Getting Outdoors
Whether you're sunbathing, surfing, or building sandcastles, beaches are the main event at San Onofre. Experienced surfers make a beeline for Trestles, a notorious surf break known for monster waves. Surfers have been riding redwood boards here since the 1940s, though today you'll see modern foam and fiberglass thrusters. As well as surfers, watch for whales, dolphins, and sea lions splashing offshore.
Camping at San Onofre State Beach

Immaculate camper, easy to drive, well equipped. We only used it for a 3 day weekend. The interior space was a bit tight for 2 large people. Except the bed , which was very comfortable.

We absolutely loved our experience from start to finish! We last minute wanted to do a staycation since my partner was on call and needed to stay local. We asked for a reservation around 1 pm and was able to pick it up by 6 that evening! It was so last minute we were so grateful they were available. We ended up taking it to Dixon Lake in Escondido and it was perfect. The battery on the van lasted the entire 3 nights. Jarvis even mentioned it wasn’t fully charged due to our last minute booking so I can only imagine how much more juice would have been left in it! We also didn’t run out of water and the gray water was super easy to clean out. We had never stayed in a converted van but oh my is this going to be my new obsession! I was so grateful they allowed dogs, as my pup would have been so sad if she couldn’t join. I also really appreciated the things that the van came with. I was able to use their dishes, clean my dishes, use their hammock, and we utilized their table as well. They have the van stocked with extra blankets and they really utilized the space nicely. Not to mention they were extremely pleasant to communicate with. Friendly, fast, and super accommodating with everything. My boyfriend left his watch in the car and they texted us and let us know and kept it until we picked it up. 10/10 would recommend this van, it has everything you need!!! :)

This was my second time renting this toy hauler. It was clean and functional. The host was easy to communicate with and receptive to changes in my schedule. Thanks
