Best Glamping near Newberry Springs, CA

We stayed here for four nights and actually enjoyed it in spite of the heat during the afternoon hours.  Our space was on the end so we had a lot of privacy but near the I-40.  That didn't bother us but it might bother those who are looking for total quiet.  The nights were fantastic!!  The lakes here give it a nice feel since it's in the Mojave desert between Barstow and Ludlow California.  The staff was VERY friendly and helpful.  The best part for me was the pool which was clean and cool.

We were only here one night but we had a nice stay. We left the windows open since it was great evening weather. The freeway noise was there but it didn’t keep us up. We had full hookups and check-in was easy. Our near-end site was great for our dogs since no one was booked at the end so we had plenty of space. The space itself was large and we enjoyed the quiet. I’m sure we’ll stay again when we’re in the area.

A nice enough place to stop right off of I 40 and old route 66. Gravel pads they were level no problems with the hook ups. It’s a nice pool and two ponds. It was 120° when I got there so the pool felt really good. And OK stopping place betweenThe coast and Las Vegas.

Christina was very nice. The place has a swimming pool that looked clean. The restroom/shower was not. The handle on the shower in the men's was broken off so I used my multi-tool. We could not get the Wi-Fi to work at all. Christina said she would reset it and she may have but it still did not work. The first place we pulled into did not have any power. We reported it and she immediately move us to the place net to it where power was good and passed my tester for good ground, etc.

Overall the place could use a good scrubbing and some paint. It looked like it was very nice 30 years ago. The ponds looked nice and the grounds were clean. Would I stay here again? Really there are not a lot of choices so maybe I would. With a good cleaning, fixing some small items and some paint it could be much better.

Nice litle jam with 2 lakes and pool.

The campground (CG) was super easy to find as it was right off I-40 on old Route 66. Our check-in could not have been easier, and the reception was very nice. There are 18 FHU sites here, with half being for long-termers on the west side and short-term pull-throughs on the east side. We were given an option of several sites and chose site 17. We had to disconnect and park on the side of this gravel site. The Wi-Fi speed was 3.32 for Download and 2.35 for Upload, which worked okay. We got 3 bars on Verizon. Due to the expected freeze warning, we did not hook up to the water or sewer. There are a few trees in the CG so getting a clear shot for satellite is easy. The old caboose, the Hwy 66 hotel mural, and the ducks around the pond were a nice touch. They had a shower house and laundry, but we did not use them. Heads up that we got diesel at the exit a couple of miles west of the campground, and that was the most expensive price we experienced in CA at$6.69/gallon last January.

All the great KOA perks. Camp Store. Full hookups. A refreshing pool.

Great pass through campground. They have Archery, a pool, and a store. There are restaurants near the campground. The bathrooms were just ok.

I love places that are child friendly because it shows when people truly care for others and this place sure does! Yes, it's a hole in the wall but what did you expect Barstow to be>??? This RV spot however is a KAO and has tons of family-friendly things to do so no one will be bored. Yes it's parallel to the major free way but I mean it's well kept and plenty of things to do. For sure a Good Spot for a day or two

I had to change my reservation three times, and the staff was incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to give us the easiest possible stay. The campground itself was reasonably clean with a gorgeous view of the desert and mountains. Sites laid out well and most are pull through and accommodate big rigs. Pool, laundry, general store, showers and lavatories. They did not however have the shuttle to the silver mine as advertised (ended with Covid) and the Enterprise rental in Barstow does not “pick you up“ and were rude besides.

Pretty standard KOA, some shade, level gravel sites with useable WiFi. Bathhouse was adequate, updated and clean. Convenient to Routes 15, 40 and 66.

Clean facilities and fit the need for the night. The interstate is loud, so it did impact a good nights sleep. Over all, a cute little KOA

Great place for a stop over. Level sites.

We needed a place to stay for our last 2 nights on the road before going home after the place we reserved was not a good fit for our 40 ft Allegro Bus. We called and they had a perfect spot for us for the 2 days. It's clean and quiet here and right off the freeway. We couldn't hear the freeway from our RV. We were so glad we found the KOA. Pull throughs that fit our 40ft plus tow. There's gravel but flat so leveling isn't difficult with the blocks. Plenty of room, some spots with trees and some bushes. Our 4 slide outs fit with no problem.

It was a typical KOA. Clean bathrooms and showers. Nice store. The pool was awesome. It was graveled so low dirt and dust. It was a 106 so there wasn’t much to do. The cable was good and WiFi was good.

Road noise and maintenance people not really maintenance people. Overpriced tiny store.

This is over priced, maintenance nonexistent, dirty, park. Doesn't meet KOA standards in my eyes? Splash and Dash Stop

OK for one night ... kinda dirty

Clean. Has bathrooms and laundry

I stopped here for two nights to wait out some bad weather that  prevented me from going from point A to point B. It was nice  to be able to capitalize on the opportunity to take a shower, do some laundry and top off propane. Not so nice: the camp store was dismally stocked, half the laundry machines were out of service, including all of the large machines, the main restrooms and showers at the front of the site were well cared for, up to usual KOA standards, however the smaller restroom unit in the rear of the property was substandard. Stayed in site #61. This site is well shaded but forget about having good solar panel exposure.

A great spot that we can’t wait to go back and spend a couple of days at. The amenities at this KOA are great. Pool...playground...horseshoes...archery range...etc.

Just up the road too is the Calico western ghost town.

They have some decent shaded areas that made it look like just about every spot would be a good one.

We had a spot in the front with a patio and everything. It was very nice except for the sewer drain being at the front end of the site (I had to put an extension on my poop pipe)...the other down side of being in the front is the traffic noise from the highway...I could hear it all night.

Last bit — the staff is very responsive and helpful. The sewage pipe had a back up in it (thankfully learned this with grey water!). The staff got out there and foxed it right away. The only other weird thing was my 30AMP power surge protector said polarity was reversed on the L1 or L2...but everything worked fine.

Passed through for a night. Looked to be an average KOA - several cute things to do. The park itself is basically a gravel lot but they have done some nice work with trees and shrubs to make it seem less so. Unfortunately it is extremely close to I-15 and the traffic on 15 never stops. It made for a rough night’s sleep. We’ll find somewhere else to stay next time.
