Columbia 49er RV Ranch

The grounds are clean and staff is very helpful. They helped us back into our site which was appreciated since it's a cul-de-sac and very tight. If you are seeking a site for a home base while you tour this historical area, this campground will work. The sites are very small, short and close to each other. We had to park our truck in the site parallel to our camper, which took up almost all of the site. Quite a few campers are obviously full time. If you have children, there is no place for bike riding or an area to play. I felt it was worth a review especially for those with children.

This a quaint RV park with limited shirt term RV spots. It is about 45 minutes to Calaveras, 15 minutes to Jamestown Railroad, and 2 hours to get to the Yosemite Valley. It is a very quiet place to stay. Spots are a little short, so with our tuck pulled in, there wasn't much space. However, this wasn't a trip where we just hung out at the camp ground.

From the Sacramento area, there are a few ways to get here. Check the map and directions ahead of time so you know how you're driving and are comfortable with the roads and pulling a trailer.

The 49er RV Ranch is an amazing place to stay! I will never forget the kindness of the owners and maintenance when our trailer broke a leaf spring hanger. They were gracious and helpful while we repaired the trailer.

One of my favorite things about this park is it is clearly family owned. You can also tell how much they care about it. The grounds are well maintained and it is such a fun atmosphere with the gold mining theme throughout.

It is also a great location. It is easy to get to many of the amazing places to see in the area.

I highly recommend 49er RV Ranch!

We really enjoyed our stay at 49er ranch. The staff are very friendly. We walked along the road into Columbia historic park, took around 15 mins. We panned for gold at the park which was a great experience. Our plot was by the road, so there was a little noise but not too disturbing. The facilities are clean, and we were really pleased to be able to use the laundry and have wifi here. Would recommend!

Hi Fellow RV'rs.

This was our first trip to the park, I didn't do my home work before I went there. The web site is a little bite over glorified for what it is. The staff was wonderful and very helpful and John was GREAT. BUT. Pictures and Inf. of what is there dose not quite make since. Not a lot of room for parking and trying to put your rig in is a little challenging but there willing to help. And the list goes on, very very old school environment and worn down. Please read other peoples reviews before going there, make sure that's what your looking for. Also the road noise is terrible, but that's not there fault. Also a lot of very hard working early morning people going to work stay there. No water at the water wheel. Complained three times. Over all it was OK. Thanks Tony and Linda and puppy.
