I had a decent experience at Pio Pico / San Diego. The location is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is conveniently close to shopping. The sites were adequately spacious, but we had issues since there were limited full hook-ups available. The Wi-Fi was quite poor, and the overall cleanliness could be improved, especially the dumpster area. Still, the quiet atmosphere made for a pleasant stay.

The facilities were okay, but the pool was across the street from our site, which was inconvenient, and the dusty roads were a bit of a nuisance.

Our stay at the campground was quite mixed. On the bright side, it's conveniently located near Coronado Island, making it great for beach outings. The staff were pleasant, and our family enjoyed the various activities. However, the campground showed signs of wear and tear with some facilities needing repairs. Additionally, we experienced noise issues that interrupted our peace during the night, and some aspects of management could use improvement.

I had a wonderful experience staying in a Getaway Cabin. The cabin was pristine, with no musty odors, and everything functioned perfectly. The staff was genuinely caring and helpful, making my stay really enjoyable. Unfortunately, the dining options were quite limited and could use improvement, but the overall value for money was good given the quality of the cabin. Also, I did face some issues with internet connection during my stay.

While the campground had some enjoyable features like large, clean sites and well-maintained pools, my overall experience was disappointing. The lack of amenities on the north side and the overcrowding made my stay less than ideal. Additionally, there seems to be inconsistency with park regulations regarding noise and pool usage, which added to my frustration during the visit.
