Phew. Two stars because they had a spot for a night when our other plans fell through. They also allowed us to check out late after our Alcatraz tour without a fee. Otherwise, this is a one star experience through and through.
For this unfamiliar with SF history - this is a parking lot by the since demolished Candlestick Park of the Giants and 49ers. It is probably 95% full-timers, and the road leading in is flush with people living in cars and RVs that are no longer mobile. The area has had plans for development delayed over and over again since 2015
We spent one night here, and paid $125 for full hookups for the night. The host offered us three potential spots, and two of them were unavailable because full-timers had their cars parked in them. Spots are super tight, compounded by all of the additional vehicles of full-timers. Lots of trash in the strip of landscaping between our spot and the next one. We literally heard a gunshot as we fell asleep.
This was our last resort, and while we didn芒鈧劉t encounter any problems other than having to ask people to move their vehicles so that we could park and leave, we didn芒鈧劉t feel safe, wouldn芒鈧劉t allow our kids to go outside, and were worried about theft the entire time we were there. Thankfully, we walked away without incident.

The most expensive RV camp on our 16 days stay in the US and the worst one we stayed on.
225$ for 2 days.
The spaces was small and many of the guests seemed to be staying there all year. A lot of noise in the morning as other 芒鈧揼uests芒鈧 went off to work.
The area around the RV park looks like it芒鈧劉s from a war zone.
A lot of homeless is sleeping just outside the gate, but there is a guard on the RV site when the office closes.
Will not recommend this to anyone.

If you need a place to park your RV, have full hook ups and be in San Francisco then this is the place. The spaces are close together but we weren芒鈧劉t planning on spending much time at the park. We were able to get a site the same day. It has decent laundry facilities.

There aren't a lot of options anywhere near downtown San Francisco. That is the one plus against almost all negatives.

Stayed in a 25 foot motor home early October 2016 for three nights. Daughter lives in San Francisco so wanted close by.
First, the roads into the RV park are full of potholes. Cannot dodge the holes in the street. Not the fault of the park, but city. The area is "sketchy but the park does have security in the evening and is gated.
We paid $89 cash (not incl tax) and that was with a discount. Many of the RVs were either seasonal or full time. Lots of stray cats roaming about. The Candlestick Baseball Park was partially demolished and rubble left behind. Honestly, the area around us looked like a leftover war zone.
We would leave in the morning after breakfast and return later in the evening, so don't know the happenings of the park. Did not use any restroom facilities as we had full hookup.
On our day for leaving, we went to dump, pulling the levers on our rig as usual. All of our black water backed up and spewed everywhere! We immediately tried stopping the flow but most of the damage had already been done. Sought management and finally help came to unplug the sewer line. Fortunately, I had put my water hoses off the ground when setting up. That almost never happens. The men who helped, knew no English, and laughed the whole time, pretty much making us feel like idiots!
I went to the manager, asked for a partial refund and he said he would have the owner call me. I asked a few times while we were there, and then tried to teach the owner when we were once again on the road--to no avail.
Due to overflowing sewage, rudeness in the laughter, and the owner not having the decency to at least call, we will NEVER stay at the Candlestick RV Park in San Francisco, ever again. We will RV to SF again and go out west (this was our second time) but by-pass this park.
I have the rating two stars rather than one star because it was fairly clean within the park, asphalted, and management did come to the rescue, a little.

Small places. $85,- for 1 night and $15,- for 2 persons. Kind people but to expensive for what you get.

Same as the other reviews. The spaces are tight. Was able to put out both slides but that's it. No space for awning or enjoying the outside. It is close to the city and the people running the place were very nice, accommodating and friendly. The park was very clean and offered a nice shop for food items and RV supplies. We felt very secure. There was a lot of noise from the construction demolition at Candlestick Park but it was livable. I would stay again.

A good and secured campground in San Francisco right across from the soon to be demolished Candlestick Park. Pricey but the only option to be close to downtown with your camper. We actually rented a car from Enterprise that was 3 miles away. Cheaper than the campground shuttle, better able to go to different places in the city and not worry about dinging your vehicle!
