What guests say
The resort report card
We don’t recycle other sites’ reviews, but the published scores are worth reading together: guests praise the location and the walk to downtown, while noise from the port, freeway and trains is the most common complaint.

Before you book
Plan your stay
Everything that decides whether Golden Shore fits your rig, your dates and your budget, in one place.
Our take: the city-break pick near Anaheim: full hookups under palms, a heated pool and the Long Beach waterfront on foot or by bike. Expect port, freeway and train noise, tight site spacing, a 2-night minimum on weekends and strict refund rules.
