Learn more about this land: Welcome to Montezuma Valley Campground! We are excited to welcome you to our special corner of the world. About the property Our property is in the high desert above Borrego Springs at 4,300'. We border Anza Borrego State property which means you’ll be adjacent to plenty of beautiful open spaces. There are many trails in the park which lead to the desert floor from our fence line. On a clear day you can see the Salton Sea from the bottom of the property.  We have great access to nearby points of interest including Borrego Springs which is 20 miles away, Anza Borrego State Park which is adjacent to Julian at 40 miles away, Palomar observatory which is 40 miles away and Cuyamaca Lake which is fantastic for fishing only 45 miles away. If you need to pop into town for any supplies or services you can access Borrego Springs (20 miles away), Julian (40 miles away), Ramona (45 miles away), and Temecula (50 miles away). We have 3 horseshoe pits and 9 frisbee golf baskets for recreation onsite and we have incredible dark skies for excellent stargazing. You may see many different forms of wildlife including mountain lions, coyotes, foxes, bob cats, racoons, badgers, and rattle snakes. You will see many rabbits, squirrels and tons of birds of all kinds! We are really the perfect location for those who love the outdoors! Owners live on site but we like to greet, meet, and then leave you to your stay! Please reach out if you have questions or concerns though. About the listing Our listing is for tents, vans and truck campers, trailers, or RV’s and we can accommodate rigs up to 25ft in length. A few of our 5 sites are pull through sites on dirt and may require some leveling. All sites are dry camping only as we do not have any hookups, though there are two bathrooms and water available in a centralized area on the property.  You can expect High desert and scrub brush environments. Any vehicle should be able to access our property but 4-wheel drive vehicle might make it a little easier to access areas on the outside perimeter of the property. While staying with us you can expect some noise from coyotes, raven….wind and a little highway traffic on s22. Each site will accommodate up to 6 people. Amenities listed below: -Picnic table provided -Two bathrooms available -Pets allowed -Potable water available via spigot -Trash bins available -Limited cell service, no wifi Additional details to note Fires are illegal in our area so please no campfires at anytime. Dogs must be leashed and please no barking + clean up after them. Quiet hours by 10pm please + low light since we are a stargazing area. We do not have a kitchen or cooking area so please BYO supplies. Check in is after 1pm and check out is by 11am.Welcome to Montezuma Valley Campground!

Campgrounds are spacious themselves and not on top of each other like other places. Been there twice and bathrooms are always clean. Close to Julian and Anza Borrego. Fishing nearby.

I love the access availability and the clean bathroom. The sinks are great to clean everything easily after cooking. Would greatly recommend. Sky at nigth was a sight to see. Get out there. 😃

Came for comet, discovered fab camp
Beautiful dark sky area. The stars are out in force if there's no moon in sky. The property is large and welcoming with benches, a Frisbee golf course, horseshoes and more. Good privacy. Simply great bathrooms!! Flush toilets, sinks and well stocked. It's super quiet but the occasional vehicle passes by on the road.

Great camp site above anza borrego
We had a blast at the Montezuma camp ground! The sites are really private, camp host was friendly and the views were spectacular. We got a few horse shoe games in too. Awesome time, we’ll be back!

We really enjoyed this site. The sites are very spacious. Definitely bring your own shade. It is dessert terrain. Host is very accommodating, we rescheduled a couple times due to weather. Bathroom was very clean but only one location. Might want to bring your own bathroom if you pick a site further away. Close to Anza Borrego. I will definitely be back in the fall or spring. All good 👍
