This place is absolutely amazing. The staff, Rhonda and Beth in particular have been nothing short of spectacular. Their kindness, willingness to help, top tier professionalism, and genuine sincerity in assuring that I have the best experience possible has placed an indelible impression upon my heart and has reassured me that God still has some really good people left on this planet.
I highly recommend anyone who desires to enjoy the great outdoors to stop by and visit for a time. I assure you, you won't regret it.

Wonderful rv park with lots of amenities- pool, jacuzzi, game room, country store, mini golf etc. in a beautiful high desert setting surrounded by mountains. Depending on where you are in the park, you may hear cars intermittently from the road and the trains that go by especially in section K but the sites are enormous and private so its very nice. Some areas like section N may at times have whiffs from the sewers but have a stunning view especially edge sites and best wifi up here. Its really a lovely huge rv park with nice bathrooms and showers, quiet and peaceful and it feels safe and secure as its also gated . There are mostly full hookups but there are some nice tent sites particularly along the river ( may be almost dried out in off season) and its also a good area to explore northern los angeles like universal studios and magic mountain eg. We particularly love to drive 15 min to Vasquez rocks - an otherworldly park used in several scifi movies - and we boulder/hike.

Unfortunately there are a lot of very trashy people who regularly stay in the campground. There are always belligerent drunk people trying to start fights with people. There are constantly off leash dogs who try to attack other people and dogs. There was someone who lit a trailer on fire trying to unalive the occupants inside it, which caused a tree to catch fire and the campground to be evacuated. It’s not a safe place for families. I’m from out of state and have stayed there when in town visiting my family, but with all the violence I keep seeing, I would never stay there if I were a woman, or if I had children with me.
