We stayed at the Waypoint while visiting family in town over the holidays. We loved this place, highly recommend. They provide smores kits free of charge!! The staff is pleasant and helpful. My family loved staying here and we will definitely be back. Everything was comfortable and we would stay here again. Most of the patrons were friendly, we did have one grumpy fellow camper who pounded on our door to complain of us "speeding"..... off site of the Waypoint. This individual also had their kids dressed in all black playing outside at night, in an alleyway with no lights and no helmets, etc, but that's irrelevant to this review, I digress. We stayed in por que parquet and it was adorable and comfortable. Don't be afraid of the outside shower, it's fully enclosed as an addition to your RV and quite comfortable and warm, even at night. I would try another camper next time, though. We liked the safety of the gated entrance. It's a short walk to the beach over the pedestrian traffic only bridge.

Too unique to past up. What a fabulous experience Even the little things like the sheets, hair products and coffee was superb. I couldn't get enough of the hot mulled cider best I have ever tasted! The s'mores kits could've been fresher but hey I don't expect a new bag of marshmallows to be opened every night and once toasted you can't tell the difference

The is a super cute place to stay! Convenient and walkable for the average person to the beach, toppers, and other eateries and activities.In the evening when you arrive there is hot apple cider and hot chocolate to greet you, 2 bonfires and s'mores packets you can pick up at the office, multiple cornhole games and swings to use. When it's time for bed there are ear plugs and eye masks to use, as it is very bright from the string lights and there is train noise. Last train ran at 10 and first was 7:30 so not too bad unless you have napping babies. The next day rent bikes, (adult size only! Only 1 bike seat lowers to 10 year old level) and go over the bridge to the ventura waterfront promenade then visit the coffee carts, art pop ups and get fish tacos. All in all a fun place for the family to visit!

We were not sure about this and needed a room for a night en route to Ojai. This was perfect. From the time Danielle checked us in and very graciously got us hot coffee (when it was too late in the day) to cheerfully telling us what to do and where to eat---this airstream (Vintners) was like staying at 4 star room and the people around you were people like you----just chilling out with their families. You felt comfortable, relaxed and safe and glad that we came here and not a usual hotel room. It is also a short walk away from the beach, boardwalk and eating places..Rooms: Lovingly restored airstream

Great trailer hotel in Ventura, steps away from the beach. Everyone working there was super friendly, loved on our pup, and went to all sorts of lengths to make sure our stay was great. 100% would recommend if you are looking for a south-of-kilter stay not at a traditional hotel chain.

What an adventurous throwback! Truly once you enter the property it's like goi g back to easier, better days! We stayed in the smallest trailer, Alice in Wonderland. The trailer was very authentic and mostly original. Although the shower was small, it was very convenient (and the property offered showers and toilets as well). There is a lovely patio with 2 chairs and tables, also a large fire pit with 10 chairs just 15 feet from the patio - which was great for making the S'mores provided. We played corn hole and Boggle on the property, walked over the foot bridge to the Ventura Pier, and took provided bikes to have fish tacos on Front Street.The front office staff was amazing and truly made our stay epic! We will be back - next time in one of the "Mansion Trailers"!

My husband picked this fun overnight spot for us. We brought our own camper van - they have a few open spaces for them. They primarily host guests in their own collection of stationary vintage RVS and trailers though. This place is so unique and well located; walking distance to beach, downtown Ventura, the freeway, etc. it's in as industrial area behind upscale apartments and next to the Amtrak rail line. You will hear the train late into the evening but other than that, there's very little noise. It's very secure - fully fenced with locking gate and code for entry. There is community areas to hang: a couple fire pits, adult swings, cornhole. They also have free hikes with baskets if you'd prefer to roll around. Dog friendly. It was very quiet when we were there - a Monday night. If you have a group, they have a circle of trailers with a more private outdoor area to share. I think 5 trailers total so you could easily have 10 people stay. Morning coffee, tea and treats. Evening hot cocoa. Every detail taken care of including blankets for around the fire pits. There's an outdoor bbq area next to trailer 11 which is also right next to the community fire pit. I'd suggest that location if you're looking for the most space. We'll be back.

Can't wait for our next visit! We saw a YouTube video a couple years ago about this place and I saved it for "someday". Well, someday finally arrived. We bought an Airstream several months ago and we were looking for an outing that wouldn't be too far from home. It was sort of last minute and I was so thankful they had available space for us. We stayed 3 days. The grounds were very nice and clean. Loved being nestled amongst all the vintage trailers. We had some reservations about the train track directly behind our unit, but it really wasn't so bad. We actually enjoyed it. The succulent plantings were gorgeous. The staff was awesome. The nearby restaurants were yummy. We had Spencer McKenzies and Toppers Pizza while there. Toppers had a cool Airstream trailer painting on the wall that said Waypoint. We loved the complimentary hot cocoa and marshmallows. We will definitely be back.

I recently celebrated my birthday at Waypoint Ventura and I have to say it was the best experience I've had. The staff greeted me with a birthday note and a free mug which was a nice touch. The highlight of my visit was the campfire and free s'mores kit that they provided. It was such a cozy and enjoyable experience. I also appreciated the free bike rentals to go to the beach, which was a nice touch. The campground itself was also beautiful, with lots of lovely succulents around. I definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique and memorable camping experience.Service: 5/5Ambiance: 5/5Price: $$

Absolutely love this gem of a campground/ hotel!I mean- who wouldn't wanna stay in a vintage airstream trailer?!!Kinda stumbled on this property while looking at Google Maps. And I was so curious when it popped up- I had to click on Google photos then the website!So many trailers of different sizes- all unique in their own way.We reserved #2- The Manor. Think this is the oldest trailer on the property (1946). Each trailer description online ALWAYS mentions if there's an oven inside- IT IS FOR AESTHETICS. The ovens do not work.I wanted a trailer that would comfortably sleep 2 people (which ours did) & I really wanted a bedroom where both of us could walk around from both sides of the bed. We hate beds that are pushed up against the wall. I'm a fussy sleeper, so- I need ample space.Check in is typically 3pm.We called earlier in the day at 9am and asked if we could possibly have an early check in. 2pm is what we were told, would be no issue- but, if something earlier could be done- we would definitely get a call.And a call is definitely what we got! Our trailer was ready at 12:30pm! We paid the price for what you'd pay for a hotel room- and the amenities here- are worth it! Although the bikes weren't available- that was fine!Make sure you call to inquire what gadgets are specifically available in your trailer. We went to Vons grocery store before we came- so that way we didn't have to walk elsewhere. And, the property is nestled within walking distance to Downtown Ventura. Dining options are nearby.The Manor was equipped with a microwave & hot kettle, and a good sized mini fridge.If you wanted to grill- I've seen 2 on site & the office has utensils & plates.Driveway gates close at 5pm and you will be given an access code to enter.2 fire pits on site- and guests receive a complimentary s'mores kit!Hot cider & hot cocoa are available at 5pm in the office.Morning coffee & hot tea in the office by 7:30am.There's a pedestrian bridge that leads you over the 101 Freeway onto the beach!Oh- and the shower inside our trailer- hot water galore! No need to let it warm up!We even used our large breakfast nook as a bed to watch tv for a bit- then realized we could turn/ swivel the tv at an angle towards the bedroom. LOLNext time you're in the area- check out Waypoint!

It was simply the best. The reservation was easy, the communication was straight forward, check in was quick and smooth, and the trailer we rented (The Copperhead) was super cool, clean and comfortable! We called about 30 minutes prior to arrival and Melissa gave us easy directions (and gate code), met us upon arrival and was helpful from check in to check out, and she was so smiley:). Our trailer was right against the train tracks so fun to watch the train go by; train runs about 7AM-10PM (and is actually pretty quiet coming into town - part of the charm of the place for sure). There were lots of family and kids so sweet energy all around. We walked to pizza at the brewery across the tracks (owned I think by same people who own the resort trailer park), and it was fun with pizza that was pretty decent. Given the choice of a hotel or this funky little resort in the future, there is no competition; we would stay here 100%. Thanks Melissa. BTW, our trailer was super clean; please folks - leave your housekeeper a few bucks (maybe $5-10/day for your stay).
