Sun Outdoors Wine Country in Paso Robles, Ca
This is a beautiful property. We were there in Spring and the tree blooms were beautiful. Pool is nice and there are two spas (jacuzzi's). This place is well manicured. There is a wine/ cafe place there and it had a band playing while we were there...in the afternoon. Outdoor seating. There were a few food trucks that came and that was a nice convenience. There is a dog park. Restrooms and showers were very nice. They also had a free wine tasting session. There is a small sundry/ gift shop also.

Riverpark RV Resort. Grants Pass, Oregon
Great Spot on the Rogue River. Had full hookups. Staff very helpful with helping to get into spot if you need it. Nice clean restrooms. Laundry room is spacious and has a table where you can do a puzzle or read...or think about why you are sitting the laundry room. Beautiful trees and the grounds are kept nice. We visited in autumn. Not sure how busy it may be in the summer. At this time of year it was very peaceful and quiet. We ended up staying another day as it was so tranquil.
El Chorro Park, San Luis Obispo, Ca
This campground we found to be quite pleasant. There are two RV hookup loops and one tent loop. The sites are listed by size as there isn't overflow parking. It's about 5 miles from Cal Poly and close enough to drive in to town for restaurants, etc. Glamping, right?
It is next to a golf course and also a botanical garden. The gardens are beautiful with sculptures and art throughout.

Foster Park Campground. Ventura, Ca
Great park on between Ventura and Ojai. There are 16 rv sites and also tent camping. It's near Lake Casitas, Ventura and close to Ojai. We had full hook up. Lots of shade trees, public bathroom and a hiking path. There is a very nice bike trail nearby (goes for miles) through the mountains and hills. We enjoyed it here. Quiet and family friendly.

Pismo Sands RV Resort
Nice campground in Oceano, Ca. Quiet, clean and family oriented. The sites are kind of small with a grassy area. With the current environment (Corona Virus), we did a touchless check in. We had a back in spot so we didn't have to share a mutual lawn. They also have cottages for rent. Nice pool and laundry. There is a mini store but was closed. They did however offer ice or chips, etc...just couldn't go inside the store. There is shuffleboard. Some sites have a fire ring and some don't. It is located south of Grover Beach and Pismo Beach. Lots of very interesting things to explore nearby. Beach towns, nature, and culture. We would stay here again if we are travelling up north.

Hobson Park Ventura County
Nice campground on the beach. The ocean front ones are non hook up. You can use RV or tent camp. There are stairs down to the shore. Sometimes (we visited in February), the tide is too high for a beach. We did get a few days of beach, though and enjoyed it very much. Lots of families here and it's also open to the public for day use.
- Hook ups
- Tent camping
- Beach front
- Little cafe for breakfast, lunch, snacks, ice
It was quiet in the evenings. The ocean sounds were great!! The train goes by periodically. I love the train sound. It's also close to many beach choices and a bike path along the shore. One little drawback, I found is that the spaces are tight and parking few. Once you get all relaxed from the ocean sound and view, it'll be okay. One car per site.

Lake Castaic, Ca
Beautiful campground. We went in the beginning of April. There are no hook ups, so keep that in mind. We brought our RV and had the most fantastic lake view. It was uncrowded and very clean. There are restrooms, showers, fishing pier, fish cleaning station and more. You can rent boats at the upper lake. There is tent camping as well. In the summer it can get pretty warm, so you most definitely won't find me there at this time of year. But hey! Other people like the heat. There is a swim beach (seasonal) as well. You can fish from the shoreline near the camping also. It is patrolled by L.A. Sheriff's and it felt pretty safe. I'm not sure how busy it is in the summer, but I imagine it is busy. A great area if you want to come in for a picnic too! Will definitely return.
