Overall, we had a great time. Would we come again? Sure!…read more I'll start with the cons. The restrooms were not as clean as I thought they'd be. Not sure if it's management or inconsiderate campers (who's to know). The wood they sell doesn't burn... super weird. I used 4 fire starters, a torch lighter, cutting the wood into smaller pieces, stoking the fire... NOTHING would work. The wood would get black, but it would not ignite. Now for the pros. It was very quiet. Peaceful even. We stayed in campsite 46 and it was quite spacious! We were far from the restrooms and playgrounds. Enjoyed the breeze. Initially I was scared we might get the smell from the river, but we didn't. They allow pets, however... the land might not be as dog friendly. There are A LOT of fox tails and other not-so-fun weeds that get stuck in their paws and or fur. I had to go to Walmart to get some gauze (if you don't have dog shoes you can use gauze as an alternative, just be careful not to make them too tight) to cover my toy poodles paws because it was really bad. The hikes were a treat. Hopefully you run into some horses on your nature walk. Staff was friendly... It is dry camping, so no hookups. $29/night I saw a lot of people with bikes. We had a nice trip. Tent camping can be a lot work, but man is it fun! Tips: 1) Bring ear plugs, helicopters can be a little noisy 2) if your site is far from the restrooms, bring an emergency toilet. Super easy to make w the Walmart porta potty bags, a 5 gallon bucket and a pool noodle to go around the edge of the bucket. 3) bug repellent around your tent 4) on the sdparks website, if you see some sites labeled 'EQ' it stands for equestrian (those sites have stables for horses)

We recently spent 3 days / 2 nights in one of the resort's bayfront cottages (there are only six of…read morethese available). The cottage can accommodate up to six guests, but our stay was just for me, my wife, and our wheaten terrier. This review reflects our experience specifically as cottage guests, since those staying in RV spaces may have a very different experience. It was also our first visit to this RV resort, and we did not participate in many of the on-site activities. That said, we truly enjoyed our stay. The resort was very clean, the staff was welcoming and engaging with guests, and we appreciated how dog-friendly the property is. The location is also excellent -- conveniently close to the I-5 freeway, nearby walking and bicycling trails, downtown Chula Vista, and the newly built Gaylord Resort property less than half a mile to the south. While amenities such as the pickleball courts, swimming pool, hot tubs, and putting green looked inviting, we did not personally use them during this visit. We ate dinner at the on-site café both evenings, and every dish we ordered was reasonably priced, generously portioned, and served fresh and hot. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout. We tried the Baja Burger, Fish & Chips, Steak & Frites, Cheesesteak, crinkle-cut fries, pretzel buns, and churros -- all were delicious, and we would happily order them again without hesitation. Our bayside cottage was clean, well maintained, and offered beautiful views of the wildlife preserve between the resort and San Diego Bay. The two-bedroom layout provided more than enough space for us and our medium-sized dog. We especially enjoyed the fire pit, along with the covered first-level patio and uncovered second-level patio facing the bay. Although we didn't use the barbecue grill, it was spotless and clearly ready for guests to use for grilling steaks, burgers, hot dogs, or anything else they wished. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would absolutely consider returning for another local staycation.

Amira, JoAnna, Rose, & Diane who manages the groups, all were responsible for making our stay comfortable the entire time. Then there is Steve the smiling maintenance manger, " sweet, responsive & attention-to-detail, Kibbie" and dear kind Jorge who found my wallet and husband. The folks at the cafe and bar were enjoyable to be around. All's I can say is we are grateful as can be and returning for 2 months next year. The sunrises and incredible sunsets across from Living Coast Nature Center and bay, the 26 mile bike path from the park to Coronado, the neighbors, holy moly what fabulous hood. The vibe and cleanliness of the entire place is far above others we've been to. All of this was topped by a kind gesture made by Modi, one of the cleaning professionals for the cabins, she gave me the star experience. One day I needed a pvt place to join friends during a long distance celebration of life. "Modi" (I hope Im spelling her name correctly,) with ultimate compassion she showed me a quiet spot I could be by myself. Then came back after cleaning the cabin with a cup of tea! I trust she will be rewarded and not reprimanded for extending such consideration and tenderness. Also we lucked out being here for the month and joining the Pleasure-Way owner's annual rally. Being close to trolley allowed us to get around easily with bike or on foot. Fantastic clean new playground near shuttle to Living Coast! The only thing that is missing is a place to put your shampoo and essentials in the showers. All in all our month was a tremendous experience.

We will be back as soon the summer hits. Walking distance to a beachy peninsular area. Onsite cornhole, chess, & connect four are in the hang area. There are trains all day long but never found it to be a major issue. The loudest noise is the duly and diesel trucks that are onsite inside camp. You can hear the ocean mostly.

When I was a kid most Easter's & Birthday parties were here. One park has a pier to fish the other has a loading deck for boats. When I was a teenager I came here as well but not for family gatherings but to hang out with friends. And it's a good spot to bring girls late at night & you know....play BINGO in the back seat :) the first park has alot of parking spots for that. Now that I'm a dad & family man I come again for birthday parties & also just to hang with family to grill & see the low riders on weekends. My favorite reason to come tho is to see the Sunsets with my daughters, have a late picnic, listen to music & just watch the sun set, love it. Me & my family's favorite park in the South Bay hands down. Now with the Gaylord Resort next door the park looks better & is extended. We will continue to go & see those sunsets & one day I'll bring my grandkids here too. See you soon J Street Park.

Of course the big feature of this park nice boat launching ramp. On my last visit I saw a squadron of pelicans fly past several times. Each time by the time I got my phone out they were gone. They usually do a good job keeping the grounds and restroom clean.
