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.
TravelerThis 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.
Guide
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
Cons:
GuideThe 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.
ScoutThis 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.
Ranger
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.
Guide
We love Marina Dunes RV Resort! This was our first stay here and we thoroughly enjoyed it! We love the proximity to the beach and the beautiful dunes. The park was very clean and well-maintained. The staff was great and very welcoming. Thank you to Christy who made our stay extra fun! We will definitely be back! Thanks guys!😎💗
Ranger
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 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.
Traveler
This park has full hook ups. Sewer, water and electrical. No cell phone service or WiFi or cable. It’s in a gorgeous location and they have to short trails into the wild.💕
Traveler
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?
ScoutIf you want to park in a parking lot here’s your chance. 95% long term occupancy. Only sites available for short term is the parking lot with a shrub on a stick they call a tree.
GuideWe 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.
Guide
For what this RV park is designed to be, it is done very well. It’s a parking lot with full hookups strategically located to public transit direct to San Francisco. It’s surprisingly quiet for being in a semi industrial area right next to the 101, but there is road noise of course. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
But I can’t give a parking lot 4 or 5 stars. That said it served our needs just fine and we’d stay there again, especially if we were visiting San Fran.
Scout
Back in only. Very few sites and no amenities other than full hook ups and 30 amps.
Guide
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.
Traveler
Be careful,Very dangerous to drive at night the road is very small.. Full hook up.. Table with chess board . Free wifi . It’s a parking lot . No wood only charcoal. Very close to each other..

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.
GuideReally 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.
GuideFirst 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.
Guide
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!
GuideThis RV Park gets 5 stars purely for it's location. Drive in, park and then walk to all the sights you want to see in San Francisco. A short 10 minute walk from the RV park is the ferry that will drop you off downtown San Francisco. We spent a week here and only drove when we wanted the experience driving down Lombard St and driving across the Golden Gate Bridge. Otherwise we took the ferry and then public transportation to all other points of interest in the San Francisco area. It truly is nothing more than a parking lot with hookups.
Traveler
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.
ScoutA good RV park @ fairground with lot of RVs $42 for 30-AMP though we don’t need it. Good Wifi & clean toilet/shower Friendly staff
Guide
Good RV Park , back in parking only. Limited space , reservation required. Easy walk to town and restaurants, numerous in area. Great Whale watching boats available right next to RV Park
Scout
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!
TravelerMoss Landing RV park is a small, tight park close to Salinas Beach. Lots of great food close by. Cell and WiFi have been ok to good this past week, with a couple nights not being able to connect or stay connected. 20-30 drive to downtown Santa Cruz or downtown Monterey. Lots of trails, hiking, kayaking available. One of our favorite RV parks while traveling in this area.
