We tent camped in the infield for 10+ years while attending races here in the 80-90’s. I admit I looked up the hill at the RV campers with a little envy. Fast forward and we are now RVers, and not missing our old tent much.
I was reluctant to book a site based on the unimpressive satellite image of the place. Very happy we did. In general, the sites are clean (except for trash left in the fire pit by previous occupant. Slobs!), spacious and views in every direction. Ours had a great view of the world famous raceway. Others will have foothill views or lower views of the nearby golf course. There are oaks disbursed throughout the campground. They have sites to accommodate all sizes of RV’s and most appear to be reasonable back-in. Some would be challenging, at least for me.
Now for the part some reviews have complained about: noise. It’s next to a race track (duh), there’s a gun range nearby and the airport is in the vicinity (all things I love). There were no cars running this weekend, the gun range was barely noticeable as was the case for plane noise. If you are noise sensitive, don’t stay. If you do, don’t write a poor review because of your choice.
This is a great campground. We are already planning our return. It’s close to all things on the Monterey Peninsula. We’ve been coming to Monterey for 40 years and pretty much avoid the tourist spots, but we enjoy the Big Sur area, random drives in the hills and visiting farms/wineries.
And, the staff are great. Friendly and helpful.

DATES: March 17-22. Nothing but great things to say about this place. They were able to accommodate us on short notice and were able to help us park our tow trailer. We only had 30 amp electrical but really that was all we needed for the time we were there. Fantastic views and having cars driving around a racetrack is always awesome!

We came at day where it was very hot, the woman who served us did everything she could to find the perfect pitch for our car so it could stay in the shade

We needed a stop for a weekend and found many open sites here. Yes, it’s loud, car racing and practice during the day, but stopped at 5. Lots of area to explore. No potable water, so go full. Great staff. Cool weather was nice as most places now are over 90.

We camped up on the Corkscrew in 554. While this site does not afford a direct view of the Corkscrew, we would take that side again in order to watch the racing as you can walk easily to a spot that affords one a good view of it. There was enough room to get our 23 ft camper into the spot and we did not hear the gun range other folks talked about. We were there for a race event and it rocked!
Can’t wait for next year.

Great campsite with wonderful views on the rolling hills. We stayed there 3 nights while exploring the area of Monterey. Our site had electrical and water (but no sewer). Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at that spot.
