Best RV Parks & Resorts near Cloverdale, CA

Several RV parks dot the Russian River region near Cloverdale, California, offering varied options for motorhome travelers. Thousand Trails Russian River, located directly in Cloverdale, provides year-round RV camping with big-rig friendly sites, 30-amp electrical hookups, water connections, and a sanitary dump station. Just south in Forestville, River Bend Resort features 100 sites with both 50-amp service and full hookups including sewer connections, accommodating larger RVs with pull-through access. Bodega Bay RV Park, though farther west along the coast, maintains highly-rated sites with 50-amp electrical service and full hookup capabilities. "First made the mistake of trying to back in - it turns out these are pull in spots, so make sure if you're not in a pull through that you read the sheet and determine if you should pull in or back in," notes one RV camper about properly positioning at Bodega Bay.

Cell service varies significantly throughout these RV campgrounds, with coastal locations often experiencing spotty coverage. Verizon and T-Mobile reception is generally reliable at Bodega Bay RV Park, with one traveler noting, "I work remote and have had meetings all week. No issues with Verizon or T-mobile Hot spots." Many parks require advance reservations, particularly during summer and fall weekends when occupancy rates peak. Most RV sites in the region welcome pets, though specific restrictions may apply. Dump stations are available at most parks, with some charging additional fees ($7 at Westside Regional Park). RV campers should prepare for coastal weather patterns - morning fog is common year-round, and evening temperatures drop significantly even during summer months, requiring adequate heating systems for overnight comfort.

    Bodega Bay RV Park

    Bodega Bay for a couple days

    Checked in a little later in the day- they had our name and spot on a sheet tacked on the bulletin board at the check-in area-

    Our spot was very close to the entrance – mostly level a little angle downhill so bring some blocks.

    First made the mistake of trying to back in- it turns out these are pull in spots, so make sure if you’re not in a pull through that you read the sheet and determine if you should pull in or back in.

    Fairly quiet on a Saturday night close to town and a very comfortable stay.

    Only electric and water hook ups but 50 amp is really nice and they have a dump here at the park. You can use when you check out.

    When I did have a chance to meet them in the office, they seemed really nice at the front desk, and kind of surprised that we would check in our second vehicle :) maybe most people don’t. ;)

    Porto Bodega Marina & RV Park

    Good spot for power+shower+refresh.

    This was some “glamping” for us. We’re in a van with no consistent onboard power or water, so we do a night or two out and a night at a site with more amenities. This was a perfect stop driving south on the 1 after the previous night remote on the coast and a planned need for StarLink with power source. Park is clean and well-organized, if tight, and the bathrooms are super clean and door-coded, with included hot showers. Right on the marina, fun if you enjoy harbor/boating scenery, and good food within walking distance. No way - that I found - to reserve online, but a phone call at 9am on a Saturday was returned within 10 minutes and got it done. Range of big rigs to camper vans, easy access and enough room to negotiate into spots. Very welcoming, safe, laid back environment.

    Westside Regional Park

    Great views, but close to the neighbors

    First, you stay here for the views. Great views from the first two rows closest to the water. There are very few plantings between spaces. No hook ups at all, but water is available if you fill before you park. Seven dollar dump station. Each campsite has a fire ring and a wooden picnic table and grass. Since there’s no hook ups between the hours of 8 AM and 8 PM, you will always be listening to somebody’s generator running. Always. No privacy at this campground. I did not check out the bathrooms for the campground, but I did look at the bathrooms for the large boat launch area next-door. No showers in that bathroom, but it was clean. A bit spendy for no hookups. Safe. Zero long term campers when I was here. There are no first come first served campsites at this location. All camping spaces had a reserve sign on them, even though the place was about 40% full. Completely dark at night, which was great.

    Letts Lake Campground — Mendocino National Forest

    Dry Campig for 35' RV

    We originally were going to Fouts Creek Campground but it was HOV weekend (Presidents). Lots of dirt bikes and law enforcement. National Forest pulled in officers from surrounding forests and Sheriff Depts.

    With a 35' Class A our options were limited. A Ranger suggested Letts Lake. There is a narrow one lane newly paved road that goes up to Dixie Glade equestrian camp, from there it is dirt. Taking it slow, we made it to Letts Lake and parked in spot 12. It was a tight fit, but we made it.

    There are two additional campgrounds at the opposite end of the lake but they are closed for winter. As there was no water or trash service there was no fee. Typically $5.00)

    The lake is small with no motors allowed but easy to walk around. Pet friendly in fact all but one campsite had at least one dog.  Fire damage to the forest is substantial but new growth is already starting

    Sugarloaf Ridge State Park Campground

    Wooded with a creek, many trails, family friendly in the North Bay.

    The campground at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park offers a range of decent sites. There are certainly some that are better situated than others regarding size, shade, and other amenities--but the entire campground is nice. Well maintained, and located in a State Park that is run by a non-profit "Team Sugarloaf". Sonoma Creek runs along the campground and there is a waterfall a short hike away. There are showers for a quarter per minute, if you want to freshen up after a big hike like to the peak of Bald Mt. Visitor's Center has educational displays, maps, and a variety of items for sale. Ice and fire wood available. Each site has a table and fire pit. Great little get away spot that feels farther in the wilderness than it is at all. Close to Sonoma and Santa Rosa. Year-round camping--beautiful in all seasons.

    There is also an observatory in the park, one Saturday night per month the hold "Star Parties" and for just $2 you can spend the evening looking through great telescopes and learning about space from experts. Kids are free! It is walking distance from the campground. If you have flashlights that have a red night-vision setting, those are recommended to use there--otherwise they'll give you red cellophane to cover your light so that it doesn't interfere with star viewing.

    Lawson's Landing

    beach adjacent fun

    I've camped here about half a dozen times over the years and while each experience has been different, they were all enjoyable and I would easily return again.

    There are a variety of campsites, and they are many - we camp as close to the ocean as possible in the meadow area. There are port-o-potties on site but they're not always super close to your campsite. You typically do have to hike the ocean from the dunes, and while some consider it a light and easy walk, for others it could be difficult. There are other sites closer to the waterfront, but I haven't personally camped there yet and can't testify to the ease.

    The weather is GREAT, and you can usually count on some light wind daily. It's amazing kite weather. The sites are in full-sun, so plan for shading yourself. I suggest a pop-up canopy, and double suggest staking it down.

    We've run out of firewood on occasion and bartered with other campers (some have kindly donated some for the night and we reimburse their wood in the morning). There's a lovely general store and restaurant nearby with delicious clam chowder. There is also a day-area beach, a really cool pier where folks crab, and loads of fishing. Pet friendly, sand dunes where you'll see lots of action, and just a lovely area. Camping is year round, and the weather is typically PERFECT.

    Middle Creek Campground

    Great place for dry camping

    Beautiful location, campground was easily accessible going up Elk Mountain Road. Camped in Site 11, pull through, no hook ups, nice picnic table, grill and fire pit. Vault toilets, no showers. There is potable water close to the campsites. Very quiet during the week, it did get noisier on the weekends, but everyone settled down for the evening.

    Bodega Dunes Campground — Sonoma Coast State Park

    Clean campground

    There is upward of 90 sites, many are for just tents and are on sand with fire pit. I have our travel trailer there and are the site # in the 70's and are on a asphalt pad, which makes it cleaner and level. Down side would be close to a road and traffic during day, but at night very quiet except for fog horn which is no big deal. The beach walks and adventuring the coast and local fair makes it all worth it. Water and dump station available, not at campsites but at entry of park
