Quick Details
Tent Camping at La Jolla Indian Campground
At the historic La Jolla Indian Campground, we’ve been welcoming families to enjoy and recreate on our tribal land for nearly 100 years — and we can’t wait to welcome YOU! Here, choose from multiple primitive campsites along the San Luis Rey River, plus we have campsites specifically ideal for large groups. When water levels permit, enjoy tubing down the San Luis Rey River or simply cool off on the river’s edge. La Jolla Indian Campground is San Diego County’s only campfire-friendly campsite, as fire restrictions permit. This is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and reconnect with friends and family.
IMPORTANT BOOKING NOTES
Now in our Fall/Winter 2024 Season, please note that only areas 1, 2, 3 & 4 are open.
Campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Note that space in our desirable Group Sites can only be guaranteed with a Group Site reservation. While we do allow individual tent campers to occupy Group Sites in the event they are not reserved by a Group, reserved Group Site Bookings always have priority. If you, as an individual/tent camping guest set up within one of our Group Sites and a group arrives having made a reservation, you will be kindly asked to relocate.
Check In Time: 8 AM – 8 PM daily
Check Out Time: 6 PM daily
