“Dirty, Jam Packed, Intrusive Hosts”

So expensive, so many rules, such small tightly packed sites. You are parked on dirt. Nothing scenic fun or lovely about this place at all. And I’m out $81.

You must drive around looking for a spot! Not easy when you are hauling a large travel trailer or a motorhome hauling a vehicle. Most spots are tight because of the palm trees. Corners hard to get around. It was difficult finding an available spot even though we prebooked with rv length and tip outs noted. If you are a bigger rig i would look elsewhere! Sure didn’t measure up to other 1000 trails i have seen.

Pros - Great location on I-10 provides easy access to the entire valley and all the stores and restaurants.
Delivery packages except USPS are delivered directly to your site.
Friendly Staff.
Cons - Noise, the I-10 traffic and nearby train are loud.
Goat head thorns are everywhere, they will get inside your rv and on your dogs paws.
RV sites are very close to each other.
Arriving and leaving sites with rv is difficult with many obstacles for big rigs.
Entrance is a 90 degree turn that TT will not round off for rv's turning right.
Latecomers will have difficulty finding a site that fits a large rv.
Landscaping - no landscaping other than the palm trees. Sand everywhere.
No place to walk other than park roads - the sand lot acreage next door has been permanently closed to access for people to walk their dogs and themselves. This was one of the nice things about this resort in the past for many years.

Perfect location and one of the nicest TT we’ve been too! It was very tight getting around the campground with our 41 ft fifth wheel, but it is manageable if you have a spotter. We stayed along the backside of the park on the 50 amp side and loved it! Sites were beautifully landscaped and paved. Pool and pickle ball courts are also really nice! Close to local attractions, 15-20 minutes to stage coach and Coachella music festival locations, and 1.5 hours to Joshua Tree National Park. Great tmobile, Verizon, and starlink service. Would stay again! Highly recommend!

Palm Springs RV Resort in Palm Desert, California. No nightly fee with our Thousand Trails membership. This turned out to be a pleasant two week stay for us after a rather stressful arrival. As is typical with TT parks, the sites are plenty big but the access roads tend to be too narrow. I would not call this park big rig friendly, but it can certainly be done. Sites are first come first served, no assignments. Location is super convenient to local attractions and amenities. There is some noise from Interstate 10 and and nearby train tracks, but we were in the middle of the park and it wasn’t much of an issue. Laundry room was clean, 1.75 each for washer and dryer. Pool was the perfect temperature and had plenty of lounge chairs. Lots of activities throughout the week. Staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. Would stay again.
Best: Lots of activities, friendly staff, great pool area.
Not so great: Tight access roads, lack of enforcement with dog rules.

Some parts of this park are great and some are not.
Pros:
- Really nice pool and hot tub
- Friendly staff
- Lots of activities
- It’s a pretty park
- The weather was warm
- Clean laundry rooms
Cons:
- The pretty palms make it very challenging to park! So expect at least an hour to find a spot and park.
- Theft of bikes and such seem to be an issue. At least 2 families that we know of had things stolen
- Dust/Sand/Wind
- Tight spots with the trees
- Very busy (can be a pro or a con)
- Dog park is very small
- Playground was closed and very small, not sure if they are updating it
Make sure you go slow and have someone spot your back end as you go around corners.

Pros:
* Great community of people, very social park.
* Nice pool area
* Good Cell Service
* Descent Wifi in the Pool area
* Very friendly staff
Cons:
* Dusty
* 50 amp service was tight. Glad we decided to go with a 30 amp pull through instead.
* Not very friendly area for riding your bicycle outside the park
* Some highway and Train Noise but you get used to it. Not bad while in the RV.

If you have a bajillion kids and want to spread their bikes into your neighbor's site and connect with other campers so that they can run in enormous packs all over the park, then this is the place for you. If if you don't like to pick up after your pet, you are in good company here. If these descriptions don't fit you, then may the odds forever be in your favor. The spa is large but the jets don't really work. There is no workout room. On the plus side, it is in Palm Springs so we left a lot. The pool is a nice size and heated. They staff does a good job at texting you each day to inform you of their activities.

noted 12/8/2020
the currently are NOT doing LP tank refills. 12-2020. not sure when that will restart.
The back in sites are to the right of the center when you check in and pull through to the left.
there are some sites closed #26 -#31 I believe due to palm that need to be removed with caution tape on them.. 12-2020
the further back in the park the better for reduced traffic noise,, the trains run the time but do not honk horns.. but you can hear then especially during the day and evening.
pickleball courts upfront get players most morning around 8:30 am any skill level welcome.
Costco close by with gas only,, no diesel or LP.
