Emerald Desert RV Resort - Sunland

Becki Gomez

Our first time staying at Emerald, we were with the Oldchella group, but booked separately so we didn't get the group discount. The villa was nice but had an odd odor, carpet needs replaced. Hot tub was like warm and jets were mal functioning. The office staff were great, very friendly.

TRAINS!! I say that first because it is fair warning when you pull into the park if you get placed over on the side of I10 there’s also railroad tracks directly behind the park. These trains run all night long and if the noise doesn’t bother you, the shaking of your trailer might. That being said, we lasted one night with that, but asked the park to move us, and they were very accommodating!! We moved to the opposite side of the park and although we could still hear the train, it was significantly better. Frank Sinatra Boulevard can be noisy if people decide to race down it, but it really wasn’t a problem. The staff was very friendly and kind. The reason I only gave four stars besides the trains was because of the grounds/maintenance. It is a very nice park but the groundskeeping crew drove around for two days straight, creating so much dust and leaving so many clippings behind that it was ridiculous. Many people had paid to have their trailers/rigs washed (600$)and they were covered in dust and debris. The crew didn’t blow or clean up any of the sites and we had to sweep our patio and so did all of our neighbors. Even the common walk areas up to the pool ect were covered in debris. Like completely covered in grass! The pool was so full of grass & dust that was flying around that we decided to get out. Our neighbor even complained, but they did nothing.The main pool itself is very nice and the restrooms were great as was the workout room. I did have to do some laundry and although the laundry room is very nice just be warned that each load was 5 dollars each! That’s the most expensive I’ve seen it in all of our travels. But desperate times call for desperate measures. Would I stay here again?? YES, because we met some really nice people and again like I mentioned before, once we were in a different part of the park, it was great and close to so many things. Again, the staff was very friendly. That makes a big difference!

This RV park is excellent. 2 +rows were deck out in Halloween fun. Each camp went above and beyond . Sat trick for treat event was amazing sooooo many families and kids participated! It felt like a when I was a kid trick or treating ! It was refreshing that Everyone was polite and well mannered. Also the poker run activity was a blast. I got to know more people in the camp!!

Beautiful place but, they should Disclose the Major NOISE with the Train Tracks on the other side of the RV Resort wall & the freeway. The trains run 24/7! All day & 2:00AM, 3AM, 5:30AM, etc! Our RV Shimmy's as the trains goes by. The Large dog run Looks nice But, there are Three Gaps in their gates that my smaller 11lb. chi mix can fit under, one going into the condos next door! There are also round goathead stickers in patches in there, which our dogs get them in their paw pads!! Staff is nice. The maintenance guy, Armando fixed our site light, very nice guy. Their main pool area is Beautiful But, even though it was 85° out in October, the water was Too Cold! 🥶 We missed not swimming & didn't see anyone else swimming in it either. There are areas that the grasses need to be maintained, high grasses. Price, Way too high for the NOISE we have to endure! We loved the atmosphere, until the trains go by. We won't be returning because you can't relocate the trains or schedule them to only run 8am-8pm. The prices don't warrant the NOISE. Yes, it may be in Palm Desert, but the zip code doesn't warrant the prices.

Nice RV Resort. Staff was great. Park was very clean. The big dog park had goat heads (stickers) not good for the fur babies paws. Prices are so so in October. After October Prices shoot up considerably. If they kept their prices down they probably do more business and have a full park. The freeway traffic noise was tolerable however the train 50 yards from us all hours of the night and day not good. Again prices need to reflect this even if your at the other end of the park, still loud but a bit more tolerable. However you will be paying more for those spaces.

In general, we love Emerald RV. We knew this trip would be hot(we checked), and assume because of that it was pretty empty(nice to have pool alone). But we were initial parked beside the biggest ant hill and the electric outlet was damaged so with limited electric it got hot inside. They allow us to move the next day because no one was there when we got there at 4pm. But overall we love the resort.

The sites and roads were clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. The park is in need of some further upkeep. Grass is green and mowed yet, it is evident that nothing has been edged or string trimmed for quite some time. The utilities in my spot worked properly but, other rvers were forced to move spots as some poles did not have power. This concerned me because the electronics in the high end coaches require clean power so make sure you have some form of protecting Your coaches' power before turning on the breaker on the pole! The pool area is kind of run down. The planters were bare with no plants or flowers. The light in the main spa did not work so we couldn't enjoy the use of that. The entire pool area could use some maintenance and updating. The public restrooms were updated and clean, but they were not air conditioned and very humid.

This was our first time staying there and it was wonderful. The place is beautiful and so clean and green. Our dog loved the grass. She would just lay down and roll around. Yes there is a train track right there but I didn’t find it bothersome at all. The office personnel was so nice and friendly. We will definitely be back

What a great little spot to stay in Palm Desert. The spots are laid out nicely with good tree cover for shade. Staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. The dog park is as a hit for the chocolate lab in our group. Pool is good sized and clean. Great bang for the buck and we’ll definitely be back. I know some reviews mention the trains and while you can hear them, they weren’t noticeable to us. It does probably help to be here in the heat and running the AC all night though. They do need to mow the chipping area but that’s a small critique.
