Nice campground right on the ocean. I'd rate it higher but there aren't any real amenities besides the view and there was some stuff stolen from other campers while we were there. We chose a "wall" site, but the back in sites are pretty nice as well. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped during the week (Tues-Fri). The campground was only 30% full. We had a great time, just watching the ocean. It is a beautiful site but primitive and pretty rocky. We would definitely go again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

No services whatsoever, but when you can park 100 feet from the ocean for such a reasonable price, there isn't much to complain about! The beach is beautiful. Trains go by but the sound of the surf is so loud that you can't really hear them. There's no dump here, but there is one that you can use for free at a nearby park. Make sure to ask the ranger before you leave and he or she will direct you there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We are a family with small children, pulling a 32 ft travel trailer. The campground is operated by the county of Ventura, and all sites are on a first come first served basis, there are NO reservations. Most sites are gravel. All of the sites are level. There are 15 sites with full hook ups. All of the amenities are in good working order, and the campground and facilities were clean and well maintained. The hosts (new hosts as of December 2006) are pleasant and helpful and made our stay very enjoyable. There are train tracks nearby that carry freight a few times per night, but we were not bothered. This campground is as close to the beach as you can get without being in the water! The sites are very close together, and I suspect things can feel very cramped when the park is full to capacity. We were there in the off-season, and the campground was nowhere near full. Overall, for ocean front camping it does not get better than this! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here one night on our way home from Northern California. Daily rates have increased to $40 per day for full hookups and $27 for dry camping sites. Great view of ocean, which is less than 50 feet away at high tide! First come, first serve...no reservations. Fire rings at each site, nice store/grill on site. Generators off from 10pm to 7am. Recommend very highly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is newly renovated and has excellent hookup sites on the beach. Very clean, with a nice camp store. Visited in 2004. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This little park is run by Ventura County. Of the 41 sites, 10 are full hookup. The rest are dry camping sites. There is a little grill on site where you can get breakfast, or lunch, plus wood ($6. 00 per bundle of oak wood), and a few other necessities. Great ocean views. Located on the north end of Rincon Parkway. The dry camp spots cost $27 per night and $40 for full hookups. This is a "first come, first serve" campground just like Rincon Parkway, and Faria Beach. Fire rings are included in each space. Quiet time is 10pm to 7am. Generators can be run from 7am to 10pm and you will hear them going during the day. Spaces are very close together, so if you don't like an intimate setting this park is not for you, but if you like great weather, and great ocean views this is the place! We camped here in a Motorhome.

It is awesome to be able to park parallel to the ocean along Rincon Parkway, the waves crashing non-stop outside of the window. The waves are so loud if fact that it even masks the fairly frequent trains that run on the other side of the road. I especially love watching the white pelicans fly by and the dolphins, while looking out over the glistening ocean to the Channel Islands (assuming it's not foggy). The beach is really nice to walk along with fairly good wave break, althouh the sand disappears at high tide. The water is so close to the road that it would not be the place to be during a big storm or a tsunami! Another plus is the access to awesome biking along the Class II Rincon Parkway, and 5 miles toward Ventura start a series of Class I (ie off road) easy bike trails that go along the Ventura waterfront, and all the way to Ojai. Or, cycle into lovely downtown Ventura. We had been here 10 years ago (when the cost was around $10) and thoroughly enjoyed it. This time, unfortunately, we stayed here on Easter weekend, and were not here to party, but instead to find a place to camp in the area on one of the busiest camping weekends. We arrived Thursday noon and grabbed one of only 10 remaining sites (out of 150 or so). Rigs practically kiss each other end to end, so every inch of your site is gold. On one side of us, a large group had a huge bonfire on their site pad next to the rocks (which is not allowed) and were so loud in the afternoon and evening that we could barely hear the waves! This was one time we didn't feel guilty running our diesel generator for several hours in the evening. They left a huge mess of ashes and beer cans. Perhaps the $25 fee goes toward cleaning up after people like that, because there are no amenities except for a few port-a-potties and trash dumpsters. The posted rules say nothing about 'quiet hours,' only that vehicles must be self contained and fires must be in a commercial bbq. There are no camp hosts, only rangers who only seem to come by if someone hasn't paid their fees, so it is like staying in a lawless wild west town. I assume most weekends and holidays as well as all summer long are like this here. I hate places with too many rules, but this is what happens when you have no controls. I will only stay here again on a weekend if I am with a large group myself, or else during a nice quiet winter weekday for some wonderful oceanside solitude. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Many people might question the 10's that this "campground" receives; after all there are no facilities, no amenities, and the freeway and the train tracks are directly behind you. But it is all about having 50' of Pacific Ocean frontage to call your own for a few days! The waves crash right outside your RV so you never even hear the freeway and even the 11:00 pm freight train only barely catches your attention with some vibration. You have the perfect view of the sunsets and can enjoy all the walks on the beach your sandy feet can handle. The RV park just south in Malibu charges 3-4 times the amount and you only get to view the ocean from high up on a bluff across the highway. Here you get salt spray on your rig! Plan ahead as there are no reservations, and this area gets crowded. We live locally and this is a favorite area to come stay a few days for complete relaxation! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We took our grandchildren to Rincon for the 3rd time and they love it. They never fight with each other either. The weather was wonderful. Burbank was 101 degrees. We were in 70s. It's first come first serve so get there on Wed or Thurs during summer months. It's dry camping so bring a portable shower. You can only stay 5 days during summer months. Too bad. I would stay longer. The best in Ventura for us. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Only camped here for one night on our way up North. You are right next to the 101 freeway so it is extremely noisy all the time. For the Wi-Fi you need to go to the office to be near their router. For what they charge they should have a better Wi-Fi system. Also they do not have cable TV hookups. Would only stay here again if I had no other choice. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

At $65 per night - ouch. I didn't get Wi-Fi on pad 60. See my review for April 2007. Not much has changed except for the gouging price. My coach has storage boxes that hang off the slides. Expect them to get wet because of the parks sprinkler system. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great RV park if you are looking for close proximity to Ventura, Ojai, or Santa Barbara. The park is very clean and well-maintained. The staff were hot and cold, nice one minute, not so nice the next. The pool is sparkling clean, and the little store has enough for some basics. The grass between the spots is very nice. Some freeway noise, but not too bad. One major, I mean MAJOR problem, is the homeless and vagrants that come out of the riverbottom adjacent to the park and steal your BBQ or anything else not locked down. Our little Weber BBQ was not locked down, so now it's gone. They come in the middle of the night or in the daytime. We spoke with some other RVers there who said these vagrants have been known to even carry bolt cutters to cut the lock and cable holding bicycles secure. SO...a STRONG word of WARNING. Beware of the homeless and vagrants from the Ventura Riverbottom area. The staff did not warn us of this so shame on them! This homeless/vagrant, theft problem is why this parks get a 4 and not an 8, and the staff's attitude did not help either. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
