Vinyl Vineyards

4 RV Sites, 6 Vintage RV Rentals

Vinyl Vineyards in Paso Robles, California, offers six vintage Airstream trailers themed to legendary musicians — Billie, Bowie, Cash, Jagger, Janis, and Zeppelin — alongside dry camping sites including an ADA-accessible option, on 120 acres of working vineyard. Sites take rigs to 50 feet, with a pool, hot tub, and disc golf course on the property. The six themed Airstream trailers are the signature accommodation, each named for the musician it is styled after. Dry camping sites accommodate self-contained rigs to 50 feet with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits, including a dedicated ADA-accessible site — note these are dry sites without hookups, so plan water and power. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. You may receive SMS messages before, during, or after your stay; reply STOP to opt out. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the property, with a disc golf course and walking trails through the vineyard. The dark rural sky makes for strong stargazing, and birding is productive across the acreage. A golf course is nearby, and wine tasting is effectively on site. Pets are welcome. The vineyard sits on the Union Road Wine Trail in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles — the largest wine appellation in California by acreage, where calcareous limestone soils and marine-influenced temperature swings produce Rhône varietals, Zinfandel, and Tempranillo. The trail's boutique wineries built their identity in deliberate contrast to corporate wine tourism. Harvest season and warm-weather weekends drive demand. With six trailers, reserve well ahead.

Three Links Campgrounds

30 RV Sites, 15 Tent Sites

Thirty sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables and site WiFi. Fifteen tent sites and cabins round out the accommodations. Laundry, restrooms, and WiFi handle the practical side, and the campground operates year-round — worth noting at this elevation. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a craft room for indoor hours and hiking, swimming, picnicking, and birding from the property. Skiing and snowboarding are nearby, with a lake and boating close by. The property also serves as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. The campground has run on these 25 wooded acres since 1958, originally established by the California Odd Fellows and Rebekahs and continuing today open to individual travelers, families, and groups. Mi-Wuk Village sits directly on Highway 108 in Tuolumne County, in the canyon country of the upper Stanislaus River drainage — one of the most beautiful and most underappreciated mountain landscapes in California. The Highway 108 and Highway 49 corridors make this a practical base for Twain Harte, Sonora, Jamestown, and Columbia. Summer and ski season both draw — reserve ahead.

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.

Pismo Sands RV Resort

48 RV Sites, 4 Cottages

Pismo Sands RV Resort in Oceano, California, offers 48 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and four cottages on the Central Coast, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 67 feet behind a gated entrance. A single pull-through category means no backing at any site, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, game room, and library. Forty-eight sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 67 feet, with picnic tables. One consistent spec and no guesswork. Two things to know before booking: all RVs must be fully self-contained, and the on-site bathrooms close daily from 1 to 3pm for cleaning. Four cottages round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a game room, library, playground, dog park, basketball, shuffleboard, ping pong, and horseshoes filling the rest. A golf course and wine tasting are nearby. Pets are welcome. The position near the Halcyon Road exit off US-101 puts the Oceano Dunes, Pismo Beach, and Grover Beach minutes away, with the Edna Valley and Arroyo Grande wine country just inland and San Luis Obispo a short drive north. Summer drives the heaviest demand on the Central Coast, with the monarch butterfly grove at Pismo drawing visitors from November through February. Reserve well ahead for June through September.

Blue Lakes Village RV Park

14 RV Sites

Blue Lakes Village RV Park in Upper Lake, CA, offers 14 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp park throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management, and the 40-foot maximum keeps it to mid-size rigs. Laundry and a bathhouse with showers are on site, and pets are welcome with a dog park. The water is why people book. A fishing pier and a beach give guests direct access to Blue Lakes, which stay private to resort guests — a genuinely rare thing in California — with swimming, fishing, kayaking, hiking, and biking from the property. Upper Lake sits in Lake County, in the wine country foothills north of Clear Lake, directly across Highway 20 from the lakes. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Fourteen sites on a private lake means summer fills quickly — reserve well ahead.

Sequoia Resort & RV Park

22 RV Sites, 4 Houses, 1 Apartment

Sequoia Resort & RV Park in Badger, CA, offers 22 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 5 apartment and house rentals, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 30-amp and back-in 50-amp, each carrying water, sewer, and electric. The 40-foot maximum reflects the mountain terrain — check it against your rig before booking. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a library, a dump station, bike rentals, and a community fire pit cover the essentials, with apartments and houses for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome. The property spreads across 377 acres of Sierra Nevada hillside with walking trails, boat docks, horseshoes, hiking, and biking. Badger sits at the gateway to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, and the resort is the closest full-service RV property to the north entrance — a genuine advantage in country where lodging is scarce and the drive in is long. Rates for sites and rentals are on the booking page. Park season books far ahead; confirm your rig length when you reserve.

from $38/night

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.

Willow Springs Resort

24 RV Sites, 8 Motel Rooms

Willow Springs Resort near Bridgeport, California, offers 24 full-hookup back-in RV sites and eight motel rooms in Mono County's Eastern Sierra, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. A Prime back-in category joins two standard back-in tiers, with a pond, library, community fire pit, and laundry. Twenty-four back-in sites run in two standard categories and a Prime tier, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp with site WiFi, sized to 40 feet, with picnic tables. Two things to check before booking: service tops out at 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management, and the 40-foot cap rules out larger coaches. Eight motel rooms round out the lodging for guests without a rig. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A pond supports fishing, with a library, community fire pit, hiking, horseshoes, and volleyball filling the rest. Pets are welcome. The family has run this property for more than six decades, five miles south of Bridgeport, and that continuity shows in how it is kept. The Eastern Sierra is one of the most varied outdoor regions in California, and this stretch has all of it — Great Basin desert, alpine terrain, and volcanic geology within a short drive. Bridgeport Reservoir and the East Walker River hold some of the state's best trout water, Bodie's ghost town sits east, Travertine Hot Springs is minutes away, and Yosemite's Tioga Pass entrance and Mono Lake are both south. Summer and fall are the season in the Eastern Sierra, with trout opener in late April drawing anglers. Reserve well ahead for June through September.
