What others are saying about this campground
Chilao Campground is a great spot for beginner outdoor enthusiasts looking for a quick and easy getaway from Los Angeles. The campground is well maintained, with plenty of room for two vehicles, a firepit, picnic table, and clean bathrooms. It is a pay-by-honor system campground, so you can fill out the paperwork and pay when you arrive. The campground is usually less crowded than during the summer months and has plenty of spots available. The temperature can be quite cool in the evening, so make sure to bring appropriate clothing. The surrounding area has great hikes and access to the Pacific Crest Trail, so you can explore the Angeles National Forest. Pets are allowed, so you can bring your furry friends along. Be sure to get there early to secure a spot with shade.
