Good park, recently upgraded. Good electric, concrete pads, very convenient to town of Napa, excellent campground hosts that meet you on your arrival. Will hold even the largest of Motorcoach's. When approaching park from south wait until traffic is clear and go left of huge utility pole at entrance. They do not take reservations, so arrive before noon or you may not get a spot. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very nice park and the perfect place to stay when visiting the Napa valley. Very nice hosts. Other recent reviews are right on. Generally very quiet at night once the local traffic dies down, but we had some noise one night from people leaving a reception at one of the Expo buildings. The only other negatives are no cable TV or wi-fi, and only 18 sites. Arrive early to get a spot as they don't take reservations, and cash only. Hard to believe there are no other RV parks in the Napa area, but at least this is a good one. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great park to see the Napa area from. Access the park from the Silverado Trail....not 3rd street. Concrete sites are well spaced. Nice grass and perfect paved roads. The host was very friendly. The hookups are a 10. The only bummer is that they don't take reservations, and I never could get anyone to answer the phone. Less than 60 minutes to Fishermans Wharf. Less than 60 minutes to the ocean. Wine tasting up the wazoo. One of the best in the bay area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We found this to be a very nice park to stay in while touring the area. Long concrete pads with plenty of space for even the bigger motorhomes as there were several very high end ones staying when we did. Full hook ups and picnic tables at every site. Camp hosts are very friendly and went out of their way to make sure we were enjoying our stay. Although they do not have wi-fi, when we inquired we were informed that we could go up to the main office and get internet connection during their working hours. Again very accommodating. Outside the RV Park area, the rest of the grounds were very parklike and a nice safe place to take a walk. Close to downtown, excellent restaurants, Copia and the Wine Train Station. They are a certified Good Sam Park and offer a discount for members. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had reservations at Skyline Park for a weeks stay. After one night there, we were able to move to Napa Valley Expo, very nice! Nicer than Napa Fairgrounds in Calistoga and a lot nicer than Skyline Wilderness park. The concrete pull-throughs were almost 80ft long! They have all new utilities and the showers and baths were cleaned daily. It is in the middle of town but almost no noise! The main entrance does close at night but an alternative entrance is open around the clock. Friendly staff and a very nice park-like setting. Very dog friendly with lots of streets inside the expo center to walk with virtually no traffic to worry about...The down side is they don't take reservations. Although, after staying there for six days, turnover of sites is pretty regular. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Still not a destination park, but the improvements are very nice. Concrete pads (but you will still need to level) and full hook-ups are now available. Not all sites have a picnic table. Camp hosts are very friendly and helpful. They do not take reservations, and the gate to the park locks in the evening. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has been rebuilt as there are brand new concrete pads, electrical and very little vegetation. I didn't notice a lot of trees like what was mentioned in a previous review, at least near our site, so they must have removed many during the rebuild. Close enough to walk downtown and to the Wine Train in 10-15 minutes. If there is something going on at the Expo Center it can get noisy along the driveway with traffic. Overall it is a no-frills clean park. Host was helpful and friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice campground close to downtown Napa. New area being constructed that will be very nice. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is really not a campground. The parking is on large curb areas within the park. There is a dump station and 50 amp service at sites. Almost all of the sites are in the trees. It is, however, a great location for camping while doing a wine tour. The camp host was most helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Excellent field located right in the middle of Napa. Convenient to downtown and the local wineries. 50 AMP available at a few sites, but mostly 30. Large grassy field that is level and nice, clean restrooms. Current host informed us that they are putting in sewer and updating the park over the next few months. He also indicated the price will be going up substantially. We came for 2 days and ended up staying for a week. We camped here in a Motorhome.
It's just a big, level, grassy field--but it gets the job done. Partial hookups at the site and a dump station by the entrance. No reservations. Very convenient location for visiting the wineries in the area. Watch out for gate locking time, we were stuck outside at about 10:30--but the friendly security guard saw us and let us in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
It was just okay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great place tour Napa, we stayed here on July 4th and enjoyed a wonderful fireworks show almost over the top of us. You park on a grass area that is pretty level with some sites that have partial hookups (no sewer). Very close to the downtown area and the river, within easy walking distance. Friendly host and went out of his way to find us a place with hookups. This is actually part of the Expo fairgrounds. Stayed in a Itasca 30' Class A We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed the Staff which were very accomodating. We had "requested" a Full hookup site, which are on a First Come First Serve basis. They were able to set us up and this made our stay even better. We like the access to hiking trails and the ability to see a lot of Wildlife. We will definitely visit again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
If you are looking for an inexpensive campground, with no amenities, that is conveniently located to wine country - this is it! If you are looking for anything else, then skip this campground. Skyline Wilderness Park is a very basic campground. The spots were a comfortable size, however, although we had called about 30 amp service, when we arrived and went to our site we found that we were sharing an electrical box with our neighbor and he had already taken the 30 amp service. So, we were stuck with 20 amp service until he left a week later, but that worked for us okay since we did not need our AC. The other occupants in the campground were a combination of people passing through, some that looked like they lived there full time in some very run down campers, and a group of Hispanic men that lived in their camper during the week while they were working in Napa. They were extremely loud in the evening as they always sat outside with their case of beer and bottle of Jaeger. But, they did not bother anybody beyond that. The showers were just okay - not extremely clean, but not awfully dirty either. They water pressure was strong but the you could only depend on having hot water if you were the first person in the showers in the morning. There was only hot water for one shower and if you were not it (which I generally was NOT), you were left with lukewarm to cool water. The best part of the park was how quiet it was (no traffic noise at all), how dark it was (no lights at night to glare into your windows), and how convenient it was to the Silverado Trail, downtown Napa and Sonoma. And for $25/night for full hookups, you can't beat the price to be in the heart of wine country! There is a laundromat right down the street from the park and a grocery store very close by as well. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We picked this campground because it is in a great wilderness area and offers terrific hiking and mountain bike riding. We later discovered that dogs were not allowed on the trails. Must be the horses! The site we had (#18) was great with lots of room. However, if you pick a full hook-up site you will be right on top of the next rig. It is very tight! The facilities are okay, but getting old. Hiking the trails is worth the trip because the area is beautiful. And, you can ride your bike into town rather than burn gas! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is well located and has friendly office personnel. The sites are gravel. There are trees. This is a good, safe place to park with few amenities. We were fortunate to get a full hookup, not all sites have sewer. Everything worked just fine and although this is not a "destination" park for us, it is certainly a nice park for several nights. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Basic but nice camping. Not pretty by any means, but in the springtime hiking in skyline park can be nice. Excellent location for other adventures in the area. Be prepared for windy conditions! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is just a basic county park RV camp ground. People are very friendly and there are a lot of trails to walk. The park is located on the edge of Napa, so it was just about 8 minutes over to Copia and downtown Napa. There is a big shopping center as you go into town. The location is what sells this park. It takes about a week to really see the Napa Valley and I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is a nice find in the Napa area. It is a little hard to find, but the staff are very friendly and helpful. The sites are nothing fancy, but clean and level with full hook-ups or a dump station on your way out. We will stay here again when we're in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We planned on staying two nights here because of the great wine country location, but the stark, gravel parking lot sites made us want to move on. The staff member we met, however, was very friendly and refunded us one night. The bathrooms were reasonable and the park is very quiet. It is adjacent to a large public park with lots of walking trails and a frisbee golf course. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a pleasant alternative to a conventional RV park, surrounded by oak trees in a natural setting, and close to the wine country. Full hook-up sites are available, but are close together. Bigger coaches, such as ours, are best suited to the pull-thrus, which offer electrical and water only. It's quiet at night with nice cricket sounds.The woman who handles registration is very nice and helpful. Only negative note, we thought, was that this park has some (limited) working residents using this as home base and a couple sites needed to be tidied up. Nonetheless, it's a very pleasant place and we would stay here again - actually, we stayed here twice. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This CG is a good choice for touring Napa and Sonoma. Sewer sites are first-come, first-serve but electric/water can be reserved and there is a dump station. There is Napa Coin Laundry nearby - driving distance apx 1 mile. The restrooms were very clean, but the showers were typical "wilderness" showers with a touch of mold on shower curtain and a few spiders and webs. Otherwise they were clean, had all needed hooks, and nice rubber and wooden floor mats. The garden area was wonderful. My kids loved the "secret garden" and always asked to visit it when we were at the campground. The staff was friendly and check-in was pleasant. The trails are nice. We saw wild turkeys and deer. It really is a wonderful place to stay while seeing the Napa, Sonoma and San Francisco area. We would stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Lovely park to stay in while touring the wine country. Close to town. Quiet and secure key gate at night. We did not have time to use all the trails available but loved the gardens and wildlife. Deer, wild turkeys, birds, etc. Friendly helpful staff. Great location. We will return. Too bad it did not have laundry or store, but they are available near by. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very very close to Napa wine country. Only 30 minute drive to Vallejo Ferry terminal and hour ferry boat ride into San Francisco ($17 RT) -- best $17 I spent on entire trip. Jointly owned by county and city government. Well maintained and helpful staff. Also has 20+ miles of hiking trails and native habitat garden. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park will be closing July 13. Very minimal hookups. We dried camp in our RV. Convenient place for launching your boats. Dusty dirty camping. Obnoxious loud foul mouthed campers. People above us were wasted. A few had fallen and rolled down the hill and some were puking right above us. Not a place to bring your kids due to some of the choice words our fellow trashy campers used. Not a peaceful quiet stay at all. A lot of drunk people throughout. Loud and inconsiderate. Some were kicked out at 4:00am for fighting. Security could not keep up having to warn campers to quiet down. Paid in full during reservation and we were told that 2 cars per spot. Not true and charged us extra for 2nd vehicle. Hopefully the new owners will clean up the place. It needs major updating. Overall too much riff raff and the staff are clueless. The nice thing is that we were able to keep our generators on longer since no one else was respecting the quiet time. We were also off away from most. Could be a descent park if there was a way to weed out the lowlifes. Maybe if this was mostly an RV park it would be better. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A good park for access to Lake Berryessa. Most sites are "on the water", or just steps away. A 12 lane boat ramp! Can get busy during holidaya & weekends. Sites are dirt, but level. We camped here in a Tent.
This is a great RV park for boating and fishing and is right on the marina of Lake Berryessa in Napa. It is located right on the water with a fair number of sites on the waterfront. There are a number of spots that offer good shade, but many of the sites do not have any cover. Basically a parking lot right next to the waterfront, but it is convenient for those who are using the lake for recreational boating. Each site has a BBQ and picnic table, but no fire pits. Guests may use their guest slips on a first come first serve basis or you can rent your own slip at a minimal cost at the marina. They also have a pool and a swim/picnic area. During the peak season, there is a restaurant and an ice cream shop on site within a 10 min walk. Right next to the marina there is a general store and a snack shop. This is our campground of choice when we go to Lake Berryessa. We camped here in a Motorhome.
