My wife and I just pulled in to the campgrounds after a long day of travel. We had the idea that it would be great to start a fire and just relax quietly around the campfire. As it turns out, it looks like we share a fire ring with our neighbor. The neighbor right out front our door has done a good job setting up two picnic tables and all of their stuff for a day or two. Bottom line is if we want to sit outside and have a glass of wine and sit around the campfire, we will be doing so with the family next door. The set up is right on top of each other and not well thought out. This is our third night so far at other campgrounds on our trip. This one is disappointing! Unfortunately we checked in after everyone left or we would have moved to another campground. I recommend you pass on this campground. There is a reason this one had so many spots open while every other one in the area was sold out! I hope the ownership sees this review and offers a full refund!

We took our kiddos here for a fun staycation the weekend before Halloween. THEY HAD THE ABSOLUTE BEST TIME!!! from cookie and cupcake decorating, to an epic bounce house and more trick or treat candy and decorations than their lil brains could fathom. Every part of the resort staff were amazing; from check in to check out; front desk to grounds maintenance, all of them deserve the highest compliments. Christina is the manager and was always available if needed. We loved seeing her enjoying the festivities right along with the guests. Kudos to all staff and guests who truly made this an experience to remember for our family ❤️❤️

False advertisement. This place Pismo Sands RV "Resort " . Keep in mind it's a "Resort" not a "campground " only a campground when the manager Christina wants it to be. Her rules only apply to certain individuals and or families during your stay. Decorations are only allowed "during holiday time when the office tells you it's ok" nothing else is allowed on/ area the campsite. Christina is dirty. DIRTY work is done here ( Pismo sands rv resort in Oceano) , if you like that cup of tea , this is your place to be. To her unprofessional non sense chameleon self. Figure it out !!! It's pretty easy to see through. It's unfortunate, how Christina runs the office and the "property" to only her expectations and who she chooses to tow and discriminate against. It's known. It's facts. It's shown. Christina isn't just a " manager " at Pismo Sands it's deeper than that. She will send out a private message to you if she's got your number making herself feel good before she attacks all areas and states false accusations directly to you. She lies! She thinks she's good. A little icing for y'all get readyyyyyy are you ready?!?! Is that Christina has her own business in the "Resort/ Campground & if you park in or next to her spot she rents out with her trailer (s) that gets rented , she barges in to your camper unannounced to scream letting us know we're in her spot that's being rented by Christina, not Pismo Sands RV Resort.( my teenagers had the door unlocked as they were there to load up fishing poles ) hanging out for a second of course. What company, management slams open a families camper door,without knocking at all ... that is fully against the law. Yet, the people that were renting her trailer, parked at the wrong spot as they stated they rented the cabins. Mmmmmmmm !!! Sink that in!!! Hallelujah on your smile that didn't and couldn't get this family in your toxic environment and ways within yourself, others on how the park is operated. Thanks for showing your true true self fully to a local family. Including our children that is. Cheers!!!

We stayed for 2 days in space 134 and had an amazing time. The park was quiet and pool/spa clean. Our neighbor was a resident so she was quiet which was perfect for us. We enjoyed having an in ground firepit! Showers were hot and staff inside was very friendly! We will be back!

I don’t normally camp at RV resorts, but this one was so so nice. The sites are spacious and all have grass. The pool and hot tub were immaculate. There was even a “doggy wash station”!! I would stay here again.

Pismo Sands RV Resort is THE BEST RV resort destination on the central coast of California. The amenities include a large heated pool and spa (kept perfect temp year round) game room for the kids, large bathrooms with hot showers, generously sized lots for each RV, and a staff that is second to none. They also have several homes for rent on the premises for families without RVs. I would highly recommend this place to all of my friends and family!!! Good job Pismo Sands RV Resort!!

I was extremely satisfied with our stay at Pismo Sands. I brought my two grandkids, aged 6 and 9, and we made the most of the amenities. The game room was a daily highlight, especially the ping pong table. The pool and jacuzzi, which we initially thought would be closed for repairs, were pleasantly open for use. We also took a short drive to the beach and explored the tide pools, which was a wonderful addition to our trip. I appreciated the convenience of washing clothes using a pay-by-phone system. The entire site and resort were spotless and well-maintained. We had such a positive experience that we definitely plan to return.

NO PLAY AREA! Booked this place due to the awesome pirate themed play area all over their reviews and website. Told my kids all about it as we drove from San Diego to get there. When we arrived it was only caution tape. It has not recently been taken down. There is nothing waiting to be assembled. There is absolutely no play area for kids. There has not been one for some time. I would not have stayed here if they had been honest on their website. It's not hard to update.

Pismo Sands, has friendly staff, great location and the grounds are maintained. It is an older park, and that is evident in the restrooms, but they are clean and adequate. Sites can be a little tight and are on the smaller side, but the buddy sites, are great and give you plenty of space. Also for any specials call or email, as the website doesn't have a spot for you to enter the discount code.

A place I call little Paradise on Hwy 1... Filled in with peace, sun rays from your own site to being pool side and soaking your self into a relaxing hot tub under the stars in a sweet spot I do believe. Pismo Sands is a perfect place to come kick up your feet and enjoy yourself while all the amenities are only steps away within the park with friendly staff who have such good vibes, professionalism, respect and cheerful smiles when you walk into the office. It's a Well maintained Resort that is well handled all around and puts together activities and some holiday events for the kids. It's amazing!! We love it here. Keep the Peace, stay clean, be respectful of one another and the day is yours. Enjoy life Everyone!!! Book your stay!!!

A wonderful location to stop , they have plenty of rv spots and a few cabins if your not doing the rv things. There is an amazing hottub and pool ! A game room with books and lots activities for young and old alike . Laundry and shower facilities on site ... its quiet but still active. Kids have safety to ride around and play . Adults can hang and enjoy . Firepits and picnic benches for smores and outside eating ! It's just such a lovely and wonderful spot ! Close to coffee and taco places and so close to the oceano dunes and pismo beach ! Shopping and things are near by . I would highly recommend pismo sands for vacation spot !

We have been coming to Pismo Sands with a group of friends for several years. We always have the best time. It is clean, safe, and fun. Management is helpful and friendly. Just finishing up Spring break with four families and already excited for our next trip.

Great place to stay. Only a short drive to the beach and downtown Pismo at a great price. The pool area is down for renovation currently but they are actively addressing repairing an issue due to water waste which is a plus in my book! The staff is always so nice and one of the main reasons we keep coming back. Thanks for always being so accommodating to us! We will be back soon!

I don’t usually write negative reviews but I feel that this one needs doing. This is our second stay in this park and we just had two e-bikes stolen that are valued at over $9,000. There is no functioning security here and the sheriff who made the report told us that he is in this park once or twice a month for the same problem with bikes. We were not given any heads up by management and of course they take no responsibility. I imagine that is pretty standard but a stern warning would have been appreciated. Just be warned if you have bikes and plan to stay here. In the response from management with regard to this review we were told to be sure and keep our bikes locked up at all times. Guess what??? They were locked to the wheel of our coach with a cable which was neatly cut in two. Grrrr! As for their claim of efforts to increase security my husband was told by the office staff that added security would mean added cost to the campers so I feel that the owners response was lip service to appease the readers and not much more.
