This is one of our go to campgrounds for our camping trips in SoCal. Beautiful ocean views! Next to Coast Hwy which is busy but not totally annoying. Stores down the road for any necessities. Beach is accessible by stairs--nothing at beach level. Basic and RV hook-up sites.

Beautiful RV resort with short drives to the beach, San Diego, and casinos. Full hook ups, pool, dog walk. Little pricey and has RV age restrictions but I sent pics and was allowed eveen though I was outside the age.

We will not return here. We live in our travel trailer/camper. Good things first: bathrooms are clean. The grounds crew and store personnel are helpful and friendly. Plenty of dumpsters. Reasonably close to the things we wanted to do/see in San Diego. Good number of shaded spots, if you can get into one. Bad things: we were under the impression that the entire campground had full hook ups. Only the south side has full sewer, water, and electric hook ups. To get a spot on the south side, you have to go through a complicated first come first serve/wait for people to leave/list/lottery/nonsense. Our check in was more of a hassle than a breeze. It was not mentioned that not every RV spot on the north side had water and electric. The sites are not well marked. It looked like picnic tables were moved so other campers would not be close. We couldn't tell how far we were on or off our site. Buildings are dilapidated. Camping areas are not maintained. There was a lot of litter that could have been raked up and disposed of. The North side of the campground is neglected. There was no obvious signage that the washers and dryers did not except debit/credit cards. There was only one place in the grounds were you could get a preloaded laundry card, and it was broken. The ladies at the check in station were very clear that a serviceman was called and they were getting a new contract. But that didn't help get the laundry clean. Several of the washers and dryers were out of service. It's a 10 mile drive to Chula Vista for services. It was made clear before our stay that there was little to no cell service. However, Lake Whitney, Texas Thousand Trails provided free wifi for all in their lodge. That is not the case at Pio Pico. This is the third Thousand Trails campground we have stayed at, and we're considering leaving before our full seven days are up.

Woods valley is a gem in San Diego county. Very natural setting with lots of trees. The campground is immaculate, always clean and they keep the caliber of long term guests very high. Gold standard RV park!

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.

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.
ScoutI recently had the pleasure of staying at Escondido RV Resort and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience. Michael's friendly customer service and professionalism truly stood out, making our stay all the more enjoyable.
Despite facing challenging weather conditions with heavy rain and hail from an atmospheric river, everything continued to function seamlessly- from the electric hookups to the water supply.
The drainage system at Escondido RV Resort was impeccable, preventing any issues with mudslides even in such extreme weather.
The site itself is simply stunning, nestled in a peaceful and beautiful location that provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The resort's prime location added to the overall charm, allowing easy access to nearby attractions while still offering a quiet and serene atmosphere.
Overall, I highly recommend Escondido RV Resort for a memorable and hassle-free vacation. The combination of exceptional customer service, reliable facilities, and serene surroundings make it a top choice for any RV enthusiast. Thank you to Michael and the entire team for a wonderful stay!

This RV resort is situated between free ways. Road noise is the main issue. Otherwise it’s a very nice and well maintained RV resort.
Scout
Ramona Oaks is exactly what it says RV Resort, they do have 4 tent sites available which are ok just very rocky. One thing i didn’t like was the tent sites being so close to the main road that all night long you hear semi trucks and rice burners with their load exhaust driving down the windy road. A lot of the RV spots look to be permanent or semi permanent residence and nobody really comes out to socialize. There wasn’t a lot of kids out like i thought there would be like when i used to go camping as a kid. They do have a small lake that is catch and release only, don’t know exactly what fish are in there but i did catch a few sun fish. They do have a nice playground for the kids.
ScoutGreat rv resort. Close proximity to casino.

We‘ve had a really great stay at the Vacationer RV resort in San Diego.

There has never been tent camping allowed here. There is RV or trailer camping but no tent and no bathrooms here. Make sure you check the water quality since it can be an issue at times since it is near the Mexico border.

The spots were very and there was not any grass for our dogs. We moved to Shadowhills RV Resort and loved it...great place for us and the dogs.

Hot spring campground in the Anza desert. Such a great place to come and reset from busy day to day hustle. Peaceful and clean, with cabins for those who dont tent or trailer camp.
ScoutPretty steep rates if not a Thousand Trails Trails Collection member. 2 pools (1 adults only & hot tub, other for families). shuffle board, access to neighboring upscale mobile home park amenities, another pool, work out room, tennis courts and golf. Close to grocery stores, restaurants, cinema, bikable town and transit if you don't have a toad/small vehicle. Limited availability for over 38', easy last minute reservations >=35'

It’s a nice Rv resort. Big rig friendly pull through sites. Went Veterans Day weekend 2021 and the weather was perfect. Short walk to the water, De Anza Cove. The beach is a dog friendly after 4 p.m.

I would not ever call this a resort. It is a campground. The road to the office was full of huge potholes, I’ve heard that they are patching it each year, but it needs a major upgrade. It is hard to maneuver your RV around the potholes. The whole park is run-down but this doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy my stay!
I visited in December, the weather was perfect. It was in the’70s all day. They have accepted my Passport America discount for one night and my Good Sam discount for the other night I’ve spent here. The sites are pretty large, gravel but not level. You better bring your leveling blocks.
Why do I like this place? There is a lot to do here. Even though the pools are not heated, the pool area is closed for the winter; in the summer this place is fantastic for families. It is a huge park, lots of open space, kids are freely roaming around everywhere. There is mini-golf, ping pong, pickleball, volleyball, basketball courts. For the summer there is a water slide separate from the pool area. I found a 1.5-mile-long nature trail, which was very nice, but there are other hiking and biking opportunities in the area. You can walk down to the lake for example. The lake is farther down. Even though I like taking my showers in RV resort showers, this one was so run down that I’ve decided to take it in my small RV. I didn’t like the looks. There is a convenience store by the main building, where you can buy some basic camping items and snacks. I saw a cafe attached to a nice outdoor area with a stage but it wasn’t open. They are making it ready for the upcoming New Years’ Eve party. Who knew that New Year Eve is a huge camping holiday? I had awesome Sprint coverage, I was able to tether and watch my Netflix too. I gave this place 4 stars because they call it a resort. This is not a resort, a nice campground with lots to do.

Lovely place. Feels much further away than it actually was, which is great when you’re traveling with young kids! Awesome playground only a short walk from our trailer camp spot (#16 which had a huge tree that made parking a little tricky) that had a great little secluded table/fire ring spot! Good hikes as well!

This is a San Diego County Park/Campground. It offers everything from tent/car camping to full hook-up for large RVs. The campground also has some nice amenities: good trail system, a splash pad (open in spring and summer months), a playground, some areas to have a group picnic, even a large event room. There are about 60 camping spaces, mostly partial hook-ups (electricity and water) and a few full hook-ups (electricity, water, and sewer) in the original campground. These sites, 1-60 offer a bit more shade than the newer campsites which are all full hook-up. The newer sites (61 and higher) are on a hill and offer some good views of Bonita Valley. 61 and higher all are all full hook-ups - but you can put a tent on 'em.
The campground is freeway close and only a few miles away from grocery stores and restaurants.
This campground has a nice feel. It is a good place to unwind and enjoy a campfire and the whole camping experience. Good place for kids. There are several campsites with horse stalls for the equestrian campers.
Sweetwater is perched near a Freeway/Toll Road (not a terribly busy one) and it is under the San Diego Airport glide path for incoming flights. So yeah, a little more city than some other campgrounds.
At this time sites cost between $26 and $36 (?) per night. That gets yo one motor vehicle. Additional vehicles are $4 per night. There is a $1 pet fee, per pet.

This is a beautiful luxury RV resort in Borrego Springs, a desert community in San Diego County that's known for its unique metal sculptures, golf resorts, and beautiful hiking trails. We really enjoyed our stay at the Springs, especially the pool area and multiple hot mineral baths on the premises. They also have a little fishing pond, golf course, pickle ball and a wellness center where you can even get a massage. As a Designated Dark Sky Community, this is a great place to do some stargazing as well. While you're here, I recommend a day trip to Julian, a little ghost town that's known for their fabulous pies!

A beautiful RV resort, stayed pretty dispersed by staying in couple tent sites.
Wouldn’t come again this time of year without a heater, as it got uncomfortably cold at night. But the bathrooms are kept warm and very clean. The lodge is also warm and clean, worked out of there a couple of mornings, and the Wi-Fi was actually decent.

I had a reservation for a week the beginning of June. I called them up, and they let me arrive early because of an issue with another RV park. I wish I remembered the woman’s name. Place is well taken care of, but there are a lot of regular residents, and they park their cars everywhere. Empty spaces, half in the space, half in the street, it was nuts. I guess there’s a new manager who said she has her work cut out for her. Cell service was good (Consumer Cellular). The internet sucked because you could get it free for 5 days, but then had to spend if you’re there longer, and the speed was terrible. Plus you could only connect one device to it. No Smart TV, iPhone, iPad, and laptop. Just one device! In this day and age that is nuts. Got about 20 OTA channels, but only one major network, NBC. Laundry is with your debit card, but wicked expensive, $3.75 wash, $3.75 dry. Short walking distance to numerous stores, fast food joints, and to make you feel safe, a Highway Patrol office is right across the street. Nice and quiet, full hook-ups, gravel with a cement slab driveway, but very small. And they allowed ShadePro to install a new awning on my rig! Despite the negatives, I’d stay here again.

Limited FHU sites one is extremely lucky to find one available. Honey wagon is $25.00 per dump. 50 year old buildings in need of repairs as well as the electric wires ( OLD aluminum) bathrooms are old and drain covers are loose ( hazardous situation if barefooted in shower) informed maintenance and for 2 months nothing was fixed. The reason it got 3 stars ⭐️ is its location being up in the mountains ⛰ in a state forest is a nice place to relax unwind and get away from the rat race. If your a member of thousand trails this is an affordable park ( free ). If your a retail customer it is a little pricey even tent 🏕 camping is $50 -$60 a night. Then again in 2021 what isn’t expensive?

Staying here for the fall, winter, spring season. The facilities are very clean with a beautiful pool and spa. The rates are reasonable especially if staying long term. It’s mostly quiet although there are off road vehicles around they’re not too irritating. There are occasional fireworks. It feels very safe here. Lots of shade.

Quiet campground with nice sites for tents or RVs. Dogs allowed. Hiking and fishing. Near Idyllwild for day trips. No dump or full hook ups
