Absolutely no complaints about this little known amazing RV campsite. Now the sites themselves are nothing to get excited about being that they are simply backins against a fence in a parking area. The sites were not level front to back or side to side... but so what! We paid $34 per night for 30 amp full hookups and could walk from our RV right out on to the tidal beach (at low tide) and out to the main beach in less than 20 minutes! This is super high dollar real estate and worked fine for us. In addition we stayed over the weekend and had a blast at 2 unrelated conventions taking place on the property! During the week there was little traffic although some of the delivery drivers did drive rapidly through the lot. Verizon 4G and phone was solid and fast. We did not get a chance to ride the trail north from the park but did see it and it looks good. During our stay the Solano entrance was closed for construction forcing us to drive right through the main part of the fairgrounds (through the main gates) and make a hard left turn to the RV sites. Onsite camphost was very nice. If you are in to kayaking check the tide charts. During high tide the tidal flat was completely full and would make for some great paddling.

📖 About This Campground
Del Mar Fairgrounds RV Sites in Del Mar California offers full hookup RV spaces to the public for much of the year. The facility is closed to the public from late May through late September, when the San Diego County Fair and Del Mar Thoroughbred Club horse racing meet takes place.
The sites are all backins on pavement with white marked line dividers (a parking lot). The hookups for water, electric (30 amp only) and sewer are all located along the back of the RV (on the fence) so RV owners should be sure they have enough hoses and cables to reach to the very back. Restrooms and laundry facilities are available (located behind site 39).
There is nothing fancy about this location other than its immediate access to the fairgrounds. Depending upon the site you may be looking forward at parked trailers and vehicles or out at the tidal marsh and coastal railway (lots of rail traffic passes but no horns sound).
Reasonably priced the RV sites are all on a first come first served basis. An onsite wagon master manages the RV area. Enter at the Solana Gate.
There are some walking areas for pets and people along the tidal marsh lands. Situated in an urban area guests have access to restaurants, stores and fuel. This is one of the less expensive places to camp in a RV in San Diego. Just north of the Del Mar Fairgrounds is a dirt multi-use trail called the Coast to Crest Trail for hiking or biking.
