Guadalupe RV Park Ruta del Vino | Established Campground

April 18th, 2024 by Kevin

20 spots with power and water. Only 3 occupied and no one managing no one to take payment.

Close to MX 3 and truck noise all night

$20 no sewer hookup, $25 with sewer hookup. Has water and power and bathrooms were clean. Just fine.

Clean and well managed. Large pull through spots with water and electricity, dump station on site. Hot showers. Friendly host. We paid $20/night. Glad to find this place relatively close to the Tecate border crossing!

Other reviews are right. Lucas is a kind soul. place is clean and tidy. Water/electric/dump. Great first stop over the border.

Spent a night here. Good place with the amenities listed. Showers, restrooms and electricity works well to run the AC.

The place is OK. Not as bad as some people say. Electricity works good, showers are ok, no wifi, of course. 20 usd a night is expensive but 100 weekly is pretty ok.

February 11th, 2023 by rob.bike

Arrived by bicycle, no-one came to take any money, shower good and hot, water seemed good, an easy first night stop after crossing the border in Tecate but more for RVs than tents really

we had a great stay. Luke greeted us warmly. Great fellow.
$20 / night. 30 amp.
Sani dump. we didn't need to connect to the water.
watch closely for the sign when heading south, it faces north.

Nice tidy campsite, a bit close to the road. The bathrooms were very good. There is a Mexican family living on site which look like they clean and maintain the facilities, but no one came to collect money in the evening or morning. I was the only person at the campsite in mid October. Unsure on how much I would’ve been charged for a small tent + bicycle!

In May 2022 we found a fine campground half an hour from downtown Ensenada. The showers are first rate and the toilets are clean and fully equipped with seats and toilet paper. The phone signal is strong here.
There is a refreshing sea breeze that blows up the valley. It cools the campground and makes it cold ( for us Floridians) after the sun goes down. There is some traffic noise which dies away at night. The views of course are lovely. Giving money to the school by virtue of staying here makes this place unbeatable.

Super clean Spot. Hot Showers are great with very good water pressure.
2 Bathrooms, each with 2 x WCs and 2 Showers super clean with toilet paper. Normal price is 400$/night.
Wonderful landscape. Luke, the owner is super friendly. We can recommend this place!

March 14th, 2022 by runjoelrun

very convenient, clean place to stay. as others mentioned though it's right on the highway the noise after 8pm is very minimal. Luke was friendly and helpful.

February 14th, 2022 by Mic’n’Di

We found some more pesos and caught up with Luke later to add 200P more!

February 14th, 2022 by Mic’n’Di

It’s as great as described! The shower was incredible. And the facilities very clean. Like said $20 US was customary; unfortunately we had only set aside 200P (our last $ before the border crossing) which he accepted graciously. We don’t use any hookups - just the shower.

February 4th, 2022 by wnybiker

Place is pretty empty on the off season, so you have your choice of spots. $20 night for a spot with electricity and water. Bathrooms are clean and showers are hot.

January 12th, 2022 by seayakwc

Great place not far from the Tecate border. As mentioned the bathrooms and shower are great. If your looking to enjoy local wine tastings in the valley this is the perfect sport.

January 8th, 2022 by Seventhstream

great place for a Valle de Guadalupe base camp. Hot showers, clean bathrooms. Luke is a beautiful soul. His facility has a school for the deaf, so a great cause!

December 28th, 2021 by gerry.the.gmc

Great campsite. Best showers we have had in Mexico so far! Luke is super friendly and helpful

December 16th, 2021 by Francine the Travel Machine

Great place to stay for a couple nights and Luke is an incredible host and provided great suggestions for the area (wineries!) and shared his great story and history of the place. Great hot showers and lots of pressure. Some road noise but didn't bother us. Highly recommend.

July 1st, 2021 by icteria

We have camped along the baja peninsula and rarely found a story like Luke's (owner/manager). I can't wait to watch: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1412450/?ref_=m_ttfc_tt. Luke was so kind and gave us tips for wineries, food and opened the gate across the street so our family could hike to the top of the boulder strewn ridge. The facility is clean and the location is terrific. I would come back anytime.

May 28th, 2021 by swissjohn

nice place, friendly Owner. Lucas is Canadian and speeks excellent spanish to. Toilet and hot showers clean and functionally. perfect place to visit the lokal vineries.

April 12th, 2021 by suzanplia

Great little RV spot in the beautiful Baja wine country. Full hook ups. Sites have some visual privacy with oleander shrubbery. Palms and a covered picnic area provide shade. Clean restrooms & hot showers. Easy on/off of MX3 makes for some road noise.

March 31st, 2021 by anke.verburg

Nice Campground, super clean bathrooms, but they changed the price to $25 per night. Since it is for deaf school children, we think money well donated. Lots of vegetation in between the sites. Sides all have electric and water, which both we didn't use.

Clean and tidy. most spots are pull through... 3 or 4 are back in. None of the spots are very level.... but all have 20/30amp power and water. Dump station at south end of facility (no signs). Plenty of road noise... but the ends around 8pm. Overall...great place and super convenient for wine tastings.

March 6th, 2020 by mokolwane

As described. Busy road. The night eas surprisingly quiet, no csrs or trucks. Only lady's restroom open. Looks rather dirty and untidy. Hot water in showers. No trash cans or dumpsters. Nobody came to collect money, so we had a night for free.

March 1st, 2020 by Lorne

Excellent! Propre, ombragé, tout confort

November 30th, 2019 by tom6326

Very nice place .... we seem to be the only ones here however has showers, hot water and lots of CCTV so felt safe. Noise from engine breaking trucks between 6am and midnight also the local hotel nightclub can be heared until 2300. Hookups ....pull through and back ins all available after 4 days of rain we was still fine in our 2WD class C motor home.

November 15th, 2019 by Away We Winnebago

Enjoyed another nice stay here. No other campers. It looks like changes are happening at the Rancho. A hotel is being developed on the hill above it. There is no longer a school for the deaf. You can also rent an Airbnb across the street - https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/202090670

June 1st, 2019 by caracoldecuentos

Very nice place. Bathrooms clean and with hot water. Dump station. Nice view. Very safe. Near the vineyards and Tecate border.
Best of all Luke the owner and his wife Josefina. Fee up to 10 to 20 dollars for donation for deaf children

May 21st, 2019 by CanadianAussie

20 USD or 350 pesos per night. Clean washrooms with toilets behind curtains. We spent here our last night in Mexico after 16 days of road trip. This RV Park was the most expensive campground for us in whole Baja California, but is a good choice for overnight stay close to the border.

May 15th, 2019 by Pti-Ket

No more voluntary payment.
Price for 2 pers and a small van 350 mex, still no wifi.

May 12th, 2019 by onestou

Fees are not on donation anymore. An old man came at 9PM to ask 20$US or 350$pesos. With an envelop for "donation" see picture. Will pay tomorrow.

May 8th, 2019 by mike

Seems they are looking for 200peso donation. The hint was on the envelope they gave us. A little loud with truck traffic and three dogs barking through the night.

March 20th, 2019 by michael

Great campground. A short walk through the vineyards to a world class dining experience at Fauna restaurant on the Bruma vineyard.

March 10th, 2019 by aok

Great location, friendly owner, near a great town, hookups and hot showers and all that. The owner, Luke, is very kind.

February 19th, 2019 by ZulaLife

Great campground with water & 30amp electric. Dump station on site. Clean shower with hot water. Have both pull-thru and back in site. We had no trouble pulling in with 40+ft rigs. Overlooking beautiful view.

Guadalupe RV Park:

https://www.facebook.com/Guadalupervpark/

Nestled in the incredible Valle de Guadalupe wine region, Guadalupe RV Park is surrounded by vineyards. This campground is donation based. The proceeds help the owners build schools for deaf children. Lucas is a great campground host and will come and introduce himself when he sees you pull in. The onsite campground manager is also very kind and accommodating. They have hot showers and flush toilets and the sites have water and 30 amp electric. Certain sites have a sewer connection and they have a dump station. Lucas was quick to give us a suggested itinerary for visiting the wineries.

This was a beautiful home base for our visit to Valle de Guadalupe and we will definitely be back!

January 28th, 2019 by facebook.com/roamingsmallpatricks

Camping by donation.
Funds used to support the deaf school across the street.
We gave $150p and stayed the night. We got some advice for local wineries from Luke.
The washrooms were clean and spacious.

December 21st, 2018 by truckhuis.org

We came from Mexicali, ideal to stay the night and head on south.
Restroom and shower clean and hot
Nobody showed up to collect between 4 PM and 9 am.
The 3 quiets down after 11 pm and gets lively after 6 am again

December 15th, 2018 by liferewired

Great place to stay the owner Luke is very nice and comes by to collect the money. It’s 5 dollars or 100pesos Full Hookups, Showers and Bathrooms

November 28th, 2018 by PanamePanam

Very nice place. Perfect after crossing the border in Tecate which seems to be better than Tijuana.
Electricity, hot shower and everything was super clean!!! No potable water but you can find everything in the small city 1 mile away
200 pesos per night

November 13th, 2018 by m.m.e.gonecamping

nice place, bathrooms looks clean.
parked right beside a orange tree.
No one showed up to take our money.

October 12th, 2018 by ullrgoessouth

Convenient RV park directly off the highway. Bathrooms and showers. Lots of spots. Since it’s right next to the highway it’s a bit noisy for sleeping. Also, non-secured driveway but we never felt unsafe. A couple other RVs there that appeared to be permanent fixtures. Really nice hotel and restaurant across the street if you want a nice dinner.

No one asked us for $ to stay there and we couldn’t find a place to pay.

July 26th, 2018 by cruzzor

2018 July update - Bathrooms are all fixed, quite nice with hot showers. Electricity and water at most sites (not potable). They have a dump station. A guy comes around to collect a donation for the use of the campground. Nicely located for wine tasting in Valle de Guadeloupe. Across the street from and owned by Rancho Sordo Mudo which is a school for the deaf.

April 9th, 2018 by bvwittig

Lovely little RV park very close to all the wineries (LA Cetto is just 5 minutes down the road). Full hookups available. Just pull in and choose a spot, the friendly owner comes by in the early evening to collect a donation (proceeds go to the school for the deaf). We paid 200 pesos for one night (only using small amount electricity, would recommend more if you use water/dump station). Nice bathroom with hot showers.

March 9th, 2018 by alain.cardis

The best campground we see in Baja !
Very well maintained. Telcel ok.
Dump station. And huge bathroom with hot shower !
Absolutely a great place.

March 1st, 2018 by yukonjack1898

Perfect location on the way to/from Tecate Border crossing; nice and very clean maintained campground in the Valle De Guadalupe, the smaller sites are shaded with palm trees, the washrooms are the cleanest on our 7.week trip at Baja-the showers are really hot,
we paid 200Pesos/1night to Luke, a very friendly guy who take care to the campground; water,power, flush toilets and a big, clean hot shower...absolutely worth the money, which goes to the school for Mexican deaf children

Got in late so never saw the owner. No facilities, but close to town In you’re doing wine shenanigans. Also, though the olive trees were pretty and rustic. Right off the main road so some noise comes with that. Also, other park noted nearby seems to be a duplicate entry.

February 24th, 2018 by Ellindoviajando

RV Park next to the Mex 3 with drive-through sites, electricity and hot showers. Camping fee: donation. Friendly owner, speaks english. Good place near the border.

December 19th, 2017 by funlifecrisis

Clean campground with running water, close to the Valley De Guadalupe wineries. No bathrooms, wide open next to the road with some noise of passing trucks. This campground is run by school for the deaf and blind across the street. A guy came in the morning to collect $200 pesos and it goes towards the school.

March 19th, 2017 by travelingtuttles.com

Did not stay. Noticed lack of rv parks listed for the Valle De Guadalupe, but this is nice with trees and spots and looks to have hookups.

December 15th, 2016 by Underway.ch

Confirm the other comments. We had water though and the school seems to be across the road. We stayed over night but nobody came to collect money. A gro of large US RV's were there too

March 4th, 2016 by Home on the Highway

No one here but an old RV parked off in the trees surrounded by junk, he didn't seem interested in talking to us. Bathrooms closed, no power, no water. But it's a place to stay if you are looking for something right of Ruta3. I didn't see any deaf school either, there is a brand new super ritzy restaurant and hotel across the street that looks interesting and $$$

November 1st, 2013 by Song of the Road

A run down RV park that looked scary and was lacking a bathroom because they had been robbed of all the fixtures. Price is a donation to the school for deaf children that is across the road. ~USD $5.00
