    Dockweiler Beach RV Park accepts pets at its oceanfront sites situated right along the bike path with ocean views. Pet owners are permitted to bring dogs to this popular beachfront campground, though specific leash restrictions apply throughout the property. The RV park features full hookups with electric, water, and sewer connections for pet owners traveling with their recreational vehicles. Bathrooms are clean and well-maintained, making longer stays with pets more comfortable. Sites are arranged in a parking lot style, packed relatively close together, particularly in the hookup section, while the dry camping area provides more space for smaller RVs. Noise from LAX airport is constant, with planes flying overhead throughout the day and night, though many campers report quickly adapting to the sound.

    Golden Shore RV Resort in Long Beach and Malibu Creek State Park Campground also welcome pets with varying amenities. The bike path in front of Dockweiler extends for miles in either direction, allowing for extensive dog walks along the coastline to Redondo Beach or Santa Monica. The direct beach access provides pets and owners with ample exercise opportunities, though some beach areas may have specific dog restrictions during peak seasons. Fire rings are available on the beach for evening gatherings with pets. Local dining options can be found in nearby El Segundo, which offers a small-town atmosphere with pet-friendly patios. The gated security at Golden Shore RV Resort provides peace of mind for campers with valuable pets and equipment. During summer months, reservations for pet-friendly sites should be secured well in advance as these oceanfront locations fill quickly, especially on weekends.

      Dockweiler Beach RV Park

      Beach, Sunsets, & Airplanes

      Dockweilder is an awesome camping experience if you love the beach and airplanes. With LAX less than .5 miles away, you get the pleasure of plane spotting 24/7. The bike path is in front of the campground and it will take you all the way to Redondo Beach or Santa Monica.

      Check out the local town of El Segundo. It has some great dining options and looks like Mayberry.

      Cell Reception: Great

      Waterfront RV Park

      Waterfront RV Park, CA

      Located in Huntington Beach California. This site is right across the street from the beach. Be careful and aware when staying here. My husband and I had our mountain bikes stolen when sleeping. When we asked for camera footage the owners of the campground claimed the cameras were broken and they couldn’t share the footage. There are many homeless folks living in the area. The showers don’t get hot, but the area is clean. There is a pool and a hot tub and a small dog park. It’s expensive to stay here, but a beautiful spot.

      Hollywood RV Park

      Themed Park!

      First of all, staff was amazing. We were originally supposed to arrive on a Tuesday and we’re not able to make it. Staff shifted our reservation instead of us eating the missed night cost. Also super accommodating allowing us to extend a day longer last minute. Park is tight quarters with 200 spots. Two laundry rooms/bathrooms with showers on site, plus a cute little dog park! We stayed for three nights. Every “road” in the park is themed with California or Hollywood themed decorations and murals. We were parked right next to a Mister Roger’s mural across from the laundry/bathrooms. My only complaint in the noise level at times which is not from the park itself. Helicopters would fly over randomly, sometimes at night and it could be annoying when trying to sleep. Otherwise, absolute GEM of a place!

      Hare School Park

      It’s the sports fields parking lot

      I’ve been here for a couple days and nobody’s mess with us. There’s other people that are staying in another parking lot attached that are homeless in their vehicles mostly cars and vans. I’m in a 25 foot Fleetwood RV. There’s a dog park kind of area with a big field they can run around and just clean up after them.There’s no public bathrooms, but there are trash cans so clean up after yourself please. It’s not tent friendly. I don’t believe.

      Anaheim RV Park - PERMANENTLY CLOSED

      Disney Camping - Clean, Pool, Very Nice Restrooms/Showers

      Anaheim RV Resort is close to Disney and is on the Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART) bus route. They have full hook up sites and room for large rigs - back-in and pull through. They are very pet friendly and even have a dog walking/feeding service (for an extra fee). There is a small pool and hot tub. The restrooms/showers and newly remodeled and very nice! Sites are all level and fairly large. We've stayed here 4 times and will be back again!

      Rolling M. Ranch Campground — Chino Hills State Park

      Beautifully scenic area

      Sprawling lush green hills? Can’t beat Chino Hills State Park.
      The campground itself feels very close together and wide open compared to the space of the park. Gets loud at night if there are too many groups camping. No cell service. Super clean bathrooms and showers.

      PET OWNERS BEWARE: Our dog munched on a frog at this campsite and started foaming at the mouth. We rinsed her mouth out with water and she turned out fine, but a smaller dog or a swallowed frog and she could have died from toxicity.

    Guide to Redondo Beach

    Dockweiler Beach RV Park and several other pet-friendly campgrounds near Redondo Beach provide options for campers seeking coastal California experiences. Situated along the South Bay coastline where temperatures typically range 60-75°F year-round, these campgrounds offer varying levels of amenities and beach proximity. Winter camping often provides more availability with temperatures rarely dropping below 50°F at night.

    What to do

    Beach exploration at Bolsa Chica State Beach Campground: The campground connects to a boardwalk that extends for miles, perfect for walking dogs and enjoying coastal views. "There is live music at the beach bars nearby which was cool. Definitely bring bike. There isn't a lot within walking distance but downtown Huntington Beach and the pier is just a couple miles away," notes Michele H.

    Water activities near Waterfront RV Park: Located across from Huntington Beach, this park offers convenient access to ocean recreation. "We rode bikes along the bike path through Huntington, and went for daily walks as well," shares Zach R. The proximity to water makes it ideal for morning paddling or sunset walks.

    Hiking at Malibu Creek State Park Campground: For those willing to drive 45 minutes from Redondo Beach, this park offers diverse terrain. "The primary trails were open fire roads with off-shoots to lakes, pools, meadows, and more. It was easy to imagine you weren't anywhere close to the city," according to Ryan W. The park features trails for both hiking and mountain biking.

    What campers like

    Oceanfront locations: Many campers praise the beach proximity at multiple campgrounds. At Malibu Beach RV Park, visitors note the premium views: "There's not a bad spot to camp here. Even the ones listed as 'no view' have a view!" says Abby T. The elevated position provides panoramic ocean scenes.

    Clean facilities: Campgrounds in the area maintain good standards for bathrooms and showers. At Golden Shore RV Resort, campers appreciate "very well maintained campground. The spots are groomed and clean when you come in. Great Long Beach location, a nice bike ride along the beach to Naples and the Queen Mary," according to Theo A.

    Pool amenities: Several campgrounds offer swimming pools as alternatives to ocean swimming. "We also liked having the hot tub/pool at the end of the day. Our girls loved swimming and soaking," mentions Zach R. about Waterfront RV Park. These facilities provide options when ocean conditions aren't ideal.

    What you should know

    Noise considerations: Many coastal campgrounds experience noise from roads, airports or other sources. At Bolsa Chica State Beach, one camper warns: "Great location. I mean what can I say to diminish a beach spot for 60 bucks? How about a motorcycle passing right outside your bedroom window at 12,000 rpm every two minutes all night long? Yeah, that'll do it. Bring earplugs and lots of white noise."

    Limited tent options: Many dog-friendly campgrounds near Redondo Beach primarily cater to RVs. At Newport Dunes RV Resort, they do accommodate tents but with specific restrictions: "they have a beach front for group tent camping on the sand, and also have tent camping in the resort. You can camp with RV's, Trailers, tents, and they also rent out cabins," explains Aaron S.

    Security considerations: Some campgrounds have implemented security measures. At Golden Shore RV Resort, one visitor appreciated that "this RV park was gated. Felt safe and secure the whole time I was here, would definitely stay again," according to Dave K. Others may have different security arrangements worth investigating.

    Tips for camping with families

    Activity planning: Look for campgrounds with organized activities for children. At Newport Dunes RV Resort, "They have activities for the kids like arts and crafts, an inflatable obstacle course or you can rent paddle boards or watch a movie on the beach," reports Karissa J.

    Space considerations: Campsite size varies greatly between locations. At Leo Carrillo State Park Campground, "The sites are pretty standard, but they are spacious and have some privacy from neighboring sites. They come with a picnic table and there are coin-operated showers nearby," according to Chanel C.

    Wildlife awareness: Teach children about local wildlife they might encounter. At Malibu Creek State Park, "The wildlife is abundant. There is plenty of birdwatching, and coyotes were wandering through the park and campground without fear. If you have a dog with you make sure they don't try join the pack," advises Ryan W.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection strategy: Choose sites based on specific needs rather than just availability. At Bolsa Chica State Beach Campground, "The spaces aren't huge so if you have a big rig or large trailer it will be tight. Most trailers parked their tow vehicle perpendicular to the space and some barely fit," notes Michele H.

    Hook-up availability: Know what connections will be available at your site. For Newport Dunes, which offers "full hook ups, fun activities, family & pet friendly!" according to Jamie R., the complete utilities make longer stays more comfortable with pets.

    Reservation timing: Popular dog-friendly campgrounds fill quickly, especially during peak seasons. For Anaheim Harbor RV Park, visitors recommend booking deluxe sites when possible: "The standard sites are essentially a large parking spot in a paved parking lot. The deluxe feel more like an RV site with a picnic table and grass. And for only a few bucks more," suggests Jennifer H.
