Best RV Parks & Resorts near Anza, CA

Several RV parks operate near Anza, California with varying amenity levels and accessibility options. Golden Village Palms RV Resort in Hemet provides full hookups including electric, sewer, and water connections for motorhomes and travel trailers, along with 50-amp service for larger vehicles. Palm Springs Oasis RV Resort features concrete pads and accommodates big rig RVs with pull-through sites available. Thousand Trails Idyllwild maintains year-round operations with sites designed for larger recreational vehicles, though spacing between neighboring units can be limited in certain sections. Emerald Desert RV Resort offers premium sites with expanded spacing and grassy areas between concrete pads. "The spots were very tight and there was not any grass for our dogs," noted one visitor about Palm Springs Oasis.

Seasonal availability varies significantly between mountain and desert RV locations. Winter access to higher elevation parks like Idyllwild may require preparation for snow conditions, while desert facilities experience highest demand from late fall through spring. Most parks maintain on-site dump stations, though Rancho Jurupa RV Park stands out with sanitary facilities receiving positive mentions. Cell service remains reliable at desert locations but becomes spotty in mountain terrain. Pet policies differ between facilities, with most allowing dogs but enforcing leash requirements and designated pet areas. Travelers should note train noise impacts several Palm Springs area parks, particularly those positioned near tracks running parallel to Interstate 10. Advance reservations are essential during peak winter months when snowbird travelers fill many premium spots.

    Pechanga RV Resort

    This Is A Resort With All Amenities

    I spent a few nights using my Passport America discount at Pechanga RV Resort. I really liked it there. This is now one of my favorite RV resorts in California except for the showers. It is clean, well-maintained, concrete, level pads, full hookups, 168 site spaces, 20-30-50 amp power, 5 luxury spaces that The park itself is clean, well-maintained, concrete, level pads, full hookups, 168 site spaces, 20-30-50 amp power, 5 luxury spaces that is fenced in with gazebo, and picnic tables. First of all, it is part of the Casino with entertainment and restaurants. This casino reminds me of the Vegas casinos and now is under construction to make it a real Vegas Style Resort. It’s going to be finished sometimes in 2017. 

    The RV resort itself has a nice heated pool, Jacuzzi, ping pong table. They also have a golf club which could be important for some. One thing I hated is the showers. The RV resort shower has a timer set to 25 seconds and the showerhead is not able to stand upright. So you basically have to hold the shower in one hand and keep pressing the timer every 25 seconds. It’s December, it’s cold in the shower, especially because the water keeps shutting off. You end up standing soaking wet putting soap on yourself in the cold. 

    I wonder if the hotel rooms have timer on the showers as well. The person who came up with this idea should take showers in there each night. It pet-friendly resort, they also have an area for dogs. If you heading to the casino, they have a shuttle service 24/7 which picks ups from and drop-offs to and from your space. You have to call a number and they are there to pick you up in minutes. 

    About the WiFi! It’s the best WiFi ever in any parks I’ve so far visited! I wasn’t even close to the main building and had a great reception. I am able to use my Roku to watch Netflix and can use my laptop as well for work. I didn’t even need my Sprint or Verizon, but both work fine. Across the street, there is a 2-mile bike/walk trail. Using this and riding around the nice neighborhoods it was a fun way to get some exercise.

    Thousand Trails Palm Springs

    Lovely TT RV Resort!!!

    The is a beautiful Thousand Trails RV Resort in Palm Springs, California! The park is large, very spacious and so clean! The gorgeous Palm trees are a little bit of a parking hazard, but they were here before we were! 😊 And besides, they are so beautiful to look at every day. The park feels like a day on beach with white sand to park on in most spaces, towering Palm trees, and brightly colored tropical flowers. What a treat in the winter! We are here in November and December and daytime high’s are in the low 80’s. The park is split in half with one side 30 amp FHU and the other half 50 amp FHU. For TT members, there is not an additional charge for 50 amp. Quite a deal! There is plenty of room to get out and walk in this park, along with a nice dog park, playground, billiards room, swimming pool and spa, horseshoes, 8 pickle ball courts, many laundry rooms and restrooms, and community recreation room. The surrounding mountains ranges are pretty amazing, too. This park is close to it all in the Palm Springs area and everything is within a short drive. Joshua Tree National Park and the Salton Sea is just over a half hour away. The Thousand Trails Palm Springs RV Resort is perfect and we will definitely be visiting again!

    Shadow Hills RV Resort

    Urban Glamping during Covid

    Shadow Hills RV Resort is a stellar urban RV resort with all the amenities. Full hookups, daily trash pickups at each site, cable tv, large level pads with privacy hedge, small dog parks scattered throughout, gated security, nice restrooms w/ showers (free). We were visiting family who were just a short bike ride away. Can be extremely windy here. Desert X environmental art installations are nearby.

    Palm Canyon Hotel & RV Resort

    Family Friendly Borrego Springs full with hookups

    A nice little (120 spaces or so) full hookup (30 and 50 amp) campground.  We paid $289 for 5 nights. Clean, well maintained and full of families.  Very close to downtown and Anza-Borrego Visitor Center.  Spaces are good size, no problems fitting our 30' toy hauler towed by F250, and the park is well laid out and easy to drive. Checkin was fast and easy.  There are full time residents, but they are in a different section.  We used it as a base for hiking and off-roading at Octotillo Wells (both recommended,but bring as much water as you  can carry). The property has an old west theme, and there is also a hotel , laundromat and restaurant. If you have never visited this part of California, be advised that the wind here can be VERY intense, especially at night.  Also note that Borrego Springs is a dark sky community, so please be respectful and remember to look up and enjoy the stars.

    Thousand Trails Palm Springs

    Concrete Condo Camping

    A well managed, well-kept park. Plenty of 50-amp sites, which usually means BIG rigs, are all back-in. The mature date palms and tight sites makes parking and manuevering diffecult for big rigs. Very lively community; lots of people out, kid playing. Proximity to Interstate 10 and railroad tracks makes it a bit noisy. But, it's NOT too bad. Plenty of TV stations along with 5G cell service. It's not in the rules so, I believe I'm allowed to wash my rig.

    Pineknot

    Pineknot Campground, Big Bear Lake, Ca

    A bit challenging to locate via Google Maps... Just go up (south) Summit Blvd, when you get to the parking lot of the ski resort, veer towards the left, and just past a concrete wall, you'll see the little Pineknot Campground sign attached to an aluminium pole. The campground is very cozy, countless tall pine trees, clean bathrooms, clean sites, water from taps, no hookups, and not for big rigs. The hosts are friendly, but strict! No generators from 8 pm to 8 am, a $3000 fine if your campfire is left unattended, and no rowdy obnoxious behavior is tolerated! We appreciated the rules, and thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful, quiet, deep in the woods getaway!!

    Paradise By The Sea RV Resort

    Amazing RV Resort Near Beach

    A nicely appointed RV resort in downtown Oceanside with an awesome staff. Pull-through and back-in, full hookup spots available. Cable, wi-fi, a clubhouse with TV and PlayStation for the kids, pool table, games to check out, and a small swimming pool and hot tub. There are also outdoor community areas with ping-pong, bean-bag toss, grills, and other activities.

    The resort is only a 5- minute walk to the beach and not far from Oceanside restaurants and shops. While it’s a tad spendy, you really do get a lot for your money with a great near beach location.

    Catalina Spa and RV Resort

    Nice place, good value for money

    Great for long term RV camping with hookups. They have nice hot springs pools, decent cell signal, and reasonable prices for full hookups. Camp sites are on the small side so neighbors are close, but at least they put plants in between to give you a little privacy.


Guide to Anza

RV camping near Anza, California provides access to both mountain and desert environments with elevations ranging from 2,000 to 7,000 feet across the region. Campgrounds in this area experience significant temperature variations between seasons, with mountain locations averaging 30°F cooler than desert facilities during summer months. Cell service quality varies dramatically based on terrain, with reliable coverage in valley locations but limited connectivity in mountainous areas.

What to do

Explore Joshua Tree National Park: Located about 45 minutes from Desert Hot Springs campgrounds, the park offers unique desert landscapes with distinctive rock formations. "We spent 2 weeks here. The weekly rate is much better than daily. It is a nice resort with clean amenities. The gym was great and the pool was not busy which made it a nice place to work from," notes a visitor at Emerald Desert RV Resort.

Visit local museums: The Idyllwild area features several small museums and art galleries within a 15-minute drive from mountain campgrounds. "We tent camped 3 days 2 nights during Memorial weekend with 3 other families. We really enjoyed the drive up Idylwild, beautiful scenery," shares a camper from Thousand Trails Idyllwild.

Try wine tasting: Temecula Valley wineries are accessible within 20 minutes of some western campgrounds. "Nice place right off I15. Quiet clean very friendly staff... Would visit again," writes a visitor at Escondido RV Resort, which offers convenient access to wine country.

What campers like

Mineral hot springs: Natural hot mineral pools offer therapeutic relaxation with temperatures ranging from 90-104°F. "Upper section is exposed to the frequent high winds. Lower section is blocked by trees and bushes which block you from your neighbors. Lower mineral pool is more adult friendly," notes a camper at Catalina Spa and RV Resort.

Well-maintained facilities: Many parks feature recently renovated bathrooms, laundry facilities and recreation areas. "Large concrete pads, easy backing in and hooking up. Lots of grass, great place to camp in groups," shares a visitor at Rancho Jurupa RV Park.

Family activities: On-site amenities often include swimming pools, shuffleboard, pickleball courts and mini-golf courses. "We enjoyed the pool, watching the ducks in the pond, and the kids loved the basketball court. Some parts closed on certain days- store, jacuzzi, community room," mentions a camper from Thousand Trails Wilderness Lakes RV Resort.

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Several mountain campgrounds operate with limited capacity during winter months due to snow conditions. "So far love this place. Second time here and we're enjoying it. It's hot but a fire haze has blocked the sun a bit also the water pad is so fun even for grown ups," comments a guest at Rancho Jurupa RV Park regarding summer conditions.

Wind conditions: Desert locations frequently experience high winds, particularly in spring months. "Beautiful place with hot spring pools. Lots of amenities. Close to downtown Palm Springs. Only issue is it is terribly windy most of the time," notes a visitor about Catalina Spa and RV Resort.

Limited connectivity: Mountain campgrounds often have minimal cell service and limited WiFi. "Nice folks and a very pretty, well kept site. Limited or no internet service, no cell phone service - so if you need to contact friends or family think about these facts. If you have kids that need to get off their tablets/phones - stay here," shares a camper from Tucalota Springs RV Resort.

Tips for camping with families

Look for dedicated play areas: Some resorts maintain playground equipment and organized activities specifically for children. "This place has a great weekly rate ($35 per night) and great amenities. We got a site across from the laundry/pool/bathroom which was also not far from the dog park," notes a visitor at Catalina Spa and RV Resort.

Consider splash pads during summer: Water features provide relief during hot weather conditions. "Very well maintained and clean campsites! Splash pad, park, mini golf great amenities. Nice staff!" shares a Rancho Jurupa RV Park camper.

Avoid peak weekends: Family-oriented campgrounds become significantly busier and noisier Friday through Sunday. "Geese Poop!! My biggest complaint with this resort is the geese, which apparently are always there, are loud and their poop is everywhere. The sites are also really packed in. What I did like is the pool, it was clean and plenty of room," mentions a visitor from Thousand Trails Wilderness Lakes RV Resort.

Tips from RVers

Prepare for tight spaces: Many parks have narrow access roads with trees or obstacles. "Being reasonably close to our home base, we frequent this park with the family. Major grocery and shopping establishments are nearby, with Target directly across the street, In-n-Out, local parks, and the like," notes a camper at Golden Village Palms RV Resort.

Bring extra water hose length: Some full-hookup sites have connections placed at inconvenient distances. "We upgraded to the luxury site which meant that the spacing between sites was a bit greater and we had a lovely patch of green grass between us and our neighbors. We have a very small trailer, so our only issue was the distance from our sewer connection and the resort's," shares an Emerald Desert RV Resort visitor.

Check electrical capacity requirements: Many parks offer limited 50-amp sites that fill quickly. "Came in for a convention in Ontario, better alternative than Fairplex park. Very spacious and good for big rigs. LOTS of activities for families (splash pad). Would visit again. 50⚡️ 💧👍. There's a dump station, but a couple spots with dump but they were always booked," explains a camper from Rancho Jurupa RV Park.
