The resort report card
We don’t recycle other sites’ reviews, but the published scores line up: guests like the grounds, the pool and the friendly staff, and mark it down for I-15 noise, tight sites and metered electric.

Before you book
Plan your stay
Everything that decides whether Escondido RV Resort fits your rig, your dates and your budget, in one place.
Our take: a well-kept, friendly North County RV resort with full hookups, a heated pool and hot tub, a dog park and quick I-15 access to the Safari Park and Escondido’s breweries. Sites are back-in only and fairly tight, freeway noise carries, rates aren’t published and long stays pay metered electric, so call for your total and ask for a quieter site.
