First let me say, we will definitely go back to this RV resort. It was very clean & well maintained. It offers a 24 hours security guard at the entrance. Each guard was very friendly & social. The reason for not giving 5 stars....spaces were pretty close to each other - opening up curtains gave away your privacy from every angle of your rig - bright street lights at night lit up our RV making it hard to sleep, we wanted windows open to feel the cool breeze - It was always very noisy in the morning. Leaf blowers, garbage can pickup by staff, something was always going on in the morning. This resort offers reservations by the month. There were a few full timers that had bright lights on their sites at night that lit up the street. Such as, a couple selling artificial trees for your campsite. There was a RV'er that used power tools daily. Not sure what they were doing. Definitely not the peaceful place that we are used to, but the location was perfect for where we wanted to go. Staff was very nice. Also FYI...we drove around to all other RV parks in the area & would not stay at any others. Mission Bay RV Resort will be our park of choice. I do recommend this park. If you have kids, the adjoining RV park, Campland is a way better choice for you. It has a lot of activities for kids.

The resort is nice and clean, well-kept and everyone is friendly. But you have to remember you are camping in a parking lot.

Great RV park! Very friendly staff and so helpful. Had issues with my electrical and they were very understanding. I can't wait until they can clear out all those abandoned mobile homes! Come on Cal coastal commission, do your jobs!

We camped at Mission Bay RV Resort for the 4th of July and we loved it. We we right on the beach and next door to Sea World and a short drive to San Diego. There is a beach right off the campsite and has lots of trails for riding and waking. Only reason not 5 stars is the bathrooms needed cleaning you can't choose your own camping spot. We will camp there again regardless.

Updating my review because they fixed the lighting issue at the dog park. Trees make it a little difficult to back in to the spots. There is decent spacing between RVs considering it's San Diego. Not a fan of the parking lot idea but it is way better than gravel. Beautiful view of the bay. Just wish other dog owners would clean up after their pets.

Mission Bay RV is our favorite, easy access, good size spots. We know some call it a big parking lot but have small dogs I say we love it, no dirt or grass to get them nasty. Great walk around the park, easy Bay access for our paddle boarding needs. Staff is very friendly and helpful, the park is clean and our stays are always pleasant. What we like the most is that we feel the park has a lot less small kids since there are no real amenities, families generally stay next door a Campland. Mission Bay we ❤️ you!

We loved it! Really good facilities Sure, its a shame about the mobile home park...but it doesn't take away from the beauty of the place

This was my first time visiting Mission Bay RV Resort in San Diego, California. I stayed for four days and didn’t want to leave. The staff was very polite and very helpful, the restrooms were kept very clean, as well as the laundry rooms. Very good location with many things to do. I will definitely return but the next time stay longer! It was a great place to stay! Thank you

We dealt with some serious discrimination trying to briefly visit friends staying at the park.

They cancelled our reservation for no reason. Luckily we had print outs of our confirmation. Behind the gates are houses with open doors that are abandoned so just be cautious with your children. We purchased a firepit 8.50 and fire wood $5. The staff brought it to our site very quickly. In the morning the staff was out landscaping and cleaning vacant lots. The beach was great for little children. It's very chill and sandy although something tiny was biting our legs in the water. Overall the kids liked it. Lots of kids bicycling, skating And running around playing. A nice sight during covid 19. The staff does drive around at 10 to quiet the campers.

Beautiful place to stay. Mostly quiet. Convenient if you need airport often. 25 min drive to the city centre. At the central park you get to pool and jacuzzi but if you stay over the bridge - only parking is available. We stayed here for three months, waiting for better weather in Seattle. The right place for ”snowbirds” A lot of entertainment in the city centre.

Excellent choice to park your RV and enjoy 2 facilities at the same time. I love how both Campland and Mission bay park have joined together. So much to enjoy. I just hope they take care of their bathrooms a bit more. For example the soap dispenser wasn't working. There was no shampoo or soap dispenser in the shower. The plastic flowers by the showers were so funny looking. The bathroom doors wouldn't close either. But over all it is a clean and quiet facility.

This place is fantastic! My young kids loved this place. The views were great, the activities were fun, and the people were kind. The little Bay is perfect for young children and I felt safe having them play in the water here. As opposed to other places the bay water wasn't bad and the bathroom and showers here were clean and nice.

Beautifully maintained park right on Mission Bay. Great place to stay for an extended visit to the San Diego area. Quiet area off the beaten path yet just a few minutes drive from the beach areas, downtown, Sea World etc. This park is owned and operated by the city of San Diego and they do a fantastic job. We had absolutely no complaints after a 4 day stay! We sprang for the extra $$ for a back-in spot right on the Bay and loved it. Came out to about $100/nt which isn't cheap but not terribly expensive by California standards and there were lower cost sites elsewhere in this campground if that seems high to you. All the spaces in this park are unusually wide (see picture) and the grounds are pretty manicured with a lot of mature trees. Just a few little caveats you should know about the place 1) There is no pool or spa, so if you're bringing the family you might not be happy with that. 2) the bathrooms are old but very clean and we'll maintained. If you're really fussy about bathrooms you might not be happy here. 3) The little peninsula that this park sits on has two abandoned mobile home parks at either end. The city owns the land and has plans to redevelop the area but hasn't finished the process of planning it yet. If you go for a walk outside this RV park you will see all these old vacant mobile homes on empty streets along the Bay. We thought it was fascinating and kind of cool but some might find it a bit creepy.

Clean park and apparently very popular. All concrete spots somewhat close together. Watch for kids when driving as they are everywhere. Park has 24 hr security. No store but lagoon for swimming and nice path for walking.
