Seasonal site

Hi there,

Does anyone have a seasonal site in Northern California? Seasonal sites seem to be a back east thing.

Thanks
  • All I can think of is a bunch of RV parks that have slowly evolved into Trailer Parks. Many seasonal folks there. Actually, multiple seasons. :)

    We store our trailer at Lake Camanche, South Shore. It's been good but lately Monument RV park is getting a little rowdy. I'm just keeping my options open. Do you know of any parks in the foothills? Or even up in the Sierras?
  • Generally speaking, most of the popular lakes have some sort of RV resort/seasonal camping areas. Of course, the ones that I know about specifically, have waiting lists.
    You could do search here, Allstays Link, you may find something. Enjoy.
  • California has some residency restrictions for RV parks. There are no seasons in California except hot and not so hot.

    Most RV parks have monthly stay rates; the rates adjust higher during the "Season" usually June to September. That's about as seasonal as it gets.

    I was recently in northern cal.

    The park I was at said that after 3 weeks I had to apply to be a permie, which involved credit check, etc. I did that even though I only stayed one more month. (We negotiated a verbal agreement that did not fit these categories -- the understanding that I was not a 'real' permie, and they could go ahead and rent the site to someone else for longer term starting the next month, they only charged me for the days I was there, not from the 1st to the 1st of the month, I did not have to give notice, etc.)

    Not sure whether that was county or state law, but I called some parks in neighboring counties (for future reference) and that seemed to be the general way things are done.

    One park manager did say he was considering implementing a 3-month option, as well as temp/perm, but had not done so yet.

    None of these were at lakes. They were in the central valley and foothills.

    Hi noonenosthis1,

    You can find parks that provide seasonal sites in the 2017 Good Sam RV Travel & Savings Guide, pages 1349-1354, or you can visit our website at http://www.goodsamclub.com/seasonal-sites/ as well.

    Thank you and happy travels!
