This campsite seems to be a mixed bag. While some campers appreciated the affordability and proximity to Los Angeles, others were put off by the site's appearance and atmosphere. The area is described as more of a storage facility with abandoned vehicles, which can cause some discomfort for those expecting a traditional campsite. However, the host Richard is often praised for his hospitality and responsiveness, providing a sense of security to those who stayed.

Decent Campsite 12 miles to DTLA
Host was very quick to respond to my questions, kind, and accommodating. We just needed a nearby last minute place to park our campervan while visiting friends in town. Host responded quickly and we were glad to have that peace of mind!
We have a Ram Promaster 2500 high roof van (156" wheelbase) and fit fine down the driveway. It is a little tight and steep so make sure you are comfortable with your driving capabilities and are within the recommended size range for camping at this site. They are doing some construction to improve the site so there are some construction vehicles there, but nothing in our way. There were other campers when we stayed and everyone was quiet, kind, and respectful. There are also a lot of RVs being stored at the site. We didn't have a problem with this, just needed a good spot to sleep.
It is an urban area so there is a little road noise, occasional dog barking, etc but nothing too disruptive, we slept fine in our van. There are nearby street lights on all night so make sure you have curtains or window covers.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, just needed somewhere to park last minute for 2 nights and Richard was responsive and accommodating! Great price for the location and having amenities like a bathroom, water, etc.

Decent Campsite 12 miles to DTLA
I ended up receiving different addresses, and bailed on going since it was frustrating and as a single women, I felt uncomfortable.

More of a storage facility for old, abandoned vehicles than a campsite. The price is cheap, but the amount of trash, lights at night, and weird vibes mean I won’t stay here again. If the place was cleaned up and some sort of privacy fence put in, it could be nice. It felt more like a homeless encampment as of February 2025.

Nice Campsite 12 mile to DTLA
Reasonably priced and Truly close to Los Angeles! Site had everything I needed to feel safe and comfortable for the evening. Yes, you do need to go down a hill, but it’s paved and unless there’s an ice storm, it’s navigable.
I believe there’s a walking trail beside the location, but separated by fence and privacy screen. I enjoyed my morning coffee under a beautiful pine 😍. I would definitely stay again!!
