San Diego Mountain Lodge is a beautiful escape to nature sprawled out over about 40 acres on a breathtaking spot that we call Hideout Mountain in Santa Ysabel, CA. Multiple experiences are offered: -- glamping in our vintage camper trailers, -- RV sites with full hookups and incredible views of Lake Henshaw -- campsites, -- luxury camping in our remodeled cabins (studio, 1br, and 2br cabins) each with different amenities ranging from full kitchens, wood burning fireplaces, large outdoor decks and private fire pits. Gather and share ideas with fellow guests at our community firepit and picnic tables. What makes Hideout Mountain a magical place? #1 on the list are the stunning views as far as the eye can see of Lake Henshaw and the valley and surrounding mountains. We also have a one-of-a-kind, world renowned restaurant and bar on the property: Josie's Hideout Saloon, open on weekends with live music. We are located just a few minutes drive away from downtown Santa Ysabel and Julian, with easy access off Hwy 76.

The Cove: Oak-Tree Shaded Campsite
Can’t wait to come back
Tent camping here was a ton of fun. Some live music from Josie’s hideout during the day, and lots of quiet peacefulness at night. Our dogs loved being off leash and hanging around in the wilderness. If you hike up a little towards the cabins, you can see the water in the distance. Bobby the on site manager was also very helpful and responsive

The Perch - RV Parking
Beautiful weekend!
The site was easily accessible for our 30’ fifth wheel. The road was in good shape and maintained well. Water and power was nicely situated near the best views on the site. The staff are friendly and helpful. The view was serene and peaceful. There was no other camp site in view (amazing) just Palomar Mountain and lake Henshaw. Beautiful star gazing and quiet mornings. We were there on a weekend so the sounding roads have a lot of motorcycles riding out to the mountains during the daytime. All in all The campsite is well worth checking out, you wouldn’t be disappointed.

Good spot, just be cautious
I stayed at the campsite called "the cove". Beautiful views, dark starry skies, and I was surrounded by oaks and listened to the sounds of crickets and coyotes in the distance. There is some music and commotion at The Hideout but once the hideout closed it was peaceful and quiet for a while. Sadly my site was close to cabin #9 and late in the evening there were people hanging out on there porch, talking very loudly, cussing, drinking beer, and they turned on the front porch ruining the dark night, peace, and quiet. I would recommend this place just not this particular spot unless the site host ensures things stay dark and quiet after a reasonable time. Otherwise pick a site a bit up from there.

Camping with my love
We loved the Perch view at the top and the cute biker bar at the bottom of the hill! It was the most beautiful space with friendly staff and campers. Truly the best view I have seen this year!
