Flag City RV Resort

We stayed here in January 2024 and got a Passport America discount. Traveling south on US-101, then US-12 east, our RV GPS took us right to this campground (CG). Check-in was quick and easy, and we proceeded unescorted to pull through site 32 with FHUs. The cement pad was plenty long enough for our 40’ fifth wheel and unhooked F450. The utilities are on the back quarter of the pad. We needed 15’ of sewer hose. The water pressure was okay at about 40 psi. We got 4 bars on Verizon. They have Wifi and you can upgrade for a price to streaming quality. The CG has a small convenience store that sells ice and propane. This CG is mainly a short-term stay place but there are what seem to be permanent parties plus transient workers with site areas clean and organized. There are a lot of feral cats in this CG. They have a huge fenced dog area in the drainage bowl behind the office that also has solar panels on the outskirts. We did not use the area due to the recent rain. We wished we’d spent a few more days to explore the area, especially the wineries.

We stayed here for two nights. We have a 43 foot fifth wheel, and had plenty of space. The sites had a picnic table rocks in between them no fire pits. My husband didn’t like that the dump holes were elevated, but other than that everything was wonderful.
We saw Security driving around continuously. There was a pool, hot tub, we had views of the vineyards. Didn’t hear much of the highway traffic at all.
One point to make it easier for the rest of you. Most of the gas stations around there carried bio diesel. Only the Sinclair and shell had diesel number two.
Both of those are harder to get into, so we recommend you fill up while you are detached from your rig.
Also I highly recommend going to the Michael David Winery for breakfast!! Everything was so good, breakfast was about $16 each, but I am gluten-free, and they let me have fruit instead of toast.
They also have a little store where you can pick up bottles of wine, fruit, salami‘s, and cheeses, also cookies pastries and pies.

Big concrete RV park with expensive wine in the office, just GO TO COSTCO and get Lodi wines for less. Lots of cable channels, free coffee and snacks sold in the office. Large pole at sight preventing slide out so had to move trailer and park our truck sideways. Garbage bags are placed at the curb, nice till your neighbors slides over to your site. Sad stray cats followed us to laundry. When I asked at the office the gal said, they are aware of the stray cat problem but they have their purpose and smiles. Even sadder. Asked if we could stay another 2 nights and after 12 days another gal wouldnt give us the bi-weekly rate and charged us a daily rate for two days. Ridiculous on both counts. Not much to do in the area, but it was a decent park close to Sacramento.
OH THIS IS ALSO COW CRAP CAPITAL. Huge miserable cow lots that are 1.5 miles north, south, east and west, they are surrounded by feed lots. Kept smelling it but until we drove around didnt realize how many there were.

We stayed here a few days so we could use the Sacramento airport for a round-trip flight. Located near the corner of I-5 and California Route 12, the campground shares the area with a lot of gas stations and fast food places, and is surrounded by roads on every side, so there is a lot of road noise. The campground is laid out as a set of concentric rectangles surrounding a large rectangle of solar panel installations. Inside the rectangle of solar panels is a grassy open area that fills up with water (to some extent) to form a large pond at certain times of the year, but it was dry during our stay. Dogs are allowed off-leash in this huge fenced-in area, but the two single-door gates that allow entrance to the area are on nearly opposite ends of the enclosure, so guarding those exits from escape-minded dogs would be challenging. We didn’t see a lot of dog owners using that area: most of them walked their dogs along the fenced dirt and bush outer perimeter of the campground like we did. Dog owners should also be aware that there are a number of cats that roam freely throughout the campground.

With the exception of the sites that backed up to the central area, the majority of the sites are pull-through and fairly identical: all of them have concrete pads with a concrete extension to serve as the patio. The rest of the site is covered with large stone gravel. The hookups are all located in a convenient spot about 1/3 of the way from the back of the site and includes a cable hookup. The sites are close together but there’s enough space to put out awnings, though it was fairly windy during our entire stay. Each site comes with a picnic table but no fire pit. We did end up putting a board under one site of tires at our site (E38) to make leveling a little easier. A few sites are designated as wheelchair-accessible

The office is just off to the left as you pull into the campground: it’s hard to miss with the covered drive-through lanes. Next to the office is the pool with a small circular spa, and next to that a building with showers, restrooms, and laundry facilities. Just across the road from that set of amenities is a propane refill station, a dumpster for trash and a dumpster for recycling, and a clubhouse. There are three other dumpsters located near the outer corners of the campground and two other bathhouse buildings with showers, bathrooms and laundry machines.

In terms of cell service, the speed readings I got on my Verizon Jetpack with MIMO antenna the afternoon we arrived weren’t great: after reorienting my antenna a few times, I eventually saw 4Mbps down and 10 up. But on most days, we had decent bandwidth during the morning and early afternoon; downloading web pages or streaming any video became difficult and sometimes impractical during the evenings. The speed test I did with my AT&T phone showed 1.2Mbps down and 1.5 up, but on the few occasions I used it in the evening it seemed a bit faster than the Verizon connection. The campground does offer WiFi (and seemed to have a good number of WiFi towers) but the campground said that the bandwidth would be very limited unless you paid extra so we didn’t even try it.

Even with the bandwidth issues, we would probably stay here again if we were in the area.

The first time we stayed here it couldn’t have been more perfect. That was in late January. We’re here in mid April. We asked for a pull through site and got a back in…to mud. The surrounding sites have gravel and large stone areas around the cement pads. We got mud. No gravel, no stones. The truck is parked crosswise to our spot in half a foot deep in MUD. Ugh. Very disappointed and I wonder if we will trust management to return. Otherwise this is a very good, clean and feels safe place. Too bad we got the big mud pie. There is no discernible reason why this spot has no gravel, nothing to keep it from being a mud pie when there is a little rain. I don’t want to put my outdoor rug down into oozing mud.

I must commend this facility for continuing to improve. For decades, we’ve stayed at this park on our treks from our home base in So Cal to points north. Past reviews will document past upgrades. Since our last visit, they’ve addressed the demand for streamable internet. It is now available for a small extra fee. Only stayed overnight this trip, so we didn’t take advantage of it, but next time . . .

Came in very late with no reservation pulling 40+ fifth wheel , they had 2 spots available clearly marked on a dry erase map, says leave your name and number and we will see you tomorrow, clean and spacious had no problem maneuvering and parking 40 foot fifth wheel , next time I will make a reservation because this will be my go to spot in this area , internet was ok with a $2 charge to upgrade to faster service however even with the upgrade it still was not as as fast as I am use to at home but good enough .

Very quick and easy check-in. Covered entrance is a little intimidating because it looks too low! Interior roads are wide, paved and easy to navigate. Sites are concrete and mostly level. Sites are near by and there is no privacy. Between the sites are trees and rocks – which used to be weeds and sparse grass so a great improvement. The basic WII FI didn’t work. You have to pay extra for, what I presume, is more reliable and speedy internet. Verizon was 5g 5 bars so our hot spot worked fine. Satellite would not be a problem. The park is in a very busy area. There are lots of trucks and traffic noise from I-5, Banner road and 12.
