Has anyone ever camped here? Kumeyaay Lake Campground Mission Trails?

http://www.mtrp.org/campground

I am looking at this as a base camp for a Friday-Sunday Group event in June. Not a fan of Campland, 4 sites for 2 nights there was over $1000

and there would be extra vehicle charges and extra people charges on top of that.

You feel like your country...right in the middle of town and BBQ fire ring close to liquid store and Mary's donuts and Mexican food on mission gorge peacefull worth the drive definitely

I live in the navy housing right above it. It looks ok if you don't mind "camping" in the city. But yes its a straight shot to LJ on the 52. Its about 15 min or so. But its clean out there.

I have never seen a Google Map aerial shot of an empty SoCal campground before

Funny - lived here all my life and never knew it was there. But then, never had a reason to seek out tent camping sites either.
I actually flew over it once while in the bombardiers seat of a B-17...

I dug a little deeper. The campground is closed Mon-Thur unless Monday is a holiday.

That would explain a deserted SoCal campground.
