Stopped here on way back to Vegas from San Diego and wanted to see Calico Ghost Town. We stayed here for Wi-Fi access only needed to book more reservations. The site we were told was the last one for the evening and would not recommend this site for trailers our size or larger we have 30' which stuck out at both ends. Game room was a change for our kids as we are at state parks mostly. They had a well stocked store and restrooms appeared updated. It is dusty there and the staff was friendly towards us. The showers require tokens which were given to us at check in. Bring your fire pit which most seem to do and the table was worn bring covers 8yr old got a splinter. Would recommend for a stop over or off road fun. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Loved this place. Late check-in easy. Had a late check-out time (12 noon) in the morning too. Very private spaces with tall oleander trees separating. Calm atmosphere. A bit of freeway noise, but not bad. Large dog walk area out back. Friendly staff. Could have used the WI-FI code at night - but it was simple enough to get it in the morning. Only had water and electric sites remaining as it was a weekend night, but the dump was conveniently located. A good place for short or long-term stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The Barstow Calico KOA in Yermo, CA is a nice place to stay if you are passing through this area. It's only 3 miles away from the Ghost Town of Calico (which I didn't have time to see), is easily accessible from Highway 15, and is located near several cute diners. We ate at Peggy Sue's Nifty 50's Diner while here and liked it a lot. There's a pool to swim in and you get a lovely view out your window of the Calico Mountains to the North. The pull-through site we got had plenty of room for our 33' RV with both slides out and our tow vehicle as well. Easy drive in and out. Fairly level dirt site. Dog walk area available. Helpful staff at the registration office. Wi-Fi worked just fine. Shower rooms leave a little to be desired. (They were a little small and cold because there was no heater. The water didn't get that hot and the pressure was kind of low but still did the job.) They were clean at least. Even though the park is right off of the frontage road of I-15 it was still nice and quiet. Lots of big trees to absorb road noise. The park was fine and I would stay again if in Barstow/Calico area in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground has 25 full-hookup sites, plus dozens of partial- and no-hookup sites. I stayed in the electric-only area, which was much less crowded than the full-hookup area. Sites are narrow but long, and are just dirt plus rock. It's not great as a campground, but since you get free admission to the Ghost Town (a tourist trap, but a well-done one) it's a better deal. Amazing scenery around here; be sure to visit Rainbow Basin Natural Area while you're in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I'd like to emphasize that I'm rating just the campground here, NOT the ghost town part of this complex. I feel the campground itself deserves just an average rating. It's not terrible, but it's not particularly great either. We opted for a site with just an electrical hook up. It was quite small and very uneven and rocky as are a lot of the sites. There is no privacy at all between the sites. I thinks this campground could be really dusty in windy weather too. The "ghost town" itself is quite interesting though and well worth a look. There is a small museum, lots of western themed shops, a couple of eateries and a little train ride. You can also take a self-guided tour of a real silver mine for just $1, a terrific bargain. Kids will love this place. Given that your camp fee includes entrance into the ghost town, we'd definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed in full hook-up site #A22 just outside of main circle, made things a bit more private. Park is clean and well equipped for what it is. Sites outside of circle were a bit rough due to recent seven days of steady rain. Price is reasonable only because it includes admission to Ghost Town. Was a good stopover on the way to Death Valley National Park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
