Cal Expo RV Park

Was here in November, so note that your experience may vary. Despite it being a "parking lot," it more than met our needs for a week, and with a fair price of $300 for the week. On the first night, they crammed us together despite half the park being empty, but as the week went on, the neighbors were more spaced out, and we had a little more room. Park was quiet and felt safe and secure despite the lack of amenities. Flooding was an issue after rain. Dog park was adequate. Staff was friendly. When making reservation over the phone, I thought it odd that they not only collect credit card but also your drivers license information. The possibility of them not securing this personal information with your credit card along with the cvc# could possibly lead to identity fraud in the future if this info gets into the wrong hands. I'm not sure why they would also need your drivers license when making a reservation. I've never been asked for that before. Otherwise, it was an overall pleasant stay. If you have bikes, then it's even better with direct access to the American River path.

CENTRALLY LOCATED, SACRAMENTO METRO AREA Big-rig friendly for getting around in the park, flat, graveled, (some paved sites), full hookups. No shade in the center (majority of spaces). Shade is on edges near fences. Check Google Maps if shade is important to you. This location is quiet for being surrounded by a busy and bustling business district. Food and shopping is very close. My Favorite: The people at the front desk. Funny, quick to laugh and professional. Thank you all!

DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU HAVE DOGS. Stayed at this RV park before. Let me start off by saying they only have one dog park. The rules are if someone is waiting then you limit yourself 15 minutes. The management over here take their dogs and just sit there for over an hour. Their dogs don’t like bigger dogs and you’re not allowed to walk your dogs elsewhere. As management, they should also be following the rules and they don’t. I have a big dog, a Great Dane and I couldn’t take him potty because management was there sitting with his dogs for over an hour. It’s either you wait at the gate til he leaves or let your dog have accidents inside. I couldn’t post this while I was there, but now that I’m gone, I can post it now. They need better management

This is probably your best bet in Sacramento. The park is very centrally located--only about 6 miles from downtown. I paid $50/night for full hookups. Hookups mostly worked well (one night there was a power outage, but I can't blame the RV park for that). Wifi is weak but mostly usable. Sites are flat. No real traffic noise. Friendly hosts. You're really not going to find much better unless you pay a lot more.

We had a good experience! Prices were very reasonable, true there were hardly any amenities but that’s not what we were there for. The park is right next to a bike trail, which was great and we utilized during our stay. The bathrooms/showers weren’t the nicest but they were useable.
