Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Oakley, CA

Brannan Island State Recreation Area permits pets throughout its campsites, offering both tent and RV spaces with water access for dogs. Sugar Barge RV Resort & Marina maintains pet-friendly policies across its tent sites, RV spots and glamping accommodations, with picnic tables at most sites and full hookups for RV campers. Both locations require pets to remain on leash when outside vehicles or camping units. Mount Diablo State Park's Live Oak Campground allows pets at tent and RV sites with restrictions against pets on most trails beyond developed areas. The tent area at Sugar Barge is generously spaced with four sites defined by picnic tables and backed up against the levee, creating a quiet setting away from RV generators.

Rio Viento RV Park features brick sites with large grass areas suitable for pet exercise, though the access road requires slow driving due to rough conditions. Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Tower Park and Delta Shores Resort and Marina both accommodate pets with cabin options for those seeking more comfortable accommodations with animals. Santiago Island Village permits pets but receives mixed reviews regarding staff interactions. Several campgrounds in the region include river or delta access where pets can cool off during hot weather. Most locations maintain clean facilities with trash disposal, though pet waste stations vary by campground. Temperature considerations remain important when camping with pets in this area, as summer heat can be intense and the delta region often experiences significant wind.

    Rancho Seco Recreation Area

    All types of fun !

    I love this place because it is about 45 minutes from the house.  There's plenty to do with lots of great sites.  The first time we went, they didn't have any annual passes because they lady was out that day. But the other day, we were able to finally get a season pass.  You can fish, hike, or swim here. The campsites are spacious and you don't feel over crowded if there is a family next to you. It's pet friendly. The store was recently redone and they offer a wide variety of items, from keep sakes to any necessity you may have forgotten ( lighter, logs, clothes shoes, etc... )  There also boat rental that are a fair price, plus you get them for an hour or so. ( You will have to check the prices and availability. ) There's a dog park for the dogs to roam free off the leash, which also has access to water/ beach area for the dogs only.

    SacWest RV Park & Campground

    Perfect for what it is.

    Perfect for what it is which is a basic parking lot RV park. The amenities are pretty great, lovely pool, petting zoo and my favorite the fenced dog park. Oh and they have a dog wash with leash clip!!! So many parks miss the opportunity for dog friendly features. They have the cleanest bathrooms i have ever experienced at an RV park.

    My only disappointment was the wifi connection specifically in communal spaces close to the office where it makes sense to have strong connection. Their rec room would be a perfect place to hey some work done if only the wifi was powerful enough. Since i was working on the road I was specifically in need of this amenity. I heard certain RV spots had great reception but unfortunately not ours.

    Vineyard RV Park

    Plug in and recharge!

    Took a last minute reservation. Call even if online says booked. Hot showers, great laundry facility, fenced dog park. I needed to recharge my camper van and relax from a couple weeks of city vanlife. Felt tucked away but close to every store you could want.

    SacWest RV Park & Campground

    A cute stay in the city

    We stayed here on our first foray into van camping. We were so surprised how clean the restrooms were. So far its been the best we’ve seen. My dog loved the off leash dog park. I waited until there was no one around because she’s a little skittish. Would recommend!

    SacWest RV Park & Campground

    We LOVED this campground!

    This was truly a gem to find after leaving Lake Tahoe early to avoid the incoming storm. We’d planned to only stopover one night but extended our stay. It was clean, had friendly staff, and a wonderful dog park. We will be back.

    Everything we need

    We have everything we need here; FHU, laundry, clean showers and bathrooms, great dog park, friendly staff. They pick up trash. Sites are pull- through, gravel and fairly level. Sites are close, but it wasn’t too crowded while we were here.

    French Camp RV Park and Golf Course

    Quiet, clean and great dog parks!

    I believe a lot of the people here are full-time. It’s a super sweet RV resort. It is very well-maintained, nicely landscaped, and they have some great dog parks. I came in after hours and the person managing the campground was kind enough to open up the office and get a space for me.

    Skyline Wilderness Park

    Great Napa Valley views

    Great place to hit Napa Valley. Staff was super friendly. Spots were pretty level, but close together. They gave free wifi but it was not consistent. It constantly dropped.

    They had a great little fenced in dog park which was great for our dog. The bathrooms were pretty clean with nice hot water. Codes needed for showers.

    Very quiet, no issues. We had friendly neighbors. There were people coming in for day use to use the trails for hiking, biking etc. We didn't get to explore as we were strictly in area to wine taste and eat some good food. We enjoyed our time there and would stay there again. $65 a night. Pricey compared to some places in CA, but probably a good price for Napa.
