Your perfect base camp to relax, "work" remotely, and explore San Diego from a coastal micro-climate. Designed to welcome RVing guests in a "city-close but just far enough away" ranch-style setting. A must-stop refuge whether returning from your Baja expedition or starting a new one! ******************Conveniently located :-) 3 miles from bay marina/boat ramp 4 miles from Pacific Ocean beaches and State Park 15 miles (30 minutes) from San Diego Zoo 5 miles from US/Mexico border Convenience and grocery stores within walking distance Public transportation and trolley line accessible *******************What to expect: County residential estate at the end of a private gravel road in a tree-lined valley through "rural looking" properties. Ample turn-around on site suitable for trailers and larger vehicles. Neighboring residential subdivision 200 feet away separated by hillside. A screened area with "classic" trucks and "legacy" equipment next to two shipping containers. Pet friendly place where Gwen (canine camp host assistant roaming the property) will announce your arrival. Please let me know if anyone in your group is sensitive to dogs and I can assign her to temporary office duties inside the house. An ambitious landscape design with planting in progress. ******************What we hope you find: A glimpse of the Pacific Ocean and a coastal breeze to greet you on arrival. Spaces for solitude and reflection. Spaces for conversation. Space for celebration. Please note 3D view from space on most mapping services is outdated (zombie-land-like landscape is no longer).

Creekside RV Site

The was a great spot for us to set-up and explore San Diego. It was also great for the dogs, who could run free in the space and play with all the other camper's dogs. The toilet doesn't have a door and the shower is pretty open, so beware that you'll need a buddy to be on the lookout for people coming by if you're on the shy side.

Entry Gate RV Site

We needed a place in Chula Vista for appointments. Super pleased with Joel our host. Really low key atmosphere. We have a large class b van and had no issues. Slightly awkward entrance, just approach slowly and turn gently.

Palm Tree Pull-Through RV Campsite

My family and I enjoyed our time at Joel's hipcamp. The area is tucked back away from the street. Quiet and peaceful but super conveniently located.
