    Pool lounging by the pool. One drawback is that South Coast hwy is 50 steps away; there's a bit of noise-Really!

    It's a good vibe! The atmosphere, inside and outside the secure resort. It took nearly TWO years for us to get our Thousand Trails butts in this place & and it was well worth the wait. The staff is warm and welcoming; if you're a frequent visitor, they actually remember your face! I think that's a nice perk for paying consumers. There's no reason for finding the downside/dark side of this place there's not a lot. The Oceanside/Northern San Diego area is pretty sweet, makes this RV resort more appealing.

    Very nice and well maintained RV park with nice employees. We had our ups and downs being at this RV park. Even tho it was super clean and we felt very safe being at this park, the train ruined our sleep during our stay :( it would wake us up at 5:30am and it ran all the way until past 10:30pm, so as we tried to sleep before 9:30p we couldn't because of the train. My kids were so exhausted at the end of our stay. Maybe our space was too close to the train. I'm not sure if we will return.

    We stayed at one of the three tent campsites. It turns out the train runs right behind the fence of the campsites! And it blasts its horn as it's going past every 15 minutes from 4:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. which makes it impossible to sleep after 4:00 a.m., impossible to take a nap, and impossible to enjoy a conversation for more than 15 minutes. Although the rest of the facility was beautiful including the swimming pool, this really ruined our vacation and we are exhausted. I wish there had been an indication or warning of this on their website.

    Very nice pool!!

    This is a great RV park. This RV Park isn't the cheapest by far, but its location and property value, I get it. We've been going here for 4 years... it has improved greatly over the last 2.5 years (thereabouts). No more trashy sketchy looking RV'S or folks. I get it though, price of Property they had to step it up, and they did! Accommodated our 41', 5th Wheel, pull through, easy in and out! Picnic table, no fire pit though. Good security! Every employee is just the best, friendly, helpful, I never have to worry. We've made good "friends " here. Pool / Hot tub are great areas, clean... it's too bad some folks just don't/won't follow rules! No glass or food, peeps! Restrooms, laundry areas are exemplary! Game room is large, we don't use, but it's nice. We have checked out one across the street (down the street a block). I can't figure out why folks stay there. Either place is NOT on the beach, you still have to walk or drive. Anyway, it's pricey, but if you want to be close to the Beach, it's the place to go.... The ONLY complaint, (I'm not sure what they can do), but the dog park is just smelly, it looks clean and sanitized, but I can't handle the odor! I noticed most folks don't use it..... maybe they can look into ground products (??) Just wanted to mention train noise, the other R V Park is right on the tracks too.... I just use my sleep sounds to muffle it.... And as for the Cemetery, (up hill next door) it is a Historical site (or should be), all interred have been so mostly before the 1920''s , PLUS you can't see it! It's a non-issue! We have loved every stay here!

    This park is like all of the ones in the beach cities. They are just wide enough for the rig and a picnic table. However, this park has a fence partway between the sites. Most of the sites are concrete Pull-Thru spots. The campground is situated right on Pacific Coast Hwy and is near to everything, except a sandy beach. You can access a beach with just a short drive. The park has a nice but small pool and Jacuzzi. The staff maintains the park in a very clean condition. The Sprinter light rail train goes by frequently and blows their horn but it doesn't bother me. This is our second stay and we will definitely be returning. You can get packages delivered by UPS.

    Construction workers couldn't wait until 11am check out.

    I'm having a difficult time understanding why I keep being told by Gail Perry the office manager…read morethat the owner is the one that handles the rentals at this location and that although the website shows availability, there isn't any because the owner doesn't keep up with the website. THEN, a week later the website shows no availability at all and she says it's because the owner " must have" updated the website. She says when there's availability She'll let me know. I go in the website yesterday and it now shows AGAIN two available sites so I email Gail and her reply was there's still no availability. I am in the process of trying to contact someone hire up to possibly help me. I understand if there's no availability, but it seems as though someone is dropping the ball somewhere.

Sandy Shores was originally built as a 55 space trailer park across the street from what at the time was the existing 100 space Harbor View Trailer Coach Villa. In 1962, Sandy Shores Trailer Park was purchased by Oceanside native Harold Carpenter, who owned and operated the nearby Carpenters Towing and Auto Salvage business. After several years of construction, the Oceanside Harbor opened in 1963, adding another attraction along with a spectacular view for travelers staying in the park. By the late 1960s the Harbor View Trailer Coach Villa across the street closed down and the number of spaces in Sandy Shores was reduced to make way for bigger and more luxurious travel trailers. Today, Sandy Shores is still locally owned and operated by like minded people. It now consists of 40+ spaces, including some short term RV spaces (6 months or less), but the majority of the spaces are used as a coastal vacation spot for people who reside in Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. Many are second or third generation families who have been coming to Oceanside for years to enjoy the quaint atmosphere of the park and the nearby beaches, harbor and other attractions...

I was about disappointed in the state of the camper. The awning was in disrepair and required constant adjustment so we wouldn't rip it further. The interior was decent, everything you could need was provided: pots, dishes, soap, blankets, towels. The common area provided flush toilets and showers (coins need to be purchased via cc at the kiosk). But maintenance on the facilities would be greatly appreciated. The spot comes with 2 parking spaces and proximity to the beach isn't too bad. The center of the campsite has a shared pit and lawn games. Each site gets its own fire pit and gazebo/picnic table. There's enough room to add an additional tent for more guests. For the price, I would just go tent camping, but for those who don't feel like packing and setting up, this is a good alternative. The staff were a bit less friendly then last time as well. We were not allowed to set up a hammock like we have in the past.

I would highly recommend that Olive Street RV update their drone video to show the current status of the park. The beautiful looking resort-style is now occupied by permanent and long-term seasonal residents. The back in spot I reserved in February for 2 weeks at the price of $1350 is no longer available. We were assigned a narrow pull-through spot next to a nice trailer who has junk and trash laying around their campsite that was very unsightly. The other trailer next to us is definitely more than 10 years old. Most residents take pride in their sites and keep them clean. The best part of our spot is that there were no sewer hoses outside our door. We did feel safe and the residents did respect the quite hours. We did not use the laundry, the pool, or the WiFi. I would also suggest that Olive Street Trailer Park add their office hours to their website. California is extremely expensive and the economy is ridiculous. I am glad that people have found a nice, safe place to live. I just feel that Olive Street RV needs to reflect their business in an accurate way so that people know they are not going to a beautiful resort for their summer vacation. This are no pretty flowers or grass as residents use it for additional parking.

    This is an expensive KOA and the entrance makes you think you are coming into a beautiful resort…read more Then you drive in. And the scenery changes quickly. I am very unhappy with this resort. We booked the KOA online. Gave them the specs of our big rig- 42 feet with 5 slides. Check in- they put us in a back site- not an issue that does not accommodate 42 feet. We would have had to pull through both sites to have us fit. Site 143 is also extremely unlevel as is most of the sites in the Oaks area. And ALL DIRT! Not even decent dirt- just blowing sand. Every site is un-level! And in full sun- no shade trees unless you are in a premium site. So we went back up to the office- parked in front of the office to show them what 42 feet looks like- they reassigned us a new spot- again a back in and a corner lot. Again, very unlevel, all dirt and in blazing hot sun directly on the passenger side of the rig- no shade. The sewer pipe is a 3 inch hole- not the standard 4 inch as most other campgrounds are. You pay for the amenities since they have three pools. You surely are not paying for good campsites. They have other areas of the park with unlevel but somewhat decent sites but they assign you your spot. You don't get to pick. If i did not need to be close to Warner Springs with family, I WOULD NOT STAY HERE. The picnic table is wooden and warped so bad you cannot sit a drink on top. Total crap. The fire pit is large- there is a plus, but the grill is so rusted and nasty I would never use it. Walking around our site there is also trash from previous campers. So if check out is at 11 and check in is at 2- you pay staff to clean the sites. Again, I camp quite a bit. If i pay good money I expect a decent campground. If nothing else somewhat level. If i was on BLM land or dispersed camping that is a whole different ballgame but this is a KOA RESORT. Clean it up- fix the picnic table so families do not get splinters. There are just a bunch of kids working at the front and driving around on carts who do not know the campsites well enough to be knowledgable. We are staying here for 8 days- longer than just a weekend. They could have TRIED to place us in a more decent spot and not around the family camping crowd. I am not here with kids, I have a dog. Also, the dog park, is just dirt and leaves. They want you to scoop your poop but the poop bag holder is empty. So basically- you are paying for the pools. My advice unless you enjoying camping on just dirt and uneven RV sites- spend your money somewhere else. They have lots of grass and lush everywhere except where you want it to be. So save yourself time and money. Find a level spot with less amenities and pay way less. Especially if you are in a big rig of our size. Lastly, in the oaks area the cell reception is horrible- for T-Mobile. SOS or 1 bar of LTE. Wifi does work.

I lucked out and found a super close parking spot in the neighborhood across the street.

There was a pretty intense drop off about half way down the sand so it limited space for people to put down their stuff and lay out. I'm not sure how normal it is at this spot but there was a TON of rocks. It was way too much to be able to enter the water without having them beating your feet and ankles. My friend was bleeding after trying to check out the water. The surf was also a little intense that day so I'm wondering if that had any effect on the rock situation? This was a very clean beach with restrooms at the bottom of the ramp from the street so it did have that going for it but we decided to leave and head for a beach where we could safely go into the water that day. I'll have to come back another time to get a better idea.
