Campland Information, Rules & Regulations

Our primary goal is to make Campland on the Bay a happy, safe and relaxed place to vacation.

Campland is responding to the Coronavirus.  View our business continuity plan and what we are doing to help keep our guests and employees safe and healthy.

Please note our site occupancy is limited to 6 people per site due to COVID-19 unless noted otherwise.  No visitors are allowed in the park during the pandemic.

The rules and regulations are for the benefit of all campers and guests. If a particular camper is unable or unwilling to comply with them, he or she will be asked to leave the park immediately.

Hospitality Rangers

Our Rangers are available to assist you 24 hours a day. If you need assistance, please feel free to stop a Ranger as they patrol, or call them at 858-581-4219, or pick up any House Phone located at the A, D, G, M, and N bathrooms.

Yes - Any arrivals after 10 p.m. are considered late arrivals.  Late arrivals must restrict noise as campers need their beauty sleep.

You may be allowed to do a basic hookup on your site. For some sites or rigs, you may not be allowed on the site until 8 am. We will provide alternate (no hookup) parking if available.

Yes - every night we have quiet hours from 11 P.M. to 8 A.M. Please turn off TVs and amplified sound, and lower voices to a whisper to allow your neighbors a good night’s rest.

Generators are not allowed; the only exception is in the "Dry I Section" between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM.

At Resort Management's discretion, music between 8 AM and 11 PM must be at a volume that does not disturb other guests. Music language must be clean and radio-friendly.

No - Campland is not allowing any visitors into the park during this COVID-19 pandemic.

If you have guests who want to visit during your stay with us, please plan to visit with them outside of Campland.

We are a camping resort so it does get dark after the sun goes down. For your safety, security, and comfort, please carry a flashlight after dark.  We recommend anyone under 18 years of age should return to their campsite by 10:00 PM, and all others by 11:00 PM.  We ask that everyone is considerate to neighbors and keeps noise levels way down.  Quiet hours are from 11:00 PM to 8 AM daily.

CARRY A FLASHLIGHT AFTER DARK!

PLEASE LOCK YOUR VALUABLES AT ALL TIMES.

We have a beautiful beach for all our campers to enjoy. During the pandemic, please physical distance from others and wear a mask when not with your family unit.  We recommend beach umbrellas to use for shade. We do have some rules such as no pets, glass, tents, or motorized vehicles on the beach.

Refueling is not allowed on the beach, and neither are gas containers. Canopies must be up against the curb only or one more row following the curb!

All Personal Canopies and personal property must be removed from the beach by 8:00 PM and not set up before 8:00 AM. Personal canopies and property left on the beach between 8PM and 8AM may be removed by Rangers. Campland is not responsible for the damage. The beach closes at 11 PM.

We do have watersports rentals to enjoy exploring the bay.

Campland requires that ALL VEHICLES & TRAILERS in the Resort have a valid Vehicle Pass. The number of vehicles permitted on a Campsite is two (2) (which includes the sleeping vehicle and a passenger vehicle), although there can be one (1) additional vehicle (beyond the two (2)), for a daily fee; except that the maximum in the Primitive Tent section is one (1) vehicle.  See our Registration office for additional passes.

All gas-powered vehicles other than golf carts must be street legal. All golf carts must be QUIET with no excessive smoke or exhaust and operated by a licensed driver. We ask that All gas-powered and electric golf carts must be shut down by 10 PM. We do have a quiet time.

All boat trailers must be parked either on your Campsite or in a designated area, with a valid Vehicle Pass. Please do not block or occupy any other site than the one you rented. If you have parking problems, contact a Hospitality Ranger or the Registration Office. Vehicles parked in unauthorized areas or blocking Sites will be towed at the vehicle owner’s expense or charged the daily rate for the illegally occupied Campsite.

ONLY ONE SLEEPING VEHICLE allowed per Lot. Example: only 1 RV/Motor Home, Trailer, 5th Wheel, Tent Trailer, Truck Camper, Van Conversion, or any vehicle designed for camping with beds. Campland requires the use of a sleeping vehicle or Tent. You may not sleep in a passenger vehicle or utility trailer or under the stars.

TRUCK CAMPERS & SHELLS must not be removed from their vehicles.

TRAILERS AND 5TH WHEELS MUST BE BACKED INTO A SITE. Hitches must face the street. In certain limited circumstances, Resort Management may approve a trailer (but not a 5th wheel) to be installed with the hitch facing the back of the Campsite, but only if the trailer is from an approved rental company that provides the dolly equipment needed for loading and unloading the trailer. Resort Management may have additional requirements as a condition of permitting hitches to face the back of the Campsite, or Resort Management may decline (in its discretion) to approve such request.

Sorry, the washing of vehicles and boats in the Resort is NOT permitted at your campsite, on any grass area, or on the pavement, with the exception of approved detailing and washing vendors in or at designated locations.

You may use the Marina boat wash area to RINSE your RV - NO SOAP, please. Campland is next door to an ecologically sensitive wildlife refuge (Kendall Frost Wildlife Preserve). Any soap rinsed here goes untreated right into the wildlife refuge and Mission Bay and is strictly prohibited.

Campland welcomes pets, dogs especially.  Please use the designated dog walk areas. Pet owners are responsible for their pets and must pick up after their pets in all areas of the Resort.

Vicious dogs are expressly prohibited. Except for guide dogs, signal dogs, and other service dogs as defined by Civil Code § 54.1, Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, Doberman Pinschers, Wolf Hybrids, Mastiffs, and other aggressive breeds are expressly prohibited. If you are unsure whether your dog falls within this prohibition, please call 858-581-4219 prior to your visit.

You must be able to control your pet at all times. Pets must be leashed at all times. Leashes must be no longer than 6 feet (including retractable leashes).  We do have Dog Wood Park, which is the only location where dogs may be taken off-leash at Camper's own risk.

Don't leave your pets unattended anywhere in the Resort, other than inside an RV (and then only if it does not cause a disturbance). Any pet left unattended (other than in an RV) may be impounded at the Camper’s sole expense. The maximum number of pets per Campsite for a Daily/Weekly Camper is three (3). For Extended Stay, the maximum number of pets allowed is two (2), however, in the Primitive Section, only one (1) pet is allowed. If a Camper’s pet causes a disturbance anywhere in Campland, the offending pet may be required to leave Campland.

Camper shall be responsible for their and their Guests’ pets and any injury or damage the pet(s) cause. The Resort is not responsible for injuries caused by pets or service animals in the Resort. Except for service animals under Civil Code § 54.1, pets are not allowed on the public beach. **

Thanks for asking.  Many of our sites offer sewer and water connections. Our lawyers want you to know that all fittings and connections must be WATERTIGHT and meet City and County of San Diego health codes and State law. Sewer connections must be by rigid piping with a sewer donut (or sewer ring) or a screw-type connector. All Campers and Guests are required to observe city health codes with reference to wastewater. All wastewater, which includes sewage and gray water, must be handled by watertight/airtight systems. Sewer hoses must not leak and must have watertight/airtight connections at both ends. Holding tanks, valves, and plumbing must not leak. Sewer water and gray water (including sink water) must never be dumped on the ground nor drained into buckets.

Dump stations are available, if needed (see below). No material (other than human waste and toilet tissue) shall be disposed of into the sewer system. Do not dispose of grease into the sewer system. All feminine products and other items should be disposed of separately. No rocks, dirt, or other objects should ever be inserted into the sewer system. No non-biodegradable toxic chemicals, such as formaldehyde may be used in RVs, such as to control odors.

Yes - campfires are permitted in fire rings and Resort Management approved portable fire pits only. We only allow one fire ring per Campsite. Please dispose of hot charcoal briquettes or ashes in fire rings or the Hot Coal Containers you can find throughout the campground. Do not use the trash containers for this purpose. Do not stack fire rings or remove them from other Campsites.

Please warn your Guests about the dangers of playing on or around the fire rings. Stacking of pallets for bonfires is prohibited. The flames may not exceed 12 inches above the fire rings. No fire rings on grass or asphalt. NEVER LEAVE A FIRE UNATTENDED! The Resort is not responsible for any injuries caused by Camper or Camper’s Guest’s use of Fire Rings or Fire Pits. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Fire Extinguishers are located throughout the Resort, as noted on the Resort Map in the Resort Services Directory.

Yes, we have wildlife. We border the Kendall Frost Wildlife Preserve. Wildlife is protected in California and at Campland.  The animals may be admired, but not handled or fed. It is a felony to harm, harass, or disturb wildlife and is subject to a $20,000 fine and/or imprisonment. (SEC. 597 CA STATE PENAL CODE). DO NOT FEED THE DUCKS, STRAY CATS, OR WILDLIFE.

Also, please drive carefully and yield to wildlife. Campland is not responsible for injuries due to encounters with wildlife.

Being on the property, including the common areas in and around the resort may expose Campers and Guests to chemicals, which include, but are not limited to, tobacco, smoke, lead and lead components, asbestos, carbon monoxide, and gasoline components, all of which chemicals are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and/or reproductive toxicity and for which warnings are now required.

CAMPLAND ON THE BAY® RV STANDARDS AND CAMPSITE CONDUCT POLICIES

Here's what our lawyers want you to know. Rules and Regulations and Policies are subject to change at any time.

RVs. All incoming RVs must be less than 10 years old and must be pre-approved by Campland Management. No Park Models/Park Trailers/Tiny Homes are allowed.

Utility Connections. It is Camper’s responsibility to check to determine that Camper’s RV is compatible with the Resort’s utilities and pedestals for gas, electricity, water and sewer.

For Extended Stay Campers (more than 30 consecutive days): maximum of 4 people.

Accessory Equipment and Structures. Storage sheds, large storage bins and electrical appliances, such as but not limited to, refrigerators and box freezers, are not permitted outside the RV, although a small cube fridge is permitted.

Standards for Incoming RVs. The following are the applicable standards for specific equipment and systems (and their installation) for all RVs (including repairs and replacements):

  • Electrical Appliances. Due to the potential for overloading of the Resort’s electrical system, the installation/use of electric heat pumps and other major appliances must be approved by Resort Management prior to installation/use. Resort Management may require removal of any appliances (including, but not limited to, air conditioning units) that, in Resort Management’s reasonable discretion, adversely affect the utility systems of the Resort. No water softener which discharges into the Resort’s sewer system is permitted.
  • Sewer System. Due to the limited capacity of the Resort’s sewer system, Camper must receive prior approval before installing any washing machine, garbage disposal, or dishwasher. To ensure acceptable loads to the Resort’s sewer system, Camper’s application for approval for these appliances may be denied.
  • Air Conditioners. Because the capacity of the Resort’s electrical system can be adversely affected, no additional air conditioners may be installed at the Resort without prior approval of Resort Management. Evaporative (swamp) coolers are not permitted on RVs.
  • Porches and Patios. Only outdoor patio furniture may be used on the patio, porch, yard, or other portions of the space. Indoor furniture sofas, chairs, tables, pillows, and blankets are prohibited to be placed outside.
  • Sunshades, Windscreens, and Privacy Screens. Roll-up, aluminum windscreens or privacy enclosures are permitted on Camper’s Campsite with the prior written approval of Resort Management if otherwise allowed by California Code of Regulations, Title 25; however, temporary, roll-up type sunshades (such as plastic, canvas, cloth, bamboo or matchstick blinds) are not allowed.
  • Window Treatments. All windows must have genuine window coverings such as draperies, curtains, blinds, or other aesthetically pleasing window coverings, and they must be maintained in good condition and repair at all times. No aluminum foil, sheets, blankets, plywood, paneling, newspaper, shopping bags, paper material, paint, or other material not designed as a window covering, shade or screen may be used as insulation on windows or as window coverings in any location in or on the RV. No awnings, shades, screens blinds, or other similar items shall be located outside the RV without management’s advance written approval.

  • Portable tanks. Propane, water, and air tanks must meet the current USA federal standards
  • Antennas and Satellite Dishes. Campers must abide by the following standards regarding the installation of any exterior satellite dish or antenna (collectively “Reception Device”) on Camper’s RV. No Reception Device may be installed on the Campsite, other than on the RV:
    • In order to maintain an attractive Resort, Campers are strongly urged to rely on only indoor broadcast devices like cable T.V., internet, and/or fiber optics, as opposed to installing an outdoor reception device. Cable television service is available through the local service provider.
    • Only satellite dishes with a diameter or diagonal measurement of one meter (approximately thirty-nine inches (39”)) or less will be permitted on the RV. For safety reasons, Reception Devices and masts may only extend beyond the  RV  as is required to receive acceptable quality signals. Television antennas may not extend more than three feet (3’) above the highest point on the RV without Resort Management’s prior approval, The Reception Device must be located to the rear of the RV, unless such location interferes with the quality of reception.
    • Any Reception Device shall be properly installed and secured in a manner that complies with all applicable codes, state and local laws and regulations, and manufacturer instructions and so that it does not jeopardize the safety of any neighboring Campsite or property or any person near the Reception Device. In addition, no Reception Device may be installed or placed in such a way as to obstruct a driver’s view of any street, driveway, sidewalk or intersection or to encroach on another Campsite.
    • Camper shall be solely responsible for the maintenance and repair, including any and all associated costs, of any installed Reception Device and shall not allow any such Reception Device to fall into disrepair or to become a safety hazard.
    • Every Reception Device must be painted an appropriate color to match the surrounding environment and so it is least visible. Campers are responsible for the maintenance and repair of each Reception Device and shall not allow any such Reception Devices to fall into disrepair or to become a safety hazard. Residents are solely responsible for all costs associated with any Reception Device. If a Reception Device installation poses a severe safety risk, then the Park may seek injunctive relief to prohibit the installation or to seek the removal of the Reception Device or other appropriate relief.
    • Other than for television, all other antennas (including, but not limited to, ham radio and CB antennas) are not permitted in the Resort.
  • Spas. No spa pool may be installed on the Campsite.

Special Standards. In order to maintain the aesthetic beauty of the Resort, Resort Management retains the right to impose additional standards on those Campers who have corner Campsites or Campsites in unique locations.

  • No Work On RV’s. If work is required on a Camper’s RV, then it must be removed from the Resort for repair. No work may be done on any RV in the Resort (excluding work performed by Resort Management).
  • Sale of RV. Campers may not post signs on the RV advertising the RV for sale. The Resort will require the removal of an RV from Campland in the event of the sale of its sale to a third party.

Extended Stays must be approved by Resort Management. Current proof of RV registration and insurance are mandatory for Extended Stays; please bring them with you for registration.

All Campers must move out for at least 24 hours every 90 days (or 30 days in the summer). No stay may be for nine months or more, even non- consecutively, in any given calendar year.

Yes - Dump stations are located at the “A” and “F” section restrooms for your convenience. Please, no dumping after 9 PM. No hazardous substances may be dumped into the dump stations. Campers may not store hazardous substances on the Campsite, except those customarily used for normal household purposes (and then only in quantities reasonably necessary for normal household purposes) which shall be properly stored within the RV or another vehicle (not in Tents). At no time shall any hazardous or toxic materials be spilled, released or discharged at the Resort, other than in compliance with all applicable laws. Any damage caused to the Resort’s dump stations or to the environment due to Camper’s or Guest's actions, including dumping hazardous substances, will be Camper’s sole responsibility.

Yes - Campland's lost and found is located in the Ranger Booth by the resort entrance. Lost and Found hours are 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.  If you find something lost, please bring it to the ranger booth.

Unlike hotels, Campland provides our guests the opportunity to reserve specific sites. If the site you wanted (but were unable to reserve) appears vacant, it may be paid for but not yet occupied.

Please do not park on or occupy any site that is not registered to you.

Yes - we do offer free wi-fi. Camper use of the wi-fi is conditioned upon Camper and Guests agreeing to and abiding by the WIFI Terms & Conditions of Use when logging in to the wi-fi.

We highly recommend that unattended bicycles should be locked at all times. Coolers, refrigerators, etc, containing alcoholic beverages should be supervised by an adult or locked. Be smart and protect your valuables. Lock unattended camping equipment in your vehicle whenever possible.

CAMPLAND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR PROPERTY!

Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, all our recreational activities are postponed.  We must follow state, local, and CDC guidelines.

Normally, our Recreation Department takes great pride in organizing a variety of fun activities year-round that you and your family can participate in during your stay. As always we will keep you busy with games and competitions during the day with a full 7-day-a-week schedule. Parties, music, and entertainers will keep your evenings hopping, and we mean that literally!

See the MONTHLY RECREATION CALENDAR, the Registration Desk, or on the restroom buildings for the days and times of events. Because San Diego's fall/winter months are some of the most beautiful camping weather available anywhere in the world, our events go on all year! Check the event section of our website at www.campland.com. Activities are subject to change without notice.

Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, our horseshoes and ping pong tables are not available for use.  We must follow state, local, and CDC guidelines.
