Best RV Parks & Resorts near Moss Beach, CA

We visited this park earlier this spring. Yes it was wet, but we didn't mind. Liked the spaces and layout so much...we are going back this fall. Plus we love that whole area.

However, DYRT got some info wrong. While there are plenty of full hookup spaces for RVs, there are no pull thru sites. Only back in for trailers and drive-in for coaches. Many tent camping spaces and RV spaces w/just water and power. The folks are friendly and helpful.

M.R.

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.

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.

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?

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.💕

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.

Back in only. Very few sites and no amenities other than full hook ups and 30 amps.

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..

This campground was a challenge to get to. Many windy roads (clearly not their fault). Some shady sites. Few full hook up available. Honey wagon available for non-sewer sites for $25. Clean bathrooms/showers. Dirt sites mostly level. The sites across the back of the campground are beautiful. Most have nice space between them. Great laundry room! I would book here again for a good long stay! Lots to do as it is near San Francisco, beaches, and Reyes Point. Nice “town” area too not far away.

This 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.

When I read reviews of this campground, we almost went elsewhere. So glad we didn't. What a lovely spot! Staff was immediately responsive when an issue came up involving a camper in a wrong site. I was impressed that they wet down the roads a couple of times per day to keep the dust down. They work hard to keep the sites neat & trimmed. We had full hook-ups @ our site. We were there Thurs through Tues. Most nights were very quiet with people retiring by dark. Fr & Sat there were a few more folks up a little later, but by 8p, the campground was dark & quiet. We will return. Great staff from desk to riding mower!

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!

No privacy but spacious for a private RV park.

We stayed at Smithwoods October 18-20. We were in site J, on the point. It was nice and big. Full hook ups. We had a great view of the San Lorenzo River and Henry Cowell State Park. The staff is great and helpful. We had a small issue with our cable tv(no fault of theirs) and they came right over and fixed our issue. The place is dog friendly. We had our two dogs. Be ready for no cell or WiFi. We occasionally got 1 bar of cell service in our site if we stood in a certain spot. (AT&T)There was WiFi up at the office but it was inconsistent. Our son did his online school and he kept dropping off. But we worked through it. It was a short nice hike to the state park and the train through the red woods. Fun experience on a real steam locomotive. We would stay there again next time we are in the Santa Cruz area.

I came here to car camp with some friends for the weekend. And found that there are only four bullyan RV spots and one parallel RV spot. There are no electric or water hookups. There is no running water. There is no drinkable water. There are no fire pits. There's barely any shade. Car camping is not allowed tent camping is not allowed that's why I don't understand how they call this a campground

This campground is beautiful and at 50% of normal capacity even better! The campground is set among a grove of eucalyptus trees that offer shade, which would be really nice during summer, and a calming aroma. 

There are dry and full hook up sites. 

$35 for dry

$45 for hook ups

$8 reservation fee

$2 fee per day for each dog which is not stated when making reservations, you  are expected to pay when you arrive.

We have 3 dogs and the ranger came by and mentioned the fee though he never made us pay it. Also they do not allow visitors at this time due to Covid, campers only. There was some type of maintenance going on which had trucks frequently driving up and down the road but overall quiet. Strict rule of no check in prior to 2pm, but there is a day use area nearby to park in and hike around if you arrive early. The road up to the campground is winding with a lot of cyclists. Cell service was spotty on the way up and weak at campground but usable with our WeBoost. The road in the campground is narrow with tight turns into the sites so if you have a big rig be aware.

Other amenities:

Recycling and garbage

Bathrooms and showers

Tons of hiking and biking trails

Water and dump station available for dry campers

Fire pit, firewood for sale at kiosk for $10/bundle

Picnic tables

30 amp only

Paved parking pad, mostly level

Overall would definitely come again!
