Guajome Regional Park is located in the coastal community of Oceanside and has a little bit of everything that San Diego County offers. Just 8 miles from the Pacific Ocean, the park is a great place to visit year-round, and is close to many natural and historic points of interest.
Some 4.5 miles of multi-use, non-motorized trails meander through diverse Southern California habitats such as woodlands, chaparral, wetlands and mixed grasslands. Two ponds attract a migratory birds and serve as home to a variety of fish that will test the skills of any angler.
Guajome also has two day-use areas with new playgrounds, a basketball court, restrooms and lots of green lawn space make this park ideal for picnicking – along with 33 tent and RV campsites, a caravan pavilion and a rustic cabin for those wishing to extend their stay overnight.
From I-5 take Highway 76 east 7.5 mito Guajome Lake Rd. Turn right on Guajome Lake Rd. and proceed to the park main entrance. From I-15 take Highway 76 west for 10 mito Guajome Lake Rd. Turn left at Guajome Lake Rd and proceed to the park main entrance.
We really enjoyed this park. The nature trails were wonderful and the lake and nearby pond added to the overall nature experience. The campgrounds were well maintained with all RV hookups available. Each site had a clean and well maintained picnic table and fire pit. The restrooms and showers were in excellent working condition. We enjoyed this park immensely!
Loved our stay in this park! Nice playground and picnic areas. Ducks to feed on the lake with many walking trails. Clean park and restrooms! We had no trouble with our 40ft 5th wheel and pads were nice with table and fire pit. Smaller campground with limited spots for big rigs so plan early!.
Nice little county park! Great for bikes and an afternoon or morning walk. Really nice playground area. The lake was full of water fowl and migratory birds. I think the park could use some better signage for the native and nonnative plants that were adjacent to the trails.
Great hidden treasure off the 76 in North County. There’s plenty of trails here for walking , biking and horseback riding. Trails are clearly marked and have speed warning signs for people on bikes. There’s a campground nearby and an attached parking area that cost $3 for the day. I opted to park on one of the residential streets across from the entrance to the trails. The trails go past two lakes and there a few little bridges that span the streams that feed into the lakes. I saw lots of birds, a rabbit and a weasel of some sort. There are warning signs for rattlesnakes but I didn’t see any reptiles. Great park with decent selection of trails. There a sparingly few trash cans so please take your trash with you and keep the park clean
