Reservations are essential during peak seasons, particularly at oceanfront locations where availability becomes limited months in advance. Many parks enforce strict arrival times with gates closing at specific hours—Rancho Jurupa's security gates close at 10 pm with access codes provided at check-in. Cell service is generally reliable throughout coastal RV parks, though WiFi quality varies significantly between locations. A review noted that "AT&T cell service worked full bars and wifi was great. Very little trouble working remote or streaming." Pet policies differ between parks, with most allowing dogs but requiring leashes and charging additional fees. Dump stations are available at most locations, though some parks like Newport Dunes and Paradise By The Sea include full sewer hookups at individual sites, eliminating the need for separate dumping facilities.
