About

Discover the tranquil beauty of Laguna Mountain Campground, an immaculately maintained oasis that offers a unique outdoor experience for campers seeking solitude and natural splendor. The secluded and serene setting requires a journey down a rustic road, but promises a rewarding disconnect from the digital world with no cell phone coverage in the vicinity, ensuring a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Perched on a picturesque hill, the campground features an intimate collection of five campsites, each offering a panoramic view that gracefully frames the breathtaking valleys below, captivating visitors with its idyllic vistas. These sites are home to amenities such as fire pits for those cozy campfire moments and covered tables complete with benches, perfect for al fresco dining or simply soaking in the scenery.

For adventure seekers, Laguna Mountain Campground is an ideal base camp. Hikers can embark on an invigorating 10-mile trek along a blocked fire road that transitions into a primitive trail, leading to the summit of Laguna Mountain. The ascent rewards hikers with sweeping landscapes and a sense of utmost achievement. Additionally, the campground serves as the starting point for a picturesque trail featuring a waterfall approximately three miles in, culminating in an exhilarating loop hike that connects back to the road, offering a fresh perspective on the return journey.

This tranquil getaway boasts a genuine escape from the everyday, even providing a bit of adventure with a "sketchy" looking rope climb down to the tranquil falls and inviting pool below, which offers an easier challenge than it appears, though with consideration for appropriate physical fitness.

Respecting the serenity and pristine condition of the area, campers are encouraged to adhere to the principle of “leave no trace,” ensuring the campground remains clean and welcoming for all those who visit. With limited availability, boasting only four spots, securing a site at Laguna Mountain Campground is an exclusive opportunity to commune with nature.

The campground's remote charm is complemented by practical amenities, including vaulted toilets, adding a touch of convenience to the rugged environment. Visitors are reminded to be well-prepared, as the climate can be quite warm and dry during summer months, making it essential to carry an ample water supply for hydration.

For those longing for a digital detox and a reconnection with the great outdoors, Laguna Mountain Campground presents an untamed paradise that brings adventurers and nature lovers alike an unforgettable escape into the wild. Whether it’s witnessing the beauty of a cascading waterfall, indulging in the stillness of a starry night, or simply savoring the solitude of a private campsite amidst stunning landscape, this campground promises a pure and invigorating experience for all who tread its well-preserved grounds.
