favorites were the adorable tiny babies!

Eco Glamping Tent

After relocating from South Africa to Southern California we searched to find the perfect property to enjoy endless mountain, ocean and sunset views and a
property that was fertile enough to be able to grow our own organic food. 
Now that we've found and enjoy our dream property we wanted to share it in a unique and exciting way by incorporating our African background and created this Safari Eco Tent so that passionate eco minded campers can also experience this stunning property.
Unplug, Relax and Unwind in this Luxury African Safari Eco tent complete with solar hot water shower, rain water catchment, state of the art compost toilet, solar electric, full bathroom kitchen & Eco Heater.  Experience a bit of Africa on this 2½ acre organic property surrounded by South African Protea flowers, native sages and fruit trees. Fall asleep in your luxury queen size bed with beautiful linens and awaken to the sounds of nature, enjoy nearby beaches, Temecula wineries, Safari Park & outstanding local Vista micro breweries.

The tent is nicer than most hotels I've stayed at...

It's a great spot to do absolutely nothing...

Luxury Queen bedroom suite with comfortable furnishings and wood burning stove.

Tables/chessboard, kitchen area, front porch, whatever you want to call it... incredibly scenic.

Down-to-Earth Ecoshire

Private 35 acre Private Land Restoration Project surrounded by rolling hills, mountain views and open sky. 

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.

Another tent site on the other side of the garden. 

There's a good sunrise watching spot on the hill right behind our tent spot. 

Outdoor kitchen headquarters. This area is still in the works of becoming more of a common space for everyone. 

The lovely hosts: Dawn and Jim! They took good care of us while we were there and told us all about their property.

We forgot the proper utensils to make hot dogs, so we made use with some smores sticks I had. It was quite the adventure trying to get them from the fire to the plate. 

I haven't seen a sunrise in a while that felt this - powerful -

Rock & Tree

It's so nice to "meet you" my name is Taryn and my hubby's name is Anson. We are parents to two-year-old twins, so saying we have our hands full is an understatement. Anson is a folk and blues musician and has traveled
all around the U.S. playing his music and I work for a children's book company. One day, we decided that we wanted to live the rest of our lives hosting live music, and events and that's how Rock & Tree began. As the idea grew, we wanted to create an Open Canvas so that the guest could dream up what they wanted on our stage. We moved to the Inland Empire from Santa Monica, in 2017 with the dream of building an open canvas event space out of sustainable, re purposed and natural materials. Our mission is help enrich the culture of Perris, CA by providing a unique venue that takes you away from the hustle and bustle and takes you to a wonderland of nature surrounded by rocks and eucalyptus trees.

Anson and I continue to build everything ourselves with the help of our friends and family every now and again. Our process is that we source as much lumber using the dead Eucalyptus trees we have here on the 36 acre property and we are constantly trying to come up with innovative ways to use recycled and donated materials in the venue. During the pandemic, we turned our venue into a campground so we could open up the venue to people who needed to get out into nature.   We are now open for daily camping and private events. You can follow our journey on our Instagram.
