"Ventura County Park in Fillmore. Nice quiet setting close to Channel Islands visitors center and the surrounding areas. Bathrooms were clean. Need quarters for showers."
"It was a lovely, quiet park that I was surprised to find tucked away in Fillmore. On the Saturday night that I stayed, it was lively with BBQers and families, but quiet by 10."
"Our lot was secluded, private and close to the entrance/exit. The only thing was the unlevel ground we were on. Our RV was a simple 30’ rental without any leveling."
"Feels far from everything, but is only a short drive from LA/SFV. The adjacent town of Santa Paula is a great place to spend time."
$38 - $50 / night
"Enjoy a walk around the lake, or head out onto the water for wakeboarding."
"We were placed away from all the tent campers. Staff was friendly and helpful. Tighter spots for anything over 25ft. ONLY AT&T works. Wifi is $9/day for one device."
"It seems the campsite attracts a rowdy crowd but that's expected so close to the city. Still, noisy neighbors was definitely the most negative aspect of our stay."
"A family of 2 peahens, a peacock, and 3 babies hung out near the creek. Beautiful birds. After walking around the creek for an hour, I came back to see a few bundles of wood left for me."
$45 - $60 / night
"It was a quick drive up the coast and onto this hidden gem. You get access to a private beach with gorgeous California hill views of PCH behind you. Perfect place for families or even RVs."
"The campground is tucked away in a beautiful canyon setting with lots of shade trees, which was really nice for keeping cool."
$25 - $28 / night
"There is a small play park at the base of the hill for small children to unwind, but I recommend driving a few miles further into Ojai and visiting Libbey Park."
"The closest flush toilets are closed but there are ones near the road that are nice."
$35 / night
"Not crowded and a place you can rarely camp beachfront in souther California. I have to note the bathrooms are absolutely terrible."
"You are so close to the water and there is plenty of space between you and your neighbor. When we were there many people had RVs so there were only a few tents."
"This is a very nice campground near everything but still away from it all. No issues parking our 42' 5th wheel here. Clean and quiet despite the peacocks. They can be rather loud when startled."
"This campground happens to be very close to home so we went here to try out our brand new pull behind camper trailer for the very first time.
The campground is small, quiet and very well-kept."
$34 - $74 / night
"Of course fire, candles and bug spray help but because of the nice creek nearby its kind of unavoidable. With that said, the bugs go night night at dark and a big fire helps."
"We reserved site #49 which was plenty big enough for our 26ft class c, but the drive through the campground to get to the site was a little narrow and tight, wouldn't recommend for larger RVs."
"This campground is located in Santa Barbara County just west of Ojai. Beautiful mountain scenery. It’s great for tents and RVs.
The lake offers fishing and boating, no body contact."
"A nice feature, (we did not take advantage of), is there is a water slide park near the entrance. As far as I know, this is a separate fee, but nothing astronomical."
TravelerWe parked right by the Pacific Ocean, watched planes from LAX fly overhead, and soaked in a stunning sunset🌅. It was the ideal place to settle into our campervan life as a Desi-Filipino-Canadian family on a 5000 KM adventure.
✅ Beachfront RV spots
✅ Clean restrooms& showers
✅ Amazing views
❗Planes are loud but fun
We had a dry campsite a bit further from the airport, so the plane noise was much less
TravelerAs a tent camper, I loved it. 26 bucks was on the expensive side but well worth it. Super quiet. Nice and cool for the summer and I’m staying here on my way to Northern California off I5
TravelerGood for what it is. There’s not a lot of trash but some. It’s nice to be able to walk to the beach and there’s water spouts to clean your feet. The bathrooms are pretty clean, didn’t use the showers though. It’s a bit noisy with highway traffic and the occasional train. It’s pretty open so there’s no privacy to any site. I stayed at 103 which was a big mistake because there is no shade at that site.
TravelerThis is a great family oriented campground. They have two nice pools one for adults and one for families. They have a nice size laundry room that stays clean. They have several bathrooms and showers throughout the campground. We stayed all the way in the back of the campground and it was nice and quiet!
TravelerI stay at Foster Red Mountain campground. It was in a nice location. Certain sites are very close to the main road, check the map to stay in a quieter space. There were TONS of bugs. It looks like no one has tended to the grounds in a year. Ground loaded with dead leaves and likely the cause for all the bugs. You open your tent for one second and they’re all trying to get in, would be better if they had a shower. Overall nice area and campsite.
TravelerI had a nice stay. Noticed they had one random night available on a Monday. There were at least 3 other empty sites. I don’t know why people don’t cancel their reservation if they’re not going to come. There are very few sites here. I did smell what I thought might be the bathrooms quite a bit wafting through my campsite. They don’t smell bad when using them though….. so maybe it was one of the nearby rvs?? Not sure. Love that the beach is dog friendly. Many other beachfront campsites in SoCal have beaches that are not dog friendly. Next to the highway but all you can mostly hear are crashing waves. Very chill.
GuideNice little camp ground. They need to do some trash cleanup and people need to not be slots. There are dumpsters and water and multiple toilets. It's a bit close to the road, but it pretty. There is a nice breeze. Cause it's in a valley the sun isn't too bad
ScoutThis campground is well maintained. There is a dump station nearby. Great place to stop heading over the Grapevine.
GuidePerfect last minute late night hold over stop
