Campground Overview
About Thousand Trails Pio Pico
What sets Thousand Trails Pio Pico Campground apart is its dual character: a well-equipped RV resort offering diverse amenities and a tranquil base for exploring both southern California’s natural beauty and nearby attractions. Positioned in Jamul, just 24 minutes from San Diego, it defies the typical camping experience by blending modern comforts with easy access to rugged outdoor adventures.
The campground is divided into two sections: one with full hookups and close proximity to the pool and recreation areas, and another providing water and electric connections for a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere. Amenities include a swimming pool, mini-golf, sports courts, hiking trails, and an RC racetrack, creating abundant options for family-friendly activities. For those seeking more convenience, cabins and cottages are available, many featuring air conditioning, kitchenettes, and BBQ grills. Guests can also explore nearby attractions like Otay Lakes, Mountain Hawk Park, and the Otay Mountain Wilderness Area, all within a short drive.
Located on Otay Lakes Road, this campground is set against a backdrop of scenic mountains, offering a peaceful atmosphere while remaining a short drive from bustling San Diego. Whether you’re planning a quick getaway or an extended stay, Pio Pico provides a mix of solitude, recreation, and accessibility to cultural and natural landmarks.
