Best Glamping near Calico, CA

Barstow is a good mileage stop between Las Vegas and SoCal. The campgrounds are pretty quiet with only a little road noise (surprisingly, due to its proximity to the highway) and very easy to access. The Sites aren’t very private, being so close together but there are small bushes that offer some semblance of separation. The gravel pads are a bit different than most KOAs and don’t create that fine white dust, which is a plus. The full hookups worked well but there is no Wi-Fi and all amenities were closed aside from laundry and bathrooms (neither that we used). Pool was closed due to construction on it. The town doesn’t offer much in the way of amenities. You can grab some food at the diner across the street or head to the Calico Ghost Town 3 miles up The road. The biggest draw here is the electricity to keep your A/C running in the high temps.

A great spot that we can’t wait to go back and spend a couple of days at. The amenities at this KOA are great. Pool...playground...horseshoes...archery range...etc.

Just up the road too is the Calico western ghost town.

They have some decent shaded areas that made it look like just about every spot would be a good one.

We had a spot in the front with a patio and everything. It was very nice except for the sewer drain being at the front end of the site (I had to put an extension on my poop pipe)...the other down side of being in the front is the traffic noise from the highway...I could hear it all night.

Last bit — the staff is very responsive and helpful. The sewage pipe had a back up in it (thankfully learned this with grey water!). The staff got out there and foxed it right away. The only other weird thing was my 30AMP power surge protector said polarity was reversed on the L1 or L2...but everything worked fine.

We stayed here for four nights and actually enjoyed it in spite of the heat during the afternoon hours.  Our space was on the end so we had a lot of privacy but near the I-40.  That didn't bother us but it might bother those who are looking for total quiet.  The nights were fantastic!!  The lakes here give it a nice feel since it's in the Mojave desert between Barstow and Ludlow California.  The staff was VERY friendly and helpful.  The best part for me was the pool which was clean and cool.

We were driving thru and decited to spend the night, they have all the nice things in the store, pool, quite place

Great pass through campground. They have Archery, a pool, and a store. There are restaurants near the campground. The bathrooms were just ok.

All the great KOA perks. Camp Store. Full hookups. A refreshing pool.

We decided to stop here that the kids can play on the playground and jumping pad. The playground is 100ft from the Interstate 15. Some parts are dangerous to play, especially the swing. That needs absolutely immediate maintenance. The jumping pad is only allowed to use if the parents sign a waiver. At the morning we got the information it’s only open between 3-5pm. At 3pm it wasn’t inflated and we got the answer it’s closed due to winter. We have currently 65 degrees by sky clear no wind. The bathrooms are older, but clean and ok. The spots itself are mostly pull through and with gravel. So it was the worst experience for a KOA Campground. If you want that your kids playing on an unsafe playground next to the freeway you are right here.

Passed through for a night. Looked to be an average KOA - several cute things to do. The park itself is basically a gravel lot but they have done some nice work with trees and shrubs to make it seem less so. Unfortunately it is extremely close to I-15 and the traffic on 15 never stops. It made for a rough night’s sleep. We’ll find somewhere else to stay next time.

I love places that are child friendly because it shows when people truly care for others and this place sure does! Yes, it's a hole in the wall but what did you expect Barstow to be>??? This RV spot however is a KAO and has tons of family-friendly things to do so no one will be bored. Yes it's parallel to the major free way but I mean it's well kept and plenty of things to do. For sure a Good Spot for a day or two

Great place for a stop over. Level sites.

It was a typical KOA. Clean bathrooms and showers. Nice store. The pool was awesome. It was graveled so low dirt and dust. It was a 106 so there wasn’t much to do. The cable was good and WiFi was good.

We needed a place to stay for our last 2 nights on the road before going home after the place we reserved was not a good fit for our 40 ft Allegro Bus. We called and they had a perfect spot for us for the 2 days. It's clean and quiet here and right off the freeway. We couldn't hear the freeway from our RV. We were so glad we found the KOA. Pull throughs that fit our 40ft plus tow. There's gravel but flat so leveling isn't difficult with the blocks. Plenty of room, some spots with trees and some bushes. Our 4 slide outs fit with no problem.

Road noise and maintenance people not really maintenance people. Overpriced tiny store.

This is over priced, maintenance nonexistent, dirty, park. Doesn't meet KOA standards in my eyes? Splash and Dash Stop

OK for one night ... kinda dirty

I stopped here for two nights to wait out some bad weather that  prevented me from going from point A to point B. It was nice  to be able to capitalize on the opportunity to take a shower, do some laundry and top off propane. Not so nice: the camp store was dismally stocked, half the laundry machines were out of service, including all of the large machines, the main restrooms and showers at the front of the site were well cared for, up to usual KOA standards, however the smaller restroom unit in the rear of the property was substandard. Stayed in site #61. This site is well shaded but forget about having good solar panel exposure.

Pretty standard KOA, some shade, level gravel sites with useable WiFi. Bathhouse was adequate, updated and clean. Convenient to Routes 15, 40 and 66.

Clean facilities and fit the need for the night. The interstate is loud, so it did impact a good nights sleep. Over all, a cute little KOA

Clean. Has bathrooms and laundry

I had to change my reservation three times, and the staff was incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to give us the easiest possible stay. The campground itself was reasonably clean with a gorgeous view of the desert and mountains. Sites laid out well and most are pull through and accommodate big rigs. Pool, laundry, general store, showers and lavatories. They did not however have the shuttle to the silver mine as advertised (ended with Covid) and the Enterprise rental in Barstow does not “pick you up“ and were rude besides.

Clean and well maintained. Friendly service. Awesome pool! Just a little pricey...$71
