Blue Lakes Village RV Park

14 RV Sites

Blue Lakes Village RV Park sits directly across California Highway 20 from Blue Lakes in Lake County, Northern California, a small private resort tucked into the wine country foothills north of Clear Lake where the pace slows and the water is the center of daily life. The lake is private to resort guests, and the combination of direct waterfront access and a campground designed for campers who want to actually use the water rather than just park near it sets Blue Lakes Village apart from most RV parks in the Northern California lake country. Full hookup sites serve RV guests, and the resort's amenities lean into the lake experience: a private beach and dock give guests a direct launch point for kayaking, swimming to the rope swing, fishing from the dock, or simply jumping in on a summer afternoon. The property includes a fenced dog park, hammocks, BBQ pits, camping games, coin-operated laundry, a community garden, and resort-wide WiFi. Hot showers ensure the transition from lake to campsite is as comfortable as the experience of getting in the water in the first place. Blue Lakes sits in a long, narrow valley in the Lake County hills, surrounded by oak and manzanita terrain that holds the warmth of the Central California summer while staying noticeably cooler than the Sacramento Valley floor below. Lake County is California's least densely populated wine region—a place where the volcanic soils and high elevations produce Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Zinfandel largely without the weekend crowds and tasting room queues that define Napa and Sonoma. The lakes here are spring-fed and clear, the kind of water that makes you want to get in it rather than just look at it from the shore. Clear Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake entirely within California, is a 20-minute drive south and supports excellent bass fishing, kayaking, and birdwatching along its extensive tule marsh shoreline. Lake Mendocino, formed by Coyote Valley Dam on the East Fork Russian River, is a similar distance north and adds boating, swimming, and hiking on Cow Mountain Recreation Area trails that climb the ridges above the reservoir. The town of Lakeport on Clear Lake provides restaurants, a lakefront city park, and the Lake County Museum's collection of Pomo and Wailaki basketry that is among the finest in California. Blue Lakes Village operates through the Northern California camping season with summer the peak period for lake swimming and water recreation. The resort accommodates both short-term campers and long-term guests on weekly and monthly arrangements, making it a flexible option for extended stays in the Lake County hills. The tiny home and retro RV accommodations available for overnight rental give the property a boutique character that goes beyond the standard RV park, and the private dock and beach ensure that arriving without a kayak is not a reason to miss out on what makes this particular lake destination worth visiting.

Beach RV Pleasure Point

15 RV Sites

Tucked between Rodeo Creek and Corcoran Lagoon at 2505 Portola Drive on the East Side of Santa Cruz, Beach RV Pleasure Point is a boutique, 16-site RV park that puts the most famous surf breaks in the Santa Cruz area—Pleasure Point's The Hook, The Point, and 38th Avenue—literally steps from your door, with the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk 10 minutes away and the redwood forests of the Santa Cruz Mountains providing the afternoon cooling that makes this stretch of the Central California coast one of the most livable outdoor environments in the state. Locally owned and operated with attention to site quality and guest service that a 16-site property can provide in ways that larger parks cannot, Pleasure Point has developed a following among serious surfers, Santa Cruz regulars, and travelers who have learned that the East Side's residential beach character rewards camping at a scale the city's more commercial campgrounds cannot replicate. All 16 sites provide full hookups with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer service, accommodating rigs from 25 to 60 feet in length. Complimentary WiFi supports remote work for guests staying during the week, and clean bathroom and shower facilities with strong hot water and pressure serve all site types. A communal fire pit creates the evening gathering space that beach camping naturally generates, and the on-site dog park accommodates the traveling pets that make so many RV journeys genuine family affairs. Online check-in streamlines the arrival process, and the locally owned operation's personal service creates the kind of direct guest communication that matters when you're navigating a small coastal city with a specific activity agenda. Pleasure Point is Santa Cruz's quintessential East Side surf neighborhood—a stretch of Portola Drive between the Capitola border and the city center lined with surf shops, coffee roasters, fish tacos, and the street-level culture that develops when a community genuinely organizes itself around surfing as a way of life. The breaks at Pleasure Point have been producing world-class waves since the 1960s, and The Hook remains one of the most reliable right-hand point breaks in Northern California—accessible on foot from the campground for guests who surf and worth watching for those who don't. The Esplanade along East Cliff Drive provides the cycling, running, and walking route that connects Pleasure Point to the Boardwalk and Seabright Beach. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk—California's oldest surviving amusement park, operating since 1907—anchors the beach scene at the Municipal Wharf with classic rides including the Giant Dipper wooden roller coaster, a National Historic Landmark, and the Looff carousel. The natural bridges and tide pools of Natural Bridges State Beach, Wilder Ranch State Park's coastal prairie and redwood canyon trails, and the Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park's old-growth grove in the San Lorenzo River canyon provide the natural recreation counterpoints to the surf culture and boardwalk experience. Capitola Village, adjacent to the east, adds its own beach-town charm with independent restaurants and the colorfully painted cottages along Capitola Beach. Beach RV Pleasure Point operates year-round in Santa Cruz's mild, fog-influenced coastal climate, where summer temperatures hover in the 60s and early 70s and winter rarely drops below 45°F. The fog that cools the summer afternoons burns off quickly on many mornings, leaving the kind of clean Central Coast light that makes the surfing, cycling, and tide-pooling that define a Santa Cruz stay consistently rewarding. Advance reservations are essential for weekend and summer stays in a 16-site park with a loyal repeat guest base. Book your site at Beach RV Pleasure Point and spend your mornings checking the surf report and your afternoons on the East Side in one of California's great coastal communities.

Saddle Mountain

16 RV Sites

Saddle Mountain in Carmel, California, offers 16 full-hookup RV sites on 89 acres of wooded forestland off Carmel Valley Road, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs sized to 30 feet. Popular, Popular XL, and Premium categories join cabins and luxury tents, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, and sports courts. Sixteen back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV, sized to 30 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. The 30-foot cap is the key planning detail — this suits smaller trailers and vans rather than large coaches, and the three tiers let you match site to rig. Cabins and luxury tents round out the lodging, and both come with beds, linens, pillows, towels, and washcloths; cabins have central heating and air conditioning as standard. Restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with sports courts, basketball, ping pong, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, and a playground across the acreage. Stargazing is strong under the forest canopy, and wine tasting and a golf course are nearby. Pets are welcome. The 89 acres of private oak, Monterey pine, and coastal redwood sit five miles from Highway 1 and 30 miles up the coast from Big Sur. That distance from the highway is what makes the seclusion real rather than nominal, while Carmel-by-the-Sea, Point Lobos State Reserve, and the 17-Mile Drive stay within easy reach. Summer is peak on the Monterey Peninsula. With 16 sites, reserve well ahead.

Chinook RV Resort

15 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Framed by towering coast redwoods and positioned along the U.S. Highway 101 corridor near Klamath in Del Norte County, Chinook RV Resort offers a natural retreat at the intersection of the Klamath River and the Pacific Coast—one of Northern California's most scenically distinctive settings and a prime gateway for exploring the old-growth redwood forests that define the region's character. The combination of riverside proximity, towering tree canopy, and immediate access to Redwood National and State Parks makes the resort a compelling basecamp for guests drawn to Northern California's redwood coast. The resort accommodates guests in RV sites, rental cabins, and tent sites, providing lodging options suited to different camping styles and group preferences. An on-site lake with a lakefront fire gathering area serves as the social hub of the property in the evenings, where guests collect to unwind after days spent on the trails and beaches of the surrounding park system. The property's compact, nature-forward character gives it a quieter atmosphere compared to larger resort operations elsewhere along the Highway 101 corridor, and the lakefront fire setting is among the most atmospheric features of an evening spent at the resort. Redwood National Park—combined with Prairie Creek Redwoods, Del Norte Coast Redwoods, and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Parks—forms one of the most intact old-growth redwood ecosystems remaining on the Pacific Coast, and Chinook RV Resort sits in close proximity to several of the system's most rewarding access points. Fern Canyon in Prairie Creek, where vertical canyon walls are carpeted in five-finger ferns, is accessible for wading hikes during summer. Enderts Beach offers a secluded cove with tide pools and driftwood-covered shores, and High Bluff Overlook provides sweeping coastal views and seasonal gray whale watching during winter and spring migration along the coast. The town of Klamath straddles the Klamath River at its mouth, and the river's lower section is productive for salmon and steelhead—a significant draw for anglers who pair a resort stay with fishing on one of California's premier coastal rivers. The Trees of Mystery attraction in Klamath, featuring a gondola ride through old-growth canopy and a Native American museum, adds a family-friendly option close by. The Redwood Coast Music Festival in Eureka brings jazz, blues, and folk performances to the coast each April for guests timing their visit to the spring shoulder season. Chinook RV Resort is best positioned for late spring through early fall visits, when the redwood parks are fully accessible and the coastal climate is most accommodating for outdoor activity. Summer fog is common along the Del Norte coast, moderating temperatures but sometimes limiting visibility at coastal overlooks during morning hours. Reservations are recommended well ahead of summer and fall peak periods, when demand for Redwood National Park-adjacent accommodations consistently outpaces available supply along this stretch of the Northern California coast. The property's lakeside social setting and its position within the redwood park network make it a well-rounded Northern California basecamp for guests who want both active trail access and a relaxed evening atmosphere at the end of each day.
