    Yosemite Pines RV Resort & Family Lodging

    Good Place for Kids

    With a pool, petting zoo, a corral where they have a fire and s'mores followed by a movie, this is a great place to camp with the kids.

    The showers are free and usually clean although on Saturday evening the campground was full and the bathrooms were dirty and out of TP.

    There are tent sites, RV sites and cabins so something for everyone.

    There were A LOT of stray cats on the property which kind of drove our dog crazy. But at least the campground is pet friendly.

    If you plan to go into Yosemite NP, it's a long drive so plan accordingly. Our family really enjoys Rainbow Pools and Yosemite Pine's proximity to Rainbow Pools is part of why we stay here. The kids can jump and swim there and that's all they really want to do anyway so being close to that is key for us. So many of the places in the park where we used to get in the water do not allow swimming anymore.

    Rancho Seco Recreation Area

    All types of fun !

    I love this place because it is about 45 minutes from the house.  There's plenty to do with lots of great sites.  The first time we went, they didn't have any annual passes because they lady was out that day. But the other day, we were able to finally get a season pass.  You can fish, hike, or swim here. The campsites are spacious and you don't feel over crowded if there is a family next to you. It's pet friendly. The store was recently redone and they offer a wide variety of items, from keep sakes to any necessity you may have forgotten ( lighter, logs, clothes shoes, etc... )  There also boat rental that are a fair price, plus you get them for an hour or so. ( You will have to check the prices and availability. ) There's a dog park for the dogs to roam free off the leash, which also has access to water/ beach area for the dogs only.

    49er Village RV Resort

    Convenient to area wineries

    General: This is a HUGE RV park (a Sun Resort) with back-in, pull-through sites, and cabins. We called a day ahead to see if there was room and on a weekday in early May, there was plenty of availability. We even received a Spring Flash Sale (40% off) rate which, although more than we usually spend to camp, was reasonable. As is typical of RV parks, there is a small patch of lawn between sites but virtually no privacy. There are trees throughout the park and although it is located right on the road, only the sites that back up to the road hear road noise. There is a small pond in the center and we saw some ducks. All camping sites have full hook-ups and a picnic table but no fire ring or grill. There is a large laundry room and a café. We were assigned a site at check-in. 

    Site Quality: Pads are paved and level. The back-in sites in the center back up to each other with no divider between them. I saw several large RVs look almost like they were touching! 

    Bathhouse: Two bathhouses each with three stalls, two sinks, and two showers. Although there is a curtain separating the showers from the rest of the bathroom, the bench is outside of the shower stalls, which could be awkward. However, in the time we were there, I never saw a single person in the bathroom(assuming most people use their own bathrooms in their RVs). The shower had good water pressure and hot water.

    Activities: There is a pool, playground, rec center. Shuffleboard, horseshoes, and beach volleyball. It is a half-mile around the perimeter, so I was able to enjoy a short run.

    This is not our usual type of camping experience, but since we met friends at a nearby winery, this worked for us since we did not want to drive far.

    Yosemite Ridge

    Nice main loop, but...

    Summary as of late June 2020:

    -Super nice, helpful manager -Great location for Yosemite/Hetch Hetchy -Large, clean restrooms -Inconsistent electricity -Bear Lot is right next to Hwy 120 -Coyote Lot is literally a new gravel parking lot, 4x4 required -No wi-fi in Bear Lot or Coyote Lot

    First of all, I have to say that the manager (owner? I never caught his name) was very kind and tried his best to accommodate everyone there. The location is great for trips to Yosemite, and if you’re lucky enough to reserve a spot in the ‘main loop’ (I don’t see this ability online), you’ll probably love it. The bathrooms are large and clean and there is laundry, a small playground, a small pool (closed during our stay), and a privately run store on-site.

    We brought our 28’ toy hauler here at the end of June 2020. We had reserved a spot in Coyote Lot, which we were told over the phone would be no problem. Upon arrival, the manager had his doubts but told us to “put the truck in 4x4 and give it a go!” Coyote Lot looks like a newly, semi-leveled gravel parking lot with full hook-ups… no trees or shade. There were some longer spots, but there was no way our trailer would fit in the one we reserved. The lot also exits through a run-down residential grouping of trailers, some occupied and some abandoned.

    The manager put us in Bear Lot, no question, after it was determined Coyote Lot would not work. This lot is a little more established than Coyote, but still a gravel parking lot with electricity (inconsistently for many) and water hook-ups. The lot is pretty level and separated from Hwy 120 by a wooden fence. There are some picnic tables and fire pits, but not enough for each spot. We didn’t end up having to use our generator like others did. There were tent campers and rv/trailers in this lot.

    Side note: the Rainbow Pools swimming hole that is recommended on the website was WAY overcrowded and I do not suggest going unless maybe you go in the early morning. There were tons of people, tons of litter, and no respect for nature… very sad to see.

    Thousand Trails Yosemite Lakes

    Hillside yurt #6

    Fairly clean, a few of the dishes needed rewashed, but it‘s required that the previous occupants wash and put away their dishes. Quiet, the neighbors were all pretty quiet, occasioanlly a car would drive past the road that backs up to the yurts. Comfortable bed, gas stove heater and AC worked well. I didn’t use the propane grill that was on the balcony, it was very dirty, and one of the grates were broken. Nothing spectacular about my 2 night stay. About an hour drive all the way to Yosemite Village.

    North Grove Campground — Calaveras Big Trees State Park

    Awesome Cabins!

    There are 4 cabins that can be rented from the Park Service however, they are not actually in the park. They are across the highway and up in the hills. We drove to the park but it's only short distance.

    The cabins are great but expensive, $170 per night, so I deducted a star. They are rustic. No TV, no air conditioning (just ceiling fans), no bedding or towels. You bring your own.

    Three Links Camp

    Awesome for families!

    Three Links Camp is a private campground just below Stanislaus National Forest on 108. The campground has dorms for families/groups (a building with bunk beds and a bathroom) and tent and full-hookup RV sites. The campground was beautiful and my kids had a blast walking around all the buildings (hall, chapel, cabins/dorms) and on baseball field, disc golf course, and basketball court! There’s also a pool, but it was closed for the season. They’re open year-round, so we might return for a snow visit! The hosts were nice, the rates are affordable, and there is cell service (ATT) and WiFi if you don’t want to unplug completely.

    I feel like I should note the owners are new and not the ones who were there for the review below mine. They’ve done a lot of work to better the campsite!


Guide to Angels

Cabin camping sites around Angels, California serve as access points to the Sierra Nevada foothills region. Located between 1,500 and 3,000 feet elevation, the area experiences hot, dry summers with temperatures frequently reaching 90°F and mild winters with occasional snow at higher elevations. Access roads to most cabin facilities remain open year-round with occasional winter closures after heavy precipitation.

What to do

Swimming and water activities: The man-made swimming pond at Lake Amador Resort has features specifically designed for children. "The water hole has a fun slide, which is all kept nice and clean with tables you can sit at. I would recommend a pop up tent for shade if you go to the water hole," notes a visitor at Lake Amador Resort.

Wildlife viewing: Deer and turkey sightings are common at cabin sites throughout the region. A camper at North Grove Campground reported, "Bear came through our camp one night hit the Bear box and walked off. Rangers were friendly and very informative about the area." Cabins at Calaveras Big Trees State Park offer structured ranger programs about local wildlife.

Disc golf course access: Multiple disc golf courses exist near cabin rentals in the region. Lake Amador offers multiple course options within walking distance of accommodations. "As disc golfers, of course we love camping here, having 3 courses to choose from. But there is something for everyone in the family here," mentions a Lake Amador visitor.

What campers like

Off-season flexibility: Many cabin sites maintain year-round operations with reduced winter rates. "We used the spot to not be in the snow but make the trip up to Iron Mountain Sno-Park... a 45 minute drive," explains a winter visitor to Gold Country Campground Resort, highlighting the cabin advantage during colder months.

Lakefront settings: Direct water access ranks highly in visitor reviews. "We stayed in a tent camp site for 2 nights. We were given an RV Slab camping site... a 20ft from the lake. It was a meteor shower night and it was amazing," notes a Lake Tulloch RV Campground visitor describing lake proximity.

Swimming facilities: Dedicated pools and water features supplement natural water bodies. "The tent sites have a large covered area for shade and the park has a pool for a refreshing little swim," mentions a review from Angels Camp Campground and RV, highlighting additional water recreation options beyond lakes and rivers.

What you should know

Winter operating status: Seasonal closures affect some but not all cabin sites. Pinecrest Campground remains closed during winter months while others maintain limited operations. "The campground is open seasonally during spring, summer and fall due to the snow in winter," explains a visitor to Pinecrest Campground.

Cell service limitations: Connectivity varies significantly by location. "No cell service and the 'pay WIFI' did not work for us... but there is complimentary WiFi at the laundry to check in on things that works just fine," reports a camper at Thousand Trails Yosemite Lakes, noting connectivity workarounds.

Water quality issues: Some facilities experience seasonal water quality fluctuations. "The water that was coming out of all the faucets, was red and brown. People weren't allowed to shower that night," reported one Lake Tulloch visitor during a period of water system maintenance.

Tips for camping with families

Entertainment options: Scheduled activities enhance cabin stays for younger visitors. "There's a community outdoors kitchen with stove and sink. Small hiking trail that had some horse nearby that cam and said hi to us," notes a visitor about family-friendly features at Angels Camp.

Playground amenities: Multiple sites offer dedicated play structures. "There is also a old school playground for the kids. The staff is super friendly and always there to help," mentions a Lake Amador visitor describing their family experience.

Educational programming: Ranger-led activities provide structured learning opportunities. "Great visitor center and junior ranger program, and swimming in the Stanislaus river (cold but refreshing!!)," explains a visitor to Three Links Camp, which maintains educational facilities alongside cabin accommodations.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: RV-specific cabin sites offer different advantages than general cabins. "East side of CG seems to accommodate more for families with kids while west side is better for RVs. Most RV sites have full hookups and are pull throughs," advises an Angels Camp RV visitor, highlighting the section differences.

Seasonal pest management: Insect populations affect outdoor cooking and dining. "The only and biggest downfall was the meat bees. Absolutely ruined the trip... Recommend bringing nets and tents to eat under," warns a Gold Country Campground visitor regarding summer visits with food.

Campsite modifications: Shade structures become essential during summer stays. "We noted that the sites were very close together with no privacy, but that was ok since there were few people there," mentions a Lake Amador visitor about improvising comfort during peak sun periods.
