Many campgrounds in and around Sacramento provide everything you'll need for an idyllic camping getaway. One of the best RV parks near Sacramento is the Flag City RV Resort. Located 35 miles south of the city in Lodi, every site at this campground comes with full hookups, WiFi access, and a picnic table. Keep yourself busy around camp by taking a dip in the pool or challenge a fellow camper to a game of horseshoes. If you fancy exploring the local area, Lodi is known for its wine tasting excursions, and the nearby Sacramento River Delta is excellent for watersports like boating, windsurfing, and fishing.
If you'd prefer a peaceful vacation away from the bright lights of the big city, reserve a spot at the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area Beal's Point Campground. Surrounded by the Sierra Foothills and Folsom Lake, this small campground provides a mixture of sites with no hookups and full hookups. You'll also find bathrooms, showers, and a dump station available onsite. While the campground is relatively basic, the area is superb for getting outdoors. There's a 32-mile bike path that leads to Old Sacramento and Folsom Lake where you can fish for catfish, bass, and perch or spend the day kayaking.
