"Good location. Rooms were very clean, friendly staff . The best part is that there are 5-6 restaurants attached to the property , just exit out of the pool area and you can reenter with your room key. Good Beer, food, and ice cream ."

Avila Pismo RV Resort and Campground

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property, friendly check-in staff. Great location right near the Bob Jones trailhead. My only notes are that the cabin i stayed in is a bit rundown - the mattress could be replaced, the bedside light had no outlet, so was just ornamental, and the tv in the bedroom didn’t work. Other than that, great stay!"
