Wouldn't stay again

Lukewarm showers, can't drink the water at campsite due to heavy metals. Reverse osmosis on site. Not really worth the money you pay considering all the free options nearby.

Unsafe water

You get what you pay for and this park is adequate at best for the price. It is old and clearly in decline. Beware, the pictures and term resort are misleading. They cater to full time RV-ers and have very few rules for keeping sites clean and orderly. Many of the full timers have excessive junk, garbage, toys, vehicles, etc. Cluttering their sites. The residents and staff are pleasant, quiet, and respectful of your privacy and space. It is gated but you will need to pay a $20 CASH (no credit/debit) deposit for a key card. Well behaved dogs are allowed off leash but there are not many dogs in residence. There is a large dog run but it was VERY overgrown and we felt not usable due to insect and flea/tick concerns. Most important to note the water (sourced from a well) is NOT SAFE to drink or cook with due to excessive arsenic and fluoride. There are however 3 locations in the park with reverse osmosis filters to fill water jugs. The water is safe for bathing and dishes but does have a large amount of sediment and discoloration. It is severe enough that our onboard filter was not sufficient, it left rust colored residue in our porcelain toilet, and for the first time ever we had to add an inline filter as well. Laundry facilities are available but due to poor water quality we chose to do laundry in town. In addition California is in a severe water crisis yet leaking faucets are prevalent here and some full time residents run sprinklers at their sites. Two of these sprinklers near us ran around the clock for at least 48 hours straight. This park was sufficient for our needs for the week we were here, but I can not recommend it nor would I return. We camped at Oasis Palms RV Park in a Motorhome.

Great long term staying!

Managers are friendly and it’s a very relaxed, well maintained park. Pool is open 24/7 and there are showers and laundry on site. Very friendly staff and a great location to live.

Great spot to explore Salton Sea from

The folks at the front desk were so helpful and getting me in to the RV park after hours as it is gated. The only challenge was the highway noise. But it’s a sweet spot.

A place to stop for the night on your way somewhere else…

We pulled in at 5:30 pm. The “in” gate was locked, so we had to back up and go through the “out” gate which was open. Our reservation package was not available to us. Typically after hours they will have the camp info and site number in a box or tapped to the office… not here. We finally found a number in the email sent to us when we made the reservation, and we were able to get our site number. It was dark by the time we drove through the parks dirt paths to a cement pad, with full hookups. We setup had a good night playing cards as a family. In the morning light we realized this was a spot that looks like a lot of people live at full time. There was broken down trucks cars, and old RVs lined up in the back.. was kind of disappointing considering the Salton Sea is right there and this was the the only spot worth staying at. Oasis is a place to spend the night with full hookups, but don’t expect a lot… it is what it is.

Oof… don’t do it!

Yikes… I found this place while searching on Google Maps and the website does NOT match what this park is actually like. It’s very unkempt, understaffed, and smells so. bad. It’s next to a highway and a date farm. The front desk person gave us the wrong code to get in after hours and we couldn’t get a hold of anyone to get us in. We finally figured out that we could just climb over the small 2 ft wall and activate the other side to get the gate to open. It is not worth $40. Oh! And they do not accept Passport America!
