Sparks Marina RV Park

Great location Very clean and we found the staff very friendly. So if you are in town for one of the many Reno events its a great location, we were in town for the Air Races and had a great stay.
The park is very clean and well kept. but for some reason our beagle didn't care much for the dog runs. so we had to walk her down the road or across the street to find some real grass.maybe too many smells concentrated in one area in the gravel for her liking.

I’m sorry several people think the staff is rude, but my experience has very positive. This is my 3rd stay as one of our kids lives here. The staff been great every time, the park is clean, the spaces are reasonably large and the location is great. I have visitors every few days and the staff is supportive. We will stay here again for sure.

While the negative reviews were pretty humorous, they don’t accurately depict the park. I agree that the rules are a bit strict, however, that is needed to keep it looking the way it does. People are always looking to bend rules, which in turn makes it difficult for those that abide by them. There was always dog poop in the dog run, which is extremely inconsiderate. The park provides bags and even if they didn’t, it is the dog owners responsibility to have them at hand at all times.

I found all staff to be very friendly. My only complaint is I asked for the site closest to the front dog run, but was told it wasn’t available and was given one in the next row and down a few sites. While is wasn’t that far, I was a lone female and it was snowing. I have a small dog that I carried over and back so it would have been more convenient to have been right next to it. I was there for 12 days and no one moved into the site I asked for. That made me a bit upset as I feel they should have been more accommodating.

BTW, there was no rig even close to a Prevost in the park, nor Gucci purse toting woman, lol! That description was completely inaccurate, although it did make me laugh. All the guests and their rigs were completely ‘normal’ with no pretentiousness to be found anywhere.

My brother-in-law has stayed there on a few occasions and was told to move his truck once, which was parked in an empty spot for just a few minutes. Although it irritated him a bit, he did as told and still returns as it’s a well cared for park. Gotta follow the rules!

I parked my truck too far forward to park another RV according to staff and they had the wrong phone number on file thus couldn't get ahold of me. When I returned mid-afternoon I was advised of this, moved my truck and went to the office to update my number. I argued with the staff that I had originally tried to update my information but the staff said they had it. Twenty minutes later the manager comes storming into my site and says I was aggressive with staff and that I must be out of the site in 30 minutes or he was calling the police and I would receive a "summons". As a police officer I am well aware of how to properly deal with people and what constitutes an offence.

Two years ago I had the manager threaten to evict me simply because I had asked that they park an RV one space down from me as there were was lots of spaces so why crowd us together. He got upset and told me not to tell him how to run his park and if I didn't like it I should leave.

These people run their park like a POW camp to put it nicely. Would never stay there again, though I'm sure I am blacklisted now. I wish I had the inclination to contact the owner but why bother.

This is a clean and visually pleasing park. That is the good, the bad is it is a miserable place to stay. The rules and regulations are overbearing, the parking in impossible, and the people who enforce these rules have taken rudeness to a new level. If you want your visitors to be yelled at and forced to park 1/4 mile away on the street.....then be sure to stay here.

Clean, orderly, with lots of amenities. Three separate dog walk areas that were hosed down every day. Good internet quality/speed. Across the street from Sparks Marina, with swimming beaches, an awesome dog beach/park, and running trail. Pool at the RV Park was clean and quiet. Big rig friendly. This is very much an in-town location - no mountain views, wildlife, or grass - but 5 minutes from downtown, 10 minutes to UNR, 15 minutes to Trader Joes/Whole Foods, 5 minutes to outlet shopping (if that's your thing). Would have had 5 stars if the sites were a little bit bigger and/or had real grass (instead of astro-turf)

Arrival:
We only got to stay here due to a cancellation (and every last hotel was booked too!) Phone reservation handled quickly and accurately. At arrival, greeted by a porter. Gave us some brief info and directed us to the office. Check in was quick, concise and pleasant. Porter then escorted us to our site, assisted with parking/backing (it's just a teardrop, took all of 5 minutes!) Showed us the hookups. (We only needed electric but water and sewer was available.)
The facility:
Clean. Clean. Clean. Three restroom/bathhouses conveniently located across the grounds. Three pet runs. Club house, BBQ patio, laundromat, pool and hot tub (adults only!)
The camp store is well stocked with a great assortment of foods to suit all tastes, plenty of personal care products, and cold drinks (no alcohol though.) Wifi available and had a decent range. Propane available on site also.
Security is on site all hours. They are prompt to respond to assist or for general needs.
This is the place to be for big rigs. There's a large amount of dollars sitting in this place. I think the best part was rolling in with our teardrop in tow. 200-some spaces and only two teardrops in the entire place!
We are not usually campground type folks, but we will definitely be staying here when in Reno area instead of overpriced hotels!

Really good RV park. Spaces are close together, but the sites have artificial turf rather than grass. (This is good because you don't track dirt into your coach.)
This is an extremely neat park and their maintenance people are constantly sweeping, cleaning and emptying the trash. The clubhouse is large and clean with a full kitchen and plenty of space. Our club had 22- 40+ feet coaches for this stay. Great staff, excellent staff, (swimming pool was closed for maintenance, but the hot tub was open). Free WIFI, clean restrooms. Most definitely will stay there again. No problems checking in. Escorted to site by the staff. (Be careful using your GPS to get there. It may take you into a residential area and to a back gate that is never used. (No fault of the RV park.))
Close proximity to casinos.
Enjoy yourself!!
