Update on KQ Rancho

Update:

Went there this Friday after a disastrous detour due to construction on the roads and NO SIGNS indicating which road was which. However, thats just an aside.

We arrived at the campground and the gate check lady told us among other things that there was no cable, only sattelite in the clubhouse.

Then she told us that MOSTLY the snakes were gone because of the cold weather. Immediatley DW went into full PANIC MODE.

We had to drive to a parking lot which was supposed to be the only convenient LEVEL area with which to unhook our toad. It looked like a junkyard with the exception of a very new-looking class A.

But by that time it was too late: DW was not going to stay there, so we turned around and left. The gatekeeper lady was very courteous and also gave us accurate road directions back to Temecula.
  • I remember going there in the 80's, when it was "Great American Outdoor Adventure". Same high pressure sales pitch. I asked the guy about what would happen if there was a fire? Never happen he said. Didn't buy in, and am glad we didn't.

    Ever hear of the Cedar Fire in San Diego county? Burned right through KQ.
