Hideout Mountain Lodge is a peaceful retreat tucked away in the hills of Santa Ysabel, just over an hour from San Diego and a couple of hours from Los Angeles. Spread across 40 acres, the property offers a variety of places to stay — from remodeled cabins with fireplaces and private decks, to vintage trailers, campsites, and RV spots with full hookups and views of Lake Henshaw. This is the kind of place where you slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the landscape. Guests gather around the community firepit, take walks through the oaks, or just relax on a porch and listen to the birds. On weekends, you can wander over to Josie’s Hideout Saloon, our on-site bar and restaurant, known for its live music and western character. We’re just a few minutes from the towns of Santa Ysabel and Julian, easy to get to but far enough away to feel like an escape.

The Cove#1: OakTree Shaded Campsite

100% (30)
Tent site · Sleeps 20
Dry camping, no electrical hook-ups. If you’re coming with a pet(s), please remember to include the fee(s) at the time you make the reservation. Welcome to The Cove, an amazing shaded campsite nestled under a canopy of oak trees. There is enough room for 4 separate 21'x17' campsites comprising the 82' x 17' area (just under 1400 sq ft). But we are limiting the number of separate bookings to just 2 (with maximum of 4 people per site for privacy reasons). We believe in the WOW experience which includes lots of space in nature. However... . . Do you have a large group of campers? You can book the entire Cove area which can probably handle up to around 40 people. PLEASE NOTE: For privacy reasons, if booking only one site, there is a maximum of 4 campers. If you’re coming with more than 4 people, you will need to book the entire Cove - to do this you’ll need to book both sites separately indicating the amount of people that would stay on each site. For example, if you have a total of 7 people you’ll book one site with 4 and other with 3. The buyout fee is the greater of the per camper fee (up to 40) with a minimum of 8 people. For example, if you just want 2 people and guarantee privacy for the whole area, just pay for both sites to a total of 8 people. (The Cove is pretty inexpensive). San Diego Mountain Lodge has multiple camping areas with two locations with electrical outlets, outdoor heated showers, sink, AND outdoor flushing toilets. Both shower locations are just a nearby stroll from The Cove. The preferred showers and bathroom for The Cove is just down the steps from The Crossing campground (next to The Cove) and towards Josie's Hideout Bar & Restaurant. Each Cove site has it's own fire pit. There is a hose attached to Cabin 9 nearby, please make sure to completely extinguish the flames when you are done with the fire. The Cove can accommodate a few cars but you can drop off gear, and parking is nearby (about 50 yards away down the road). NOTE: On Saturday and Sunday afternoons you will hear live music and motorcycle noise until about 4pm and the bar closes between 5-6pm. IMPORTANT: Have Fun. Be safe. Again, when using the fire pit, make sure you put it out with the hose attached to Cabin 9 before leaving the fire pit unattended.

Josie's Hideout Backyard Camping

90% (5)
Tent site · Sleeps 10
Welcome to one of our campsites at Hideout Mountain Lodge! This large terraced camp area called Josie's Backyard Campground has plenty of space to sprawl out and set up camp (No camping next to your car, since this site doesn’t have car access. Parking is located a few steps away, so you couldn’t park next to your tent on this site or come with a rooftop tent, you’d need to book one of our other listings). Located within a Dark Sky Community, the star gazing is unparalleled. Amenities include hot showers, sink, flushing toilets, picnic tables, and BBQ. The camp area is located above our on site restaurant, Josie's Hideout Saloon (open Friday-Saturday 11am-6pm, Sunday, 11am-5pm). On Saturday and Sunday families, tourists, locals, and motorcyclists from all over the world frequent the restaurant to enjoy live music, typically begining around 12pm until 3pm. A note before booking: Since this site is located near the saloon, it’s not completely private (guests might come and go close to it) and you’ll likely hear live music, friendly chatter, and the occasional rumble of motorcycles while the bar is open. It all wraps up around 5PM, but if you’re seeking total quiet during those hours, this may not be the best fit. If you're up for a vibrant atmosphere with peace returning by sunset, you’ll love it here!

# 9 The Zen Den - Modern Cabin

92% (6)
Cabin · Sleeps 2
Cabin #9 is a stylishly furnished, spacious & modest stand-alone cabin which, like all our cabins, has been completely remodeled. It is nestled on a hillside closer to the forest which offers more privacy, but also beautiful partial views of the valley below through the majestic oak trees. There is loads of filtered sunlight to set the right mood, and to make your stay even more memorable, we offer a wood-burning fireplace, a fully stocked kitchen, large flat screen TV, and a cozy reading nook. Along with a huge balcony, we have patio furniture for convenient lounging opportunities to commune with nature! We always knew if we rebuilt it, they would come! This cabin is one of 11 to choose from at the San Diego Mountain Lodge located at Hideout Mountain- a boutique retreat destination on 40 acres of unspoiled nature with an unbelievably cool, one-of-a-kind historic bar and grill called Josie’s Hideout Saloon. Open Friday-Sunday till 5pm, with live music every weekend, weather permitting. Ask us about renting out Josie's Hideout Saloon for your next epic once-a-year (or lifetime?) event! No gathering too small! Your live music stage awaits! Delicious catering options, DJs, fog machine, disco balls, anyone? What are you waiting for! Sound exciting enough? Keep reading to the end for more festive details! Now our backcountry locals aren't the only wildlife around here! This place is full of wild animals like deer, fox, raccoons, bats, ground squirrels and chipmunks. Keep a steady eye (and ear!) open for rattlesnakes, badgers, and mountain lions, oh my! Make some noise so they know you're coming. Be not afraid though, they're honestly more scared of us than we are of them! And once night falls, keep your other ear peeled for our local pack of coyotes while you star gaze under some of the darkest skies in San Diego County! We're also very proud to be a birder's paradise with more woodland birds here than you can shake a stick at! How about a chance to see (and hear!) turkeys, owls, scrub jays, cardinals, woodpeckers, hawks, vultures and even the Western Tanager to name a few! Stroll the grounds and let us know what you discover! We love to encourage our guests to unplug and unwind, but in case you want to Netflix and chill, we have all the modern comforts of home covered here too. Before you turn in for the night, don't forget there is a community fire pit down by Josie's Backyard to enjoy the incredible night sky, while offering the perfect place to meet other interesting guests and enjoy a nightcap after a fulfilling day of local activities with your friends and loved ones. Firewood may be available for purchase on site, otherwise Lake Henshaw is your closest market for anything you might need. If Lake Henshaw is closed, try Santa Ysabel Roadside, down the 79 going back towards the town of Santa Ysabel. They're a well-stocked convenience store that stays open till 9 on the weekdays and 10 on Fri./Sat. Hideout Mountain really knows how to put the "wild" back into YOUR life and is the go-to for the ultimate get away destination for custom-made festivals, weddings, specialized retreats, corporate meetings, team building, course trainings, family reunions, anniversaries or just a romantic weekend with the one you love! Why not invite your friends though and make it the more the merrier! Get lost together, and more often! And with our 11 cabins, 2 vintage camper trailers and the historic 5-bedroom Adobe Lake View Retreat House, we have over 26 beds that could potentially accommodate over 21 couples and up to 5 singles for a total of nearly 50 people with a few couch crashers! With our expanding campground and RV spaces, even more people could join in on a unique event here just waiting to be organized! Hit us up with any questions.

Before you turn in for the night, don't forget there is a community fire pit down by Josie's Backyard to enjoy the incredible night sky, while offering the perfect place to meet other interesting guests and enjoy a nightcap after a fulfilling day of local activities with your friends and loved ones. Firewood may be available for purchase on site, otherwise Lake Henshaw is your closest market for anything you might need.
