We had a/nd bdrm with a queen bed and the twins & I slept in this bed and then the couch pulled out for a bed and two slept there but it's big enough for 3 kids. We brought sleeping bags, didn't need them. 2 TVs living area and queen rm. The fridge could be bigger but it did its job. Overall, it was perfect for us, and I would highly recommend. Also 2 A/Cs, we left the bdrm one on during the day while we were gone to keep the cabin cool, so we weren't overwhelmed when we returned after a day out. You're 30 mins away from everything in SD.

IS THIS A CAMPGROUND OR CAMP RESIDENCY Interesting indeed…read more My stay at Pio Pico Thousand Trails campground offered a versatile accommodation experience, catering to a broad range of preferences and lifestyles. It's like blending in all options in one community. It features permanent housing for  RV, mobile homes, and tiny homes. While also offering 2-7 day stay for homes on wheels rentals, tenting and cabins. And at the same time adding the membership cabin pass option. All surrounded by tall mountains and the rhythmic calming hum of the flowing creek through the campground. WHAT WHERE YOUR ACCOMMODATIONS? I rented a 6 person cabin for a party of four. TBH, six could sleep comfortably but not hang out in the cabin all day comfortably. I was particularly impressed with the cabin; it was fantastic with a well-stocked kitchen full of dishes, pots, and pans, toaster,  blender, toiletries, linens, etc.  The highlight, surprisingly, was the abundance of electrical outlets - a rare find in such settings. All electronic appliances and ceiling fans worked without a hitch ensuring comfort throughout the cabin. The layout of the cabin was thought-out. Many windows for cross ventilation that actually worked.  Essentially, utilizing and maximizing a small space with warmth comfort.  WHAT WERE SOME OF THE CAMPGROUND FEATURES? It rained my time here so I understood how I could get stuck with flooding and not able to move my low clearance car. But I prevailed. And experienced the rare opportunity of the flowing creek from the mountains. The campground features two pools and two jacuzzis, a garden, billiards & horse game adding a touch of activities to the agenda. The facilities were clean and well-maintained.  Also noted the individual tent spaces were spacious. The cabins have adequate space for two cars, outdoor canopy and tent. DESCRIBE THE CUSTOMER SERVICE The staff was friendly.  However, a word of caution: the campground ranger is quite hyper-vigilant, bordering on intrusive. While it's clear she means well, her approach can feel more hovering than helpful at times. I would have preferred the same vigilance with pet owners eliminating in non-designated areas. Like near the restrooms that are people populated and unleashed pets. WHAT'S YOUR OVERALL IMPRESSION? Overall, Thousand Trails is an acceptable choice for those looking for solo or families to have a comfortable and equipped place to stay. All cabins are not disability accessible. Although the aesthetic aspect may not be its strong suit, withnumerous mobile homes and permanent RV distractions, I also used my time for indoor writing, sleeping, and woo-sahing.  I would add that guests respected the noise levels and each other's spaces.  Given the plethora of choices in southern California, Pio Pico may not necessarily be an automatic  choice. HIGHLIGHTS THAT TRAVELERS WOULD APPRECIATE  *At&T cell service worked throughout the campgrounds, I did not pay for Wi-Fi. *Parking is free but guess parking is limited and may require a walk if you're at the back of the campground. *Pool, jacuzzi and trash areas were clean and maintained. *Eateries, grocery, Target etc. are 15 minutes drive. *Have trek poles and headlamps when walking at night. *The mountains are majestic *No fire campground - please respect this  "Camping is a chance to live with nature and learn valuable life lessons from her wisdom."    - Paul Kortepete #juken123  #thousandtrails #sandiegocampgrounds #piopico #cabinpass #hikehealth #camphealth #campjamulca #campca

Good for you guys not letting the people with the pitt bull in !!…read moreI was thinking of buying a home in the but told Sara, who is selling it that I am afraid of moving to El Cajon because pitt bulls are everywhere out there.

If they are so great why do you need insurance for them ?? Why are they outlawed in Denver, France and other places ?? The fact is : They are an aggressive breed ! So are German Shepards- they are the worst. That's why there are under 20 lb limits to keep them out so we all feel safe. Thank you Shady Lane.

Very convenient for families with littles. Does get cold at night since it's not insulated. If you come in a large group, I would recommend booking the stagecoaches which is across the road from the miners shack because they have their own shaded picnic tables and access to the outdoor stage. Stagecoach are also equipped with 7 bunk beds, does rock when someone gets on/off the beds. Lots of activities for additional charge.. during the day, zip lining, bmx course archery, laser tag, paintball and pool. There's also free activities like the huge playground, hiking trails and petting zoo (we dropped by the nearby groceries store and brought up a 10lb bag of carrots to feed the animals) Meals were served 3x a day, with a nice variety of options, no one complained about being hungry. The general store does have additional snacks like ice cream and icy for a minimal charge.
