What to Expect
Quick Reviews of Coachella RV Parks and Campgrounds
From a seasoned RVer who has RVed coast-to-coast in the USA over 20 times


Coachella
Celebrate the Spirit of Southern California
Coachella, California, located in Riverside County, is renowned for the annual Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, which attracts global crowds each April. The city is steeped in Hispanic heritage, showcased in community events like Día de los Muertos and its authentic Mexican cuisine. Visitors can also explore the Coachella Valley History Museum for a deep dive into the region’s history. This blend of cultural vibrancy and scenic beauty makes Coachella a unique destination in Southern California.
How I See It as a Big Rig RVer
It’s challenging to fully understand an RV park or campground just from reading Google reviews, as they can often be unclear or incomplete. That’s why our site relies on firsthand experiences from an experienced RVer who tells it like it is, to provide you with honest and detailed insights into each park or campground.
Review
Coachella Lakes RV Resort
Coachella Lakes RV Resort is currently the newest RV Resort in the area. Phase 1 is now open, welcoming guests to stay and enjoy use of their pickle ball courts and 18 hole putting green. If you have an RV that’s over 10 years old, your only reprieve is if it’s a full restoration that may/may not be approved by management. If you’re planning to purchase a park model in the near future, and you have a newer RV, then this may be a good community for you. Note that space pricing and age restrictions have been designed to ensure Coachella Lakes remains a luxury park into the future. If you’re planning to attend Coachella Music Festival, you’ll want to book your site early – and arrive as early as possible as traffic can back up all the way to the LA area. There’s no RV camping at the music festival, so if you have a newer RV and want to enjoy the festival, Coachella Lakes might just work for you.

Indio Springs RV Resort
About 15 minutes away
Indio Springs is a nice place to stay in the winter... if... • You’re age 55 or older • You’re not planning on staying short-term • You’re planning on paying by the month • You’ll be heading to the next location before the 9-month stay limit Truly a nice park but only if you’re old enough and not going anywhere very soon.

Motorcoach Country Club
About 15 minutes away
Let’s be honest. Some places make you feel like a million, and other places make you feel out-of-place if you didn’t spend a million or more on your RV. You’ll most likely find one specific group of people here: Those who never ask “how much?” If that question is on your mind, well, you’d better keep searching! If it’s not – then this is a very, very nice resort.

Outdoor Resort Indio
About 15 minutes away
The last time a pop-up was spotted here was when a ground-hog popped up wondering why there was a caterpillar coming after him! Okay – that story isn’t true, but this is a true luxury resort where you’ll find only the nicest of motorcoaches. If you happen to drop in and ask the price, the office person will gladly share the price of several surrounding resorts!

Shadow Hills RV Resort
About 15 minutes away
Centrally located in Indio, the overhead picture says it well. This resort was built for the RV’s of yesterday where small rigs ruled the earth and pull-through’s were not yet a thing. The 90-degree angle back-in sites and narrow roads make navigation a challenge, and anything of any size needs an RV shoe-horn to wiggle into a site. If you plan to park for a while, perhaps working in the area or needing a place for a while, this park might be worth the challenge of parking.
