Rancho Oso RV & Camping Resort

Have been there a few times. Not within a year. Typical thousand trails campground ie nothing much there besides a cold pool.full Hook ups lacking, not a lot of room between rigs. For less lake cachuma a few miles away offer the Same or more for less money

Cancelled my booking and have not refunded me. Not answering emails or calls!!! Left me with no stay and lost my 230 dollars deposit won't even acknowledge any attempts to contact them. Stay away as they will keep your money

Had reservations for 6 months. Showed up and there were 2 spots up top but they could not fit us as they were very small sites. However there were class B vans in big sites we could fit into. The employee at gate told us to go look down the hill. We took outlet car down there. It is a mud pit. The road down to there wash 1/2 washed out and full of huge pot holes. The sites we could have fit in have 2’ deep gullies washed out in the front of them and we would have dragged our rear end trying to go up that. There were also low tree branch in those sites so I am not sure if we could have been in them anyway. We went back up by the gate and saw some empty spots off to the side. We asked about them but the guy at the gate told us we could use them because they are only for people with horses. Funny because there is no color difference on the map nor signs that say horse people only. If it is supposed to be first come first serve then shouldn’t those sites count too? Or if they are going to keep those sites close to horse pastures for horse people shouldn’t they also keep bigger sites for bigger vehicles?

Step back in time and into nature at beautiful Rancho Oso. Hiking trails, horses, stone buildings, covered wagons, tiny houses, cabins, pool and jacuzzi. So much character . The general store has a decemt selection of items.. The drive on highway 154 has spectacular views, close to Santa Barbara, Lake Cachuma, wineries and more . Loved it!

Always clean, well kept grounds and facilities. Staff always helpful and friendly. The daytime view and nighttime stars are spectacular every time! In 37 years (back to when it was NACO RanchoOso) this campground has never disappointed us! Thank you Rancho Oso!
