Pacific Dunes Ranch & RV Resort

Pacific Dunes Ranch RV Resort was the ultimate Pismo Beach Oasis. We especially loved the location, the staff, and the nearby attractions. The staff provided information about local attractions and made us feel welcome.

On the downside we would have liked to have a better internet connection (very weak and slow even though we paid for it) and there was only one shower stall in each of the bath-houses on the upper level.

Otherwise we really loved the park and the area. We recommend site number #192 which has the greatest views of the sand dunes, the horses, and you will have a great neighbor to boot!

We will definitely be back to this beautiful area and this park.

We camped here overnight but we would have stayed longer if we had more time. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we absolutely loved the location. Right on the dunes, very quiet at night and close to the town of Pismo Beach. From our site, it was only 100 feet to the trailhead which led right into the most stunning dune landscape. Provided you wear the right kind of shoes, hiking to the beach takes between 20 and 30 minutes. Another great thing about a location this close to the ocean is that there are no mosquitoes.
On our hike we were treated to an absolutely fabulous sunset. Considering the number of photographers present, this was no exception. Make sure you head back on time, because after the sun is gone, it is really dark out there.
It was a little windy. We had a site in the upper part, which meant proximity to the dunes and a terrific view, but more wind. If you want less wind, find a spot in the lower part. It will be a little further from the trailhead and the view will not be as nice, but the wind will be much less. The road up the hill to the upper part is a pretty steep incline, but by all means doable.
The sites are not very large. Our site was big enough to get in and out easily, but we would have liked a little more room for privacy. But considering the whole package, we were very happy to be here!
