Full Hookup sites close to Soledad Canyon, CA

I am planning a trip to the LA area - Soledad Canyon, CA to be exact, and the campgrounds I am coming up with leave a lot to be desired.

There are like 2 KOAs (Acton and Ventura Ranch) and while the latter has decent reviews there are no sites available for the time we want to be there (mid August). The reviews for the one in Acton does give me a good feeling.

I am going there to visit family and don't want to drag my portable tank there, hence the need for full hookups.

I am a member of Good Sam (and KOA) and am wondering if anyone can recommend a nice full hookup park in that area. Looking at the results in CA makes me feel blessed to be living in Texas as far as RV camping goes.
  • I can see convergence on Valencia. :) Not really interested in getting close to or even seeing LA or any of the attractions that it has to offer, especially if it entails seeing / encountering lots of traffic and people. Not my cup of tea. So the farther north the better. As I mentioned I would be making the 1500 mile trek to get there in the first place so (a reasonable) distance away from the relatives living in Santa Clarita (say up to 50 miles) is not really an issue for me.
  • Then I doubt anyone here can help since youve optioned yourself out. Travel Village is by far the closest to Santa Clarita and is nowhere near Los Angeles proper. Its 15mins drive time from almost anywhere in Santa Clarita, and I doubt you have any idea of the traffic patterns in this area, so not sure of the unfounded objections.
  • DW called Valencia Travel Village, spoke to a very nice supposing woman and floor reservations for the stay. I will revert with a review when done.

    i don't think you'll be disappointed, but it's also really the only other choice to Soledad unless you drive to Ventura or Bakersfield.
