Escondido RV Resort is one of the best we’ve had the privilege to stay at in the San Diego area. Beautiful grounds, swimming pool and other amenities. Bathrooms and laundry are clean and well maintained. Lower level sites are close together, but landscaped for privacy. (Site 68) The upper level sites are more expensive but offer more room for lawn chairs and visitors. I highly recommend this park...

Wow, just wow! So impressed by this resort! It's so clean and beautiful, the spaces are level and well shaded, great landscaping and amenities. The pool is warm and restrooms are very clean. The little park next to it was great for the kids. Staff (Emma & Chris) were so kind and welcoming, we will definitely be adding this to our list of places to stay again

The park is very clean and well-maintained. We stayed over the holidays to be close to family. The front-office staff made us feel welcomed - and we were greeted with a goody bag and offered hot drinks and cookies (Thanks Stacy and Chris).

As close to family as it gets. The staff are beyond helpful, they listen and offer and assistance needed for your enjoyed stay. I can't say enough for this place, the amenities were the best. Kids loved the pool and spa and park up top. Then there's the on-site holiday parties the resort throws for the tenants. AMAZING HANDS DOWN!!!! Extended Family.
