Pelican Point Rv Park

If you are tired of being harassed, threatened, bullied, have been harassed or bullied in the past, tired of not having your space maintained, contact the owner at Canada Cove Mobile Home Park in Half Moon Bay. Daily rate $ 84.00 2 people 1 car and a spot by the month $ 1284.00 or $ 1500.00.

We arrived on Sunday, July 5, 2015 to campsite 36 where we were surprised to find that our site had a beautiful view of the ocean. The office people were wonderful. When we arrived, they helped us into our site. I locked my keys in my rig and they went out of their way to find help for me. (Even a couple of the permanent homesteaders came out to help!!!) This place is a gem.
Due to the water shortage in California, the lawns are dying somewhat but it still looks well kept. Bathrooms/​Showers are cleaned every day from 1−3pm. They are kind of old looking but are CLEAN. Washer and Dryer’s are $ 2 each. Most sites are pretty level.
The only bummer was we expected to have a site with 50 AMP electricity but learned after we were all set up that our site was only 30 AMP. It would have been nice to know this when we checked in.
We walked to the ocean every night as they have walking trials from the RV park to the Ocean as well as the Ritz Carlson hotel and beyond. We sat in the hotel chairs and watched the sunset go down while the Bag Pipers (yes, dressed up in their skirts) play some tunes for us.
Safeway, Round Table, Diesel/​Regular Gas Stations, Burger King and even a Dollar store are about 3 miles away.
I am so happy that we were able to enjoy this place for 10 days. They even take AAA/​AARP and if you stay for a week, you get a free day stay so you only pay for 6 days. I could have gone to a couple of other places in Half Moon Bay but this place had the best prices and by far the best atmosphere and employees. THANKS PELICAN POINT RV PARK — I will see you again sometime.

First of all DO NOT show up early and think you can check in. Very strict check in policy. I was 15 minutes early, really, and pulling my 30 5^th wheel, they made me leave the park so I parked down the road at a public parking lot until the clock struck noon. Then the real fun begins, dont try to play games in front of your site or park in a friends site… all is forbidden. Half the park is full timers their sign should read Rude Point Mobile Home Park! Go to the KOA about 30 minutes south. Better customer service, park, sites, views and so on.

Please read the reviews before giving these guys any of your time! there are better places! the reviews are correct, this place …

Stayed here for two months while I was working away from home. My wife and kids have come to visit on several occasions. One day Tracy the Tirant tells my wife that she failed to check in and that she needs to pay extra for my kids and her car or she neds to leave. I was in the office the night prior with my kids buying them ice creams and the owner Becky never said anything about needing to pay for the kids or extra car. I would think as a monthly resident that im allowed to have my family visit without my wife being harassed. The extra car fit on the site I previously paid for along with my truck without taking any extra parking space. As for my kids Tracy told me that i am only allowed 2 people per site without paying extra due to the added electricity, water and sewer useage. I can understand this but when I told her it was only me staying there 98 percent of the time and I wanted a credit for the other person that im allowed she became very unpleasant. No customer trainning program required by this employer i guess. Bottom line is its a beautiful location and Becky is nice but they will give you shit and nickle & dime you every chance they can. Just be prepared, bend over and have a smile on your face if you want to stay here.

Though this was our first RV experience, my wife and I were really impressed. Everyone was friendly; long timers and the staff. The grounds are really well maintained as were the facilities.
Just a few yards away you can walk on the Bay Trail with gorgeous views north and south along the Ritz Calrton’s golf course; the sunsets were spectacular. Hope in your vehicle and drive along the coast, visit downtown Half Moon Bay (which has really turned into an eclectic mixture of new and old; a bit of Carmel with a rougher edge).
I can see where if you’re rowdy and like party late into the night, this would not be the place for you. Then again, if it was it wouldn’t be the place for us.
Peaceful, friendly folks all around, dog friendly, gorgeous walks nearby. Heck, what’s not to like?

We have been staying at this park for 5 years and have never had a problem. The managers and staff have always been helpful and respectful. We have witnessed confrontations but and the problems were always created by people staying in the park, not the managers or staff. The setting is simply stunning and great for walking.

Did not see the negative reviews of this place until after I had booked it.
I had some concerns.
They were unfounded.
Yes, there are rules. More rules than normal even. The one about not leaving once you are parked for the night seemed a bit excessive, but was not a problem. We were staying only one night and once we were checked in and settled had no need or desire to go anywhere else, so it was a non issue.
There was no problems with the staff or fellow campers.
Everyone was happy.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
The bathrooms were clean.
The showers were hot.
The grounds well maintained and the setting nothing less than beautiful, as you would expect from a spot right on the Pacific Ocean.
I would definitely stay here again.

REVIEWS ARE 100% CORRECT!
Pro:
Beautiful Beach
Cons:
Too many to list and our complaints are exactly the same as all other poor reviews!
Upon checking-​out we were told we broke the rules all weekend and we weren’t allowed back! Thank goodness we’re on the same page and we will definitely take their advice and spend our money else where!
GOOD LUCK! If you’re over 55 with no kids, planning on living there and being a hermit crab inside your RV, then this is the place for you!
NO THANKS! Too many other options along the coast to camp, then this negative environment!
Management and employees need a happy pill and be grateful for their surroundings so others camping can enjoy themselves and soak up the ocean air! SO SAD!

I lived at this RV park for 16 months and loved the area, but I finally got so fed up with the controlling and oppressive atmosphere that I had to leave.
If you read my other reviews on Unilocal,you’ll see that I’ve been around for a while and I’m a member of good standing. I realize that some people have had good stays there, however that was probably because they kept a low profile. Heaven help you if you decide to innocently put up a tent or tarp in your space to shield you from the sun, or erect a hammock in the wrong place. You will get a very early (7 AM on weekends) visit from the «golf cart Nazi», who will scream epithets at you and tell you that you can leave if you don’t like his tone.
He has awakened me from a sound sleep at night, threatening RV people who came in on their own after 8 PM, screaming that he will call the police on them. I have seen him shout at some really nice people because he thought they dumped something during their last stay. The man can be truly frightening and the other staff back him up because they are his relatives.
Why doesn’t the owner do something about it, you ask yourself. We don’t know, but we think it’s plain laziness.
It’s a shame because it’s a beautiful site for an RV park. It’s next to the beach and you can’t beat that. But is it worth it? All I can say is: stay there if you dare.

THE REVIEWS ARE TRUE!!!
Just called to inquire about availability for this month. The lady was extremely rude and snappy. Good luck getting customers to stay in this RV park when they call to make reservations. They might want to invest in a website so no one has to speak live with anyone.
I’ll make sure I wave as I drive by to my new destinations in my trailer!!!

Don’t camp here.

I am a little worried to write this review, I dont want this place to get very busy! We made a reservation a few weeks ago for a Friday and Saturday night, no problem got us right in. I called on Wednesday to say that work commitments had come up and we would not be in until Saturday. no problem! We showed up Saturday very anxious due to the numerous bad reviews. The lady at the counter and her little helper were extremely warm and welcoming. They showed us to our site, and when it was a little too steep for our trailer she graciously showed us to another one. We are not loud party-​ers, we keep to ourselves and keep our area clean. There were no problems! This place was great. I am giving 4 stars for a few reasons, they have a very old sewer system, so our normal equipment would not work (we could either rent or buy a new attachment) so we had to hook up and drive to empty our tanks, not the biggest deal, but they could just let us borrow the attachment? Also the spaces are kind of close together and nothing really separating them. But 5 stars for great staff, clean park, with cell service, wi-​fi and 5 minute walk to the beach!

This park is the only RV park in the area and the idiot jerks that run it know it so they can treat you however they want. Yes, they have rules and we understand that but it doesn’t matter if you break down and call them they have no feelings. Gates close at 8:00pm and you show up at 8:03 they won’t let you in the park! I don’t think that they have ever owned a RV, or they have one and live there because they can’t afford to live anywhere else so they make their customers miserable!!! This park is near the Ritz Carlton, and close to the beach but the manager might not like the way you walk or something and kick you out!

STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS! This used to be a nice place. It changed hands and is now run by the rudest people I’ve ever encountered camping. We arrived and checked in and then left to go to the store. The owners daughter called my wifes cell told us that since we had left, we were now cancelled and should not return. SERIOUSLY? This was at 6pm Friday night. Luckily, we found another place and never went back. And we never will and I strongly suggest nobody else go there either. These folks do not belong in the camping business.

We love this park. This is the second year in a row we have camped here — 3 weeks in 2012 and a month this year. We are planning on 2 months next year. You just can’t beat the location (overlooking the Ritz golf course and ocean beyond that) and quietness of this park. To top it off, Half Moon Bay downtown is a few minutes away with great restaurants and niche shops.
The review would be a 5 if there were more amenities like a hot tub.
There are several negative reviews written that almost prevented us from staying here last year — I am glad I did not over react :).
I’d like to address some of the review comments based on our experience and interactions with the staff here:
Rules — yes they have MANY rules and are strict in enforcing them. To be honest though, none of the rules have bothered us. But that is probably because we are not partiers, are ok walking our dog on a leash, and don’t have a motorcycle or car trailer (they are very strict on no motorcycles as they said they had problems in the past).
Park Gorilla — these comments from other reviewers made me laugh when I read them. Gary (the «gorilla’s» name) is actually a very nice person when you get to know him a bit. He has asked all the other staff to let him deal with any issues so he is the one who most people complain about, but we have had no problems at all with him. Then again, we are ok with following the rules…
Check-​in: They definitely have a strict check-​in policy about late arrivals — BUT they tell you this when you reserve a site and when they call to remind you of your upcoming reservation (which was nice btw) so it would be hard to be surprised unless you are driving in late without reservations. The problem for them is they are a small park with a core staff and want to help you with backing into the sites since people in the past have caused some damage and there fore don’t want people coming in late and trying on their own.
Residents: about ½ seem to be year round and ½ short-​term. Usually we avoid parks with many long-​term residents, but the long-​termers here are almost all pleasant and accommodating.

I wish I would have read the reviews previous to making my reservations here. Nice clean park, but woman behind the counter acted as though she was doing me a favor by registering me, then was just out right rude. I for one will NEVER stay at this park again…

Avoid this place!
Unless you want to be treated so bad that you leave the park! the golf cart flunky, Gary, who is the park manager is a real IDIOT. He is rude and violent and just a complete nut job. We will NEVER go to this spot again. This guy is just insane.
He was so out of control we all left.
My advice, find a different RV park or just stay home. He is HORRID.

Beautiful spot… but the little man on his go cart rides around reeking havoc. Not worth the pain. This guy is a lunatic.
What a shame! Never again will I
this rv park. We are upstanding senior citizens that firmly believe in following the laws and rules of good conduct, also
Beleive every business owner or manager has the right to run their business the way
they want to.

I have been camping for over 20 years and this was the worst campground I have ever stayed at with my family. It has a nice location but the entire staff is extremely rude. They are obsessed with telling you what you can’t do. We counted over 30 signs stating what you can’t do. It seems like most people staying there are permanent residents.
Save your money and don’t stay here.
