About
Welcome to our adult retreat, Hidden Ranch (infants are welcome with parents). We are 420 recommended and LGBTQ friendly. We are at 3,000 feet elevation on a 20-acre ranch near to the Cleveland National Forest, with views of Lake Elsinore . The ranch is completely off-grid and runs on well water, wind, and solar energy. Only propane campfires are permitted. Other listings on this property include a little room, an RV, and a glamping tent. Check Out Reviews [HERE]()
Access to the ranch is simple from Interstates 5 and 15. Cleveland National Forest is home to many scenic sites, including Ortega Falls and the San Juan Loop Trail. Numerous hiking, off-roading, mountain biking, and even hang-gliding launches are available. Lake Elsinore, which is located about 7 miles away, offers services and food alternatives. Dana Point Harbor and Glen Ivy Resorts are all 30 miles away, as are Temecula Valley Wine Country and Pechanga Casino, which are also accessible in around 45 minutes. The ranch also organizes spiritual gatherings, meditation, birthday parties, weddings, and music festivals in addition to camping.
Due to the Holy Fire on 8/9/18 we may not have large mature trees for shade, but the Ranch is more beautiful than ever. In the spring time it’s green beyond belief and the wildflowers are insane with vibrant yellows, orange and purple colors.
