About
Lilac Oaks RV Park and Campground is located just north of the unincorporated community of Valley Center. We offer RV camping (mix of full and water/electric only) and tent camping in idyllic settings with great amenities to keep campers of all ages entertained for days. We also have full hook-up spaces available in our 50+ acres of land for long-term RV space rental.
We are surrounded by beautiful country with views of rolling hills and seasonal streambeds lined with native live oak and sycamore trees and the panorama of Rodriguez Peak and the Palomar Mountain range. It is just five miles from Escondido which has one of the best shopping centers in San Diego County, a wonderful hospital district, and boasts all the advantages for which one could ask.
We have a mild climate in which delicate crops such as avocados, citrus, and flowers are successfully produced. There are several ways into the valley and, once entered, the rest of the world drops away, and you become aware of the beauty, orchards, flowers and trees, lovely hills and majestic Palomar Mountain.
