This was my first time camping, and we chose to book a county-ran campground at Oceano. I wish I…read morehad done my research a bit more and booked a larger site, but I didn't realize that our site was the smallest. The campground comes with a picnic table, fire pit, water hook up, and electricity outlets. There's also a restroom that's somewhat maintained, for showers and toilet use. Showers are $1 for 3 minutes, but there are no coin exchange machines, so be sure to bring your own quarters. Also note, that showers are only operating from 10am-6pm. It gets pretty loud at night, with tons of frogs and birds calling, but hey, that's nature! If you're looking to do tent camping, this probably isn't the best spot. Most people around us were all RV camping, and we definitely felt very out of place. Probably wouldn't do this spot again, but it's close enough to a lot of shops in case you forget something and need to go out. If we had more time, we'd probably explore the area a little more, but the campsite itself was okay.

I don't know why this campground has such negative reviews. This is such a great little campground…read morethat is walking distance to the ocean and the dunes where you can have bonfires, go ATVing, or just go walk on the beach to catch the sunset. We enjoyed an evening here, playing games having a bonfire and then walking to the beach to watch the sunset. They have a good amount of RV spots, and can fit 40ft rigs. They also have ample bathrooms and showers available! Great campground!

I would say a mix between people that work in the area looking for cheap housing and permanent trailers that never leave. I counted three trailers that All had expired registration by more than a few years. The trailer next to us at the end of Bakersfield street had 2022 tags and was completely unkept and a eyesore The man living there had an expired vehicle in his parking spot. There's also only about 6 to 7 feet worth of room between the trailers on Bakersfield, which is absolutely ridiculous and not even to standard code of 10 feet. The place just seems ran down with transient activity in the area.

This RV park has its benefits and drawbacks. Some of the good:…read more1. Location. It is on the dunes and you have access. But its not close to the ocean. So don't think you will camp here and walk to the beach or even to any stores. 2. The hook ups are nice. Bring your own fire ring. 3. I personally thought the staff was great. I saw one staff member correcting a camper- but they deserved it and I am very glad they actually will say something. 4. Your Verizon coverage "can" work but is dependent on the number of people that are using it in the area. Thats not the campgrounds fault. Verizon works great until a million others log on. 5. Horseback riding available. The not so good: 1. Cramped! You are in here like sardines. 2. Not the easiest to get in or out. 3. Its possible to smell the sewage in certain places around the clubhouse. Yuck! 4. The neighbors are close. Really close. You will hear the music and conversations. They weren't bad at all, but be aware. 6. No fire rings. 7. Some of the permanent residents are like sanford and son. You will see some of that. This place isnt bad. Its not great. If they revamped the place and gave it a complete makeover with larger sites and fewer people- I would pay a lot of money to stay here.

This place is a membership campground so you can't request specific sites if you aren't a member. This park is packed with lots of trucks parked along every street with everyone having fun. Each site is gravel with green belts behind. There is tons of green grass and poop bag stands everywhere. The laundry is $2.50 to wash and $2.50 to dry. There is a restaurant with a bar. You can eat inside or out in front. Nice looking arcade, mini golf, shuffle board, horse shoes and a few places that give you access to the beach. The staff said hello everytime they drove by. We had a great time! Pismo Pier is three blocks to the left and there is a 7-11 across the street. We also went to a cool dinner show called Great American Melodrama. There is a coupon in you map booklet. Good chips and salsa at Old Juans Mexican Restaurant too.

Would recommend to people who's okay with camping in the car/RV that don't mind the sandy inconvenience. 4WD/AWD and basic low traction driving knowledge is necessary to get to the camp areas.

We had done this before, and we watched a couple cars get stuck in the sand which we really wanted to avoid. This time either the tide has washed out some of the sand or it have been compacted down by the beach services because there no patches of heavy sand that prevented us from driving the full length of the beach. We then came back near the entranced and parked and sat in the back watching the ocean. Unlike the last time, we left before sunset. But overall the experience was great.

You can rent an open space to park your RV or book one of their cabins. The RV spots offer various sizes for larger or smaller RVs and some come with a fire pit, table chairs, and a set of adirondack chairs for lounging. We rented an RV and reserved spot between the playground and pool; which the kids loved. All of the RV spots come with full plug-in electricity and water connections. If you're looking to leave this kid friendly campground, you're in luck! This location is prime with about Avila Beach being about 3-minutes away, Pismo about 15-minutes, and the Avila Barn being walking distance. Like I said, I'm not a camper, but I could see myself staying here again next summer!

Pros: We like the location for a central point to be able…read moreto go to Hearst Castle, Cambria, Pismo, Morro Bay, everywhere really. Discount if you have Good Sam. The employees are so nice, the ladies in the store, and the guys running around were friendly. They have a well stocked store, and bike rentals that were fun to take on the Bob Jones bike trail. Cons: You are camping right next to the freeway, so it is a little noisy. A lot of kids running around. One night there was a pack of teen or pre-teens out until almost 11:00 being so loud, I was hoping before then someone would come have them quiet down. The showers in the bathroom: there are no "shelves or racks" to put your bottles on and the shower curtains are way too short. The bathroom was completely out of paper towels Friday morning. They don't clean/stock the bathrooms every day. Weeds are growing everywhere, it's just the little things, but it's noticeable. I wish they'd put up fences all the way between all campsites. Flag policy: come on Highway West!! Be consistent!! We were at Costanoa and there was no written flag policy ANYWHERE, and the made us take my No Shoes Nation flag down (Kenny Chesney) and here there was an RV with a military flag and they let them leave that up. The rules had only the American flag was to be flown here -I respect the military-but, the rules are inconsistent at all the Highway West Properties!

But other than that, it was a great stay. We reserved 6 months in advance, and our site was close to the dunes so it was just a short hike to the dog-friendly (leash-on) beach. The sandy beach is solid, so you can ride your bike on the sand for miles, no problem whatsoever. My prior review lists the specifics of the campground. It is a favorite of ours, and we can't wait to come back.

I enjoy taking my dogs for a long walk around this campground and to the ocean, and they love it here too. There are various camping and RV spots (max trailer length of 36) available all year round that you can book 6 months out, but be prepared as they book out extremely quick. This is also a great spot to do some bird watching, squirrel feeding or even see the monarch butterflies when they migrate here in the winter. This is such a good campground, I highly recommend!

Unfortunately I had already made a $500 deposit (signing nothing, and with no advice as to their terrible "no refund" policy). Within 2 1/2 hours I called and cancelled my reservation, and was THEN told about the No Refunds policy with no "grace" period! What? I called my bank, and told them that I had received NO goods, NO services, NO respect, NO value, for my $500. Fortunately Visa Card has now given me credit, and I hope "spanked " Le Sage Riviera for doing this to me! So, my advice is - be VERY wary of these folks, and make no commitment to them until you have the whole picture IN WRITING of what the policies might be.
