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.

The gold rush mining history that shaped the town is visible throughout the Highway 49 corridor, with Calaveras Big Trees State Park's giant sequoias, Mercer Caverns, and the Sierra foothill wine country all close — and Yosemite within a longer day's reach.

Clear Lake Campground

39 RV Sites

Clear Lake Campground in Clearlake, California, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites on Cache Creek with 30-amp service, taking rigs to 40 feet, plus a boat ramp, kayak and boat rentals, and an outdoor pool. Established in the 1950s, it sits on the sole natural outlet of Clear Lake — the largest natural freshwater lake entirely within California. Thirty-six sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp in back-in, creekside back-in, and pull-through configurations sized to 40 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Rigs longer than 40 feet will not fit, and the 30-amp service is worth noting for guests running high-draw appliances. Laundry, restrooms, and showers handle longer stays, and WiFi reaches the property. Water access is the campground's core. A boat ramp gives direct entry to the creek and lake, and boat and kayak rentals are available on site for guests who arrive without their own. Fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, and swimming all run from the property, with an outdoor pool as the managed alternative. A playground serves families, and hiking, biking, ping pong, and birding fill out the rest. Pets are welcome. Cache Creek carries bass and catfish, and Clear Lake's position on the migratory corridor concentrates birdlife through spring and fall. Note the lake experiences blue-green algae blooms in some summer periods, which affects swimming conditions. Clearlake sits 90 miles north of San Francisco on Highway 20, in Lake County's wine country and volcanic highlands. The campground has drawn returning Bay Area families for seven decades. Summer is peak — reserve ahead, and check current lake conditions when planning swimming.
