    Millard Trail Campground

    Great campground for hiking/biking

    Cool drive to get to the campground. You drive up and down these hilly roads up the mountain to get there. Once there, there's a parking lot that fits about 20 cars. There's about 100 yd hike to the campsites. There's a road that leads to the campsite but it's been blocked off. Only the campsite managers use that road so it's not accessible by RV, just tents. A campsite manager stays in a little trailer overnight so if there's any problems there's somebody there you can go to and ask for help. There's about six campsites and their first come first serve, no reservations. I went during the week and was the only one camping. This place is heavily used for day camping and hiking. There's not a lot of privacy because there's always lots of people passing by who are hiking and biking. You can stay overnight which I did and everything was fine but there's not a lot of privacy. The next day as I was leaving there was another guy sitting up his tent. I bet on the weekends they can fill up pretty fast. It's in Bear country so they provide food storage for each campsite also trash containers too. Each side has a picnic bench and a fire pit. The fire ban has been lifted so you can have a fire. Each fire pit had wood left at it so you didn't have to go searching for campfirewood. Bathrooms included male and female toilets but no showers or water. There's a creek that runs through the campground which makes it very pretty. I saw two to three cabins along the outskirts of the campground that I assume were for rentals. There was one family at one of the cabins the night I stayed. About a 20 minute hike and you can end up at a waterfall which is very pretty. But there are several trails to take for hiking and biking and I saw lots of people doing that. Overall a good campsite four stars. Would have been five stars if they had showers and running water. I didn't see any bears although there was an animal outside my tent at one point in the night I could hear him nosing around. So it's important to keep all of your food and anything with any kind of smell in the bear boxes

    Ventura Ranch KOA

    Fun place for young kids!

    We recently stayed here, for the 1st time, last week. We decided to leave the travel trailer at home, and change it up! We stayed the 1st in a large teepee. It had beds for a total of six people. It was hot in the daytime, and got really cold at night, so we switched to a Glamping tent. The Glamping tent was nice! It had a very confortable queen bed, 2 lamps, a fan, a heater, a mini fridge and a microwave. It also had a futon type couch that made into a bed. Loved the Glamping tent.

    Only downfall was, that the place does not enforce it quiet time rules. 10pm to 8 am. Late night loud groups, carrying on until 2 in the morning, loud obnoxious kids screaming at 6:15 in the morning...😩they have many beautiful Peafowl, and they can be loud too, but I only heard them once. The place has very nice tiled showers, with good water pressure, clean bathrooms, a big beautiful pool, but it was closed for the season.

    There are fire pits throughout the 76 acre park, it was nice having a campfire, since so many places don’t allow them anymore...they have a very large jumping pillow for kiddos, my 6 year had a blast playing on it. They also have a zip line, but it was damaged in the large fire last year, and is being fixed currently. There is a stream that runs thru the property, it was fun to explore. They have a rock climbing wall, that is brought out on holiday weekends.

    Lots of fun activities for kids, like crafts, making your own rocket to launch, etc. It is not the place to come, if you want a quiet, mellow place to read a book! It is busy, and loud. They do not have any laundry facilities, nor do they have a little store. The prices on everything are going up 10% on everything, next year. This means that most campsites with full hook-ups with be $ 71 a night, ( not bad ) but the large teepees will cost about $ 200 a night, and the Glamping tents, about $ 180 a night.

    You can buy a KOA discount card, for just $ 30 bucks, and it gets you 10% off, each stay for a year. Valid at all KOAs in America, and some in Australia! We had a good time, and plan to go back in the summer next year. Hopefully, with our travel trailer, it will be less loud 😉

    Camp Comfort Park

    Great Stay!

    At first, we thought it was a tad pricey but after you realize what all you’re paying for ya wonderful!

    We had an RV, two cars. and a tent and they allowed us to use one spot, for $30 a night! Which is pretty rare!

    SUPER fast wifi(if that’s your thing, we were here for a little under two weeks, so it was nice!), electric hookups, picnic table and fire pit! AMAZING bathrooms and coin showers as well as coin laundry!

    The ADORABLE town of Ojai is a quick 5 min drive up the road with anything you could ever want! The camp host is an amazing older guy, who’s incredibly friendly and takes pride in this campground!

    They lock the gates at night (you can still get in and out!) so you feel safe, they allow pets, and even though it’s buy a road you don’t hear any noise at night!

    Perk (or maybe not a perk if you’re not into it), it’s one of the most haunted campgrounds in the US!

    Thousand Trails Soledad Canyon

    A "resort"? No. A campground? Yes.

    Very large park for RV, cabin and tent camping. As it's listed as a "resort", we figured it would be pretty upscale. Disappointment upon our arrival. Floods have been in the area and much of the sites were closed and being cleaned?? The road closest to our site was washed away (from earlier reviews it's been months), so a long jog or drive around the perimeter to get us to the pool, laundry and hot tub…speaking of which, the pool, hot tub and laundry facilities all needed attention. You could actually see people's footprints (bottom of pool and on pool and hot tub entry steps)…that much sand, dirt, etc…I didn't venture in. When we arrived, we started driving around to find the best site for our rig. We're a 32ft class A w/20ft enclosed cargo trailer tow. So, all in all about 55ft. Well, that wasn't easy. Most of the park's electric and some sewer connections didn't exist or were "down" for repair. We have yet to actually SEE someone working on these issues. We are currently here and checked in for a two-week stay. After some boon docking prior to our arrival, we wanted all the bells and whistles the park boasted they had. Took us just over THREE HOURS to find a decent spot. Many levels to this park and most didn't have a decent WiFi (we have our own router) signal. Some sites had dumpsters blocking them from being a true "pull-thru". That left us with about two areas to choose from. It's dusty, dirty, and, really, not ready to be called a "resort"….more rustic than we'd been looking for or what website photos showed. We would not recommend this "resort" to anyone. Several folks with dogs they let simply sit outside and bark, poo, etc….strict rules against that, in most all resorts we've ever visited. Unless you plan on tenting, cabin or what have you, it's not worth it. Very disappointing! :(

    Ventura Beach RV Resort

    Ocean view!

    Beautiful place. Pool, hot tub, laundry, people friendly, picnic tables, fire rings and green grass every paved site. Buttt...266.00 2 nights! Sprinklers go on at midnight and spray all over the RV 2025 just had detailed and arrived late so we had things on the picnic table. Have to wear wristbands. Hwy loud. And understandable that the beaches are gone from past storms flooding and fires. Overall it's a Beautiful place if you have money to throw away but have a safe locked down clean Beautifully maintained Park. You can't even use the grass next to the site lol We will be back hoping my hometown beaches will be getting back to pretty again. And blessed we have the money.

    Ventura Ranch KOA

    Nice Getaway!

    Quiet and nice 2-day stay. Alexi from reception was super nice and courteous. We couldn’t be more grateful to her! Our lot was secluded, private and close to the entrance/exit. The only thing was the unlevel ground we were on. Our RV was a simple 30’ rental without any leveling. Many peacock’s roam around the premises and they can be very intrusive! Playgrounds, zip lining and a massive bounce pad were all on site. Make sure you hike down to the creek!


Guide to Calabasas

Cabin accommodations in the San Gabriel Mountains area provide camping options with greater protection from elements compared to tent camping. Most cabins near Calabasas require advance booking, especially during peak summer months when temperatures typically range between 75-90°F. Located at elevations between 1,000-5,000 feet, these facilities offer varying levels of seclusion and proximity to outdoor recreation.

What to do

Hike to seasonal waterfalls: Crystal Lake Recreation Area features multiple trail systems with varying difficulty levels. A visitor noted, "There are several hiking trails here that are well used and well maintained. This is a great campground near the city. Due to lack of rainfall and snow melt the lake is almost dry."

Wildlife observation: Point Mugu Recreation Facility offers opportunities to spot local fauna in their natural habitat. One camper reported, "Beautiful Beach! Great place to go fishing, watch Sea Lions and Birds. Walking my dog on the beach. Watching the sun rise and beautiful sunsets."

Obstacle courses and recreation: At Ventura Ranch KOA, families can enjoy structured activities beyond standard camping. A review mentioned, "This KOA site was great. You can either tent camp or RV. I tent camp and the sites were clean and spacious. Great shaded areas. Lots of trails and activities for both kids and adults."

What campers like

Private cabin settings: The Tiny Tiki Retro Hideaway offers seclusion with basic amenities. One reviewer stated, "Amazing spot and stunning views."

Quick access from urban areas: Millard Trail Campground provides cabin options close to city centers. A camper explained, "This campground is a very short drive from Pasadena, CA, and in fact there are some rustic homes adjacent to the campground. Parking is about 150 yards away, down a hill, so be prepared to haul your gear."

Extended stay options: Some locations accommodate longer visits for those needing extended cabin rentals. A camper at Valencia Travel Village mentioned, "This was a great stop over for a week. A little remote and you have to drive to the nearest town(s), but clean grounds and nice site. Very easy to book online."

What you should know

Seasonal considerations: Winter temperatures can drop significantly at higher elevations. A reviewer at Crystal Lake Recreation Area noted, "Stayed here two nights in August, it was nice and cool a good break from the heat."

Wildlife interactions: Several cabin camping locations have resident wildlife that may interact with campers. At Ventura Ranch KOA, a reviewer observed, "Peacocks live there! They roost in the trees and just mingle with the campers without a care in the world."

Security concerns: Some locations require additional security precautions. A Millard Trail Campground visitor warned, "Make sure to leave your car doors unlocked, and nothing of value inside. You'd rather have someone root through your car and walk away empty handed than have a window broken and items stolen."

Tips for camping with families

Choose activity-rich locations: Camps with organized programs keep children engaged. A Point Mugu Recreation Facility visitor shared, "Lots of beach equipment; Tents, coolers, cook stoves...Surfing gear and bikes to rent. Indoor giant TV to watch and gather with other patrons inside the MWR."

Verify site spacing: Some campgrounds offer more room between cabins than others. A visitor to Crystal Lake noted, "There are lots of spacious camping sites, clean bathrooms, running water, numerous shade trees, and a cafe/store for all the things you forgot or for a ice cream treat on a hot day!"

Consider noise factors: Proximity to transportation corridors affects cabin camping experience. At Acton KOA, a camper reported, "The catch is, the KOA is stationed between a busy road and a railroad... so all night you end up hearing the train blasting its horn and come morning, you're woken up by the constant influx of cars."

Tips from RVers

Water and hookup variations: Cabin camping near Calabasas offers various utility connection options. A visitor to Thousand Trails Soledad Canyon advised, "Great TT park near LA. Park is a large TT resort with recently remolded lodge in 2019. The area appears to be a flash flood area with heavy rains."

Seasonal closures: Facility availability changes throughout the year. One camper mentioned, "They have a big beautiful pool, but it was closed for the season."

Access considerations: Some cabin sites require preparation for terrain. A camper noted, "The spots are all paved with most having all the hookups but it is in need of updates. You can't beat the location though."
