you are looking for
Hassle-free Camping
in a Safe, Quiet
Family Environment...
You've come to the right place!
Our 60 acre, century old campground is unlike anything in
Southern California.
Cool, green, rustic and wonderful!
Bailey's is a Gated, Quiet, Safe, 5500 foot high Mountain-Top Destination - 60 acres located in the big
trees, high atop beautiful Palomar Mountain in Northern San Diego County.
We host small family groups and
couples who want a "no stereos - no generators & no bozos" type of camping
experience.
Most Bailey campers are repeat customers - many visiting for generations now -
who enjoy our "no surprises- easy access" environment.
And to make this even better for you (our small and devoted
family of campers), we are happy to introduce our
new online service...

~ All About Bailey's
Campground ~

Our sixty-acre mountain top environment contains a unique
blend of cool forest and rich meadow.
The
environment at Bailey's
has changed little since our family homesteaded the valley over a century ago.
~ Welcome to Palomar Un-Plugged!
~
We pride ourselves on the relaxed, low-key atmosphere of our place.
And
because of the incredible acoustic qualities of our valley, we ask that
All
Electronic Music Be Left At Home.
In
this way everyone will enjoy the beauty and serenity of our special
environment!
Of course, guitars around the campfire are always welcome - but we do ask
that you keep the volume down after 9:00 PM.
~ We're Fishing for Campers ~

Bailey's Pond Looking
Up-Valley
Bailey's Pond has year-round breeding populations of
Perch,
Bluegill, Catfish and
Bass, plus a host of other aquatic
critters.
From the youngster with worm-on-hook to the seasoned fly fisherman, everyone
is a winner. Our private pond requires no fishing license, but we do ask
that you practice
Catch-and-Release
only, please

Kids will
enjoy our "pond biology" as they watch fish cruise the water's edge
among dragonflies, monster tadpoles and bull frogs.
For those of you after Trout
and
other game fish for the frying pan, try Doane's Pond in nearby Palomar
State Park,
just 5 minutes away.
