Stayed one night, Oct 12th. Beautiful views, shower warm water but ok. Only ones here. Weather was beautiful! Seniors only $8. Almost no smell from sea. Non-potable water. Lots of flies.
We love the Salton Sea. We'd rather have our RV here at the primitive campsites than hooked up to sewer and electricity. The sunrises and sunsets are indescribable. The birds are wonderous.
It was a gem in the dessert. Stayed at Covina campground for $10/night. Other campgrounds are $20/n. Park rangers checked on us 3 times to make sure we were ok. Plenty of water in the site. No sand at the beach but crushed shells so wear shoes. Soft soil as you get closer to the water so I couldn't touch the beach water, I got scared. Beautiful sunset but the air smells fishy. Don't go during summer unless you have a/c.
Beautiful camping right next to the Salton Sea. Super clean bathrooms and shower facilities. The train goes by on a semi frequent basis but wasn’t an issue at night. No smell for us thankfully. At $10 a night, it’s an exceptional deal.
The campground has beautiful views, nice showers and toilets. I pulled up to a campsite to get a feel for it, to see if I wanted to stay. I felt that for me the road and train was too close, and in the five minutes I was there, I had four cars pull up and park practically in my camp spot. I think it's because the sites aren't well defined, and the visitors just thought they could park anywhere. I felt like I would have no peace and quiet or privacy and I'd have cars parked by me all day as though I were in a parking lot, with people starting into my van, doors slamming etc. I'm not used to camping in noisy places with people around, so this was too much for me, but it might not bother you, so enjoy. 😁
