O'Neill Regional Park

We had a great time camping at O’Neil. You should really check out the available campsites before you book if possible. All of the sites are very different shapes, and the amount of room varies greatly. The only issue we had was the parks policy of two vehicles per site. Because we came from Texas and had a class C RV it was counted as one vehicle. But with our tow vehicle and my son‘s truck, one employee did not want to let us park the ‘ third vehicle’ there. The park Ranger cleared it up, but for the next few days, that employee gave me the cold shoulder as if I got him in trouble.🤷🏽‍♂️ The park may want to update their rules on number of vehicles at site or offer overnight satellite parking in the day use area Would definitely stay here again next time we are in Orange County Best firewood prices in the region ($5 a bundle)

Rangers were very friendly and helpful with finding my campsite even in the later hours of check-in. Bathrooms were very clean and functional, campgrounds are well capped and fairly level.

No bad camping spot here. All the camping spots are large. You're not on top of everyone even when they are full. Beautiful park. My dad and mom brought their camper out here while helping me heal from hip surgery. I have never RVed here, but here is some info I got from them as RVers: -There is a dump station. -Not all spots had water, but it was OK cause they filled up with water when they had to dump. -You can run your generator till 8pm -The showers are free but you have to keep pushing in a button throughout your shower The shower room further away from the front of the park had warmer water. - No washer and dryer but there is a great laundry mat far away. -Make your reservations 4 or 5 month ahead if you want to stay in the same spot. They had to dump so they really didn't mind moving around. -Dogs are welcome, but dogs aren't welcome on most trails. -They complemented how clean the park always stayed. -They felt safe with someone from the park always driving around to keep an eye on things. Orange county parks are really some of the best out there, a huge plus, the workers are all friendly and helpful.

A beautiful place to hike! It gets hot and there isn’t as much shade as I was hoping. There was a story to read along the way that was a lot of fun. Although dog friendly, I spent a lot of time taking off burrs and clingy plant parts. Overall a really nice trail with great views.

Fun place!! You see mule deer regularly, squirrels, rabbits, pileated woodpeckers, abundant wildlife. Nice BBQ areas, cheap day use prices. Camping prices are fantastic. A great little getaway in the mountains, calm, relaxing, quiet (most of the time) and an extremely well kept and clean park. Restrooms are always clean, and showers are available too with hot water. The only reason for 4 stars is it can get a little busy and noisy during the weekend with all the campers around.
