The location is a polarizing conversation. On the one hand you're close to and accessibly quick to pretty much anything in Santa Barbara. That, because you're 50 feet and a 9 foot wall away from the 101 Freeway. But then, you're 50 feet away from the 101...... Forget doing anything outside unless you are ok with yelling to converse. The noise is outrageously bad for an RV park. Even off peak hours it is a steady stream of cars, trucks and motorcycle wizzing and/or screaming by. For us it's ok. We don't care much about amenities and we liked the central location but you will not spend your time here having family fun outside your coach. You're in a 90 decibel environment under good conditions. You will also not get a pool, clubhouse, dog run or any now expected RV park niceties. 22 lots, weird, urban layout, old bathrooms and laundry. Both are serviceable but they won't remind you of the last RV "resort" you went to. This is a bare bones RV park with severe limitations. All that said, staff was great, price was right and you really are 10 minutes from almost anything in town. We may even be back because of that but it won't be because the park itself is nice, it isn't but hop in your car and downtown Santa Barbara, beaches and the like are a stones throw away and at a reasonable price.

Everyone here is very kind and helpful. The staff is very attentive and responsive. Santa Barbara is so beautiful, and this site is very close to the beaches and so many attractions. Thank you for taking care of us while we’re here.

Enrique was very kind! They were unable to book me for all the nights of my stay, so I had two reservations with a missing Saturday night. Something else opened up including the Saturday night and he was so kind and generous that he refunded me Friday night as well as Sunday onward, even though I was canceling inside the cancelation window. He got a Friday last minute booking and actually called me to very kindly congratulate me on a full refund. You don't see customer service like his much these days. It made my day, since I am camping all winter, and it gets expensive.

This is a great place to stop for a break. They have showers and laundry facilities. Full hook ups. Some pull through spots. Very clean. Close to downtown and beaches. The staff are super friendly and very helpful.

This campground was extremely nice. It was pretty small, but it had everything needed. The bathrooms were in top shape and I loved the set up of them. Also the best part about the bathrooms is their water was HOT! The staff was super friendly. It was only about a 5 minute drive to the beach parking which we opted to drive, and close to downtown Santa Barbara. It was a quiet, lovely camp spot. I definitely recommend this park.

Be warned that this campsite is merely a parking lot crammed in between a noisy freeway and some sketchy looking apartments. When we asked for a refund from a reservation that we had only made 2 hours prior to trying to cancel we were met by a very large attitude from the owner or manager there. They said they would refund me if they were able to rent it out again even though half the park was empty. At that point I was happy to lose my $70.00 and move on up the road to an amazing location we found

Great for a short stay! The staff is so nice. The amenities are clean. The only downside is the noise from the 101, but it didn't bother me at all.

This is a tiny park, very hard to maneuver in. My husband and I pulled in with our trailer on our way to the mountains hoping to fill our water for a fee. We’ve found that many RV Parks offer this service, usually $20. We were unable to locate the manger so started to fill the tank expecting to pay after. The manager found us and and was so angry! We apologized profusely and offered to pay money as was intended but he refused and threatened to call the cops on us for trespassing. He was scary angry and saying very rude things despite us trying to be as nice and apologetic as possible. You couldn’t pay me to stay anywhere near this manager.

Our son graduated UCSB and we used chose SB Sunrise RV as it was the closest camping facility to the campus. I can not express how perfect this location and experience was for us, and the four other family members who camped in the same location. First my rig is 34'9" long. Although the park is relatively small (that's a good thing) the spaces are large, accommodating, and clean. I have attached a photo to show how spacious our spot (#2) was. The first night we took an UBER from the campground to downtown for dinner and drinks. The UBER ride was about $7.00 each way. It was quick and easy. Downtown Santa Barbara is beautiful with plenty to see, eat, and drink. Another night we held a dinner time graduation party for my son, his girlfriend (she also graduated), and all of our family members. We reserved space #23 to afford us plenty of room and to be clear of other's campsites. It was PERFECT! The managers took extra effort to clean the space and put extra picnic tables at the location in preparation for our party. Completely a success! I have seen many complaints on this thread reference traffic noise from the US-101. There is definitely traffic noise but we frequently camp at beaches and in the desert. At the beach the surf noise is about the same. In the desert, the off road toy noise is MUCH louder. So, I would say, you just need to be realistic about the fact you are in a camper and it is near a freeway. And finally, the managers are as good as they get. They greet everyone and make sure your experience is as good as possible. They helped me back in my rig to the spot saving us from the typical marital argument (haha). They made sure all of my equipment was of correct size as they have some adapters to help you if you come up short with your sewage tube. Again, I was very pleased and would strongly recommend this location for any camping adventure if you are in Santa Barbara.

I'd never been to a campsite on a beachfront before this one and really loved it! Apparently this is the only park along the coastline and not only are there several beaches for peaceful escapes or light surfing, but also nearby trails for hiking. If you plan on hiking, I'd suggest visiting Santa Barbara Hikes online to find local hiking groups and get the most out of your journey. That's what I did, and I found some awesome inclines overlooking spectacular views. I also did some scuba diving and a few hours of whale watching; I didn't see any whales, but did see some really pretty fish while diving. I'd highly recommend that! The RV sites are all pretty modern and polished. They're all full hookup which is great. Normally I have to fight to make a reservation early to get a full site, but this one was no problem. There's other amenities nearby like convenience stores and RV storage lots which I've used a few times on return trips. I'm going back this year for sure. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
