Thousand Trails is now assigning sites which is not good. I liked it better when we could pick our site. We arrived at 11:50am and we went to check in and we were told we had to wait until 12pm because that is the time to check in. Office staff was rude and not friendly the only staff member who was friendly and very helpful to us was Sage. Thank you, Sage!!!! We asked if we could have Amazon delivered and they said "yes" but we will charge you a $10 handling fee per package. That is crazy considering all they do is take the package from Amazon. Thousand Trails Soledad only cares about selling the camping passes not about the "campers". Weeds are so high and a ton of stickers. We have been coming here since 2007 and it was a really nice campground. This campground needs a lot of TLC it has a lot of potential.

went for my birthday weekend. when we arrived we were put in a space that had weeds bigger than my trailer. my husband went to the office and they moved us. put in notes we wanted to be next to family members but apparently that was impossible even though so many sites around were empty. section b is the worst section. train horns almost every hour. its really loud. barley slept the first night had to wear earplugs the rest of our stay. no service for Verizon in that section. also had a neighbor blaring music as security drove through. they did nothing. I asked security what time was quiet time and they told me 11. if you stay bring a rake,shovel, and earplugs. staff is nice and bathrooms are cleaned daily

The park is very big, view is good, can enjoy nice walk around. My site was at B area, which is not very good maintained. The worst thing is that trains passed always even in the midnight, and horn every time when there was a train coming. Could not sleep good.

Its a nice place to camp. The pools are huge and cold which is refreshing in the hot summer heat. Lots of seating by the big pool. Lots of movies to rent and games for kids. Down side not many campground activities planned out like the other thousand trails we have stayed at. But still a clean nice campground.

Not what we expected from a thousand trails property. We have stayed at a couple other that were beautiful. This place should be embarrassed. A third of the property looks abandoned and unusable. Upon check in at 12pm, we were advised we have no water till 5pm. We were out of fresh water after 3 prior days in Joshua Tree NP expecting to refill here. Another camper said he was notified the day before about the water, however we recieved no calls, texts or emails to be made aware. We did recieve 3 emails confirming our stay and 2 phone calls asking to become a member, but no calls about the water. 😡 The property is run down, poor site numbers and unlevel spaces. Campers are side by side with little room to open slides. We heard the neighbors kids running back and forth in their camper. Water didn't return for 8 hrs, no offer to adjust our rate. I spoke to the office and requested to speak to a manager, she took my number and said Brian would call in the morning. We never got a call. Wifi was an extra cost, no cable TV, no cell service. Tall weeds/grass. RV areas not maintained at all. Would not recommend, very pricy for a disappointing park.

This park desperately needs more navigational signage and clear site numbers. Finding my site was hard and I saw multiple rigs looping around trying to find theirs. Staff needs to be educated on how to use the new reservation system. They said it auto assigns you a spot and there is absolutely no way for them to manually change that even if there’s an issue so I was stuck in a site with electrical problems

THOUSAND TRAILS Soledad canyon - sites could be better maintained - tho their “New” area is pretty good - hard to get a spot as they now allocate sites ( used to be find your own) and seems the NEw area mainly 50amp ppl. Facilities are clean and there’s a large pool & spa. A lot of sites are very uneven - and the roads should be upgraded through the whole park - also watch out for goats heads with pets !

They ruined a good thing when they switched to assigned sites. Soledad has never been a great park, it's rundown and has lots of problems, but you at least had options to put yourself in an acceptable area before. Now a computer puts you into a site that hopefully works in your favor. Don't like the spot you were given, wanna camp near your friends, well too bad because all those nice spots you see empty for multiple days in a row are assigned to someone that doesn't get there for another week. Don't like being woken up by a train at 3am every day? Suck it up because you're stuck there for your stay and can't go find a quiter spot like you've been able to do for the past 30+ years. I've been coming to this park for many years and I'm seeing people placed in campsites no one ever chose on their own while premium sites sit empty. There are so many things that got ruined by switching from first come first served campsite selection, I can only assume corporate wants it's long term members out. This review is not reflective of the parks staff, which are trying their best to deal with this fiasco, this is corporate forcing a change that most members did not want. 1/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

I remember going here when I was about 4 years old. There was a meandering little creek, man-made, of course. It was lined with cement, but it was slick. And you could slide down it, sort of. It was more like a scoot and float. The water came down from a water holding tank that was about 4 feet deep and the older kids were in there. There was no way in because the walls were too high to climb over for a four year old. That was 1966, folks. I can see that where the big kids pool was, there is now a finished pool or swimming pond

We have been to lots of Thousand Trails campgrounds and this was our last favorite. When we got to our site we had to pickup garbage on the ground and in the BBQ pit. Only saw one guy doing any clean up work in two days. Thousand Trails need to set some standards for their sites and enforce them. On a positive note the bathrooms were clean and the shower was hot.

The place is average for clean. The power here is terrible. Testing the voltage was as low as 90 volts. My Hughes Autotransformer was not able to get the voltage in range. So my power was off more then on.

We are Thousand Trail members. We love staying here. The only issue is staff. Britanny is fantastic, but sadly a couple of the men just do not have any customer service ethics. Seems to be a constant concern among visitors. You wally in office friendly and they are rude. They do not reciprocate kindness.

really like this place. unfortunately there are a lot of spots where the power doesn't work. it would be great if they could get that taken care of.

Great location, and a nice park, it's just that the manager doesn't care and that trickles all the way down to the last employee. I've never seen a Thousand Trails park that has as much litter scattered throughout it. Employees just walk right over it without a thought of picking it up. The power and water has been a problem every time I've been there so be sure to have a generator and full fresh water tanks.

It's okay but the pools are closed
