Sequoia RV Ranch near Three Rivers California and Sequoia Natl Park.
Best private campground we've been to in that area you can get spots right on the river.
Shaver Lake- Edison campground has full hookups. Some sites have water view for the other sites the lake is close and has a great beach with picnic tables for day use. There is another campground on the lake I think it's called Dora Belle....check www.rvparkreviews.com Note: you climb from 500 feet elevation to almost 6000 feet in about 17 miles of switchbacks 6 to 10% grade. Keep in mind you have to go back down when you're through.
Chula Vista RV Resort- It's at the south end of San Diego Bay some sites back up to the bay so you get a view. It's a good base camp for doing the tourist stuff in the San Diego area.
Rincon Parkway, Ventura- You park parallel to the beach on a bluff 10 feet above the beach. Great ocean views and sunsets. It's boondocking limited to 5 days and first come first serve spots. You need to arrive on Wednesday to get a spot through the weekend. Or Sunday to get a spot for the week.
California Hot Springs- east of Ducor, CA. It's a very rustic campground with hookups. There is a large hot springs pool and creek.
The pool is from the 1900s when this was a health resort. It's all been remodelled and is fun for a couple of days. Nice mountain setting with hiking trails. Before you get to California Hot Springs there is a private campground next to a large creek/small river.
