Chino Hills State Park

Narrow 1-2 lane road after you enter the park. 3.2 miles to get to the campground. A couple short sections of the road have an 11% grade.
A bit stressful getting to the campground but well worth it. We had the whole campground to ourselves on our last night. Just hooting owls and coyotes to keep you company. A little peace and quiet in the middle of the big city. Most phones will have no signal, we managed to get one bar with our cell phone booster in camp spot 5. Park had free Wi-Fi which worked for us, but we were not streaming anything.

We were pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem. While the park's trails were closed due to recent heavy rains, the park had a 2.5 mile paved road with beautiful surroundings. We stayed in space 18, as it was one of the easier spaces to back into. It was quiet and clean, especially the bathrooms. There aren't any hook-ups but we didn't miss them at all. Strong Wifi. The park rangers were just amazing!!! Went to sleep with the coyotes yelping and howling. If you need to dump, head over to Prado after your visit. They have dumping available for $15.

All the roads are paved. Roads very crooked and mostly single lane which means any coming vehicle is a challenge to get by. I was with 18’ trailer, I wouldn’t want to travel that road in anything longer. Very, very spotty cell service. Nice and quite at night, spaces spread out. No hook ups at all but nice bathroom and showers. Large hills covered with 6’ tall dried brush. If it caught on fire, it’d be a quick one, hide in the shower and say goodbye to your vehicles.

This was a bit of surprise for us. The wife and I were looking for a place to go for the weekend that was relatively close to LA and we came upon this site. It has 20 sites and when we arrived on Saturday morning ALL were available! The sites all had slabs and ample space for tent. No electricity nor could you have campfires but it was very comfortable with clean restrooms and hot showers included, perfect for a day or 2. Lots of hikers and bikers roaming the rolling hills. We'd stay here again. To be honest I was a bit reluctant to write a review but had to share!

Five stares for what it has not what it lacks.
