With 200 spacious sites nestled beneath shady trees, guests are welcomed into a relaxing retreat.

Take a dip in the inviting pool, freshen up in the spotless showers, or gather in one of the well-appointed clubhouses. Need to refuel or grab a quick snack? The nearby Pechanga gas station and mini-mart have you covered.

With golf and casino action nearby, it’s easy to understand why this park, accessible from Interstate 15, enjoys a perfect 10/10*/10 Good Sam rating.

Just next door, golfers can tee off at Journey at Pechanga, a stunning par-72, links-style course surrounded by rolling hills and wine country views. After your round, kick back at Journey’s End Restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or a cold drink, then browse one of the largest golf pro shops in California.

Home Base with Heart

The resort caters to all kinds of RV travelers, from weekend wanderers to seasoned road warriors. Choose from Chairman sites with fire pits and gazebos, Buddy sites designed for two rigs traveling together, along with a variety of pull-through and back-in sites. Clean restrooms and 24-hour laundry, a fenced dog park for four-legged companions, Wi-Fi access, and an on-site cocktail lounge ensure your stay is as comfortable as it is convenient.

Savor the Flavors of Temecula

Just beyond the resort, Temecula Valley unfolds with charm, flavor, and fun. Take a sunrise ride in a hot air balloon, sip your way through more than 40 award-winning wineries, or indulge in a little retail therapy and small-town charm in Old Town Temecula. The region’s microclimate — sunny days, cool ocean breezes, and crisp nights — is perfect for producing vibrant, flavorful wines.

Looking for a few tasting room favorites? Several vintners offer gourmet seasonal dishes in a gorgeous vineyard setting, while others keep the vibe party five alive with weekend music. Visitors can even arrange for car tours of wine country, letting someone else do the driving while they sip fine vintages.

Lake Adventures and Scenic Escapes

Anglers will feel right at home at Vail Lake, a top spot for largemouth bass, or Diamond Valley Lake, where you can cast for rainbow trout, catfish, and panfish. Want to get on the water? Rent a boat and cruise to the lake’s west end, or cheer on competitors during the National Bass West Tournament.

Nature lovers can explore more than 100 miles of bike trails that snake through lush vineyards and expansive countryside. For breathtaking views, hike the easy trails at Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve, or go deeper into the Cleveland National Forest, where Tenaja Falls and Dripping Springs Trail offer spectacular vistas. Bird watchers should head to Lake Skinner Recreation Area, a peaceful haven for spotting owls, herons, and hawks.
