Tijuana River Valley Campground - San Diego, California

Marcus Geier

Sehr ruhiger Campingplatz, die Mitarbeiter sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
Wir haben sehr gute Tipps bekommen für unseren Ausflug nach Mexiko.
Die Sanitären Anlagen sind super.

Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Campingplatz selbst hat aber gar keinen Charme und wirkt recht öde. Aus den Duschen kommt eher ein Rinnsal. Ich fand es auch nicht so sauber.

I had an amazing experience in this secluded and peaceful campground. It was awesome to visit the border and walk around the area that is loaded with wildlife.

The campground was easy to access and affordable, very peaceful and relaxing. This area has many attractions if you're willing to be adventurous and keep your eyes open.

Un camping bien entretenu, correctement équipé et propre. Le ranger qui nous a accueilli était sympa. Nous avons même acheté du bois pour notre campfire.

Par contre, je n'ai pas vu dans les autres commentaires qu'il y avait des hélicoptères qui tournaient, quasi h24, pour surveiller la frontière mexicaine proche. C'est un peu bruyant et gâche la sérénité que mériterait cet endroit.

When I was researching community gardens for a story, a garden manager insisted I visit Tijuana River Valley's because it's so huge. From there, I took a drive past the horse stables to get my bearings and was so surprised to find a campground with yurts! I'd been inside a yurt at a Mingei Museum exhibit many years ago, so this piqued my interest. Over summer, I spent a bit of time learning about Pixca Farms, which grows within the community garden and has a produce stand. There's also a small farm education property down there, horse rentals, a butterfly garden and some trails. I decided to stay a few nights to make it easier than driving in every day. The yurts are craftsman quality, very clean and spacious. Be advised that in summer they get hot inside at midday, just like a tent, and cold at night because you are close to the ocean and river. Also, they aren't much more sound-proof than a tent and an occasional insect will get in, given that you are in a rural, equestrian area, where the river occasionally floods. So, take insect repellent. If you are allergic to bug bites, definitely go with the yurt rather than a tent. The park was clean, nicely landscaped and well managed. The staff were friendly. I enjoyed doing a hike across the road up to the top of a mesa on an old road, where there were meadows of wildflowers, plus great views in all directions. On occasion, the valley can get odiferous because of flooding but it wasn't that way when I was staying. A couple of people told me that aircraft kept them awake at night. However, I slept like a log. On a positive note, it was so relaxing being out in nature in such a vast space and interacting in this slow-paced and less-traveled corner of San Diego county, where cute miniature horses cross the roads, tossing their little blond manes. My favorite moment was when I arose early one morning to witness a breathtaking misty valley view, with the sun just rising over silhouetted yurts. All kinds of people camp here or spend part of their day -- hikers, travelers and groups who love getaways and social nights around a campfire.

Very quiet campground with clean sites and facilities. Even on Christmas holidays it was easy to get a spot on arrival, without reserving in advance. Great to be out of the city, yet close enough to drive in to do city activities during the day. On a Saturday between 10-2, be sure to visit the Pixca farm stand on Hollister Road, across from Blanco Brothers ranch. The vendor was awesome, and it was the best quality produce I've found in the area, for a very reasonable price. Grown in the adjacent community garden.
