About this property

VCT#1 The Real Teal - Vintage Camper -Glamping W/Lake Views

The Real Teal (Vintage Camper Trailer #1) is a vintage retro camper that offers a complete glamping experience! Located closest to the top of Hideout Mountain, the backdrop of breathtaking views of Lake Henshaw and the surrounding SD Mountain Range will leave you awe inspired. Staying in a little camper has never looked this cool or been this easy! Simply drive-up, park your car and immerse yourself in nature at the San Diego Mountain Lodge. With a full kitchen, huge private patio space equipped with a BBQ, picnic table & bar height table. To set the nighttime vibe we have a fire pit and string lights.
The Real Teal is a pet-free stationary camper with a full-size bed. There is a bathroom with a flushing toilet inside the trailer and an outdoor shower with hot water just steps away. There is also a park-style charcoal BBQ and a fire pit. There is a 20 ft bar height table to hang out at and take in the spectacular views. Parking for any size vehicle.

This is retro camper is just one of the many options to stay at Hideout Mountain. We are a boutique retreat destination on 40 acres of unspoiled wilderness with an unbelievably cool, one-of-a-kind historic bar and grill called Josie’s Hideout Saloon. Open Friday-Sunday till 5, with live music every weekend, weather permitting.
Ask about reserving Josie's Hideout Saloon for your next once-a-year(or lifetime?!) event. No gathering too small! Your live music stage awaits! Your live music stage awaits! Imagine delicious catering options, DJs, a fog machine and disco balls! What are you waiting for?! Sound exciting enough? Keep reading for more details!
Don't think that our backcountry locals are 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 open for rattlesnakes, badgers and mountain lions, oh my! Make some noise so they know you're coming. Be not afraid, they're honestly more scared of us than we are of them! And once night falls, keep your ear's peeled for our local pack of coyotes while you star gaze under some of the darkest skies in San Diego County! 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.
The fully stocked kitchen has all the essentials to cook a delicious home-cooked meal (once you go to the market first!) and a Keurig coffee machine for that morning cup o' joe. There is a shared outdoor fire pit to enjoy the incredible surrounding landscape, and offers the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine after a day of activities with friends and loved ones. Park it right there! Private parking spaces will accommodate any two large vehicles.
Hideout Mountain really is your go-to for the ultimate get away destination for a retreat, festival, reunion or just a romantic weekend with a loved one. Invite your friends and make it more the merrier! We are just 18 minutes from Julian and down the road from the Santa Ysabel Business District. We are also uniquely situated as a hub for popular biking, hiking, boating, fishing and motorcycle riding. Our spacious property is the perfect place to BBQ, entertain, play outdoor games or just relax and enjoy the breathtaking views of Lake Henshaw, Palomar Mountain & the spectacular valley below!

We not only have Josie's Hideout Saloon & Grill with it's outdoor live music pavilion, there's also San Diego Mountain Lodge! And with 11 cabins, 2 retro campers 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. We want to help make your Hideout dreams come true!

Great Hidden Gem!
My husband and i stayed here for one night. The views are spectacular! Josie's Hideout Saloon had great food and drinks. The trailer is small, but fine for two people and cozy. Will definitely come back!

Single night Getaway
Wanted a one night getaway to destress. This place was very quaint and was perfect for the one night. Online manager answered all my questions and was very helpful. Allowed us to check in early (upon paying a fee). Some of the info about Josie's hideaway was not up to date as well as the early check in fee but it did not deter us from staying here. Will be back again.

Perfect Getaway
My husband, pup, and I live in San Diego, but wanted to get out of town. We found this RV at SD mountain lodge and it was perfect. We drove right up, check in was seamless, we enjoy the RV, patio, and fire pit. It was the perfect location to get to the Eagle Rock hiking trail we wanted to do. The kitchen was fully equipped with a fridge and electric stove. We brought premade food from Trader Joe’s and heated everything up easily.

Real Teal Review
Review from my gf: "My boyfriend and I stayed at this RV site for 2 nights during thanksgiving with our dogs. We had a little trouble getting inside because we didn’t receive check-in instructions but when we made it inside, it was very nice. It was super cold outside at night but the bed has a heated blanket and there was a space heater, so we were able to stay warm. We enjoyed the outdoor shower and the fire pit, as well as the grill and picnic table. The lookout rail / fence and the outdoor lights were a nice touch. They had a few extra blankets, extra sheets, and nice soap inside of the shower. I have never stayed in an RV before so I wasn’t sure what the toilet would be like, but it was actually pretty nice. Just a heads up for anyone who has mobility trouble - there is a steep incline from the parking space to the RV itself so it’s a bit of a workout. It would be a nice addition to build steps for the incline. I was confused because the VRBO listing said that the RV has wifi in one section, but in another section it says it does not have wifi. It ended up not having wifi but that is fine, we enjoyed the local scenery and parks. Our only main issues were slow communication with the property manager/owner and the kitchen sink which didn’t really push out water. It seemed like we may have been one of the first guests staying here so they’re probably just working out some kinks. "
