    Anaheim RV Park - PERMANENTLY CLOSED

    Disney Camping - Clean, Pool, Very Nice Restrooms/Showers

    Anaheim RV Resort is close to Disney and is on the Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART) bus route. They have full hook up sites and room for large rigs - back-in and pull through. They are very pet friendly and even have a dog walking/feeding service (for an extra fee). There is a small pool and hot tub. The restrooms/showers and newly remodeled and very nice! Sites are all level and fairly large. We've stayed here 4 times and will be back again!

    Hidden Gem

    I loved this place, this hidden gem is located in the in the middle of the city, with the feel of the outdoor. Lots of trees, biking and hiking trails, fishing area, beautiful views, very peaceful, family friendly, pet friendly, the C9 RV spot was very spacious, I also liked the A & B area. Not every site has a fire pit. Definitely coming back again.

    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.

    Bolsa Chica State Beach Campground

    Bolsa Chica State Beach

    The 4 stars is primarily for location. This is essentially a parking lot with power and water. We had a beach front space (B035) with a decent sized palm tree. The only one I really saw. The spaces aren’t huge so if you have a big rig or large trailer it will be tight. Most trailers parked their tow vehicle perpendicular to the space and some barely fit. There is no privacy, the small concrete area is shared with your neighbors as is the entrance to the beach side. People watching at the boardwalk is amazing. There is live music at the beach bars nearby which was cool. Definitely bring bike. There isn’t a lot within walking distance but downtown Huntington Beach and the pier is just a couple miles away.

    Waterfront RV Park

    Great place by the beach

    Your not on the beach but literally on the other side of pacific coast highway you are there. They have smaller options for travel trailers with power hook ups only and pull through and back in sites available with full hook ups. They have a great pool, maintained laundry rooms bathrooms and showers separated by men and woman for that privacy you need. Overall an incredible rv park and very impressed by it being well kept and clean. Not to mention close to the beach

    Mountain Lakes Resort - Membership Campground

    Great family friendly place

    My wife and I have been coming up here for years. We used to use her parents fifth wheel or use a cabin but recently purchased our own travel trailer. Now we come up here with our kids and I can’t say enough about how family friendly it is.

    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.

    Ronald W. Caspers Wilderness Park

    One of the Best County Parks you will find

    This is a great park in Southern Orange County. I have tent camped here for years with my kids in the Live Oak campground and never had a bad experience. There are hiking trails everywhere with lots of wildlife to watch. I switched to a travel trailer several years ago and now use Ortega Flats campground. The sites are big and well spaced, with 30 amp electric. The water is off for the time being. The dump station is very close by and easy to access.


Guide to Costa Mesa

Costa Mesa camping opportunities feature mild year-round temperatures averaging 60-75°F with only 13 inches of annual rainfall. Most RV parks in the area are situated on paved surfaces with minimal natural vegetation. Several locations operate with seasonal restrictions due to summer beach parking demands.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: At Rancho Jurupa RV Park in Riverside, campers can enjoy fishing for catfish in a small, tree-shaded lake. "Fishing for catfish in the little lake which is shaded with trees and plenty of tables to picnic by the lake," notes a visitor to Rancho Jurupa RV Park.

Waterfront activities: Newport Dunes RV Resort provides water recreation with inflatable obstacles in the lagoon. "They have activities for the kids like arts and crafts, an inflatable obstacle course or you can rent paddle boards or watch a movie on the beach," shares a camper at Newport Dunes RV Resort.

Biking trails: Golden Shore RV Resort offers convenient access to beach biking paths. "Great Long Beach location, a nice bike ride along the beach to Naples and the Queen Mary," mentions a visitor. The Santa Ana River Trail near Orangeland RV Park connects the beach to the San Bernardino Mountains for extended cycling opportunities.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Campers consistently praise the maintenance at many Costa Mesa area RV parks. "Very well maintained and clean campsites! Splash pad, park, mini golf great amenities," reports a reviewer at Rancho Jurupa Park. Another camper at Golden Shore RV Resort noted, "The grounds are kept in excellent condition - very clean and secure. The pool, showers, bathrooms are all spotless."

Family amenities: Many parks offer recreational facilities beyond basic camping. At Orangeland RV Park, campers enjoy "Heated pool, spa was hot. Nice little store with everything you need. Staff was very friendly and helpful." Another visitor highlights, "Free citrus picking! Pool, mini golf on site."

Urban convenience: RV parks near Costa Mesa provide proximity to attractions and services. "Located in the back bay of Newport Harbor ND has it all. This place is super clean and super accommodating... Bike trails for the kids and Balboa Island is just right down the way," states a visitor about Newport Dunes. Another camper at Canyon RV Park shares, "I have been here for a few months and I love it here. It's not only in the middle of a nature preserve but you're also in the middle of a City."

What you should know

Spacing considerations: Many RV parks near Costa Mesa have tight site configurations. "This campground has small sites like most RV parks do, but there was a lot of fun things to do with the kids," notes a camper at Newport Dunes. At Waterfront RV Park, a visitor mentioned, "The site itself is fairly tight. The full hookups were nice and welcomed."

Seasonal availability: Some beachside RV parks operate on limited schedules. Huntington Beach RV Campground "opens back up in October due to the high traffic of summer visitors... Basically a parking lot on the beach that you can stay and enjoy beachfront." This seasonal limitation affects planning during peak summer months.

Security concerns: Several campgrounds report theft issues. "Located in Huntington Beach California. This site is right across the street from the beach. Be careful and aware when staying here. My husband and I had our mountain bikes stolen when sleeping," warns a camper at Waterfront RV Park. At Rancho Jurupa Park, another camper notes, "The ranger said to lock up bikes and be careful leaving out items because a local has been coming in stealing."

Tips for camping with families

Water features: Several parks offer water attractions for children. At Canyon RV Park, "A pool, flushable toilets and hot showers are available to all campers for free." Rancho Jurupa Park provides "a splash water park" and "mini golf" according to visitors, making it ideal for families with young children.

Movie nights: Some RV parks organize evening entertainment. "They had a movie on the beach when we were there, and fun water toys out," shares a Newport Dunes visitor. These organized activities provide structured entertainment beyond standard playground equipment.

Budget considerations: Price points vary significantly between parks. "It was rather expensive though," notes a Newport Dunes camper. More affordable options may include weekday stays or inland locations. "Camping for over 25 years - 140 nights a year and we have never experienced a campground as unprofessional, clueless and arrogant as this one. Their campsite math is completely unacceptable," warns an Anaheim Harbor visitor about unexpected fees.

Tips from RVers

Transportation options: Staying near attractions offers transit advantages. Orangeland RV Park provides convenient access to theme parks: "Anaheim transit makes on-demand stops here to Disneyland as well as Garden Walk... On-demand public transport for $6/person for all-day access." This eliminates parking fees at major attractions.

Noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some locations. Canyon RV Park "is bordered by highways on both sides, and they create noise day and night. They're also clearly visible." Several reviews mention ambient noise levels that may disturb light sleepers or affect site selection.

Utility requirements: Be prepared with correct equipment lengths. At Anaheim Harbor RV Park, "You must have a 25ft sewage hose." The park also has specific vehicle restrictions: "Must be manufactured by a recognized maker or you must provide photos and copy of valid DMV Registration."
