We stayed for several days before the Memorial weekend, so we experienced only one day of the…read moreactual busy portion of the holiday weekend. Good things: We thought the bathrooms and showers were very clean. The food at Moes was good as were the drinks. The store was well-stocked with toys, food, and clothing. The pool and jacuzzi were great, and the kids loved them. Kids' activities and games were plentiful, and they also enjoyed the playground. Staff was helpful in the office. Security was present and doing lots of rounds the first two nights (did not see them the busy Friday night). The camp was VERY, impressively, quiet at night. Middling things (mind you, the campground is not in control of these!): the sand is not soft sand like at the coastal beaches. Kids will probably need shoes for the shells and rocks, and it's packed super hard. The campground is under the flight path of John Wayne airport, so expect to know when it's 7 am each day since that's when the planes begin roaring overhead. Not-so-great things: the sites are super close together. Yes, you will be packed in like sardines, especially in the "standard" back row sites, which were completely filled when we visited. It is hard to back in when trucks are parked along the road, in front of the tiny sites- there is VERY little room for error. The sites are ALL DIRT, which I did not think would be so bad until I lived it. (Never again, unless I buy some turf at some point.) When campers dump their waste, expect to get some whiffs. (Many reviews note something about the angle of the dump/hose- we don't have a bathroom in our trailer so I can't attest to that issue.) Finally, the single biggest deal breaker for us was the allowed use of wood burning fire pits at sites. Since everyone is crammed in there, people burning wood on Friday night resulted in the paths and trailers and even the bathrooms being filled with smoke. They should only allow gas burning fire pits! So yeah- if we return it will only ever be mid week and preferably in the off-season.

Unfortunately, my experience at the market was extremely disappointing. I approached an employee…read morewith a simple question regarding holiday weekend events happening at the Dunes and was met with rude, dismissive, and unprofessional behavior. The employee appeared completely untrained, offered no helpful information, and acted inconvenienced by a basic customer inquiry. Customer service and professionalism matter, especially during busy holiday weekends when visitors are looking for guidance and support. I hope management takes customer experience more seriously moving forward and provides better staff training.

I informed him I was the driver and jokingly asked him to be patient with me trying to back it in. He offered to direct/guide me in backing my trailer in once at our site. My only wish is he could always be my guide. With his help, I backed it in perfectly within 2 minutes! The kids & I enjoyed the amenities: the pool, spa, shuffleboard, playground, clubhouse, exercise equipment, & also the paved roads for riding bikes & scooters. We also enjoyed seeing the fireworks from Disneyland. The location is close to Disneyland, the Honda Center, Angel Stadium, parks, & beaches. Each site was level & had a clean table, 4 chairs, & an umbrella - all much nicer than most campsites. There are numerous citrus trees and a small grass patch between each site. As we were trying to hook our trailer back up to head home, my sister & I were having a little difficulty getting the trailer hitched onto our truck. A kind employee (I did not get his name,) observed us & asked if we needed help. He was so kind to direct us in what we were doing wrong and even went a step further and suggested we use their air compressor before leaving to inflate our trailer tires. He went out of his way to make sure we were safe & we greatly appreciate that, especially since our kids were traveling with us. My teenager thinks these employees need a raise. Thanks for a great stay!

But, I can see what people are talking about the way they answer questions. This is a very spacious campground. We had a huge site for our 44' 5th wheel, dually, and a suburban. Bathrooms are old but clean. We didn't use them just looked. The little store is decent. The key card system is dated and you have to finesse it to work. 30 minutes to Disneyland as that's what we were there for. I feel $90 a night is reasonable. No wifi or cable but we have our own onboard. Verizon and T-Mobile was excellent. Will stay again. Hopefully for a week next time.

We were told to get there early before the Los Trancos parking lot is full. We got there on a Saturday around 10:30am and there was only one row in the back with open spots. We opted to take the short walk downhill to the beach rather than wait to take the shuttle. It was a nice walk and there's a cool tunnel along the way too. The visitor center and gift shop were very nice. Everyone working there was super friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell they love their jobs. The beautiful beach was busy but clean. There's a nice restaurant there with great Bloody Mary's and food. It does get busy on the weekends.

I read about The Holiday's on Trip Advisr and was pleased to find mid-week openings the next week. I paid for one night in advance, but after the fun my granddaughter had that first day, I paid for another night and am glad to have done so. The turquoise and white trailer, "The Drifter" is adorable, as are all four units. Andy, the owner/ manager is friendly, easy to reach by phone, and stops by each day to provide for the needs of his current renters, and to prep for the next to arrive. With an included fridge, freezer, 3 burner stove, plates, cups, mugs, utensils, bbq utensils, sink with running water, heat, ample sleeping for 4, bath towels, beach towels, USB ports, board games, cards, and a bluetooth sound system, the trailer offers plenty of convenience for its diminuative size. For a small extra charge a generator provides AC, microwave and electricity. Each trailer gas picnic table, charcoal bbq, and a firepit... though we joined other campers at the communal firepit and enjoyed making new friends. The Holiday's Community has a shared storage shed filled with complimentary games (Jenga, Cornhole, Horseshoes, oversized Checkers, Bocce Ball, etc.) beach supplies (umbrellas, boogie boards, noodles). The beach is gorgeous... there are two paths to access the beach, one is quite steep and the hike back up is tough. The other path nearest to the Visitor Center is less steep. All in all, big props to The Holiday's! I will definitely be returning.
