Nice. A lot of flies and mosquitoes when we were here late October through mid November 2020 so come prepared like we were. Beautiful campground with lots to do on the water. Very clean and the staff here was the best Ive seen in years. Keep up the good work!

Small park but very cool and clean. Tent camping on the river was AWESOME and the staff is great. Lots of trees and shaded tent areas. Pam is so nice and made us feel welcome. The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is that the good bathrooms/showers close from 11pm to 6 am leaving only port-a-pots, and bicycles are not allowed.

Was here for 5 months was amazing stay. Follow rules never have issues, quiet spot with nice river for hot days. Definitely need to book in advance. Ill be back every summer.

I was not unhappy with this rv park, my space was nice, the park was clean, the personal was friendly everything worked. But why go to this park? I know I have been to some parks and have loved them, and read reviews and been shocked to read poor reviews, I just wish 1000 trails would invest a little in this park. Its in California and there is no pool? Maybe not necessarily a pool but something.

This is a small RV park on the San Joaquin River. There arent any 50 amp hookups that I know of and no sewer but there is a dump station. The bathrooms are nice and the grounds are well kept. Good staff.

Very friendly people here! Beautiful place to be! Expect no dump at our site, in case you get one, you will be happy! They do have a dumping station though!

Heaven on Earth. Aplace with lovely staff.

Nice people clean premises. Relaxing quiet getaway. Coming back real soon

May be the smallest of all TT parks but it has tons of positive vibes & Happy to be a part of the TB team attitude. Come visit us 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Good overnite stop in the cooler months, too hot in summer with only 30 Amps available

Quiet, peaceful, just like we like it! It was a little chilly and very windy today...but that happens with fall and winter camping...

Went here as kind of a last resort thing because most places were filled up or closed. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The first spot we went to had a lot of burrs. So definitely not a great place for dogs. The water also had lots of algae and stuff right at the shore. There were lots of spiders and stuff right on the shore too. But other than that it was okay. The second spot we chose was a lot nicer but the sand was too soft.

The staff and the park are very nice .when we arrived they only had a dry camping site so we took it .but on friday the next day they put us in a full hook up site. Awesome

Love this campground, its nothing fancy, but green all year and on the San Joaquin River and cooler than in Manteca proper.

We love turtle beach will be coming back in a month or 2

A million dollars location for 48 dollars a night. By the lake, under the stars, bice and quiet.

Very clean and nice staff but there were leeches in the water and we could not launch our boat and jetskis in the water because the water was so low in every single spot, even in the middle. also heard that someone’s boat got stuck in the middle of the river while we were there

Really enjoyed the day. Here. Was wondering if you can rent monthly. And is there a discount for handicap?

This was a great spot. Staff was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Loved everything about it other than closing the restrooms at 11pm.

Had a great time at Turtle Beach! Grandkids really enjoyed the beach and the movie night. Staff was very friendly and attentive. We definitely plan on going back.

Its always a good day at turtle beach. The staff are truly professional and kind.

Great little resort to visit for a week or weekend. A small but fast scorpion spider.

Excellent stay with full hook up near river. Only downside was finding a dumpster that wasnt full.

It was great people are friendly water is warm fishing was fun

Its a private joint. Turtle beach RV Resort. RV area was decent to the eye. Rv area has a communal restroom. The tent campsite was less then. Broken tree branches couldve been picked up, and trash taken out of the communal dumpster, the beach area couldve been weeded. Do yourself a favor and dont pitch tent on the sand lots. or park on sand. You might get your car stuck. Saw it happen twice while I was there. They had picnic benches and fire pits with BBQ grills on em. Porta pottys with toilet paper until the tp got stolen. It might be a good idea to get your tp locked up or encourage people to bring their own tp. their was a house boat parked on the river looked that like A tweaker fort. Management could do better that place could be a real gem. They also had horse shoes. Couldve use a sand pit for volleyball/dodgeball er something. Step your game up and I might get a membership for $40 a month.

This Thousand Trails park has experienced horrific flooding the past year, but is now open. Some tent sites along the river are still underwater! Park was very clean and orderly. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Plenty of room between spaces. Big rig friendly. We will definately be back.

Very clean facilities, friendly staff. Quiet. Enjoyed our stay. Will definitely be back.

Great views of the San Joaquin River and the park is super clean. Good WiFi coverage, at least for Verizon, and theres free WiFi in the lodge.The only negative is that many of the sites are without sewers.

This was a beautiful park. The staff was great, so helpful with what we needed. We plan to come again.

UPDATED 12/3/18WERE BAAAAACK! this time we stayed in the D section. Arrived Thursday at 10ish am and was able to get a Water/Electrical hook up site.Since were off-season campers, there was a small amount of campers here so that made it WONDERFULLY ideal for us.Becky once again was super helpful and basically a pleasure to communicate with. She NEVER has made us feel like were asking stupid questions, and her attitude was cheerful. :)We un-hooked in the pouring rain but hey, it went very well. Waited for the rain to subside but hearing the falling rain on our Travel Trailer was kind of romantic so my honey and I stayed in for the most part.Friday, cleared up enough to go fishin! We went to the beach we went to last time (along Riverview Beach area) and fished for about 4 hours. Not one bite. Still had fun!Saturday, yeah it rained in the morning but it was still nice to see people walking their dogs and saying Good Morning. So we went to the Recreation room at the Main Office Building. Great variety of activities to choose from! An Armoire full of games, a tv/ couch section, a great pool table, and some reading material. We played a few games of pool until the rain subsided.Okay, rains gone! NOW on to fish again. 5 hours this time at a cute little pathway that lead to a rocky area, but still no bite. So we went back to the beach area. At no time did we feel uncomfortable leaving our trailer or our belongings (bbq and chairs) outside unguarded.Our last day, was kind of a bummer to go back to reality...but again, well be back soon.Oh, will not close without mentioning Levi. Hes an employee there and he is also super helpful and friendly! Pretty cool dude if you ask me! :)*******************************************************************OCTOBER 2018We are TT Members and yes you do have to pick your spot once Check in comes and people start leaving....but ALL of the spots are fantastic.Yes, the ones with FULL hookups are reserved for people who lease yearly, but which ever spot you choose you cant lose.We had every intention on getting a Electrical and Water Hookup. We have a toilet/black water tank in our 29 foot travel trailer...so that was no problem.We arrived early (around 10:30 AMish), check in is 12 noon btw. We were greeted by BECKY! She was wonderful and very personable. Super friendly! She asked that we follow her to a few sites where the campers are leaving at 12. We liked a couple of them.So Becky asked that we wait in the Dry Camp / Overflow area and wait until either sites opens up.Where she lead us was along the River! It was BEAUTIFUL! We saw the campfire ring, just about 25 feet to the nearest beach area......yes you can hear the freeway but BARELY! Trains do come along but I grew up loving trains so it was no big deal to me.Uh on second though Becky...were staying HERE! :DWe have a quietish Generator, Propane, toilet, Fresh Water....BAAAAH....were good!!!We had a few neighbors behind us that were not bothersome. Friendly people taking their walks in the mornings. And employees driving around in their golf carts making sure things are alright. What MORE could you want? Oh yeah, excellent Beach areas to fish all day in!Only thing wrong: If you want to night fish, there are the teeny tiny flying white bugs that bounce off your eyes, nose, get in your ears....there are bunches of them! Theyre attracted to light (Lantern?) so if you dont mind...then its no big deal. Mosquitoes made a MEAL out of me! But hey, its camping! Not a 5 star Hotel!Other than that....this place was AWESOME! Even the dump station was easy to use!We are definitely coming back! Thank you Becky! :D

Joind up turtle beach! My first time here,people very friendly,very nice

Only 4 stars because, understandably, there is no laundry. Also no pool or playground.

Clean and quiet with a nice River Beach, boat launch and lots of trees for shade. Watered grass, green and mowed. No 50 amp sites with sewer were available when we arrived but they set us up to move into one in a few days. This is definitely one of our favorite Thousand Trails campgrounds. Also, the people are tops. Friendly and helpful and always on the job.

Nice clean for a 1000 trails camp ground.But as a 1000 trail members I only got power and water and very little shade if any. My last 3 visits at 1000 trail parks have all been the same. All the good spots are long time parking. Not really worth the membership fee to me.There are plenty of better RV parks.

Very nice place to camp, but a bit pricey. The tent sites are huge! There are portable toilets nearby, but not too close. They are kept VERY clean, no smell really, not even the blue cleaner smell. The beach area was an easy walk, the kids LOVED it! One drawback was the close proximity of the train. It would come through with the horn blowing kind of late (11ish) it is just across the river in the corn field.Since we live so close we probably wouldnt camp there again, but certainly are planning some day trips for sure! It is a hidden gem.

Had an annual site so we could stay close to family. Great location close to San Francisco bay area and the mountains.

Small and no services. Hookups, river adjacent. Rest rooms and showers. Adequate for fishermen and overnight travelers.

We love it here...the staff here is always accommodating and friendly! Our favorite sites are no hook up on the water!

This is a Thousand Trails park, which generally means that the facilities are adequate but not high end. This is a small park that has been adding more water/electric sites, but the 50 amp/full hookups sites are still always full. You come in with reservations and must spend at least a couple days in area D, which is water/electric until a full hookups site is available. Costco, Kohls, Walmart, JC Penney, Bass Pro Shop, and other shopping are within about 5 miles. Home Depot and Petsmart are a little farther.

Excellent campgrounds get wifi with verizon

If you just want to be away from crowded area this is the place where you can fish kayak and boating. Unfortunately Limited full hookup and only one dumping station.

Nice and peaceful place

Great spot for one nite with no hookup, dont bring long haired dog here cause I spent most of my time getting burs out of her coat and toes. Very peaceful and quiet though.

Great campsite, very hearty welcome, the sites are huge, our one night stay was perfect. Moreover, the resort is not expensive so close to San Francisco. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Was nice and water was refreshing

Great place. Quiet, friendly staff.

This is another one of my favorite Thousand Trails parks. Will come back again and again. Love that you can dry-camp in some of the best settings in the park. Grass is green and extremely well maintained. Facilities are the best I have seen. Thank you management and employees. Verizon is full strength.

Quiet campground right on the river.

Fishes like winners ... Caught 6 fish

I really enjoyed staying in this park!Management is really nice and very attentive. One of the managers here whos name is Janice surprised me with such a quick response to our inquiry. I asked her if they had a Fire pit for rent, (which I was almost sure they didnt ) and she told me that she would look for it. Immediately she went to look for it even though it was already around 8 pm, got it out and delivered it to my site and gave us wood too. I was amazed !Thank you Janice for being so helpfuland making such a pleasurable stay for us!!!

First, we enjoyed out stay. Quiet and private feeling. There are some downside about staying here as there is no store on-site. Everything you would want to go to is a drive (not very far, but nothing near by), and amenities on-site are not plentiful. There is a small sandy beach within the park that we were able to fly a kite. It is right on the river, so fishing could be an option I would imagine. We would stay here again I am sure, but we would probably bring more to do (and more groceries).

Very clean and very nice. Spacious lawn area and trees. Gate controlled access quiet nights and friendly staff. No laundry facilities but nearby laundromat. WiFi is an added expence. Fires are allowed and the bench tables are heavy. I would go again. John

The staff helping us out was exceptional. The park itself is quiet and plenty of room between units. Looking forward to having shade from the old growth trees in the summer

The staff is so nice here. They made it fun for the kids. We came in the off season so there were not a whole lot of scheduled activities. We were not disappointed, that was expected. The lady at the front desk went out of her way to give the kids something to do when they came into the lodge. Excellent service! Thanks so much!

Nice little park, good for one night stop. Would like to come back to spend more time.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night in our 34 foot, class A motor home. This is a very cute campground with great views of the river. The beach is wonderful and there is plenty of space in the grassy fields to play games or with your dog. The absolute best thing about our stay was the staff though! Pam, Darrell, CR, and Becky were all so nice and accommodating. They are the wonderful people that we all hope to find in this world . I would definitely stay at this park again.

What a Gem, Well Oiled, Smooth Running Machine, of a place.Check-In was effortless. Janice met us at the gate, Welcomed Us and suggested a great site along the river then came by later to make sure we all set. The next day we dropped by the office to request an extension and Becky was able to get us a few extra days. She suggested we try again the next day to see if she could find more days for us. Dropped by again and she did her magic and was able to extend us to the maximum stay. A nice side note was she remembered my name. Our stay here has been awesome the facilities are well kept and the sites are spacious. Everyone here is friendly. This is definatly a TT Park we will come back to.

Well kept, clean grounds. Clean restrooms and showers. Handicap facilities. Beach and river are very enjoyable and fishing, too. Helpful, friendly hosts and rangers. Well be 6.

Very friendly and very helpful staff here!! The bathrooms were clean and the campsites generously big. The water on that river is a bit dirty though.

No issues at all

This place is cleaned up from a couple years ago. They have it open to public again. More camping spots. Picinic area. Water was a little low thou. Still great place for family getaways.

Clean and friendly staff great place for a weekend away.

Very good place to go wish there was a store

Turtle Beach is very nice fishing Park the water is up right now but other than that its nice

I had no idea this place was even here. Very nice set up. Good security. Very peaceful. Going back this weekend.

Wonderful park but very limited on reservations. Wide open spaces and the overflow is beautiful if you dont need electric. People are great. Lots of walking areas. Only complaint is the dust, dusty roads.

Turtle Beach has wide spaces with grass and large shade trees between the sites. It is a lovely park. But there is no laundry here. Its a very nice camp ground near a river.

This place is a great place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Theyre recovering from a flood that happened in 2017. Even though they are getting back to normal still a great to relax. You can fish boat and kayak. Pets are welcomed. The only drawback is some areas of the grass have these little prickly things that attach to dogs legs and hurt when you step on them if youre walking barefoot.

Best RV park. Manager and staff are first rate. We always feel welcome and park is beautifully kept.

I dont understand all of the positive reviews for this place. It was our first stay at a Thousand Trails park. The road in was really sketchy, the winds were non-stop, the freeway noise and trains were obnoxious, and the place overall feels very blah. No play area for kids, some campers look pretty dug in and unkempt. The water is the only positive thing here. We wouldnt stay again, and I wouldnt recommend it.

We have been to turtle beach before and we love it.......But today my husband and I decided to check it out since the flood and were at the little gate and called someone in the office for help.the employee answered through the intercom im with a customer with attitude and the intercom wasnt working right and the lady in the office came out to where we were and instantly we noticed she had attitude and was rude.i didnt catch her name but was a Caucasian older lady with blonde hair..We decided to leave instead and I made sure I told her okay thank you have a nice day.NOT!.MAYBE NEXT TIME SHE WONT BE THERE AND WILL GET SOMEONE ELSE MORE HELPFUL.

Have stayed here multiple times. The staff is very friendly and facility equally as clean.Only downside, no convenience store on site.

Very nice, staff is awesome. Love this more since last place was all concrete and rocks.

Clean, relaxing, uncrowded, and enthusiastically welcoming. Cool breezes, ample shade from mature trees, and soft grass surrounded by water let you quickly transition into camping mode. The RV sites are spacious and everything is well kept. Turtle Beach is a hidden gem worth enjoying.

I dont have a rig but my parents do. They have loved this park for years. Always satisfied. Ive visited them here & have no complaints.

Love it here, wish we could stay all year. Clean and safe.

Great place for a quick getaway well kept grounds, showers restrooms and porta potties fire pits. Relax go fishing, play horse shoes, watch the greese or the turtles sun bathing staff are very friendly and helpful. Its not a party place.

Very quiet and well maintained, friendly staff too

They were closed (to the general public) when I came to do some work a few months back. Resort was nice, staff was very friendly. I think they are planning a boat ramp and main gate check-in remodel with ADA upgrades. Check web site for schedule and amenities.

Great place to relax river access nice and quiet lots of trees and green grass

Theres a sewer next to this place smells awful.

Its okay, nothing fancy. Dirt roads with lots of speed bumps. Beach area not that impressive. They did have flooding earlier so may still be recovering from that. Portable bathroom/showers and few full hookups for RVs and most of those are leased spots so even if not occupied, cant use them.

Was a fun place to visit....a beach and sand all in Manteca!!

Incredible. Beautiful place and the staff are wonderful

Beautiful grounds, nice and quiet. I absolutely loved the leasing option.

Its so peaceful and beautifully maintained! The staff is super friendly and can be seen checking out everything going on to ensure safety with all the visitors many times daily. I take my family there often!

This is a campsite that u cannot secure a site is 1st come 1st serve,even if u register its still 1st come 1st serve so if u r looking for full hook up i would not recommend this place coz if u arrive late then who knows what u gonna get even if u r a memeberand its expensive

Very limited full hook ups sites. 1 dump station. Were told it was 1st come 1st serve for full hook up. Located next to the train tracks. Restrooms located at clubhouse are up steps. Handicap people may or may not be able to access

Drove all the way down from organ best vacation ever Ill be back Loved it

Just stayed here last weekend and I found it large and enjoyed the clean restrooms but not all sites have dump stations and the long term residents seem to have green grass which they water AND dump sites. I was jealous. I also am a member of 1000 trails but somehow I didnt get a free stay (I had no idea you CALL for this and I reserved online). I asked about this when I checked in and the staff person basically scolded me for doing that wrong and offered no assistance but even charged me the balance of my reservation. Guess Ill work that out on my own.As for the lake, its very much for boats. I wouldnt even let my dog drink the lake water and I wouldnt consider swimming in it although it was over 100 degrees. Nice breeze at night and pretty sunset. Overall it was ok for me as I wasnt hanging out at the campground. Id say not a destination unless youre a boater.

Very friendly

Good stop on our way south and back home!!

Stayed there for a couple weeks in my sisters RV. It was a beautiful place. Nice trees, great people. VERY clean! The price is reasonable too.

The place is closed and the caretakers are very rude and buligerant

Was working cleaning some carpet its a nice little tucked away hiding spot if thats your liking

The beach had broken glass bottles and the water was dirty and had a layer of something gross on top near areas of the beach. Be careful of the broken glass in the sand.

I truly love this lil Fishing RV Camp. Its Mantecas best kept secret.

One word to describe the Turtle Beach RV Resort: Delightful!

Cool spot for fishing

Nice sites, friendly staff .surrounded with water, some fishing. not much activities, seems like quite a few working and long term renters.
