      Buttoned up, formal atmosphere RV resort

      High priced. Nice people at desk. Damon who helped us park was very friendly. Almost entirely high-priced big rigs, some of whom seem settled here but it's clean, 'orderly,' very quiet. Rigid rules keep the order; nice that no political flags/signs allowed. 2 dog parks and lots of grassy areas to take for a walk. Showers in locker-room/bldg, bathrooms nice and clean. Green grass. Also has laundry with 2.50 wash and.25 dry for 8 min. Skunk wandered by site in the night. Cool train sounds from nearby tracks at night. Was probably the most convenient to San Jose, otherwise we likely would've been in mtns. and too far away from town for our needs at the time. Would not be a regular choice for us.

      Lake is beautiful. Campground extremely noisy

      Our neighbors in A119 talked, played loud music, whooped and laughed loudly until at least 3 am. At about 11 pm, we requested that please keep the noise down and reminded them of the quiet after 10 pm park rule. They said that the rule only applied to loud music and proceeded to make rude comments and told us to call the ranger. No one answered the phone. We called the local police: no noise ordinance in the county. Our neighbors proceeded to increase the volume of their talking, laughing and started hooting (making animal noises) as well. My husband asked them again at about 12 am to please be quiet and they got even louder after that. We moved to a different site and were still able to hear them but the noise level dropped to a more moderate level. We reported them to the ranger the next day but did not get a satisfactory response. There were at least 20 people at that site. The ranger said that 8 people was the limit. Without enforcement, number limits or quiet time rules are meaningless.

      Great Layover

      We 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.

      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.

      Great time in this campground!

      We spent one night right in front of the water, amazing view for the sunset. It’s true that bathroom / toilets / showers aren’t clean, they are quite old.

      But we didn’t care, the view worth it. We went swimming in the lake : what a pleasure. We saw some squirrels and dears, they didn’t bothered us.

      It was super calm. The crew was nice with us and let us spend only one night here for 50$ (the minimum should be 2 nights)

      I recommend this place!

      (Also, it’s right halfway between Yosemite and San Francisco: which was perfect for us)

      Good overnight stop

      Clean and safe overnight stop along I-5. Friendly and helpful staff. Security on patrol in golf carts. A little expensive, but not bad when considering the alternatives. We'll likely stop here again when on our way somewhere.

      Back for more

      This time I brought a friend who hadn't been here before. 

      As usual, the staff was great! Very friendly at our arrival and in the evening while performing their drive-by checks. 

      This time I actually tried the showers and I was not disappointed. Great water pressure, plenty warm and cleaner than you might expect. Sure, there are some bugs that get in, but it was way nicer than showering in my van. 

      The bathrooms are well maintained and stocked with paper towels and tp. They really do a nice job here.

      The riding was great. We were in awe of how empty it was. Father's Day weekend and we never came across anyone else on the trails. 

      We did have to relocate. My buddy couldn't get his RV into the hillside spot we'd reserved - M49 I think it was.

      So many animals and birds

      I had a big spot and no neighbors my entire half of the campground on a Monday night in June. I was under 2 big oaks that were buzzing with bird activity.
      The bathrooms were clean and I had water on my site. I had some AT&T service.

      ick

      Wow, let's say we had a nightmare ishhorrible experience. We rented a tent camp site for 2 nights. We were given an RV Slab camping site. It had the tiniest barbecue grill available. The water that was coming out of all the faucets,  was red and brown. People weren't allowed to shower that night. Once night fall came, the camp's site was infested with roaches Everywhere, they went in all our grocery bags and under them. Went into and under all our boxes that we had. The roaches hid under our tents also. There also seemed to be a termite infestation. We had to cut our camping trip short after spending over a thousand dollars on supplies, food, the Camping site and parking fees The workers that drove by, especially Travis, were nice and Welcoming. Dogs have to be on a leash at all times. If you want to go into the lake with your dog, You have to walk very far away if you didn't rent one of the tent sites at the lake front area. Had to fumigate my vehicle when I got home with all my stuff in it. I pray none of the bugs will be in my stuff at home. I heard many other guests screeching and shouting, omg theres cockroaches every where. Good to know, we weren't the only ones disappointed. The owner Jake refused to refund me, or my two guests that wasted their 50 dollars in parking fees, although the trip was cut short due to the conditions. Jake offered for us to stay another night. Will never be back. Beware.

      Great Campground

      Loved everything about this campground! Registration online was really easy as was the check-in process. We stayed in Valley View 1, site 106. There was really no road noise at our site, though a few sites further around the loop did have noise. This particular site has a trail leading directly to the vast network of hiking trails. Huge bonus for us and we were pleasantly surprised that not one person used our site as a cut through. On the subject of hiking, this is a county park that allows dogs on ALL the trails. It’s hard to find that sometimes so we greatly appreciated how dog friendly it was. We didn’t actually encounter anyone else as we hiked, so I can’t attest to whether folks follow the rule that dogs must be on a 6 ft lead on the trails, but they certainly did in the campground. There are quite a few trails that are currently closed due to storm damage, but crews were actively working on them.

      While the sites are a little close to each other, those on the outside of the loop had a great deal of privacy. Inner loop sites have none, but would be great if you were camping with friends. We didn’t use the restrooms or showers, but peeked in them anyway. Like everything else in this campground, they were clean and well maintained.

      The RV sites have both water and electric hookups which was great! There is a very convenient FREE dump station just inside the entrance to the park that we used as we departed.

      Our friends stayed in one of the yurts and it was great, albeit a little cold for them at night. I believe there are 2 dog friendly yurts. 106RV

      What a gem of a campground! We’ll definitely come back!

      Important to note that you can actually get a cell signal if you walk to the dump station!

      Distance from home was the highlight

      I had a very different take on this place than the others. The RV spot was a fair distance from the neighboring spots, it was low-density, quite, all good qualities, but there was very little see or do near the loop. There were no hikes suitable for young kids as far as I could tell. There was a little store for ice cream and camping supplies and dump station on the loop.  HOWEVER, WARNING: the road around the campground looks wide but there are boulders every 10 feet or so making it insanely hard to back into our spot - and we had only a 22ft trailer! I can't see myself coming back here. The maps do accurately depict the relatively narrow space you have for back in spots. Once we were in, it was fine.  The pedestal and sewer set-up was just fine. No issues there. It's just not worth the hassle. 

      As for the park/water part of the park, well, it was covered in garbage from the day-trippers. It was packed and only accessible by driving to it. Truly not a place I wanted to BBQ or picnic at.  Cars, people, dogs, loud music, and garbage. A gross diaper on the shore.     We took a very nice hike starting at the dog run. That was beautiful, but not worth the trip.

      I didn't bother to photograph our site. There were all adequate, just avoid back in site here. There are so many better places to visit.  I checked this off the list, no reason to return. I don't believe there was reception either from the campsite.

      Last thing, we peaked in on the cabins in our loop. They looks very nice and maintained.

      Continues to be a great MTB destination

      Since my initial visit in 2021 I've been back 4 or 5 times now. I guess that means I like it.

      Generally, it's a great place - especially for mountain biking fans. Perhaps also for fishing and other activities, but that's outside my scope of interest. 

      On my first return visit I went to the same spot as the first visit. It was a bad choice - crowded and full of RVs who ran their generators all night long. The next morning I scouted out some better spots. The ranger was quite accommodating and allowed me to move to a quiet spot on top of a hill. This area has become my "go to" as it's close to the Exchequer trailhead and away from boaters. 

      Subsequent visits have been much better.

      Could be a 5 star place, but shade is hard to come by in some areas and some clusters of camp sites get noisy when they're used by groups. 

      None of my complaints will stop me from going again - the trails are great and keep getting better.

      The photos are from various visits.

      Good location

      We liked the surrounding area and gorgeous rolling hills and while we were able to get a good spot it was not a campground that stood out too much to us. The pool is great though it was too cold to use it while we were there. No sewer hook up but dump station was close from our side. Overall happy with the stay

      Clean flat site. Pool and launderette good. Could not get water out of any of the showers so not sure if they are on a timer. Good hookup. We were given tokens for WiFi. Mine did not work, but husbands did.

      We used to LOVE this place…

      This was our hidden lil gets-a-way for my hubby and I to just get done R&R away from the hustle, bustle, and grind of daily life and work.

      Peaceful, quiet, and clean where two camping chairs and two single wine coolers, by the calm river and sound silence of nature was our healing remedy.

      The bonus was a hop skip and jump away from home, and the price for a secluded spot to just wind down was like winning the lottery for a mind, body, and spirit reset.

      Camp attendants were quiet and kept to themselves. Barely seen their presence really.

      Short hikes were very serene (just caution of poison ivy/oak?)

      Great spot for photo enthusiasts, especially Spring & Fall.

      But then change came - transients, garbage and litter, dirty bathrooms, and excessive price hikes!

      Definitely not worth 65-95 a night! Especially since the site tenants campsite has accumulated clutter and is an eye sore. Insane!

      Sadly, we haven’t been there in over 1.5 years now. Most likely won’t go back.

      La Grange Off-Road Park Campground

      Great Place - except on event days!

      We love La Grange. It’s been a huge part of our lives over the years where we have taught many how to ride various off-road vehicles and direct bikes over the years. It’s mainly a go to place for our annual trips to let our grandkids break free after a long school year. Lots of family memories there.

      But our last few visits have been worrisome to say the least. Trust we get that being our hear comes with some risks and dangers, we’ve been doing this long enough to know part of having fun - means breaking lose and sometimes getting hurt (see pics), but…there’s definitely a difference between fun and obnoxiously reckless.

      More careless groups are frequently visiting, driving intoxicated, and allowing their teenagers to whip through wildly and speeding through campsites where small children are playing. There’s even been teenagers double-riding with tiny toddlers hanging on the back, racing, jumping. Spinning donuts in the children’s track area.

      Our last visit just over a month or so ago, on a stickfest event day, a young girl came flying up a two -way hill (where the top is a blind spot), and slammed straight into the front of another teenagers truck!!!

      At night, wheneveveryone left two guys came pulling into our campsite at 1 am in he morning with an empty trailer right nectvyo our bikes with their lights off. Luckily I scared em off turning on the RV exterior lights.

      Sadly, it’s not been like a place for family camping and enjoyment much and more. People are getting wind that it’s a “do-as-you-please,” off-roading area. Nobody overseeing. Not safe- especially for small children.

      We're taking a break for awhile. We've moved to another spot last week. It's a two hour drive, but wow! It was like off-roading utopia!

      We will miss you La Grange. Thank you for many great memories.

      Well Run Campground

      We stayed here in January 2024 and got a Passport America discount. Traveling south on US-101, then US-12 east, our RV GPS took us right to this campground(CG). Check-in was quick and easy, and we proceeded unescorted to pull through site 32 with FHUs. The cement pad was plenty long enough for our 40’ fifth wheel and unhooked F450. The utilities are on the back quarter of the pad. We needed 15’ of sewer hose. The water pressure was okay at about 40 psi. We got 4 bars on Verizon. They have Wifi and you can upgrade for a price to streaming quality. The CG has a small convenience store that sells ice and propane plus wine. This CG is mainly a short-term stay place but there are what seem to be permanent parties plus transient workers with site areas clean and organized. There are a lot of feral cats in this CG. They have a huge fenced dog area in the drainage bowl behind the office that also has solar panels on the outskirts. We did not use the area due to the recent rain. We wished we’d spent a few more days to explore the area, especially the wineries.

      Relaxing weekend getaway

      Campsites are mostly at the water’s edge of the small-ish reservoir that’s main attraction (at least this time of year) appears to be fishing. Porta pottys are clean, no potable water but I loved being able to camp right on the lake and fish just steps from my car. I was in site 12 and I’m glad I did. My dog was mostly not leashed and no one seemed to care. Super chill and cozy but not much to do if you like activity and adventure. Warning: the water crossing is no joke!!!! When I arrived it was about 7” but when I crossed the next day to go into town it was 9-10” high and flowing fast. I was legit scared (I have a Hyundai Kona) but I made it across.
