My reservation was originally from November until February but I extended until mid-April due to the truly great experience I had. The entire staff, from front office to landscapers, is extremely friendly and focused in providing campers with a great experience. Facilities are second to none with beautiful pools, hot tubs, ten pristine pickleball courts, beach volleyball, and many other well-maintained amenities amongst beautiful landscaping. There are many daily activities for everyone, of which several are organized by volunteers. Best of all is the temporary and permanent residents at the site. They become friends who you look forward to meeting the following season. I already booked my return for this fall when I look forward to another great experience and to meet the many friends that I made at Golden Village Palms.

This is an absolutely beautiful park with lots of activities. There is so much to do that you can be entertained the whole stay within the park. It has some of the nicest pickleball courts I have ever played in. Everything is very clean and the staff are very accommodating. The have live entertainment if you go on the right weekend and events going on that you can join in on. Definitely a nice stay.

I rented a cabin for the first time after Peyton recommended it (you can also own one within the campground). I’ve stayed at the Hampton Inn next door and found this to be a quieter and more luxurious experience. The cabin had everything I would normally expect in a hotel room and more. Towels, soap, shampoo, etc. but also had a full size kitchen with dishes and a refrigerator and freezer. I look forward to coming back with my family next time!

I’m very disappointed in my experience here. I booked Golden Village due to them being the largest RV resort in California, and their amazing “staged” photos on their website. Unfortunately it’s a major let down. For starters— their photos show cocktails and beer available at a perceived pool bar, however it does not exist. The website also boasts multiple food establishments. “The grill” has a decent online menu; however the actual restaurant has a 6-7 item limited menu and is just in their banquet room. The final straw— both the website and the packet they give you at check in says “The grill” is open until 4pm each day, but they actually close at 3pm. There is no onsite camp store or anywhere to buy anything. Their website is very deceptive. They make it seem like this is a “resort” with food and various full service amenities. In reality, it’s a large RV park with a decent pool and a guy that sells hamburgers. We will be going back to Launch Pointe in Lake Elsinore.

We rented a Park Model (cabin) for 2 months. This is our 6th year at GVP. The location of our cabin within the Park was excellent, as are the amenities and activities within the Park. The Park Model we rented needs some paint outside and inside. There were several items missing from the kitchen. We did provide a deficiency list and all items were provided the very next day (all new). The sink was leaking under the tap and under the sink (Nothing major). There was more than ample storage. We will continue to visit GVP because of the great people (other guests) we have met and many of the great staff. There are internal politics (due to inconsistency in corporate policys). This is unfortunate as this should be/ could be the best resort in California. There seems to be a lot of distraction (from simply enjoying this facility) due to these corporate policy inconsistencies. We will return and we look forward to a great experience and hope that corporate policies are more clearly defined, tightened up and followed. The location of this facility is exceptional in accessing the coastal communities, Palm Springs, Temecula and many other adventures in the region. Golf courses are great, Concerts, poker games, pickleball and other activities within the Park are exceptional. As well, the businesses in Hemet are very welcoming and respectful. If GVP policies are addressed and compliance is assured, this would be a 10 out of 10 facility. Best regards, Dave & Roslynn McRae

It’s a shame that the GM is a narcissist and full of himself, and doesn’t know what he is doing. He thinks he does, but he doesn’t. Resident guests have stopped coming to events. He has even stooped as low as bribing guests with a steak dinner for writing a good review about him. He allows certain employees to play volleyball in the pool on company time. It is absolutely ludicrous.

Previous years long term resident. They’ve priced us out of the park! We’ve heard that in 2022 laundry facility price has gone up so much it’s unaffordable. They offer “ specials” but don’t honor them. They change prices often, charge extra for EVERYTHING! Many long term residents not returning

Very cool place was just checking it out will be there for 18 days in May while our new house is finishing being built

Recently retired and picked golden village for our first winter away from home. We really enjoyed the resort and everything they offered. Hemet is a little sketchy at times but we felt safe in the resort. Definitely would recommend to a friend!

This is a very nice place stay. We are here until next year. Quiet feel safe. Staff very helpful never rude. Could use some updating to sites need more concrete or grass. The workers on the landscape are great A little expensive but everything is that way in todays market

Right in the heart of Hemet, a beautiful oasis. Very clean facilities and grounds. Will definitely return.

We have had a good experience at the Golden Village Palms. Making a reservation with Kristopher over the phone went very smoothly, and he greeted us upon our arrival, as it turned out, and remembered our conversation. We hit a little snag with the assignment of our first parking spot for our fifth wheel, but the staff did everything possible to make that better, and went above and beyond. They really took service to heart. The park is clean and the people staying here seem to be friendly. We have also enjoyed the fact that the park is not full, so there’s a lot of open space.

This R.V. park is like the hittler of R.V. parks it is nice only if you fit the staffs criteria.the staff were cold hearted and plan out rude. My car was broke in to money,and other personal things were taking after telling the front gate about it not one member of management came to take a report did not care that my things were taken one of the desk workers went and asked to cut me a price brake and not only was told No but my weekly rate went up from 217 too 376. The day of my departure my starter went out and it would cost me alot to tow, went to pay for the night and was told this was the last night wether i het my part or not.the next day after putting my starter on my engine started fire NO ONE FROM THE PARK EVEN ASKED IF WE WERE OK .as the mangmet rolls by yet again pussing me to drve my RV after me telling them it was un safe. For me to drive i got a cold shoulder and told "well how long will it take you need to chek out now" knoing that any one can get a 2 pm check out but young couples that dont fit there "skin Head" like ways of the pur bread R.V. race . they pushed me out the gate knowing my rig was broke in dangres to everyone around me on the road.telling me that my space was booked and they were full . i counted 126 enpty slots when i stoped counting. So if you wamt honestly safty and not a fake smile DONT GO THERE ot is unsafe and if they did this to a non driking or drugging young coulple im scared to see what they would do to a older person in the same boat

We have spent February and March here and I haven't one bad thing to say! This is a large RV park that's like a cruise ship on land. 3 pools, 3 hot tubs, full gym, huge laundry room, shower facilities, pickleball courts, shuffleboard and billiards rooms, craft rooms, Texas Holdem Poker every week, farmers market every Tuesday, frequent cover band concerts, Saturday night bands and dancing, craft show and car show once a month, pool side patio has music and a local restaurant serve lunch every weekday and many more activities...hiking and golf groups also. If you are bored here it's because you want to be! Sites are back in, FHU, wifi and cable...lots of fruit tree's which you can help yourself to the fruit. Very clean and friendly staff. Hemet is 1 hour 15 minutes to the mountains, Joshua Tree, San Diego and 45 minutes to Palm Springs...excellent location for exploring! ad'l comment: Stayed here 2 nights while visiting the area. Awesome park with long and extra wide pull thru spots. Clean, quiet, lots of stores nearby. Cable, wi-fi and a nice dog park. They honor Passport America so we paid $36 a night. Will definitely stay here again if in the area - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group

I like this park because it has a bit of a tropical vibe; a lot of vibrant colors, and plenty of fresh air. It was a nice spot to take pictures for my travel blog because there was always a lot of foot traffic and smiling faces. The resort itself was top notch and definitely better than the pictures in the brochure made it appear. Everything was super classy and pristine, and the staff there took a lot of pride in taking care of us during our stay. There's a lot of activities throughout the week which was great because we caught bored of hanging out at the pool pretty quickly haha! We caught a card bingo game and few aerobics class, and when I needed some girl time, I joined a ladies' billiards game. I must admit, we had way more fun than we anticipated, and really looking forward to going back sometime. It can get hot though, and super loud in some of the community spaces, so we sometimes had to get off the resort for a little peace, but it was never a far drive for us to get some quiet. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
