About Morro Strand RV Park

Campground in California.

Morro Strand RV Park offers a unique camping experience in the heart of California's stunning Central Coast, located in the charming community of Morro Bay. Situated at 221 Highway 41 West, this RV park provides convenient access to one of the state's most picturesque coastal regions, where rugged cliffs meet pristine beaches and small-town charm thrives.

The Morro Bay area is renowned for its natural beauty and outdoor recreation opportunities. The crown jewel of the region is Morro Rock, a distinctive 576-foot volcanic peak that rises dramatically from the bay's waters and has become an iconic symbol of the Central Coast. This geological wonder provides stunning photo opportunities and serves as a focal point for understanding the region's rich natural history. The bay itself is perfect for kayaking, fishing, and wildlife watching, with opportunities to spot sea otters, harbor seals, and various seabirds throughout the year.

Beyond the water, the surrounding landscape offers excellent hiking and walking trails that showcase the diverse California coastal ecosystem. State parks and natural reserves nearby provide visitors with miles of scenic paths suitable for various fitness levels. The mild Mediterranean climate makes outdoor activities enjoyable throughout much of the year, with cool ocean breezes tempering summer heat and mild winters allowing year-round exploration.

The town of Morro Bay itself is a delightful destination with a working waterfront, local restaurants, galleries, and shops that reflect the area's artistic and fishing heritage. The waterfront promenade invites leisurely strolls, fresh seafood dining, and observation of the active fishing fleet. For those interested in California history and culture, the region offers proximity to historic missions and charming coastal towns that tell the story of the state's past.

This location appeals to RV travelers seeking a balance of natural beauty, outdoor recreation, and authentic coastal community experiences. Whether you're interested in wildlife observation, hiking, fishing, photography, or simply enjoying fresh ocean air and scenic vistas, Morro Strand RV Park serves as an ideal basecamp for exploring this remarkable stretch of California coastline.

Location is cool but ownership/management was not good.

Location is cool but ownership/management was not good.

We felt a little paranoid to leave our camp unattended after that. It was unfortunate because the area is beautiful but we always felt rushed to get back to the camp. No hot water in the bathrooms during our stay. Definitely would not stay here again. I’d just go with a different campground in the same area if we return!

We booked two sites about eight months in advance and were told by the girl who works in the office that we were being given some of the best sites in the park. Then the owner, Larry, called us a couple of weeks before our arrival and asked us to switch sites. Telling us that the ones we had booked were no good and the ones he wanted us in were much better.

We booked two sites about eight months in advance and were told by the girl who works in the office that we were being given some of the best sites in the park. Then the owner, Larry, called us a couple of weeks before our arrival and asked us to switch sites. Telling us that the ones we had booked were no good and the ones he wanted us in were much better. We declined. Glad we did. The sites he wanted us to switch to were half the size of the ones that we already had. He was just trying to gaslight us so that someone else could have our spots. Once we got there the entire back half of our site was completely flooded preventing us from backing in all the way. Fortunately it dissipated quickly. When we mentioned it to Larry he said that we would have to “talk to God about that”. They do have showers on site but the hot water didn’t work. When my wife went to the office to mention it to them she was told that we were doing it wrong and the way to do it is to turn on the hot water faucet that is on the outside of the bathroom until hot water comes out and then go to the shower and turn on the hot water. I don’t know why we didn’t think of that. By the second day of that we were told that the water heater was broken and there would be no more hot water until it was fixed. That didn’t happen during the remainder of our stay. Lastly, my daughter and her partner had four storage totes stacked neatly in front of their rv and Larry came over and very rudely told her that they couldn’t have those there and that “this isn’t a storage facility”. Completely ignoring the other campers there who also had totes outside of their rigs. Overall we were very happy to be in Morro Bay but next time we’re there we’ll seek accommodations elsewhere. Between the facilities being kept in a state of disrepair and, most of all, Larry we have no desire to stay in that park again.

This is a nice basic RV park with very clean facilities and friendly staff. Just a short walk to the beach and also a great walking/biking path to the harbor area, with plenty of restaurants, bars and shopping! We love Morro Bay and will definately stay here again.

Our 30’ Airstream and we love this place- walk everywhere, bike paths, beaches- - I saw a review that said the spaces were small- NOT AT All - we travel in our trailer 3 months a year and this is our second time back here and booked next summer as well. While we love Morro Bay State Park camping - they just don’t have sewer and you need to be on top of your reservations 6 months in advance - not so here - clean laundry area and clean campground full hookups and plenty of space. Walk the beach or Embarcadero in Morro bay, drive to Cambria (art and shopping) or San Simeon for a great hike- endless places to enjoy. Thanks for a great stay (again).

We love staying at this RV park. The deluxe sites are spacious, the facilities are clean. The staff and owner are wonderful. Krystal always greets you with a smile and goes out of her way to help you with your needs. Within walking and biking distance to downtown. And the view of the Rock is amazing.
