Golden Pines RV Resort and Campground - Arnold, CA

Unfortunately, our stay was overshadowed by Craig, the camp host’s behavior. Upon arrival, the host went over the campground rules in extreme and unnecessary detail, requiring us to read every rule in full and sign a form stating we understood them. Rather than feeling welcoming or informative, this process felt more like jailhouse rules than a campground orientation. It’s also important to note that this was off-season, and there was only one other camper in the entire campground. We spent most of our time inside our camper and were quiet and respectful, which made the excessive monitoring feel especially unnecessary. The campground itself has a large number of residential trailers, which gives it more of a trailer park feel than a camping experience. Combined with the host’s constant p

Stayed in the Bunkhouse for the 3rd time and it went as smoothly as the last couple times. The bunkhouse is clean and provides great shelter from the cold outside. They even updated their small heater since the last time we stayed and it works great and keeping the inside toasty. My son and I used the lower coin operated showers for the first time and they were very clean. Currently it looks like their are doing a lot of grounds maintenance and clearing but this was just something I noticed and not a negative in any way.

Cute hidden gem in Calaveras County! No frills but plenty of charm, animal and family friendly fun! They sell wood, have restrooms and showers. (Bring quarters for the clean, hot shower😃) Wildlife frequently comes through and is very exciting! The owners are the Best! They will treat you like family, highly recommend staying here.

Had a great time with family here. Perfect way to end summer. Craig was super friendly at check in and Ed was great at taking us to our spot and guiding us in. Larger RVs like ours (39’) are kind of limited but space 19 was perfect for us. No AT&T at all but Verizon and T-Mobile worked.

We were really impressed by Golden Pines. The park is beautiful, quiet, and very well maintained. You can tell the owners, and camp host Jeff, really take pride in creating a high quality RV experience. Our kids loved the pool and riding around camp on their bikes. It’s in amazing proximity to all the area has to offer. We cannot wait to go back!
