We have been coming to Campland for a few years now and it is still the best place around San Diego. It has two pools and two hot tubs, as well as great rental equipment and lots of great camping spots!!

This is a beautiful campground with lots of amenities and well laid out with a beautiful view if you pay extra. We had the bay view but as we didn't have a rear window you could only see a bit of the bay from the side window so at $100 a night it was quite expensive. It was a shame... More

We go to this campground every year for the annual "Over the Hill" club vintage car show. We started going when our kids were 2 and 4 years old and they are now just finished with college! The park is clean, lots of shade and has two beautiful pools...one is 85 degrees and perfect for kids to swim in with... More

Campland on the Bay, San Diego—or as my sister likes to call it Tan Diego—is what you get if you mixed a cruise, an RV park, summer day camp and a pre-race Nascar parking lot. It’s not camping. Unless you consider playing PlayStation in your tent and watching DirectTV—dish raised on arrival—on a flat screen TV that pops out on... More

Let me start off and say if your looking for a summer campground with large sites and a lot of peace and quiet this place is not for you. This campground my be crowded in the summer and some of the sites not that large but I would say it is one of the best campgrounds in the western U.S.... More

Stayed in a "standard" site not knowing what we were faced with. The close proximity of the sites was a huge shock. Our space was 20 feet wide with the neighbors so close we had to apologize for our sewer hookup right outside their door. Very uncomfortable! Perhaps short term visitors could be located away from the long term so... More

This campground has a lot of extras but you pay a higher price for it. We picked a standard site for a 24 foot trailer which was $60 per night (section G) plus holiday and site guarantee fees (another $50 ) We live only 1 hour away so we previewed the sites ahead of time. Some are very close...some are... More

We stayed here for 10 days as our last stop to relax a little after 2 months travelling around CAlifornia with our young kids. It is a great location as close to San Diego's main attractions, you can get to mission bay by bike in 2minutes and it has a heated pool, playground and market. Generally very clean. Some parts...

Every year for a several years I vacationed with my husband and 2 granddaughters at Campland. The sites are big. Each site was marked with gravel and had water and electricity. The power supply seemed to work well. The grass was neatly mowed and trimmed. This park is located in the heart of San Diego. The park contained lots of... More
