San Francisco RV Resort

In this video, we give you a walking tour of the San Francisco RV Resort located in Pacifica, California. We stayed three nights at the San Francisco RV Resort using our Thousand Trails Membership with the optional Trails Collection Plus add-on. We paid $20 per night to camp here. Verizon cellular service clocked in at 37.6 Mbps download speed and 4.14 Mbps upload speed. AT&T cellular service clocked in at 30.8 Mbps download speed and 5.30 Mbps upload speed. T-Mobile cellular service clocked in at 46.2 Mbps download speed and 1.37 Mbps upload speed.

I can’t give a RV park stars just because it is in a convenient location. If the location wasn’t good I wouldn’t have stayed.

The pool was closed, bathrooms were dirty, spots right on top of eachother, and construction going on blocking all views and super noisy early in the morning.

Walked out of my trailer to have construction workers staring at my wife.

Paid for “ocean view” and was about 8 spots in from the end. I positioned the trailer so we could slightly see down the row towards the ocean but that didn’t last long. They brought in front end loaders, dump trucks, generators etc and set up a construction site cutting concrete all day every day.

Not worth the money, could have stayed at candlestick for better location if I wanted to stay in the hood.

As other reviews have mentioned, this RV resort is basically a parking lot. You will be within a few feet, if lucky, of your neighbors. This is the only downside of the resort.

The reason we selected SFRVR was to be close to San Fran and do all of the touristy stuff and this was the perfect spot to stay for that.

The playground was closed as they will be rebuilding it, but the pool was open ​and heated to 88 degrees so it can be used even on the cool coast.

We were also super lucky to be put next to fantastic neighbors that had kids the same age as ours, and we hung out many evenings with them.

Face it, if you want to stay in your RV near a place like San Francisco, you have to expect a parking lot with utilities. We have a 43' Forest River with four slides and there were zero issues opening them up and moving about. I suspect those who are having problems don't really understand the best way to set up their rigs. Those of you familiar with Orlando: the parking is a lot like the side by side sites in the A section.

The water pressure is good, the electricity was constant, and the ocean view is spectacular. It's too bad they lost a bunch of the park to erosion, but it is a 60' cliff right against the ocean so it's not surprising.

We have two dogs and had no problems walking them. There are dog walking areas with plenty of space for the pooches to do their business.

Being so close to the city was amazing and having a Safeway withing walking distance is always nice. Cell reception is great and there were plenty of over-the-air channels. The laundry is good and reasonably priced. The store/office is only open until 4pm which is a tad annoying, but you work with what you have.

Noise is an issue unless you're used to traffic noise. We lived up against the I-95/I-64 interchange for 15 years and have a well insulated rig so for us it wasn't a problem. Some will find it intolerable. No trains, but the airport has a flight path over the campground. However, the planes are a few thousand feet up so not a huge problem.

Warning as you travel: just a few miles south and AT&T has dead zones. Verizon is pretty consistently good through the whole area.

It's early December, so the weather is kind of lousy and the wind is blowing pretty hard, causing the rig to rock. Can't put out the awning unless we want to damage it. Glad we have the thermal package otherwise heating/condensation might be an issue.

Expensive for smaller spots in a parking lot, with good hook ups, but the views and relatively close access to San Francisco cannot be beat for the area. Uber/Lyft accessible. Short walk to food, ice cream, coffee. Picnic table, no fire ring. Laundry, restrooms, showers and RV supplies in the main building. Grassy areas for pet relief. Friendly staff, and we will stay here again in the future.
