Love this park and have been here a few times before. Let me say, we just upgraded our showers at home spending thousands of $$ with higher-end tile, fixtures, etc., but the showers here at Catalina are bigger and better in every way. After 8 years of RV'ing, never have we seen such nice bath facilities. Not even close. The pools are nice, well-maintained, and there's always room for a few more swimmers. Views of the mountains are spectacular but very site-dependent, so if that's important you'll need to be proactive on site selection. One small section of the park has plenty of pickleball noise which does not bother us at all.

We love our vacations at Catalina Spa. The management has done some nice upgrades such as the Event Garden with BBQ鈥檚 and new pavement throughout the park. I鈥檓 hoping there are plans in the near future to remodel the Bocce Court which is in really bad shape. It鈥檚 a sand court with rocks that skew the movement of the balls. This year there are resident gophers and ant hills on the court. It鈥檚 hard to throw the bocce ball when a gopher pops his head up right on the court. We have been to RV parks with wonderful courts with Astro turf with wood or concrete side boards.

Mismanaged Crazyville! Beautiful views from some sites. The obvious disdain for the customer芒鈧劉s needs are apparent. Trash in the stream; no umbrellas by pool area! Poor trash pickup. Expensive for the treatment you get. Nice pools.

We had a lovely, relaxing week here, our site was nice and quiet and the mineral pools were beautiful and clean with nice locker rooms. The mountain view are beautiful and it芒鈧劉s gated and safe to walk around at night. They have many amenities and things to do and I think it芒鈧劉s a great value considering all of the other lodging choices in the area. They are dog friendly and have a nice dog park. We芒鈧劉ll definitely be back !

Not sure why all the 5 star reviews The place is ok but not great The photos are very deceptive making it look much better than it really is. The spots are regular Rv spots 芒鈧 nothing special Bathrooms and laundry are spotless and nice. Pools are good but we found the many children and drunk people a huge deterrent If you are going to Palm Springs this is a LONG way from town in a remote under developed and not pretty area at all.

The difference two years make! Gave a good review in 2020 but need to withdraw! This place has hit rough times! Quoted monthly price 6 months ago, price went up $100 when we checked in! Spot reserved wasn芒鈧劉t open due to blowing a transformer and over 1/3 park without power. One of the spas hasn芒鈧劉t worked the entire month we芒鈧劉ve been here. Last night, another transformer blew up and caught fire! This leaves another section of the park with no power! Folks were walking around last night not knowing what to do芒鈧 43 degrees and no power! No leadership! Get the impacted folks to operating spaces or offer a warm room! Sorry for recommending this campground! Obviously the ownership is in trouble either financially or by skill. I芒鈧劉d avoid this place until they can get things corrected芒鈧

Great campground filled with extremely friendly staff and other campers! The roads are paved, sites are gravel. The campground has two sections. The original is close to the gate, exercises room, main pool and spa (24 hour). The upper section is newer and has a huge pool, spa and activity room.
With the new health concerns, many of their activities may be postponed for a while. The have live entertainment on weekends. Classes and educational seminars during the week. Bingo, karaoke night... there are several ways to stay busy... or not! Horseshoes, pickle ball, bocce ball, miniature golf and playground. You never have to leave!
We enjoyed our stay last month... called and asked if we could come back and self quarantine there. They fit us in and gave us a special monthly rate, when many could take advantage of the situation!

Very nice resort with odorless mineral hot springs fed pools and hot tubs, loads of amenities and activities. Surrounded by mountain views and open land. Peaceful and quiet, yet an easy 25 min drive into the action of Palm Springs. Rates include tax and electricity - regardless of length of stay. Nice landscaping and flowering bushes in between sites creating privacy and a lovely outlook. We look forward to returning!

We stayed here for 4 nights in early November with our 2 children. We were very impressed with the facilities, the pools were lovely to relax around and everything was very clean. The staff and other guests were extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming. The sites were small, but we had no problem moving our 22 ft RV around. We spent our time around the pool and in the games room, courts or mini golf. There were lots of organised activities and meals available. We would definitely stay here again.
