Thanks for the info! I was looking for places close to L.A. to camp and this list is perfect 😀
Thanks so much for this! I had no idea about the last 3 sites and they're so close to me. Much appreciated!
Let us know if you make it to any of those!
Thank you so much…. Best most informative video I’ve seen so far for camping locations 👍🏽🙌🏽
So glad you found it helpful!
Great video. I love exploring as well. You guys inspire me.
Thank you so much for watching our channel! We are so happy that our videos inspire you!!
You have such a cool accent. Thanks for the great video! Learned a lot
haha thanks, glad you enjoyed the video
Thanks for your video. McGill was a surprise actually, we've driven up there but never camped. On our list! Sycamore is also a favorite our ours and we try to go midweek, but it is always pretty busy. We are headed to Red Rock Canyon next week!
Looove sycamore as well. I just looked up McGill and it's temporarily closed! I wonder why. Thanks for the comment!
McGill Campground is my annual vacation spot, such a cool place!
Isn't a great place?? Glad to hear you make it once a year! Thanks for watching, happy camping!
Very interesting video
What a beauty
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Oh wow thanks so much, I like quiet and peaceful campgrounds full of trees. And I do not like playing music when camping also lol
It’s a great campground, one of my favorites. I think I’m adjusting my music expectations, it’s seems that is becoming the norm, when I hear it now I’m like “it is what it is” I still won’t play my music though, but I try not to let people’s music bother me anymore. Let me know if you ever make it to that site!
I've been glamping for over 10 years and now getting back into off road camping. I'm really trying to get away from people.
Thank you! Let us know where you go!
Thank you for the video Juan, any info on how to reserve for McGill Campground?
Hi, thanks for the comment. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I just looked online and for some odd reason it's temporarily closed. www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/lpnf/recarea/?recid=10989
You would probably enjoy El Capitan state beach Campground near Santa Barbara .
Thank you for the suggestion, we’ve been there a few times! We’ve rented a cabin and stayed in a tent as well. Definitely a good place.
Great video! Question, I have a 28ft class c, which one would be an easier drive-and-pull up campsite for a Class C RV?
Hi! We’ve seen RVs in all of them. Unfortunately we don’t have one so I don’t know the size. The best would be to go on their website for the reservations, I’m sure you can get the info there. Best of luck!!
Haha that’s exactly where we are right now. I mean if you have the right group it can be a blast, but we also want to unplug from everything you know.
Leo Carrillo campground near Malibu.
How about internet signal?
Cachuma Lake is my favorite one, you guys should try it.
We actually have been there a few times, we love it!
Do you have a favorite campsite for McGill you can share? Having bears but no bear lockers sounds very irresponsible though.
Yes sir, number 66, it’s first come. And yes, agree with the bears but we believe it’s a newer problem. Let us know how it goes!
@@Juan-Blasquez Thx. How full does this campground get on a weekend? Btw, did you end up going further north this summer to camp?
@@Jose-sy1je we actually haven’t gone there during the weekend, but it never seems to be too busy. Yes, we did make it a little more north, we went to Morro Bay, we’ll make a video about it soon.
@@Juan-Blasquez That's a nice area. I just don't like that power plant there right at the beach. Nice campgrounds as well I heard. You should look into Wheeler Gorge as well. It's not too far and pretty nice.
We've been to Wheeler Gorge before, super nice!@@Jose-sy1je
Red Rock Canyon - Filming Location…Planet of the Apes and Capricorn One, etc…
The original mummy, we were just there, man it was cold at night!!
Hemet lake check it out
Nice video great information, BUT, All of these places are way severely to far away from Los Angeles, A person will spend well over $175 There and $175 on gas alone
I think a couple of hour drive to get away from LA is a pretty good time! $175 on gas? I mean if you drive a car that gives you 5 mpg maybe, but to drive back and forth it cost us around $70, let’s say $100 on food, and let’s say $70 for the site for a couple of nights. I think $250 for a family of four to take a small break is a pretty good deal! If you stay at a hotel it would be at least $250 on the hotel alone, eating out for a couple of days another $150-200, plus the gas no?
@@Juan-Blasquez $70 there and back on gas? Really? What are your driving?
I know for a fact a 30 foot Class C RV, It would take $175 gas there and back
@@thatoks6498 oh I see! We drive a Subaru Outback we get around 23 mpg, an rv does take a lot more gas so you are right about the price on gas
@@Juan-Blasquez Oh ok, Thats the difference, Just wanted to get a understanding
I'm going to be so mad at you if McGill is full of people the next time we go 😂 it really is the best kept secret!! Shhhhh!
Haha we’ve been back and it really depends on when you go. We usually go during the week and we were the ONLY ones last time we were there!
Even raccoons will get in your food and drag it off .
Believe me I know! That was my first experience camping. Funny part is that I didn’t set it up, my wife’s family did, and they are the camping masters 😂😂
It's not really fun anymore when people turn the whole place into a town. I mean, riding bikes? Just do that in your community.So the serenity of the park is gone then. I can look at people in my community not at a peaceful park. LOL
😂
Wisconsin dude? Ha. Don’t think so
Haha yup! 16 years!!
Joshua Tree is NOT near LA
Close enough 😂
It's a whole different county lol..
@@GladysJeannette hahaha close enough to LA
Mr Blasquez, you can't and shouldn't force your opinions on others. Here in America, it is customary to BBQ, drink beer and play music at the campground. Perhaps you are a bit confused about the nature of the activities; if you like silence with your camping, you should engage in dispersed camping or go to retreats that have a code of silence. No disrespect, but you got to be the first Latino I see who doesn't like music. All other Lationos and Hispanic people whom I know, love to blast their music all the time everywhere ( pure vida)
I agree that disperse camping is a good choice, and I’m ok with people playing music. I’m not forcing my opinion on others, but I do have the right to have an opinion, you may not like it and feel sensitive about it, but it’s still my opinion. I’ve been camping for MANY years in many different places, and it honestly is never really a big problem (minus lake Perris, someone playing a trumpet at 7 am) people who camp tend to be more considerate of others, at least I am, I wouldn’t assume that people want to listen to my specific taste of music. When I go into nature I rather listen to birds, the creek, people talking, kids playing than listen to someone’s taste in music. For grilling, drinking beer and music, I have a kick ass patio. Sorry to disappoint by being a Latino that doesn’t dance and play music loud haha. But you are right, I should just expect to people play their music and be ok with it.
I just read your comment to my wife and she likes it! 😂 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@blasquezadventures okay, that's it then, we have to revoke your Latin-ness-ship 😁

They weren’t forcing their opinions on others lol they were pleasant and respectful throughout the video
