79 RV Sites, 24 Tent Sites

Sun Outdoors Santa Barbara in Goleta, CA, offers 79 full-hookup RV sites and 24 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in four categories — standard back-in, standard parkview back-in, standard pull-thru, and premium back-in — all carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. If you booked here before, note the name change: Ocean Mesa is now Sun Outdoors Santa Barbara. The resort is rated big rig friendly, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, on-site dining, and a bar. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a hot tub and sauna, a beach, walking trails, horseshoes, and a playground fill the grounds, with hiking, swimming, fishing, boating, wine tasting, and planned activities. Goleta sits eight miles west of downtown Santa Barbara on the Santa Barbara Channel, where the Santa Ynez Mountains drop to the Pacific and the Channel Islands sit on the horizon. Rates by site category are on the booking page. This stretch of coast is among the most in-demand in California — reserve as far ahead as the resort will take it.

Lemon Cove Village RV Park

47 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Lemon Cove Village RV Park in California offers 47 RV sites and 10 tent sites in the Sierra foothills, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year. A Van Life Parking category and a water-only tier join full-hookup and water-and-electric pull-throughs, with an outdoor pool, clubhouse, and general store. Forty-seven sites span pull-thru 30-amp, pull-thru 30/50-amp, water-and-electric 30-amp, water only, and Van Life Parking categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. The Van Life and water-only tiers are genuinely uncommon and right-size for smaller rigs rather than making them pay for space they cannot use. One billing note: rigs 37 feet or longer, or with two or more air conditioners or other high-draw appliances, may be subject to a $10 per night electrical surcharge. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, RV storage, boat storage, and recycling handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a clubhouse, sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, gem mining, and a dog park filling the rest. Boating and a river are nearby, and the property operates as a wedding venue. Lemon Cove is the most convenient RV gateway to Sequoia and Kings Canyon, on the CA-198 approach along the Kaweah River in Tulare County. Summer fills the parks. Reserve well ahead.

Surf Outpost

95 RV Sites, 35 Tent Sites

Surf Outpost in Malibu, California, offers 95 full-hookup RV sites and 35 tent sites on the Pacific coast, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Ocean view, premium ocean view, and XL categories join no-view back-in sites, with beach access across Pacific Coast Highway. Ninety-five back-in sites span no view, no view XL, ocean view, ocean view XL, and premium ocean view categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. The category structure is refreshingly plain about what you are paying for — an ocean view or not, and extra length or not. Thirty-five tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Beach access is on foot: down the driveway, right on PCH, then to the signal and crosswalk at the gas station. Stays of four nights or more in September run 20% off, applied automatically. The beach carries the recreation, with surfing, paddle boarding, swimming, hiking, and horseback riding all available. A dog park sits on the grounds. Pets are welcome. The Malibu coast's surf breaks and the Santa Monica Mountains meeting the Pacific make this one of the most photographed coastlines on earth — and full hookups here are genuinely scarce. Summer is peak on the Southern California coast. Reserve as far ahead as you can.

Yokuts Valley, CA

Camp Ikigai Animal Sanctuaruy 501c3

20 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 100 Tent Sites, 1 Glamping Site, 1 Yurt

Camp Ikigai Animal Sanctuary in Yokuts Valley, CA, offers 20 RV sites, 3 cabins, 100 tent sites, and 2 glamping sites and yurts, with site-delivered WiFi and a barbecue at each site. Sites are back-ins and the camp is rated big rig friendly, but understand what you're booking: this is an off-grid property, so confirm hookups, amp service, and maximum rig length directly with the sanctuary before you arrive, and plan to be self-sufficient. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a gated entrance are on site. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, walking trails, hiking, swimming, picnicking, birding, and genuinely dark Sierra foothill sky for stargazing fill the grounds. What makes this different from any other property in the portfolio is the sanctuary itself: Camp Ikigai is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit farm sanctuary spread across 72 off-grid acres, where horses, sheep, dogs, and cats roam freely and guests stay among them. Yokuts Valley sits in the Sierra Nevada foothills of Fresno County, with a state park, a national park, and a lake all within reach. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Contact the sanctuary about hookups and rig fit before you book.

Yosemite RV Resort

76 RV Sites, 22 Tent Sites

Seventy feet accommodates a long coach with a tow, which is generous for the foothills. Twenty-two tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. One policy to clear first: the resort has a ten-year age restriction on all RVs, though older coaches are reviewed for approval — send a photo to [email protected] before booking. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a clubhouse, playground, horseshoes, and dog park filling the grounds. Pets are welcome. The address is 34094 California State Highway 41, in Madera County where the blue oak and manzanita hills of the western Sierra rise out of the San Joaquin Valley toward the mixed conifer forest. Yosemite's South Entrance at Wawona is 25 miles north, which puts the Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias and Glacier Point within a morning's drive. Summer is peak at Yosemite and the park fills. Reserve well ahead for June through September, and clear RV approval early if your coach is older.
