The Fair Park RV

Tonya Sisler

The park was a great jumping off point to explore the San Fran area. The price was good, and everything was in working order. The grass hadn't been mowed, but when we asked since my elderly mother was with us and the ground was uneven, they quickly got it taken care of. While the entrance to the park is wide and well-maintained, it was a bit difficult to find. Additional signage would be great.

First review January 2022 Scroll down for October 2023 The park was easy to find. It is located in the Pleasanton Alameda Count Fair Grounds. . There is pavement all the way including in the park. Signage is adequate. Check in was efficient and friendly. The rules are fairly basic. Our site, 187, was a back in that was just barely long enough for our Coach and Towed. Services (30 amp only) was a long way back to the right side. I am glad that I had an extension cable!. The water and sewer were to the left rear. Distancing is very, very close. Typical for an urban park. There is no barrier between sites. There are no tables or fire pits. Our site was flat and even gravel/dirt pad. There is no included wifi. We did find a number OTA TV. Satellite should not be difficult. We did not use the washrooms or pay showers but they were open. There is a large green space that is used for dogs just outside of the RV Park gate. Users appear to be very good at cleaning up after their pets and there are poop bags and a garbage near by. There is a very small store on site that I suspect is stocked during the warmer months. It’s shelves were bare during our stay. It appears there may be propane sales on site. Within a short drive you can find good food, shopping and any other amenity you may need.. We found this park to be a well run urban RV park that delivers just the bare basics.. We paid $42.00 a night and we feel we received poor value. This is more like a $30 - $35.park. It is just too basic to be worth more. We would look at other alternatives if in the area again. Be advised, this is a very busy park It was pretty much full during our two day stay during off season. October 2023 There was construction taking place expanding the park so no store or office. Just a construction trailer at the entrance. Our site, 168 was a gravel based back in that was just long enough for our Coach and Towed. Services (30 50 amp, water and sewer only) were to the left side. Distancing is super close even for an urban park. There is no room for table or a fire pit. Our site was flat and even. Overall the park was a place to set up in order to rest your body at night. There is absolutely nothing to do in the park There is NO park included wifi or cable TV. We did not find any OTA channels. Satellite would not be difficult. We did not use the washrooms, showers or laundromat but we checked and found them clean. There are no restaurants or stores within easy walking distance but just a short drive away you can find food, shopping and convenience stores. We found this park to be the only game in town thus we persevered. We paid $43.00 per night (inc tax) and we feel we received very poor value. Sadly, we will be back as we use it as a base to visit friends.

This park is perfect if you need convenient access to fairground events. It is an RV parking lot with hookups. The spaces are very tight. Recommend booking an end space. The surface is a combination of broken up asphalt, rocks and dirt. It is very dusty and the dirt sticks to everything. For us, the worst was the constant sewer smell. I imagine this is a symptom of close proximity to the sewer hookups although there could be a venting problem. When we visited (09/2023), there was construction to add new spaces. The general store and RV parts store were not open. Registration was at a trailer at the front gate. The laundry room, restrooms and showers were in great condition and clean. There is a large green space right outside the gate that is good for dogs. Grocery store and restaurants within a mile.

Good RV park for travel nurses. Rates are reasonable with no add on costs. I always felt safe and it's the people there that make it a fun stay!!

They refuse to book us because, despite spending hundreds of dollars for items to keep the outdoor space clean, organized, and presentable as possible for a service-connected, PTSD recovering veteran, who also contacted the police for the park when I discovered the dead body of a neighbor on June 5th, and took custody of the neighbors brother when he arrived to help him settle affairs. Hot even a ‘thank you’ from the employees or manager, and told, despite available space, they had no room for storage of anything I might want to store there. Avoid this seemingly nice place if possible. They are arbitrary and dishonest. There is a general and RV store. Access to a dog park, and all the shopping needs you could want within walking or short driving distance. Wifi signal is weak here, and you might suffer a plague of flies, or buttheads for an associated event they are hosting without giving you any kind of heads up.

Solid. They have a general and RV store. Access to a dog park, and all the shopping needs could want within walking or short driving distance. Wifi signal is weak here.

A basic Fairgrounds RV Park. The area was clean. The site had everything I needed. The restroom/shower was very clean and warm on a cold winter morning. For the money - a good option.

Conveniently located and with tons of areas to walk around, but the sites are basic and you are pretty much stacked in with no camp space.

I'm not sure why people are complaining about staying in a parking lot here. It's pretty obvious that it is a fairground parking lot before you arrive, and completely obvious once you are here. I've seen worse fairground parking lots. If you don't want to stay in a parking lot, then don't stay here. This parking lot is in a nice neighborhood with hot showers and laundry. The staff has been very friendly to us. The parking areas here are a bit wider than a normal lot, so there is room for a slide-out and room to walk alongside your rig. There are some trees and a bit of grass here and there.
