Overview

The San Gorgonio Campground provides access to a variety of recreational opportunities, as well as a beautiful location in which to enjoy nature. Its proximity to scenic trails and nearby mountain lakes and streams make the campground a great place to bring the family to relax and get away from it all.

Recreation

The campground provides access to the famed Santa Ana River Trail, which when completed will run from the mountains all the way to the Pacific Ocean, providing spectacular views along the way. It is currently popular for hiking, biking and horseback riding.

The Rio Monte Trail is also accessed from the campground, taking hikers to the Rio Monte Panorama, which overlooks the deep gorge of the Santa Ana River Valley.

Visitors to the area also enjoy fishing in nearby mountain streams, as well as bird and wildlife viewing, as a variety of species make their home in the forest. A nearby amphitheater also provides weekend evening educational programs for the public during summer months.

Facilities

The campground offers dozens of single, double and accessible sites, available for tent and RV camping. Utility hookups are not available, however, the parking spurs are paved and provide a level surface. A dump station with potable water is available at a nearby campground.

Each site is equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. Accessible flush toilets, showers and drinking water are provided. A campground host is available on-site and firewood is available for purchase at the facility.

Overall is was a good experience. You can go into the town of Big Bear about 32 minutes away. Spend the day over at Jenks Lake or take a nice hike up around the ridge. The one down fall is camping neighbors have a hard time being quiet at 10 am and there is nobody that helps with that so it can be a very long sleepless night.

The site was clean also the bathrooms & showers but the site was full of bees ! Hundreds of bees during the day was very frustrating. They should close this campground & remove the bees

Campsite was clean and raked when we arrived. Loved the running water and flushable toilets. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful. Only negative was a huge, noisy family right next to us, and a lot of traffic noise from the highway. The local trails are great, with one leading to a beautiful fishing lake. I'd probably stay here again, but try to get a site further from the highway next time.

Seems like a very family friendly campground. Incredibly sweet hosts and the solar showers were a luxury! Some sites seem very close together, but they’re nice and roomy and accommodated my car and small camper very well. There’s cell service here which I personally try to stay away from but I would still visit again.
