  Uvas Pines RV Park

  A slice of heaven in the bay area

  We visited the first week of December 2020.  The staff was helpful and the grounds were well maintained.  Flat easy pull through with full hook-ups.  Definitely in a canyon around the corner from Thousand Trails.  You can see the stars at night and it is a very quiet campground.  We were surprised at all the high-end rigs there, some full-timers.  A nice dog park area and a stroll along the creek - our dog loved it.  They recycle and are very environmentally aware. No pool or playground but lovely nature away from the hustle and bustle of silicon valley.  It is about 6 miles to shopping and many restaurants.  A very easy drive off the highway if you take the Tennant Road exit.

  Uvas Pines RV Park

  Nice place with a great dog park

  This park has mostly long-term residents. It was super quiet, though there was a somewhat noisy road next to us. We were on the first site next to the road, so I suspect it would be a non issue for most of the sites.

  The dog park is extremely well-maintained. Beautiful grass, very nice fence, a bench to sit on, water for your pets and plenty of space to run.

  There a really nice stream to hike along. And underneath a bridge there are bat houses. We went under there at sundown and watched the bats come out. Strongly recommended!

  The lady who runs the place was extremely nice and helpful.

  Full hook-ups and relatively large, gravel sites with some shade. However, I needed to raise one wheel about 5 inches and another 2 to get level.

  Short drive to downtown Morgan hill or Gilroy. And there’s a Camping World as well.

  Gilroy Garlic USA RV Park

  Nice RV Park, Reasonable Rates

  We happened upon this RV Park as a drop in when our other park was not available. What a pleasant surprise! We’ll be making this our go to spot when traveling through the Gilroy area from now on.

  For starters, the staff is wonderful. So friendly. Just an FYI, if they have open spots after the office closes they put out packets for up to 2 pull thru and 2 back in spots for late arrivals without a reservation.

  Pros

  • Great central location!
  • Roomy spaces, by RV park standards.
  • Water, sewer, electric, WiFi, and trash.
  • Propane on-site for purchase.
  • Laundry mat on site. Prices more reasonable than going to a laundry mat off site.
  • Showers and restrooms.
  • Truly dog welcoming, with multiple dog poop baggy bins and a dog run so your best friend can run leash free. They even gave my dog premium dog treats upon arrival. Wow!!
  • A really nice pool.
  • Wide back in spots, with wide roadways. Even a novice RVer can back it up with out concern.
  • This place can accommodate truly large rigs, there were quite a few of them during our visit.
  • There are likely long term rentals, but I couldn’t point them out because all the sites were neat and clean with flowers and landscaping. The park was super quiet.
  • Open, lush grassy area.

  Cons:

  • It’s an RV park, so there is a lot of smooth new concrete and the sites are close together. If you want natural turf and more space, you’ll need to give up the amenities and go to a State Park or Forest.

  Candlestick RV Park

  A homeless shelter

  The streets are lined with homeless living in RVs etc leading up to the RV park and after, it smells like sewage. When arriving I was moved to 3 different sites, all of which I couldn’t fit into. The guy running the park blamed me for not telling him I have a tow vehicle... he did however know the length of my trailer and every spot he put me in wasn’t long enough for the trailer alone. I may have been able to back into the spaces but would’ve been hanging out a bit which I could’ve tried to deal with if it weren’t for the fact that I could not maneuver to back into any space because everyone that’s there has been there very long term and is living there. They all have garbage and debris overflowing their sites preventing me from backing in properly. The place is incredibly run down and dirty, it didn’t feel safe. I requested my money back which he did and then I left. I can’t believe that even being in the city, though the bad side of the city at that he’s charging $125 a night! I’ve been all over the country and I have to say that $25-$30 a night would be an extreme stretch realistically. Stay far away from here, it’s not safe, it’s not clean.

  Betabel RV Resort

  Clean quiet safe

  This is a great RV resort for extended stay or overnight if traveling through. Lots of pull through sites for long RVs which are OK here. In the summer, there is a strong coastal influence so it stays cool here! Amenities include a pool, very clean bathrooms and showers and a small store.

  Half Moon Bay State Beach Campground

  Busy Campground in May

  The hike and bike area is next to the RV hookup sites, and it can get a good bit of foot traffic.  Restrooms/showers were dirty, but that seems to be from the day visitors to the beach. It was cool and breezy, but still enjoyable on the beach.

  San Francisco RV Resort

  Too close for comfort

  Our group stayed here in early August of 2017. This RV resort gets packed!! RV’s were super close together so it’s a roll of the dice on what kind of neighbors you’re gonna get!!There are a few picnic tables around, but nothing in terms of entertainment for kids. Thank goodness we brought the kids’ bikes!! If you are willing to sacrifice the close proximity to neighbors, there are some killer views of the Pacific Ocean. We even saw whales!! The sunset was pretty killer, too.

  Anthony Chabot Regional Park

  Scenic Campsites with Great Hiking Trails

  Anthony Chabot Campgrounds sits high up on the Castro Valley Hills overlooking Lake Chabot. There are several awesome hiking trails going down to the lake as well as some equestrian trails. The hiking trails go around the lake. Dogs are allowed but they should be on a leash. Lake Chabot has a marina that rents boats for recreational use and fishing. It's a few miles driver to get there from the campgrounds. I only gave it 4 stars because of that. They have tent and RV campsites, but no RV hookups.

  Redwood Resort

  Consider campfires!

  This was a nice RV resort. It was clean and had bathrooms and showers! We were “placed” in a spot that held all the tree clippings and debris in a trailer. It backed up against 2 apt buildings with a baby that cried all night!! We were told no campfires unless we had a proper fire pit! That was the icing on the cake! 65$ for this spot but beggars can’t be choosers and when your camping in northern Ca make sure to have reservations because the old school ways of pulling off the side of the road and roughing it are over! Reservations are a must or you get what you get and you don’t pitch a fit!!!!!! But maybe consider campfires cause after all, what’s camping w/out a campfire?

  Gilroy Garlic USA RV Park

  Great Layover

  We had a quick three-day trip here to visit family. The pool is small, yet well-kept and we had it to ourselves every time we went each day. The park was perfect for the kids biking around through the short- and long-term areas.

  Santa Cruz North-Costanoa KOA

  Fantastic (but pricey) KOA Experience

  Yes, this is a KOA, so if you are into tent camping or an immersive forest setting, you might want to look elsewhere. But for a quick weekend jaunt for RV campers, this location slightly more than an hour from the Bay Area is hard to beat. Full hook-ups are available, there is an on site restaurant and outdoor bar, and there is close proximity to multiple beaches and tide pools. The resort also has great activities for kids that they occasionally bring on site, such as a climbing wall and nature talks with live animals. The sites at the bottom of the first loop with awesome sunset views are my favorite. Very grassy and “outdoorsy” for a KOA.

  Pinto Lake City Park

  Small City Park... Good Option for short and/or Longer Stays

  Small city park with RV Parking on grass between lake and baseball fields.  Sites almost level; however, might need to use a few blocks.  Park was busy with locals using pavilions for birthday and other parties when we visited on a Saturday in June.  Adjacent baseball field was busy on Sunday morning with little league game and parking lot was full.  Cars were being parked in unused RV spots.  Many people were fishing from the shoreline.  Many Candian geese (with poop) were in the dock area and alone the shoreline.  Some ducks made themselves at home in the shade under our RV.  Temperature was considerably cooler versus the very hot temps only a few miles further inland.  Nice that each site has electric / water / sewer hook-ups.  Two rest rooms (one by lake and one by baseball field) were a little dirty due to heavy use.  Unfortunate there are no showers and that you can only walk around perhaps 10% of the lake shoreline.  Quiet at night as they lock the park gate... they give you an access card ($25 deposit req'd) if you need to leave and return after gate is locked at night.  Called and requested my $25 credit after refund was not automatically received a few days later.  Credit was immediately made.  A good option especially if parks along the coast are booked and you want reasonably cool temperatures.  Would stay again.

  Kit Fox RV Park

  Nice camp between stops

  I stayed here for one night in a 22’ RV at one of the back-in sites for the shorter term stays on a drive from Death Valley back towards the San Francisco Bay area. I believe the office is currently closed due to Covid, but they have a box of maps and envelopes plus a drop box for payment right outside the office.

  It looks like most of the spots here are for pretty long term stays. There was plenty for space for short term, overnight campers. Spot comes with WiFi code, but there’s plenty of cell service too. You’re close to the I5 and can hear the soft lull of some traffic, but it’s still fairly quiet.

  Contra Costa County Fair RV Park

  Not what you think

  Located at the Contra Costa County fairgrounds, this is an rv campground that doesn’t allow long term stay. These spaces are located directly next Antioch Speedway, where Saturday nights from Spring-Fall have dirt-track racing, it gets loud and dusty. During the morning-afternoon, Sat & Sun you have the flea market...where the camp sites are, is directly between the two. I would only recommend staying here if you are passing through for a night. Antioch has become riddled with crime, so if you’re passing through, my recommendation is to continue through Antioch, to the next option. There are no paved roads or pads, this all gravel, with a little bit of grass, what you see in the photo, is not of the campground, or anything near it.

  Stay on lower road with the big ones!

  Really nice, safe and friendly place. Family owned for generation. Lots of trails, easy hooks ups, dog friendly. They say daily, weekly, monthly rates. To be month to month requires credit and background check. Full hook ups, elec, water and gray water. Nice sized pad. Cherry and apple tress throughput and a wooden grove chapel.

  Gilroy Garlic USA RV Park

  Not bad for RV park

  First let me say RV parks are my least favorite places to stay, thus 4 stars. But when a heatwave comes through I need hookups for AC. I stayed 2 nights. Very clean grounds. Several shade trees. Lots of little kids. Wi-Fi was great. Could work and stream TV. Facilities (bathrooms and showers) were nice. Pool was wonderful. Staff were super friendly. Gave my dog a treat! Lots of dogs. Tiny dog park, gravel, but grassy areas around too. Right behind shopping center with Walmart, Target, Lowe's and much more. Only negatives were, even though it was a week after the 4th of July, both nights someone was shooting fireworks, sounded like in the park, so my poor dog was terrified. It also smelled like sewage. Someone said Gilroy often has a bad smell. My spot wasn't too bad but my sewer line was right in front of this other camper's front door. I was backed up inches from their slide-out. Rates were reasonable, considering full hookups, a pool and the Wi-Fi. I'd stay again if I'm in that area.

  New Brighton State Beach Campground

  Open sites without reservation

  Not sure why the reserve california site says every SP or SB on the coast has 0 sites for the foreseeable future, but we decided to take our chances. Yes! arrived at like 3 pm and they still had 10 open sites. We got site 72.

  Like other reviews said, this campground is super "non-private" but it reminded me of... any other state beach/state park, so not a big deal for us. It was nice and quiet, mostly RVS or vanlifers. Bathrooms were fine, no lines ever. Lots of cute dogs.

  "Premium" sites (bluff, beautiful beach views) are 50$ a night, regular sites are 35$, and full hook-up is 50$ too I believe.

  Overall, really nice campground, with a trail right to the beach. Enjoyed it!

  Alameda County Fairgrounds RV Park

  Clean park at edge of SF Bay Area

  We camp here with our travel trailer at the start of each season, to check out all our systems. If you are visiting and want to go to San Francisco, I think this is one of the closest RV parks to the city.

  Sites are grassy, some with trees, and pretty close together.

  If the Alameda Fairgrounds are having an event, you can't beat this location, it's on the property.

  Trailer Villa RV Park

  Easy-Peazy

  This RV park is great! We did a same day drop-in reservation for an overnight stay over the phone. After-hours check-in was a breeze, as the checkin instructions were taped to the main door of the office at the park entrance. The grounds are clean; parking pads are concrete and flat; and drive lanes AND parking spots are wide and spacious for maneuvering large RVs. Quiet hours are observed as we arrived very late and we felt like teenagers sneaking back in the house after a night out! This was just an unplanned stop on along journey so we didn’t explore the rest of the grounds, but I would highly recommend this RV park for any length of stay if the daytime environment is anywhere close to what we experienced at night! Happy trails!

  San Francisco RV Resort

  Way better than the bad reviews say!

  If you want a great little place with quick easy access to San Francisco that has a great view of the ocean this place is great! And affordable! It's a little extra on a Thousand Trails membership... but the area is just so crazy expensive I can understand the need. The staff was welcoming on the way in. Spots are pre-reserved for you so you don't have to worry about the first-come-first-serve mess. That's always a relief. It doesn't look like all of the pull-through spots are still pull-through really even though the campground map indicates they are. The ones on the north side may be but looked like they are for really long rigs. I think that's mostly because of the recent configuration changes to the spots. The west side of the park DID fall into the ocean. This doesn't affect you or anything. There's a fence along that side now so you don't get close to the cliffs.

  The spots are all on asphalt so that keeps everything a bit cleaner. Some spots like ours did have the hookups on the wrong side due to it having been a pull-through at one time. We had to bring our cord and sewer line under the RV but didn't need any extensions. We were right beside the bathrooms which were clean and well kept. The spots are a bit tight... but... just realized where you are. It's not like there's a whole lot of land to go around in this city.

  The view of the ocean and the sunsets are fantastic. I honestly didn't understand any of the bad reviews because we actually had no bad experiences whatsoever. No campground is truly a 5-star as they never have everything but this one is definitely a solid 4.

  Even though it's in Pacifica, it's still super easy to get into San Francisco if that's your goal. We just parked our truck at Daly Station's parking garage. It's very safe and patrolled ( still don't leave anything visible in your car though just to be safe). The train takes you right into the heart of San Francisco and the transportation system there gets you everywhere else easily. We just got a Clipper card for our stay. If you just want to relax here there's still a beautiful walking path just south of the park. There is an auto junkyard next door to the south. Just get on the sidewalk and walk past there a little ways and then cut over on Paloma Avenue (I believe it was) to get to the path that goes along the ocean for a couple miles. Great views! Even walked down at night with our dog and never a once felt unsafe.
