I've now come here twice, it's an awesome spot. It's $12 dollars per car per night and the…read moreproprietors charge $6 per bundle of firewood. There are restrooms (bring toilet paper) and cold showers. It's a large dirt lot on a bluff overlooking the beach. Be careful of mosquitoes during the night (I got eaten alive my first night, but was prepared and didn't get bitten the second time I went). I'd strongly recommend hitting up a Soriana or Calimax (Mexico's major grocery/department stores) in Rosarito before you get there for firewood (it's cheaper there), beer, tequila, soft drinks and snacks. There is a little shop in a hotel to the south of the campgrounds that sells liquor but at twice the price of the aforementioned stores. There is an Oxxo (think 7/11) at the entrance of the campgrounds that you can get beer and snacks at regular (low) prices. There are also two little food carts next to it that you can get cheap food but aren't always open. Too the best of my knowledge there are 4 restaurants/bars in the town, all to the south of the campgrounds. My favorite is Lighthouse which had great views, two TVs that show American sports, $3 tacos, $4 Margaritas, $3 beer. For the fishers out there, this is a great spot. The waves weren't huge and I did get a bunch of hits while fishing, hooked one but it snapped the line. I'd recommend using a Carolina rig with shrimp or clams/mussels. I wanted to use San fleas but they were surprisingly hard to find (I spent fifteen minutes and could only find two).if you do catch something, the Lighthouse will fillet and cook it for you. For the surfers out there, this seems like a good spot for consistent waves but I didn't see any huge ones. You can also rent surfboards and boogie boards at the entrance to the campgrounds. And lastly, if you decide car camping isn't for you, you can get good rooms at the hotels for between $55-$200 dollars. I stayed one night in the hotel above the towns liquor store for $55. It had an ocean view and private patio, two twin beds, not heated showers though. La Fonda has the best rooms but the cheapest is almost a $100 with no ocean view (but their proxy rooms do look good with ocean views). Come out to this spot, it's an extremely good vacation for the price. P.S. Also, you'll need a car which you can get insured in San Ysidro, Ca. The main highway to get there has tolls, which are $2 per stop, remember to have singles on you (it's between 2-3 tolls to get down, same going back).

Now for the cons. The campground definitely caters to a heavily Hispanic crowd, and the overall atmosphere just wasn't really our scene. There was a lot of loud Mexican music (Banda) playing throughout the campground. Thankfully, they now have quiet hours after 10 PM, which definitely helped. Another disappointment was the beachfront site. I paid $310 a night specifically to be right on the beach and enjoy the view, but right across from our site there was a large group with multiple tents and probably 10-15 people staying in each. For that kind of nightly rate, that really wasn't the beachfront experience or view I expected. There were also a few groups whose behavior made us uncomfortable, especially with kids around. We noticed gang-style signs, whistling back and forth, and other behavior that just didn't create a very family-friendly feeling for us. Lastly, I think the campground really needs better security and enforcement inside the property. At night, there were drunk guys trying to do wheelies on golf carts and driving around in ways that felt genuinely unsafe, especially with children and families walking around. With all that said, we stayed over Labor Day weekend, so I understand that it was probably much busier and crazier than a normal weekend. The location itself has a lot going for it, and I'd definitely be willing to give it another chance on a non-holiday weekend when it's hopefully quieter, less crowded, and a little more relaxed.

We spent 3 nights here in August of 2026 and were delighted that we did. It's an oasis in downtown Oceanside. The staff are delightful, the resort is very will organized and well maintained. There's a locked gate to enter a very short path to Buccaneer Beach. Spaces are concrete paved and the utilities are perfectly positioned. My only comment would be that there's not much room between spaces so it's tight, but still very maneuverable. Keep in mind, this is prime real estate close to the beach, so it's expected that they need to make the best use of their acreage. Paradise is a very neat place to get away.

We were really disappointed with our recent stay. This was our second visit, but both nights we…read morewere kept awake by a cottage across from us that had DJ/karaoke equipment, large speakers OUTSIDE and hosted a loud party that went until around 12:00 am. Legitimately the absolute WORST singers we have ever heard. Think screeching drunk idiots yelling into a microphone while you are trying to enjoy your fire pit and relax. The most frustrating part was that we called staff and were told that since quiet hours didn't start until 11:00 p.m., nothing could be done regardless of how loud it was. The party also appeared to include excessive underage drinking, which was concerning at a family resort. We came here expecting a fun, relaxing family vacation, not two nights of disrupted sleep. It's unfortunate because we enjoyed our first stay, but this experience definitely makes us think twice about returning.

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.

Some of the best beach camping can be foun d at South Carlsbad State Beach…read more Reservations are not the easiest to get. You've got to get online early and keep at it. Luck and perserverance help. If you do snag a spot, you will find great camping sites on the bluff with absolutely stunning views.

Carlsbad is a beautiful city with a lot of nice restaurants and little shops so I opted to try the…read morebeach here today rather than Oceanside where I usually go. I lucked out and found a super close parking spot in the neighborhood across the street. The beach itself was VERY short compared to sand length at other beaches so people were almost on top of each other. There was a pretty intense drop off about half way down the sand so it limited space for people to put down their stuff and lay out. I'm not sure how normal it is at this spot but there was a TON of rocks. It was way too much to be able to enter the water without having them beating your feet and ankles. My friend was bleeding after trying to check out the water. The surf was also a little intense that day so I'm wondering if that had any effect on the rock situation? This was a very clean beach with restrooms at the bottom of the ramp from the street so it did have that going for it but we decided to leave and head for a beach where we could safely go into the water that day. I'll have to come back another time to get a better idea.

If we needed something immediately was brought to us. I love that they have an adult only Jacuzzi.. staff was incredibly nice and kind. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it. I do wish the café was open later 1:30 PM on some of the days during the week. I also love that it's very pet friendly. My dog is 15 and has terminal cancer, this cabin was the perfect way for her to enjoy our camping trip. Yes, there are mosquitoes but everywhere has mosquitoes. We used mosquito spray and we were fine. Looking forward to coming back.

The pool was very large and you could walk right in it as if walking into a lake (cool design). There was an adult only hot tub as well as an everybody hot tub, this was nice to get a break from the kids the first night. But the second day it was in desperate need of cleaning and I only got in for 5 minutes. The kids enjoyed the jumping pillows but it gets very hot in the sun so keep that in mind when choosing the time of day for that activity. The staff was friendly, the fish and chips from the shack were delicious, we had an enjoyable stay. The eco tent slept 6 of us comfortably and we made use of the fire pit and outdoor table and chairs. The only real complaint is that the pool area needed to be cleaned more often and that this place is a bit overpriced for the accommodations.

If you enjoy dark sky or full moon, Anza- Borrego Desert State Park is the place to go!…read moreLast June, we ventured to Borrego Palm Canyon Campground for camping, expecting a dark sky and starry night but instead encountered a full moon that turned the desert into a magical scene. The moonlight created an almost mystical atmosphere, making the desert feel like another planet. We set up our tent beside a stone ramada with a table and fireplace. The cleanest toilet we've ever seen was just steps away, which was a luxurious touch. Since it wasn't peak season, typically from March to April when wildflowers are in bloom and again from autumn onward, the park was quieter. We checked in with the DIY machine at the entrance of the campground, and friendly ranchers were around to offer help if needed. One rancher suggested that if we wanted to hike, we should start early and finish by 8:30am before the temperatures began to rise. ( Just a tip: download a campsite map beforehand because there's no internet service in the park) The desert, lit up by the moon, looked like something from another world. Rugged rock formations and the wide open space felt never ending, and with the moonlight highlighting the cool details of the landscape. The desert was so quiet and empty, It felt like the world had melted away, leaving just us and the serene, mystical surroundings.. Next morning, the heat cut our hike short with our cat, and it was a bit of an ordeal. Cats can be more sensitive to the heat, and she had a breathing issue and gasping for air right after we started hiking. We had to quickly rushed back to the car to help her cool down. So just be aware if you plan to bring your pets along. Despite this, that night remained a magical mix of peace and wonder, a cherished experience that I'll never forget.

The campground is incredibly beautiful, well-maintained, and spotless. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how welcoming and well kept everything was. What truly made our experience exceptional was the staff. Every employee we encountered was friendly and helpful, but Brian especially stood out. He was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and eager to share information about the campground and surrounding activities. His recommendations helped us make the most of our trip and made navigating the area so much easier. We had an absolute blast tubing down the beautiful river, and there was no shortage of fun for the whole family. The splash pad will be a huge hit when we come back with the kids, and the spacious campsites right along the water made for the perfect camping experience. We also had the pleasure of speaking with John, one of the managers, who was equally kind, courteous, and helpful. It is clear that the staff truly care about their guests and take pride in making every visit memorable. La Jolla Indian Campground is truly a hidden gem. Between the stunning scenery, clean facilities, amazing river access, and outstanding staff, it exceeded all of our expectations. We cannot wait to come back and create even more memories here. Highly recommend!

Where to begin. Stayed there last weekend in my 30 foot travel trailer. First the good (and only…read moregood). RV spots are pretty level and easy to get in. That's all. The bad. Tow my RV with a Ram 2500 diesel. The wife was coming up Saturday to stay a few hours and hang with the kids. She drove the hour and a half. Got to the gate and she was told that she couldn't stay, that they were full and no day use passes were being sold. I tried to explain I paid $200+ for my camp spot (which was big enough for three rvs) and could easily have her park well within my spot. They denied that and said no, she could park off in overflow and walk down. But they did say if she wanted to stay the night she could pay $25 extra. WTF. We just took her to lunch and she went home. There is a nice river flowing through the camp. Nice if you don't mind sharing it with thousands of people tent camping on top of each other. There were more tattoos and foul language floating around. Not to mention loud tent camper music, car alarms, yelling up until 10pm and then immediately at 7am again. Disgusting groups. They apparently have no limits on tent campers parking all over but RV spaces are limited to one rig and a pull vehicle. Amenities? Yeah right. Pool was closed, water splash pad was closed, bathrooms flooded and muddy, and lines to use them (especially showers). In the evening the only fun we had was watching the trashy people wait in line to use a nasty bathroom and shower -20-30 people deep at times. They even took the liberty to park in front of our trailer and vehicle so we couldn't leave. Thanks. This is the only campground I've ever been at where three tribal police officers patrol full time because the people staying there are ... trashy. Great concept for a campground but the clientele have totally messed this up. Stay at your own risk.
