The Pool is OPEN!

Say HELLO! to LUCKY at the Pinecrest Clubhouse office/snack shop!

The Pool is open! Yoga at the waters edge is back! And Plans are set for a fun 4th of July Party!

Come enjoy the pool. The solar heated water is nice and warm and clear. (Here's a well kept secrest: come during the week and you'll find you and your friends have the place almost to yourself.) Week-ends are also fun for meeting up friends poolside for a picnic and a laugh.

Bring your guitar or ukelele and make a little music! Check the bulletin board for Movie Nights times and dates, Poolside Yoga schedule and special events!

Forget to buy ice on the way to camp? Buy some at the clubhouse shop for $2.50.

ALSO: WE NOW HAVE WI-FI AT THE POOL (FREE). Just ask the friendly Clubhouse Representative to turn it on for you... check your email and up date you facebook profile or even make a post the the "PINECREST (for members only)" facebook page.

Let's all stay connected online this summer and make our wonderful community even stronger!

Pinecrest: America's foremost location for vintage trailer camping and poolside lounging.

Pinecrest Resort is America's foremost location for vintage travel trailers and those who love them. A growing community of creative individuals who enjoy spending time in nature, and with one other: hiking, swimming, gardening, grilling, roasting marsh-mellows over a camp fire, participating in the art of conversation and best of all sharing in the preservation of the great American travel trailers from by-gone days.

Tucked into a tree-shaded canyon high in the Cuyamaca Mountains an hour’s drive from downtown San Diego, is the homebase for nearly 100 vintage travel trailers and motorhomes. Call it a yacht club for RVs, where owners have permanent spaces to park their rigs and set up for outdoor living. You can spend as much or as little time as you want with your RV. You can entertain friends and family, cocoon yourself with a book, even meet some new friends who love old trailers as much as you do.

The Evolution is YOU!

Pinecrest is a gathering place for like-minded creative people who value the ideas of conservation, preservation, restoration and good taste. These concepts are epitomized by the vintage travel trailers Pinecresters own and enjoy. There is a special element of "recycled eco-chic" which is at large in the park, and with that sensibility there is also an emerging community.

At Pinecrest, living well doesn't mean having a lot of money. Living well means cooking with friends, spending time in nature, having room to breathe and perhaps an occasional moment of tranquility. But more that that, Pinecrest is a work in progress. Blending old ideas with new: solar power, camp fires, swimming, yoga, napping, music, board games and conversation are all a part of the mix.

Pinecrest is unique because it is a "members only" retreat, with room to spread out and the freedom to make your space your own. It has one of the largest, cleanest solar-heated pools in all of Southern California. Pinecrest is a safe place, where members may come to find personal solitude or bring their friends and family to enjoy quality time together.

But best of all Pinecrest is an evolving community, and the evolution is you!

Pinecrest's colorful history:

Pinecrest got its start in the early 1960s as a retreat for the workers of General Dynamics and Convair. The early site holders at Pinecrest brought in an array of trailers—some fresh from the dealer, others from by-gone eras. The unique history of Pinecrest means there are many hidden gems nestled here, and you’ll sometimes find a classic trailer bounded by the trees that have grown up around it.

In the seventies, Pinecrest became privately owned and managed by Stan and Dian Cornette, who lovingly maintained the park and drew in a more diverse group of campers, reaching out to new generations.

Stan and Dian retired in December 2005, and new owners Frank Spevacek and Kathleen Rosenow have brought a new spirit to the park, building on its history as they shape its future. Kathleen and Frank are dedicated to making Pinecrest a living lesson in “Green” technology. They are currently in the process of bringing a ecologically savvy sensibility to the park, including solar technology, modernized water systems, a new shade pavilion for the pool area, and other innovations that will use recycled materials and sustainable technologies.

The “golden years” of travel trailers came after the aviation surge of World War II, and many iconic travel trailers, like the Airstream and the Spartans, trace their lineage back to the war effort. Companies that had built tens of thousands of aircraft in order to win the war converted to making travel trailer in order to celebrate our victory in the post-war era, in the ultimate expression of “swords into plowshares.” Many of these trailer models had a hopeful, futuristic style and used “space age” technology to promote the feeling of a boundless future. At Pinecrest, there is a unique mixture of old and new, retro and techno, rustic and wrangled, vintage and vibrant. Pinecrest is where yesterday’s future meets the vitality of today.
