Placerville RV Resort & Campground
48 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 20 Tent Sites
Placerville RV Resort & Campground in Shingle Springs, California, offers 48 RV sites, three cabins, and 20 tent sites in the Sierra Nevada foothills, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 121 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout — the most generous length allowance in this tranche. A water slide, pool, hot tub, and mini-golf serve Gold Country travelers.
Forty-eight sites span 30/20-amp back-ins, water-and-electric back-ins, water-and-electric pull-ins, and pull-through categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 121 feet, with picnic tables, BBQ pits, cable TV, and site WiFi. Individual sites are listed by number in several categories, so you can pick your spot. Three cabins and 20 tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side.
An outdoor pool with a water slide anchors the summer, with a hot tub and sauna, mini-golf, an arcade, and a recreation center besides. A pond supports fishing, with a playground, dog park, horseshoes, and strong stargazing across the foothill sky. Pets are welcome.
Shingle Springs sits in El Dorado County on the US-50 corridor between Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe, where Gold Rush heritage meets the Apple Hill agricultural district's orchards and wineries. The elevation trades the Sacramento Valley's summer heat for mountain air.
Directions: from Placerville head west on Highway 50 about six miles — do not exit at Ponderosa Road — then take Exit 39, Shingle Springs Drive north.
Summer and Apple Hill harvest season drive demand. Reserve ahead.
