Cute hidden gem in Calaveras County! No frills but plenty of charm, animal and family friendly fun! They sell wood, have restrooms and showers. (Bring quarters for the clean, hot shower😃) Wildlife frequently comes through and is very exciting! The owners are the Best! They will treat you like family, highly recommend staying here.

Had a great time with family here. Perfect way to end summer. Craig was super friendly at check in and Ed was great at taking us to our spot and guiding us in. Larger RVs like ours (39’) are kind of limited but space 19 was perfect for us. No AT&T at all but Verizon and T-Mobile worked.

Golden pines offered nice amenities, like well kept restrooms, some showers with hot water, and a washing machine if necessary. Never used the pool but it also looked well maintained. The campsite we used was closer to the back, and we felt that it was a good fir for quieter groups looking for peace in the forest.

We were really impressed by Golden Pines. The park is beautiful, quiet, and very well maintained. You can tell the owners, and camp host Jeff, really take pride in creating a high quality RV experience. Our kids loved the pool and riding around camp on their bikes. It’s in amazing proximity to all the area has to offer. We cannot wait to go back!

We tent camped here for a night. Super nice grounds! Very clean and quiet. Our tent site was under some nice trees and spaced nicely from other sites. Flush toilets weren’t too far away and nice and clean. We’ll definitely stay again!

I’m a lease and am thoroughly pleased with the facility, camp hosts and owners Ben and Kayla. The GP is a home away from home!

1st time up this way staying over. Picked this place for friends wedding, met another who was coming in with her rv. So happy she recommended this spot. Check in was with friendly attentive staff, Dana, cute little store on site too to grab the marshmallows I forgot. Mike was also another on site host who was so helpful and nice in showing the cabin and pointing everything out. The bunkhouse is just as pictured, cozy with basic essentials. Home away from home. Felt surprisingly safe, comfy bed. Grounds are well kept, and scenic. Bring own bedding and towels, read rules and info provided ahead of trip ;p The owner Kayla is genuinely one of the kindest people I have met in a very long time, 5 star ⭐️ My friend stayed in space 18 and was so happy with the campsite amenities and staff she stayed an additional night. She was also impressed with the great hospitality and beautiful surroundings. Just a very sweet spot, and well cared for.

I had a wonderful stay at Golden Pines. The location is perfect for visiting some hiking trails, Big Trees or for enjoying the cute shops of Murphy. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait to visit again!

This is a nicely run campground near beautiful Bear Valley. There are some cabins but we had an RV so I can't comment on them. Management is friendly and helpful. I think they just bought the place about a year ago and are making some renovations on the place. We enjoyed our stay. We were on a cycling vacation. You have to pay for showers but we had an RV and the campground gives full hookups so it didn't matter for us

Lovely place! We stayed for 4 nights in spot 19 and it was quiet, peaceful, and clean. The hosts guide you to your spot and help you back in 👌 There was a lovely grove behind our site that was great for our daughter and pup to play around in. With full hookups, we didn't need it, but appreciated the restrooms right across from us. The pool was under construction while we were there which wasn't ideal but we're understanding and found other ways to enjoy the area. We explored Big Trees just 4 minutes down the road and made 2 day trips to Lake Alpine just 35 minutes north. We're already talking about going back!

Spent Thanksgiving at this campground. Had a great stay from start to finish and the camp host and maintenance guy were super nice. Bathrooms, showers, and laundry room were a little dated but nice and clean .

Great location, great host (Kerry) and clean rest rooms. The tent camping sites (the ones where we stayed) did not had too many flat surfaces to pitch in multiple tents. Regardless, I will revisit this place and stay here during my future camping trips.

Kerry is an amazing camp host! When I had park my trailer she came over to help me back in to make sure my personal property was not damaged by the surrounding trees. Kerry is extremely kind and is always waving when to me when I pass by. Kerry put the cherry on top of my stay here at Golden Pines RV Park. Kerry really went above and beyond her duties as a camp host.
