The R.V. manager here is the rudest person. We used to stay here all the time when we travel but he seems to judge people off the year of their r.v no matter how nice it is. Everytime I would look out my window he was standing somewhere near staring in my window.... I've honestly never been treated so badly by an r.v host. I watched him do this to other people as well as myself. I tried speaking with the office manager because Everytime I would talk to him he would bring up my husband's disability, she was also rude an older lady, how someone like him works for the county I'm not really sure. My next visit to Sonora i will be making other arrangements, which suck this is the closest to town...

Nice fair experience. All the nice things you would expect at a county fair. Not much drunkeness or rowdyness which was good. A fair amount of security and police present. Very nice atmosphere overall.

Non event RV stay. Absolutely loved it. Stayed as a stopover. Full/partial hookups, friendly camp host, ample space, hot showers and toilets. Arrived late, front office closed but found camp host in large RV back left who helped us. 40/night.

We attended a private party which only used a portion of the facilities. Clean, functional, and well maintained. Thank you!

Rick the camp host is amazing, great personality. The RV spots are nice grass , picnic tables and we even had deer cruising thru at night . Maintenance was also outstanding. The showers begin to leak I notified one of the maintenance guys immediately he headed over and fixed it. Great place to stop and relax . We will definitely be back. .

Always have a good time with the kids at the Fair. Just wish the prices weren't so high. About 300.00 for 2 kids for 2 days. This included wristbands. Plus my 2 adult tickets one for each day.

Centrally located within walking distance to Historic Downtown Sonora (California), local events draw visitors from around the world, thanks to Yosemite National Park just 2 hrs away.

Yeah I'm sure it's a very nice fairgrounds from what I understand they have normal fare attractions, But I only drove by and was sitting in front of it talking to a friend.

We attended an event here that was in one building. This building worked out quite well for many people to set up booths for selling goods. There was also seating outside for people who wanted fresh air & some grass to let the kids run around.

We revisited the Celtic fair for a second time and plan to make it a family tradition. Took the family up the hill to the Celtic Fair and had a blast. Live music performances from traditional medieval music to Scottish bagpipes, to punk-metal bands which included the bagpipes. Great fair food and Celtic crafts of all kinds. Battle simulations capped with live jousting. Great time was had by all.
