Golden Shore RV Resort

This is a small, busy urban park. Sites level packed dirt. Wide enough but kind of short for a bigger rig. Efficient, economical laundry and clean pool area. Can store bikes in office if you want.

Sites level packed dirt. Wide enough but kind of short for a bigger rig. Efficient, economical laundry and clean pool area. Can store bikes in office if you want. Road noise constant and loud, even at night. A good hour to Hollywood, downtown LA, Pasadena, Santa Monica. Much longer if you attempt the drive during rush hour. Easy walk to the harbor and aquarium and you can bike along a paved trail for miles down the beach. Grocery a mile or so away. WiFi ok but not good enough to stream. Lots of OTA channels.

15 minute walk to downtown Long Beach, 5 minutes to the ferry to Catalina. Clean, neat park, nice landscaping and sites. Sites are mostly hard packed decomposed granite, sort-of. Sounds dirty but it's not. Pretty level and clean. You'll hear city noises all the time. Gate guarded, need a code to get in, 24 hours a day.

Sites are mostly hard packed decomposed granite, sort-of. Sounds dirty but it's not. Pretty level and clean. You'll hear city noises all the time. Gate guarded, need a code to get in, 24 hours a day. But this part of Long Beach is nice. Pool and laundry look good, all machines working. Wow $1 wash and $0.50 dry! Good AT&T 5G service.

Love this place, there is always staff cleaning the area. The other guests were quiet and respectful. Our RV in spot 4 was up against the freeway exit ramp but the ramp was up high so it was quiet in our spot. The park is gated so it felt safe.

Our RV in spot 4 was up against the freeway exit ramp but the ramp was up high so it was quiet in our spot. The park is gated so it felt safe. There are many nearby attractions including a park / parking lot that was empty so easy for kids to bike and scooter. It’s just a 10 minute walk to the Catalina Express boat. 20 minute walk to the aquarium and park with views of the Queen Mary. Lots of restaurants and shops around the harbor as well as boat tours The beach is a short drive. This would also make a great base camp for exploring LA, Santa Monica, Disney Land if you have a car.The only down side is that in the morning there was a petroleum smell from a refinery across the river but that usually went away during the day.

Needed a place to stay with everything filling up so far in advance, and this was all that was left. Nice to be near the beach, but my spot was near the entrance ramp so lots of traffic noise. Didn’t have 24/7 bathrooms. Also needed to have a letter mailed to me, since my car registration tag was expired.

Nice to be near the beach, but my spot was near the entrance ramp so lots of traffic noise. Didn’t have 24/7 bathrooms. Also needed to have a letter mailed to me, since my car registration tag was expired. They wouldn’t allow me to have the one piece of mail sent there. That’s just a bit annoying to me because how hard is it to just take a letter, set it to the side, and I’ll come grab it from them. It’s the little things that make the difference to me and I don’t understand why some places don’t go out of their way to make RV life a bit easier for us full-timers.

Best thing is the location on the Long Beach waterfront. The RV park itself does not have waterfront access, but lies on bike/ ped paths that will take you to sandy beaches and a wide variety of restaurants bars and shops in minutes. Easy walk to downtown, minutes from Queen Mary and other attractions. Clean, well-run and secure. Some ...moreBest thing is the location on the Long Beach waterfront. The RV park itself does not have waterfront access, but lies on bike/ ped paths that will take you to sandy beaches and a wide variety of restaurants bars and shops in minutes. Easy walk to downtown, minutes from Queen Mary and other attractions. Clean, well-run and secure. Some minor traffic noise and light pollution, but after all you are centrally located in a big city.

Well maintained sites. Staff are friendly and helpful. The only downside if I have to nitpick would be that I wish the spaces between sites were a bit wider. Great view of the shoreline and nice sunset hike to see queen mary, skyline and birds. Would definitely visit again and highly recommended.

I've made a video review: https://youtu.be/mN9_L-mth5E It isn't very easy to get a campground in LA, CA. There are not so many campgrounds, they are expensive, and they are often full.

There are not so many campgrounds, they are expensive, and they are often full. We managed to book Golden Beach RV Resort in Long Beach. We wanted it to be close to the beach, also a close proximity to town and infrastructure, and also close to metro lines. Golden Shore RV Resort answered all our needs. Also, despite of the fact it's close to a semi-busy road, it's quiet here. Shoreline village is just a 15 min walk.In my review I'm showing every corner of the campground and provide every useful information I could think of. Feel free to ask questions in the comment, will do my best to answer all of them. And yes, the washing machines don't rinse the clothes properly, that's the only drawback.

If you need to stay in or near Long Beach this is about your only option. A bit pricey. Right next to a freeway exit with several campsites butted up to the fence of the freeway exit.

Right next to a freeway exit with several campsites butted up to the fence of the freeway exit. Lots of freeway and truck noise. The sites in the center of the park are a bit quieter and spacious. We have never camped in a park with so many rude campers. Adults & kids walking right through your site even while you are sitting right there. Lots of kids riding their bikes through your site. There is also a high rate of crime in the area and management warns you about locking everything. Long Beach has a high transient/homeless population living right near the park.

The price seems high but in our experience is in line with or better than similar "urban" RV parks. Our site near the entrance was just barely long enough for our 41-foot motorhome; we had to park our tow car diagonally in front, sticking into the road a bit. Dogs are not permitted to relieve themselves anywhere inside the RV Park except for the small dog area, but our site was right inside the park entrance, so we were able to walk our Lab outside the park quite easily. There's a paved path outside the RV Park that leads along the coast to a popular public park (less than a mile walk) so we walked there every day. We did have some occasional loud noise from motorbikes using the bike path (which was right behind our rig). We'd return here next time we want to visit Long Beach.

We stayed at Golden Shore for two weeks while visiting my family in SoCal. It's a small RV park, and the spots are a little tight, but the location is great and the place is clean.

It's a small RV park, and the spots are a little tight, but the location is great and the place is clean. They have a bunch of amenities that we didn't take advantage of, like the pool (although I saw people in it all the time) laundry, etc. This place is gated and was extremely easy to get to - it has its own clearly marked exit off the freeway.There's a small-ish dog run that's a little out of the way and no one seemed to be comfortable sharing the space when someone was in it.Definitely not a quiet RV park, or at least not when we stayed in June - lots of music, bbqs, stuff like that - but it was a nice change of pace for us. Lots of good opportunities to meet your neighbors here.The only downside other than the tight spaces is the smell - our big rear window looked out on the back bay and the smell was pretty gross when the wind swept through the trailer. I thought I was smelling propane all the time.

We were looking forward to our one week stay at this 5-star RV site, but we have only had issues since arrival. We don’t expect perfection, but staff has not handled the issues well.

We don’t expect perfection, but staff has not handled the issues well. On the first night, we had a complete infestation of ants. The guy working at the front desk was unhelpful (as he was the day before when we checked in). He told us that it’s a common issue in that location, and that there were no other sites open to move to. It took raising the issue with managment for them to find a new site for us. The new site appears better, but has a broken water spigot. Since our day was shot moving our trailer and running to Home Depot to buy ant spray, I decided to do some laundry. Unfortunately, the washing machine had some oil or grease in it and ruined our trailer custom fitted sheets, factory comforter and kids stuffed animals. The maintenance guy, Mario, was pleasant, but indicated that he didn’t have time to clean the washing machines because he was too busy with not enough help. I went to the front desk to show pictures and the same unhelpful guy suggested that my sheets likely had grease on them before putting them in the washer. I wasn’t going to waste more of my time dealing with him, so I’ll be raising the issue with the manager or owner as it’s likley that the sheets and comforter will need to be replaced (over $500). For context, we’ve spent the last 5 months on the road and have had our fair share of expected issue, but in every case the staff handled adversity appropriately. Never have we left a negative review. Sorry to burst the 5-star bubble, but eventually the poor staff attitude and lack of maintenance will catchup with this place.

We stayed here while attending a conference at the convention center. It's about a 20 minute walk. It's a beautiful park and the road noise wasn't much of an issue. No complaints.

The location of this park in Long Beach is probably it's best feature - it's incredibly close to downtown, the port, the Catalina Island ferry, and the highway, if you want to head up to LA proper.

The downside of that is that you have highway and port traffic noise pretty much non-stop. There were also regular low fly-overs by what sounded like military helicopters, ships honking their horns, etc. It didn't bother us, but it's definitely something to be aware of if you're a sensitive sleeper.Otherwise, the park itself is very well manicured: green grass, tall palm trees, clean pool and spa, dog park with seating and shade, and really clean showers. There's a laundry room and the office stocks a small but practical selection of goods for sale. The sites themselves are dirt pads, pretty close together, but they have managed to put in dividing bushes and enough room for a picnic table at each site. Pretty reasonable, considering it's an urban campground.The management were bizarrely strict about their extra parking spaces, with very sternly-worded signs posted at each one demanding a permit or else you'd be towed. One of the days we were there, we needed a permit and were granted one for a few hours (!) and were subsequently issued a "ticket" for occupying the parking spot for an extra hour past our permit's allowance. These parking spots averaged maybe 30% occupancy over the two weeks that we were there, so I'm not sure why they are so uptight about them.

It's location in the heart of a bustling downtown, yet walking distance from the beach made this Cali RV park pretty special.

We also loved its amenities that were really well maintained and the added safety that the gate offered made us want to stay another week. The park is rather small, but we enjoyed lounging at the pool, walking to the marina during sunset, and the combination of city and beach views that this area had. Rosies dog beach was another benefit for our family since most beaches aren't pet-friendly. Golden shore claims to be "pet-friendly" however, dogs are really only allowed in the small dog run. There are MANY signs that say dogs are not allowed on the landscaping all around the park, making it a little different to take your fur babies out to potty. Next time we may request a spot closer to the dog run. But everything else was great - spacious spots, quiet neighbors, fun pool and spa area, clean bathrooms and showers, CHEAP laundry machines!

The sites in the center ring are most definitely the ones to request, because there's a big central lawn where you can set up your chairs (and flamingoes) and enjoy the balmy summer evenings. The place is very clean and well-kept, and office staff are friendly. We were upgraded to a better site when we arrived, without even asking. Sites (mostly packed sand and raked every day) are pretty close together, but not so tight that you feel like you're in your neighbor's kitchen. Front gate security is good for an inner-city site. We didn't use the pool or restrooms, but they look very well-kept. Road noise abates late at night, and doesn't start up again until mid-morning. Dog area is tiny, but you can just step out the main gate and there's a miles-long bike/ped path that goes along the waterfront, with lots to see (and smell). It's conveniently located to many tourist attractions (Queen Mary, aquarium, etc.) and there are several restaurants within a 15-20-minute walk. Good cell service with our booster, though it was only 2 bars without.

I had to come to LA for last minute business meetings and needed somewhere clean and comfortable with access to the city of LA. This park is weirdly situated amongst office towers, refineries, and cargo ships, but surprisingly, it works! The access in is terrific, good signage to find it, and wide roads in the park for parking rigs. It's secure and safe feeling. Lots of grassy areas, lovely landscaping, great facilities all around. super clean! I have an excellent Verizon signal. Lots of monthlies at this time of year, and even though I arrived with an hours notice, I got a spot for two weeks, albeit with a couple shuffles. 80 spots so small enough to meet other folks who are all friendly. No age restrictions on trailers which is nice. I hate elitism! Signage everywhere saying " no dogs on grass" which everyone seems to ignore. A 15 by 12 dog area that's clean and has shaded areas. The staff is okay. Not particularly interested but not bitchy either, so I can live with that. Next to a great shoreline bike path, that passes by heaps of restaurants and shops. A bit far for walking to however. Groceries, Target, Home Depots within 15 minute drive.

We absolutely loved our stay here - the proximity to friends and things to do in Long Beach and LA was perfect, yet it felt tucked away even in a large city.

We made generous use of the pool and even had friends over for a party poolside. The showers were the cleanest RV park showers we'd ever seen, and we could wash and dry a load of laundry for $1.50 and the clothes were actually dry. We left here well rested and with clean clothes and sheets! I would definitely stay here if you need to be close to LA and want amenities, full hookups, and a clean park - we paid $45 the night prior to arriving at Lou Carillo in Malibu and had no hookups, the "campsite" was a pull off that was too small for our rig, and the ground was covered in litter. $10 more and we had pure luxury. No comparison!

They have nice facility and kept really clean. They're booked up solid and hard to get a spot. They seem to play favorites so if you're staying longer than 1-2 days expect to be bumped around. The maintenance people are awesome the office staff are ok to horrible.Given it's location, cost, cleanliness I'd give it 4 stars. WiFi suck...moreThey have nice facility and kept really clean.
