This a quaint RV park with limited shirt term RV spots. It is about 45 minutes to Calaveras, 15 minutes to Jamestown Railroad, and 2 hours to get to the Yosemite Valley. It is a very quiet place to stay. Spots are a little short, so with our tuck pulled in, there wasn't much space. However, this wasn't a trip where we just hung out at the camp ground. From the Sacramento area, there are a few ways to get here. Check the map and directions ahead of time so you know how you're driving and are comfortable with the roads and pulling a trailer.

The 49er RV Ranch is an amazing place to stay! I will never forget the kindness of the owners and maintenance when our trailer broke a leaf spring hanger. They were gracious and helpful while we repaired the trailer. One of my favorite things about this park is it is clearly family owned. You can also tell how much they care about it. The grounds are well maintained and it is such a fun atmosphere with the gold mining theme throughout. It is also a great location. It is easy to get to many of the amazing places to see in the area. I highly recommend 49er RV Ranch!

We really enjoyed our stay at 49er ranch. The staff are very friendly. We walked along the road into Columbia historic park, took around 15 mins. We panned for gold at the park which was a great experience. Our plot was by the road, so there was a little noise but not too disturbing. The facilities are clean, and we were really pleased to be able to use the laundry and have wifi here. Would recommend!

I was in a permanent spot, and it was very quiet, and secluded. The staff there are the absolute best! The manager is very knowledgeable and understanding. It's a great location for a weekend getaway.
