Campgrounds and RV parks near Glendora, CA

At Bonelli Bluffs RV Resort and Campground, Puddingstone Lake supports fishing, boating, kayaking, and jet skiing, plus a lakeside trail network and Raging Waters waterpark within the regional park. Camp Williams Resort puts campers on the East Fork of the San Gabriel River for swimming, fishing, gold panning, and access to Angeles National Forest hiking, with Bridge to Nowhere and bungee jumping nearby. Chino Hills State Park has roughly 90 miles of trails across about 14,000 acres of grassy hills and oak woodlands for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Fairplex RV Park is steps from LA County Fair events and NHRA drag racing, and within about 30 to 45 minutes of Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, and Universal Studios.

Glendora has a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and cool, wetter winters. Most rain falls between November and March, with February historically the wettest month. Lowland campgrounds like Bonelli Bluffs and Fairplex RV Park stay open year-round, but winter storms can saturate sites and trigger temporary closures on canyon roads leading to Camp Williams Resort in the San Gabriel Mountains. Check road conditions on Highway 39 before heading up East Fork. Spring is the busiest window at Chino Hills State Park, when wildflowers carpet the hills, typically from March through May. The park also closes for at least 48 hours after rainfall exceeding a quarter inch and during Red Flag fire warnings. Summer brings clear skies and inland highs that often climb into the 90s Fahrenheit; shaded riverside sites along the East Fork and lakeside spots at Puddingstone are noticeably cooler than open pads. Fall has the most stable weather and lower demand, but Southern California's fire season peaks from late summer into fall, and fire restrictions or evacuations can affect Angeles National Forest sites.

Bonelli Bluffs has paved, level full-hookup pads with 30 and 50 amp service, water, and sewer, room for slideouts, and lake views from sites along the bluff. Fairplex RV Park offers full hookups on asphalt pads with a heated pool, laundry, mini-market, and cabins, but sites are tight and park rules are strictly enforced. Camp Williams Resort has shaded full-hookup riverside RV sites that can accommodate larger rigs, plus tent sites on the riverbank; expect winding mountain road access and limited cell service. Rolling M Ranch at Chino Hills is primitive: paved parking for RVs up to 30 feet, picnic tables, lantern posts, flush toilets, hot showers, drinking water, no hookups, no dump station, and no open fires, though gas stoves are allowed.
