Thank you
Do you show 38?
HI.. sometimes I cant show all campsites because theres too many or maybe another reason. Just giving an idea what they look like
Hi Alex, I have 2 questions for you. What are the boxes for at the actual campsites, and do they have any ADA campsites?
Hi there...yes most campground must have a few ADA sites. Sorry I forgot to show it for you guys. My apologies. The boxes it's actually a food kind of pantry to put your food or other camping stuff.
How fun! Your trailer looks so awesome what would you mind kindly sharing the info? I’ve been searching for something this cute and compact. Is there any other lake sites you recommend? 😊 thank you! Please stay safe out there get yourself a whistle and some bear spray in case God forbid you come upon intruders 🙏😊
Hi there... Thank you so much! If you're looking to buy a little trailer like this, keep your eyes peeled on on market Facebook. I looked for months and finally found one. They are very comfortable and easy to pull with a small vehicle. Thank you for watching. 🙏😊
Tiny roaches got in the trailer and breeding now.
😂
Is it yr round
Hi Open Season:04/19/2024 - 10/05/2024
We been going here for years, there use to be bears but since they change the trash cans we havnt seen them.
How did you get there since angeles crest highway is cloae like 9 miles up
Hi ....from 210 fwy east to Hwy2 (Angeles crest Scenic to Angeles Forest Hwy to Mt Emma Rd to Fort Tejon Rd then right on 106th Street to Cima Mesa Rd to 96th Street East Left on Alimony rd left on Little Rock truck trail until you hit campground. Takes 2hrs and 20minutes total drive. Long way but only way to get there now until they reopen😏
cool set up! enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you🙏😊
I camped there last year on a last minute whim. I had high hopes buut found the camppground super ghetto. It was so strange and it felt like anyone can campp anywhere I should have moved sites buut stuck through it. The lake part itslef was nto too bad but the camppground could use some work. I'd ercommend peopple kep an really close eye on their stuff at this camppground. 😢
Really is a beautiful place, camera does not do it justice.
Just ask the fisherman next time can you take a picture of the bait are fishing lure
Thank u Alex for the tour & recommendation. We will be trying this place out soon. We also car camp, but in our RAV4, when we don’t want to tow our travel trailer. Love your videos! 👍
Thank you, guys. It means so much. You'll love it out there🫠
Love your channel 👍
Thank you🫠
I had a similar setup with my four runner instead of pop up awning I had an ARB awning mounted on my rig
That is cool! I was surprised how comfortable it was
I like that park and your video made me feel like I was there.. Thanks XWA
🤣
Seen you visit a million campsites and this is the first to see you actually camp. You have a simple awesome setup!! Question, how do you let your self out of the FJ when wake up? I have an 07 FJ and will likely copy your platform idea, super simple. Better than my big ol ugly RTT which destroys my gas mileage 😂. Great stuff alex looking forward to more!
Hi there...first time camping in my fj...getting out was difficult went thru the front seats but going to make a handle on the back door to be able to get in and out😂
@@xplorewithalex9752 PLEASE POST A VIDEO OF THAT MOD!! 🙌🏻
Where is the water hole around this campsite?
Hi there. Go to Cooper Canyon Falls, all you have to do is start at the Buckhorn Campground and take the Burkhart Hiking Trail! The water isn’t deep, but considering how refreshing this swimming hole in Los Angeles will feel on a warm summer’s day 😁
You said there's no off-roading near the campgrounds yet there's at 4:09 there's a side by side. Do they allow off-roading with quads off the campsites? Like nearby dirt roads?
Hi.. there are posted signs, so I can't tell you what other people do. If I see signs I'll let you know.😄
Lake Perris is one of the worst for camping and fishing.
Is that close to the 210 ? Manzanita sites look bigger than little pine. No river ? Thanks XWA 😘
Hi no river but little pine looks bigger
@@xplorewithalex9752 bigger sites or bigger campground
Hey again, I went to this campground yesterday to check it out , looked promising but I talked to one person there that said it gets crazy busy on the weekends . Did you end up staying there? Did your stay extend into a weekend ? Was it super crowded???thanks again
Hi there...I went on a Saturday to check it out, and it wasn't busy, but it's a hit and miss with first come. First, serve campgrounds. You just have to be there early to get a spot. Most of the time in the summer, you can expect to fill up quickly. I didn't camp there, but if you are planning to stay there, then head out a day earlier.😄
Such a great job, thankyou 😊
Thank you for watching, hope it helped😊
Thanks for the video! I was born and raised in this area! Great to see it.
You are so welcome 🙏 🤗
That’s my rig between 12:12 and 12:14,,nice vid
Oh wow..hope you had a fun time😊
Hi I was wondering if you would be interested in sell the trailer
Hi... As of right now, no. Who knows, maybe later on in the future. I completely renovated it even though it was in excellent shape. I've had motorhomes and trailers but wanted something small to travel and pull with my car and that I can still go to all camps without issues. I love my " Suzie" that's what I named her😁. If I ever decide, I can let you know. If you're looking for something like mine, check Facebook market. I recently saw 2 or 3 up for sale. They are really comfortable for 1 or 2 people. Ill keep you in mind.😊
Hi Alex what's the Crack in asphalt at every camp cite
🤣 Hi there...yes many RVers believe these campgrounds need to be repaired, updated, reopened, expanded, and/or modernized, Like longer and wider sites, additional RV hookups, improvement of the day-to-day upkeep of campgrounds, and more RV-friendly campsites, but unfortunately, there's always been a shortage in funds and staff. With more campers now and more campground usage, the staff (Rangers) are overloaded with projects and unable to do the repairs needed. I've seen this throughout the years and hasn't changed. 😔
Nice review of the campgrounds thanks for sharing and stay safe my friend
Thank you so much..be safe😊
Nice video, very informative, one question though, it show as if the roads are closed, is that the case? Also, do you believe it safe enough for a 34 foot RV? Cheers! 🍺
Oh yes, safe enough for 34 foot rv no problem there. Yes I believe some roads are close but contact the visiting center. For more information about the Center, conditions and activities call (626) 796-5541
Thanks….I hear there is a mountain bike trail nearby. Might have to go check it out.
Yes cool place to mountain biking. Be safe😊
This video was very informative. Thank you.
Thank you..😊
Is the highway CA-2 closed?
I would check, but I'm not sure as of today 6/2024 Please visit the Caltrans QuickMap to view several types of real-time traffic information layered on a Google Map. The information includes traffic speed, lane, and road closures due to construction and maintenance activities, incident reports..
Been by there 100 times heading to the Sierra's, always wondered what the camp grounds were like. Looks like a nice place to camp. Great video Alex thanks for what you do 👍.
Thank you for watching hoped it helped😊
And people just walk right into your Campground and stuff like that no it's not right I mean I have some kids that rock my RV while I was inside and I thought it was the earthquake or something and ran out and the music was really loud and they don't have no respect
No respect..sad😐
Yeah that's the problem with Lake Perris add the same problem and I had a whole bunch ants I mean the whole entire payment was filled with ants I woke up and I like what and I started spraying them and then the ranger came and told me why am I spraying and I told him and for the price and not that sanitary is not right
I am so sorry...like me didn't expect that many roaches. Not relaxing at all😒
The water is very low in this video! We love Shaver and are going there today for five glorious days!!
Hi there...that is awesome. You guys have fun and be safe!😄
@@xplorewithalex9752 As of June 26, 2024 the lake is full.
That's great!👍
I had my camp equipment stolen from my site while I was out in my vehicle exploring for the day, I will not go back
Oh wow! 😔
Big pines on a small road. Clean air at that elevation.. Thanks XWA
Thank you
What would you recommend for a water front campsite with some shallow water holes for a 2 yr old and maybe a couple deeper ones for dad? Within 2 hrs of Simi valley
Hi there...well, if you're looking for beach, the Thornhill Broome Campground at Point Magu State beach is directly on the beach. Another one is Buena Vista Aquatic Recreational Area and Campground, which is a bit farther but a lot of fun for kids and adults. There are several creeks near Simi Valley, like Wheeler George Campground, too. STECKEL Park Campground is another water front Campground in Santa Paula. If your willing to go a bit further near fresno there's a few lakes with water front...Success Lake or closer south Yucaipa Regional Park has the huge lagoon with a beach for adults and kids to hang out all day. This is a bit farther in Yucaipa, CA. But this one is worth it. I hope that helped. I have videos on all these.. but unfortunately, youtube messed up my audio. My earlier videos got all messed up along with music...just terrible. I just have to revisit and redue them for you guys. 😒 but at least you can see what the place looks like . So the further you go you can find better places to visit. Again, thank you for watching. I hope I help some😇
@@xplorewithalex9752 yes thanks for your quick reply, we love Thornhill broome . One of our go to spots . Been looking for creek and shallow river spots like keysville , goldhill camp area , I’ll have to try wheelers gorge and steckel park, any good spots on the San Gabriel River or Santa Ana River or Azusa you know of ?
Try Camp Williams Resort address:24210 E Fork Rd, Azusa, CA 91702 Ps . Kind of small Campground, I've camp there before but has water front sites. Goldhill camp I ve been twice but last 2 times they were closed due to past storms. I went early January and March of this year and was closed I am sure by now it's open. Might go back soon. 😇
@@xplorewithalex9752 ya I’ve been wanting to check it out maybe I’ll try it . Thank you .
I grew up in Taft, and used to go up there in the 1960's. It was a happening place with a dance on the weekends. There was also a pay to fish pond called Wheetly's Lake. There was also a tough hike to another creel called Bear Trap. Lots of good memories!
That's awesome. Thank you😊
Howdy fellow Taftian!
is it permitted to camp in your car??
Hi..haven't seen anyone there camp in car
@@xplorewithalex9752 thank you for replying
Thank you for great video helpful
Thank you for watching 😊
Next time you need a camping buddy 🥰 you are just too cute.
HI ALEX looks like a nice campground
It's very nice😊
Cool videos!!!
Well thank you..I hope they help out.😇
Wait so no tents??
Yucaipa Regional Park has a specific area where you can tent camp but you can't pitch a tent in the Rv Hook-up area.😊
Thanks for what you do. I'm planning on doing some camping this summer, your videos help me greatly 😊
Thank you so much! I am so glad my videos help out. That's the idea to get people to enjoy the outdoors more. With so many campsites out there, there's lots to choose from. Have fun!😊
Do you have coordinates please?
Hi..here you go..COORDINATES 34.41331962 N 117.82514967 W
