Parkview Lakes RV Park

This RV park is conveniently located close enough to the city to have an easy commute and far enough away that you are not in the daily buzz. There’s a ton of shade trees, a pool, laundry facilities and a pool table in the office. My favorite part is that is is located right next to the Coyote Valley Open Space. The rates are reasonable and the management do what they can to be attentive to your needs. I’d recommend it of you are just passing through or you are a lifestyle RV enthusiast on a shoe string budget.

This is a great little RV park located off 101. It has spaces for about forty RVs. The price varies depending on the season
While I’ve been here there have been some campers who didn’t keep their dogs on a leash. They were running around everywhere and one of them pooped near our site.
There is a pool and a horse shoe pit. I liked the fire pit in the evening.
The down side of this park is there is not much cellular signal and forget watching tv! I guess that’s not that bad cause who needs the news anyway, right?
The camp is just ok and that’s about that!

Not sure where the super negative reviews arise… outdated? Anyhow, the major positives would be the trees (shade!!!), landscaping, and super friendly hosts. I’d give this place five stars if I didn’t have to fight for the laundry room and the pool was heated. We stayed here a couple months while my husband was working in the area and we were pleased with our stay. We had friends at Coyote Park (expensive, nit-​picky management) and friends at Maple Leaf (crowded and generally trashy appearance) and we wouldn’t move to either.

Nice shade trees, but small spots (not enough room to park two vehicles by your spot). Birds will poop on your vehicle, and leaves often fall and collect on your cars and trailer, so if you’re staying long-​term, you might want to invest in a car cover. Poor internet service – it comes and it goes. When its up and running, it is great, but once a week or so it will be out and you have to call the office to reset it. There is no dog walk here. Only 4 washers and 6 dryers for all the residents – which is a pain when it comes laundry time and you wait around to wash your clothes. Going to a laundromat in town is probably best (unless you want to wait around for a washer and dryer). They are dog-​friendly (most parks restrict dogs to 20 lbs and under – this park does not) – dogs just must be on leashes. They do over-​water their grass here, which makes it a mosquito-​haven outside. Once a week, their staff will blow leaves (and in the process blow dirt all over your vehicle and trailer). There are a lot of older trailers (which doesn’t bother me), but there are also a lot of RVers that store their junk all around the sides and back of their trailer (like a storage unit). It can make the place look trashy. I mean, everything you would store in a storage unit they are storing outside. Another thing that irks me is the rules never seem to be enforced. People leave their poor dogs outside all day. I can understand letting them have fresh air and leaving them outside for a bit – but some of the residents kept their little dogs chained outside all day long. Not right! Also too many RVers park 2 cars side by side in the street, leaving little room for you to back out of your space or drive down the street. The park costs us $ 705 a month here, plus electric and they don’t give refunds if you leave the park early. I think $ 705 is a little steep for what you get – it is definitely not a resort atmosphere. The most appealing aspect is the pool and its trees. It is a headache getting in and out of the park (there is a highway divider that only lets you get into the park or out of the park going northbound on Monterey). To head southbound, you have to go up Monterey a ways and make a u-​turn (and do the same to pull into the park). It is a very cramped space – no private yard – people are constantly cutting through your spot to go anywhere (unless you are lucky to get a spot around the exterior of the park). There are a lot of non-​English speaking residents, who don’t seem to understand when you ask them to move their vehicle, etc. The manager Don is nice, but the ladies that work the front seem irritated to give you your mail (like they are put off that they have to give you your package or your letters – what an inconvenience)…They are closed at 4 p.m. now, which is hard to get your mail and pay rent. Their hours on Saturdays vary – they may or may not be open. They are also closed on Sundays.

Lived here for almost a year and the place absolutely sux. They lure you in with their cheap rates and friendly superficial first impression. But let me tell you, AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. Would give it 0 stars if possible. When we were there, at first there was no sewer, which was not a big deal, since they had a so called ‘honey wagon’ as they called it. When the pump broke as it frequently did, or they didn’t pump your tank out completely things sucked somewhat but there was still the bathrooms to use.
Then when they decided to supposedly remodel the bathrooms after kids kept t-​peeing them, all they did was changed the door knobs to thumb print readers so no one could use them except for the rude out-​of-​control manager’s. A few times our tank filled up before the next wagon visit and the manager’s told us we just had a clog. I said i could look directly in my tank (as i had an old school trailer) through my toilet and i knew my tank was full. They refused to empty me between the schedule, so my pregnant wife had to drive out of the park and down the street to use a public bathroom. This happened many times.
Half-​way through our stay there, they paid a company to put in an illegal septic system with several tanks. after a month or so of work, they got caught by the county for doing the work with no permits and the system never went operational. Also, when the trenching was going on, several of the fresh water lines got cut and thus the water in the park got contaminated, so we were told to boil our water.
We finally high tailed it out of there and in the process, because we didn’t pay the rent since the park didn’t meet its obligation required by law in regards to bathrooms and sewer facilities, the park management opened and stole our mail and identity. I called USPS which affirmed to me my suspicions about the mail theft because they had many more complaints about this place. The USPS manager said that the FBI was now involved and the people doing this (the managers who sorted the incoming mail) were going to be arrested for several felony counts of tampering and stealing mail and identities. Serves them right!
Avoid this place at all costs as the 3 other reviewers have stated!
