Our recent trip to Guajome Regional Park in Oceanside was a delightful two weeks for my wife and me, the perfect escape to relax and reconnect with nature. As full-time RVers, we're always searching for campgrounds that offer a balance of nature, amenities, and convenience. Guajome checked all the boxes, and proved to be a fantastic spot for us and our furry companions.
We landed site 21, spacious and well-maintained, with ample room to extend our awning and slideouts. Having full hookups (water, sewer, and electric) was a major plus for a longer stay. The campground itself was clean and quiet, with a peaceful atmosphere thanks to the surrounding trees. It's worth mentioning that things got lively during Memorial Day weekend, but the festive vibe was enjoyable. We even met some other RVer couples with dogs, and our pups had a blast playing together.
A word to the wise for fellow RVers who rely on Starlink: the abundant tree cover at Guajome can weaken the signal. If a strong and stable internet connection is crucial for you, consider contacting the park office beforehand to inquire about campsites with clearer skies. They might be able to recommend a location that better suits your needs. Luckily, even though Starlink wasn't ideal at our site, T-Mobile's 5G signal was excellent, so we weren't completely out of luck.
Beyond the campground, the park itself was a true treat for us dog-loving RVers. Over 4 miles of trails wind through diverse terrain, perfect for stretching your legs, getting fresh air, and giving your furry friend a chance to explore. We loved the variety of landscapes – rolling hills, serene ponds, and even glimpses of local wildlife. It felt like a nature escape right outside our RV door, with plenty of space for our dogs to sniff around (on leash, of course!).
As RVers, convenience is key, and Guajome delivered there too. The location was fantastic – close enough to Oceanside for restaurants and shops, but far enough away to feel like a true getaway. Plus, the on-site dump station was a major convenience. Even better, there are several chain grocery stores, like Vons, Albertsons, and Walmart, all within a 10-minute drive of the park. This made it easy to stock up on supplies and essentials without having to travel far.
