Los Pinos RV Trailer Park | Established Campground

March 19th, 2024 by PerfectAdventures.com

Our 2nd stay here on return drive north. Easy check in. Cost 302 pesos for Toyota 4runner with RTT & 2 people. Both banos & showers now open. Outdoor sink in corner of property. Plenty of flat grass to camp on. Only place in Tepic we found to camp at. Good location & totally safe.

February 22nd, 2024 by kekkel2004

Great little park, they give two night free if you book for a week. The red Centro-Xalisco bus comes straight past and can take you into town for 10 pesos. comes very often

January 4th, 2024 by PerfectAdventures.com

It’s like a little oasis in the middle of the city. Plenty of flat space to camp & trailers can turn around in there. One clean banos & water spigots nearby. Good place to camp for a night.

Camping sympa pour se reposer après avoir pris le ferry. Il y a de l’herbe et des arbres.
390 pesos pour un truck camper avec eau, dump, électricité et wifi.

December 1st, 2023 by Potholesandpictures

Wonderful stay. Very peaceful and quiet. Owners are great people. There is a cafe and some eateries within walking distance. We particularly liked stopping here after our long ferry ride and rested for several days.

easy to find thanks to all the comments
perfect place has all you need , and very friendly staff.
nice nature with plenty of fruit trees like mangos, bananas, and lemons.
oxxo, coffee shop, restaurants and some other shops in close proximity
definitely one of the best campgrounds I've stayed at on my journey
paid 285 pesos for a van
bigger rigs cost a little more

June 16th, 2023 by fleet_vanjeep

Beautiful rv park with lots of spaces, green areas, electricity, sewage dump and hot showers.
285 mxn pesos the night. Kind of far from downtown but well worth the extra distance to stay. Quiet and peaceful. There are firefly’s at night

June 15th, 2023 by fleet_vanjeep

It was a pleasant surprise! Beautiful park with lots pf trees. The staff is super nice. 15 minutes bike ride to the historic center. Decent wifi.

June 7th, 2023 by lemonlaw

Great little park. Staff is so nice. Shaded spots. Surprisingly quiet although right off the main road. Heed the 13 foot maximum and then you are good to go. Clean bathrooms, nice people and would definitely recommend.

May 19th, 2023 by miroandval

Nice place, relatively quiet considering the location. High trees with shade. Price for camping depends on vehicle. For a van we paid $MX 285.

May 2nd, 2023 by kimberlyr6

Still going strong! The attendant was nice, there was only one other camper, it was nice to be close to stores and great street tacos a 2 min walk away. Centro is an 8 minute Didi away. Our dogs were able to be off leash the entire time. Thanks to everyone else, we found it quickly. We had no problems getting in with a 22' C Class RV. Great water pressure from the spigot and healthy electricity (verified with my smart surge protector). The wifi wasn't stable enough to use for work.

March 24th, 2023 by The Irish Rambler

Very green little campsite with 12 spots. We paid $350 pesos for the site- no electricity or water. There are showers and toilets. Felt very safe. The gate closes 8pm and opens 6:30am
Wi-Fi was good.
We did hear the odd train through the night and then cockerels very early in the morning (6-6:30am) but yet I felt really well rested and enjoyed hearing the birds and watching the squirrels acrobatics
All in all a grand place

February 22nd, 2023 by steinzeitreise

Yes! It’s IN the shopping center! Don’t give up! It’s there!!! See my picture attached 😊

February 22nd, 2023 by lougazebo

beau terrain en pleins coeur de la ville, situé derrière un petit centre commercial qui donne l'impression d'être en dehors de la ville.
Nous y avons passer la nuit entièrement seuls.

February 14th, 2023 by Blue Butterfly Travels

Really nice spot and surprisingly quiet and peaceful for being right in the city. As reported, full hookups and wifi comes and goes. Bathroom/showers clean, hot water, lower water pressure but not the worst by a long shot. We really appreciated all the beautiful blooming trees and fruiting plants and also a big, wild honey bee hive in the tree next to us.

January 30th, 2023 by conchscooter.blogspot.com

285 pesos a night. Clean fully equipped toilets with hot showers. Dump stations water faucets and uncertain electrical outlets . WiFi comes and goes but is reasonable usually. Eduardo manages the place and his wife can do laundry and he can order purified water for delivery if you ask him. There is vehicle traffic from the street but the campground is grassy and shaded and very peaceful with high walls and no insects bugging you. A peaceful retreat in a busy city.

January 22nd, 2023 by exploring509.de

nice place. we paid 340 Pesos today for one night. no difference if dry camping or not.

January 22nd, 2023 by fcoromme

Muy buen lugar. Espacios bien definidos con servicios, agua, electricidad (15ah). 285 pesos por noche, vale la pena. Nos quedamos 2 noches y dormimos perfectamente bien. También cuentan con lavandería sin costo adicional.

January 11th, 2023 by arvana.life

A peaceful oasis in Tepic. Perfect spot after a night on the Baja ferry. Grassy and lush parking area with with full hookups and plenty of space. 13’ clearance to get into the place.

December 22nd, 2022 by nursewendy60

lovely little RV Park in town, beautiful oasis in a city. owner is very friendly, speaks a little English, very accommodating. lots are level with cement pad, h2o, electrical and dump at site. entrance 13 feet with a gate that is locked at 9 pm. directly behind OXXO and the most delicious restaurant. Wifi is great. We were the only ones here.

December 11th, 2022 by UnViajeSinPlan

Highly recommended. Beautiful well maintained campground, gated. They have all hook ups and WiFi. We have an Sprinter van and they charged us $285 pesos per night. We spent 3 days at this place just to relax.

October 13th, 2022 by Playaseeker

Here is current phone number 3111330444 - edouardo - it is excellent we will stay again next week

October 8th, 2022 by andy.everett

Safe place to stay if you’re passing through Tepic. Nice guy who owns it and hot showers.

October 7th, 2022 by Anna&Irina

It's a nice place in the green in the middle of the city. You don't notice anything of the city. The site is fenced in and monitored by video. We felt comfortable and safe. The owners are very friendly.

September 22nd, 2022 by karlis.lipsnis

Nice little oasis to stay. We stopped for a shower, but found out that we have some technical issues with our car, so stayed for a night. There was a guy working there they was really helpful, did hold a flashlight while I was working on engine and got us taxi to ride to parts store. They also have some rooms for rent, did not stay and ask for a price, but they did look pretty good!

September 21st, 2022 by Warden & Ariane

This is a very nice place to stay. Many places in the shady. Very friendly owners!
The entrance is a little hard to find. I edited a picture. Entrance is below the red arrow.

September 15th, 2022 by fred+emmy

Very nice campground with full hook-up, hot showers, good Wifi, very quiet and friendly owners. Fred & Emmy

September 5th, 2022 by stephanie.dominick

A little oasis in the middle of a city. The family is totally friendly and helpful and can even speak a little English. There were hot showers and a super clean bathroom. We felt very comfortable and safe here. the campground has a big gate, plenty of shaded areas, portable water, electricity and WiFi was also available. We paid 285 MXN per night for our van and two people. if you stay 7 nights you only pay for 5.

April 21st, 2022 by conchscooter.blogspot.com

Google maps can locate the entrance to the campground next to the Oxxo with ease. The entrance has a clearance of 13 feet and it’s a broad east drive into the camping area. Each spot has electricity, 15 amps, a water faucet and a dump site with a large cement pad for camp furniture under broad shade trees.
The bathrooms are spotless with seat toilet paper and hot water in the showers.
The WiFi works. Staff are friendly and helpful for the campers as well as the renters in the apartments.
Highly recommended. April 2022.

April 13th, 2022 by cptnzodiac

we did not like the place. There are many fruit trees there and the fallen fruit attracted countless cockroaches. Every place was full of them (but not the bathrooms). While we were away a dog left a pool of pee on our chair. In another corner was a large pile of feces for days. Payed 285 pesos per night (1 vehicle, 2 adults).

February 21st, 2022 by juliengrignon29

Camping très joli comme dit dans les autres commentaires. Nous avons payé 342 pesos par nuit. Très facile de se rendre en ville à pied et en bus. Possible de laver et sécher son linge (fil et sèche linge). Wifi très correcte. Eduardo est très accueillant et se soucis du bien être des voyageurs. La douche et les toilettes sont anciens mais fonctionnent très bien. Un bon endroit où se poser pour respirer et visiter.

February 18th, 2022 by convosviajo

Nice small rv Park, full service, in center of town, shadow and green grass, 285 $mx x night 😉 van and 3 People.

February 16th, 2022 by FarisandLisa

285mxp per night for two people in sprinter van.
We stayed for four nights. No one was there during the week. Very peaceful and the showers were hot. The owner is very nice. A great stop for us to get reorganized. The wifi was strong and night and in the mornings once everyone left the office buildings. It was weak most of the day.

November 20th, 2021 by kittiescometoo

Can't believe there is no one else here. This place is magical! Worth stopping at regardless where you are heading. Just big enough to fit our 29' trailer comfortably. $440 a night. Is it worth it - you bet water, electric, sewage disposal, hot, clean showers and iffy wifi. We slept like babies amongst the trees. Will definitely stop here again in April on our way home.

March 24th, 2021 by paclightrec

It’s still here!
Great place.
Dog friendly as long as you pick up the poop.

November 11th, 2020 by Smart as a Goose

The people very kind. The place is immaculate. Cannot believe you're in a big city.

October 20th, 2020 by rambling elsewhere

Had to camp here for a night. Too late to ride out of town.Lovley spot next to a nice cafe.
Fidel is friendly. Place was empty which was kind of of sad.It's well kept.
I had decent wifi,felt safe,friendly owner,didn't get a hot shower. It probably isn't worth his while turning on the gas heater for 1 camper.
It was so hot I preferred a cold shower anyway.
Definitely worth coming here.

February 5th, 2020 by Bruce in Mexico

nice little green patch in the city. it was our plan b and more than we wanted to pay ($285 for a truck). The family were super friendly and helpful. Hot showers, wifi. one other rig. nice trees.

December 17th, 2019 by Travel with Kevin and Ruth

We like the spot, but can't justify the ridiculous pricing structure. Our relatively small 28' Class A was 418 pesos per night. I mentioned that we didn't even plug into electric, but there was no negotiating. Hot showers were not working. Good fast WiFi. We won't return, but only because the price was double what it should be for our rig.

December 10th, 2019 by mkmortimer

Just as everyone says, it’s a gem! We paid $285 a night- Very clean bathroom with hot shower. Fast internet

December 7th, 2019 by mario_chandler

A Fabulous Oasis. We stopped there for just the one night, immaculate grassy area, with level concrete pads, hot showers, clean bathrooms.
Highly recommended

November 30th, 2019 by risinghearttribe

It’s all been said before! We stayed 2 nights and had the oasis to ourselves over the weekend. Beautifully manicured property with excellent shade trees. Nice clean bathrooms. Don’t know status of the hot water. WiFi seems to work sometimes. Groundskeeper is very friendly and accommodating. A great stopover oasis. You can forget you are in a city aside from background noise.

May 28th, 2019 by legrandnicolas

nice RV park with hot showers, wifi , near the town but very quiet and beautiful.
we stayed here 2 nights and paid 120 pesos per night with a ⛺.

May 14th, 2019 by jacuzie

great spot cool and comfortable stayed 3 nights can't miss hot showers and hook ups close to all!

May 3rd, 2019 by les3moustiquaires

Endroit très tranquille, nous sommes seul sur le terrain. Nous préférons payer un peu plus durant la fin de semaine pour avoir cette tranquillité. Avec tous les services classe C. 350 pesos (25$ Can.). Chaque terrain à son arbre (on apprécie l'ombre) et les toilettes sont très propres (douche disponible). Les prix varient d'une classe A-B ou C ou simplement camping. Le coût d'un Uber pour se rendre au centre-ville est d'environ 50 pesos, 3,55$ Can.

February 26th, 2019 by Xplore2Gether

Nothing to add that others have not said. An oasis. We are on two motorcycles and parked the bikes on the cement slab and setup tent on the grass. One other couple here in a van camper night we were here. As someone else commented, the GPS coordinates given in original listing will incorrectly route you (via Google maps) to a very bumpy (no fun on a loaded motorcycle) dead end street that butts up to the brick wall around the campground. When that happened to us, remembered that the pictures showed an OXXA store near entrance, so I searched for nearest OXXA and re-routed to that and it put us in the right spot. I have updated coordinates for this location to a point in the strip mall parking lot, and I checked google routing and you should be ok using these coordinates - it will bring you to the right place. Hard to believe you are in the right place, turning into a strip mall parking lot, but that is where the entrance is!

February 11th, 2019 by Thunder Road

Ditto to all the post below. Took taxi to central off town for 80 pesos/50 back. a great place.

February 11th, 2019 by Thunder Road

Great spot - agree with other's comments. We took a taxi to the city center and for 80 pesos in and 50 out (?). Lots of fun.

January 12th, 2019 by truckhuis.org

Entrance as described before.
Be careful our GPS wanted us to drive in from the back. There iis no back entrance!
Sites as described, very shady under trees.
Before choosing site check where your electrical connection is.

In the middle of the busy, cacophonous city of Tepic, Nayarit, Mx, you wouldn't think Los Pinos, a quiet, restive park to spend the night, would even exist. ¡De nuevo, la magia de México! This is a beautiful place to spend the night, and we were the only ones here!
Exquisitely maintained, full of citrus trees (lima dulce), exotic plants, and giant nopal cactus. Fidel and his wife Charlote are very friendly and accommodating, including troubleshooting and weak WiFi signal. Water pressure a bit weak except when the pump is on. As others have mentioned, you enter a mini-mall and go under an archway. Clearance 13 ft. We had no problem with our truck camper. All sorts of cafes, restaurants, pizza parlors, and convenience stores within easy walking distance. Well worth the minor hassle of driving through Tepic to reach the park. Fidel and his wife can use the business.

Great place!
Quiet, well maintained!
We paid $280 pesos for the night

December 19th, 2018 by latitude127

Very nice place in the middle of the city. Paid 280 pesos/night. All the places have electricity and water. We filled our water tank with it and didn't fell ill ;) the owner takes really care of this place!

November 16th, 2018 by southboundseahags

Amazing oasis in the middle of a huge city. The directions are incorrect. Stay on the boulevard and look for Luna Lima plaza. The entrance is in there. It’s hard to find but worth it. I am attaching a pic of the plaza. It’s the only entrance.

November 2nd, 2018 by elod.94

Great spot ! We were alone. They give us a lamp and wash the restrooms for us. Very friendly! electricity and water next to the spot. a lot of trees. Paid 280 pesos. You have to enter in the plaza.

September 15th, 2018 by nomadenleben.ch

We found the RV Park as described. We were the only guest. The manager doesn't speak English, but we were able to communicate with him. The RV Park is on a nice lawn. Since it was very wet our RV got stuck. The manager hat to tow us out with his pickup.

August 13th, 2018 by an86carrera

This is the entrance to Los Pinos RV Trailer Park to help others find it easily. Google maps sends you around the back street instead of here.

February 20th, 2018 by Rat Race Refugees

Beautiful little city campground. High walls. New green grass. Clean bathrooms and showers. Quiet for the city. Van 280 pesos/ noche.

December 17th, 2017 by bootsandcoffee.com

We arrived to find out if that the RV Park was temporarily closed due to a recent re-sodding of the grounds. We were able to negotiate 100 pesos to stay the night in the parking area that included no services. We did have use of the WiFi

October 12th, 2017 by edward.moseley

I don't know what happened to the friendly owner from the other reviews! One of the employees was here instead and quoted us 285 pesos or 15usd a night for full hookups for our van. We were able to get him down to 180 with the promise that we were not going to use electricity, but he was very reluctant. He "turned on" the boiler for the showers and told us to wait for it to heat up. The showers were still cold. Then we saw he had put the boiler on the lowest setting so we went ahead and turned it up ourselves! The bathrooms weren't as clean as the other reviews stated. And the WiFi was pretty intermittent. Several customers from the plaza used the parking lot next to the building, which made me question the security because cars were coming and going with no one watching. But the plaza is fairly "upmarket" so it's probably safe enough. The park itself is very pretty, but I hope that nice owner is still around somewhere for future campers!

October 10th, 2017 by rhuntting

Very nice grassey, shady place with full hookups. Entrance in in center of strip mall. Management is very nice.

September 22nd, 2017 by yannverbier

Hidden GEM in Tepic. Everything is as described above. Paid 200 pesos per night for full hookups on my 25 feet rig. Ideal spot where to crash for a few nights.

August 5th, 2017 by Terra Trekkers

What a fantastic place. We paid $150pesos for a truck camper and no hook-ups (2 adults, 2 children). Plenty of space for the kids (and a friendly buddy Mateo to play with). The kids ate sugar cane and mangoes from the trees and swung in the hammocks. Spots are nicely shaded. Lovely family.

July 12th, 2017 by partonslavieestbelle

Great place for large rigs (13ft clearance)! Don't follow GPS; enter at centre of the commercial strip...behind is peace and quiet!

June 14th, 2017 by hinter-dem.horizont.net

Emir, the owner, is really nice and helpful (he speaks hardly any English though). Fast and reliable WIFI on site (we downloaded more than 3 GB of data). Even though it's just off a busy main road it's surprisingly quiet at night. Paid only MEX$ 95 for two people in a truck camper without any bargaining and the use of the washing machine was free (there was no hot water in the showers though).

January 31st, 2017 by francoisviano

Très calme propre parfait pour faire étape

January 4th, 2017 by deschenesisabelle1

Great place, shower is clean, location very central and the manager very helpful. Take the bus Centro on the other side of the street in front of the Oxxo to go downtown. To go back it's quite the same bus with Centro writing and Xalisco. Ask the manager (owner nephew) to indicate you the mountain very near (I think it's cerro the San Juan on Mex 15) that you can hike. About 45 minutes to go up, it's a rewarding hike but the view worth it! During our stay we noticed they are building a very long bike trail along Mex15 with a lot of small bridges. Nice addition to Mexico, bikes trails are not a big thing here!!!

December 18th, 2016 by viva-panamericana

Friendly Owner. Nice and shady sites behind the stores. Showers and toilets are ok. We payed 255 Pesos (Price for a van). It seams to be the only possibility to camp in town.

November 4th, 2016 by yachtwillow

Lovely place! Very hard to find yes, but follow the instructions and you will get there. Our GPS took us down a back street and we got in a real pickle - there was no street at the end. So ignore if yours does the same. Go to the main boulevard only. Nice flat spots, beautiful trees making it cool and really nice staff. Loved this place.

August 29th, 2016 by traum-leben.jetzt

After the description of the way its easy to find. We felt very safe. Nice shady and grassy spots with full hook up. Clean bathrooms with hot shower, everything is very clean. 375pesos for our 25feet Motorhome for two adults and two kids, very pet friendly. Fast wifi, uncomplicated. easy walkable to town, good spot on our way.

April 15th, 2016 by The Pin Project

New management. New prices. They asked for 255 pesos for a campervan. They literally raised the prices by 100-150%. Very nice place though! We never stayed there. Entrance from the main avenue through the driveway.

March 18th, 2016 by sunny

This place is great - essentially a well kept large yard - its simple but clean bathrooms, hot shower water, pretty solid wifi, super cool with our dog and didn't mind us letting her run around off leash when not too many people were around. I cant say enough good things about the owners - Mario and his family are SOO nice - they even let us use their personal washing machine to do two loads and offered to help us out with a lock we were installing on our rig. The location is convenient to town and you can flag down a super cheap cab right out front where there is also an oxxo and two cafes. It is a little strange that a truckful of policia come eat lunch and nap here every day for about three hours but they never bothered us and only waved hello and goodbye.

December 10th, 2015 by fabianarnold

Beautiful place with lots of spaces for small or big rvs. Paid 150 pesos for a night. Great wifi, hot showers and very friendly staff. Some nice bars/restaurants nearby. Definitely worth staying there!!

November 3rd, 2015 by Nomadic Year

150 pesos per night. Very nice, clean, secure. The owners brought some fruits from their garden for us. We were the only visitors that night.

October 28th, 2015 by uyarak.ch

Nice little RV park, very friendly owner, entrance is a little bit tricky to find. M$150

October 25th, 2015 by Twogarysonetruck

Good, quiet safe spot. Friendly owners, nice bathrooms, great wifi. Directions that the other review gave are very helpful. Saw some other notes about the cops that show up, it seems like this is where they come for their lunch break. Never bothered us. Paid 200 pesos a night.

September 21st, 2015 by nicknameinternational.com

An awesome RV Park in the city. Great bathrooms with hot showers and awesome Internet. (5mbs from the office) We are the only ones here and paid 200 pesos. Lots of grass with level spots and they also have friendly puppies. I found it easy to find after reading the other comments on where to turn into.

March 15th, 2015 by A vagabond's tale

Friendly hosts, very clean, fast WiFi and nice shady areas to park. We found it easily enough with previous directions. We paid $150m for 2 people.

February 27th, 2015 by Wake the Dead Diaries

The directions already posted are spot on...drive into the horseshoe driveway at the oxxo. Friendly, clean, strong wi-fi. We paid $150 pesos.

December 20th, 2014 by Snow to Sand

Clean, friendly, and a beautiful campsite. Luckily we had the campground to ourselves. Its located in the city, but makes you feel like your in the jungle. Definitely the place to be. Campsite is through the arch of a shopping center, so its a little hard to find. The price was $150 pesos.

November 2nd, 2014 by stevenwormald

Difficult to find but followed directions of previous visitor and got here. Entrance arch is tight for high or long vehicles. Once inside the site is very pleasant with washroom and all necessary hook ups. Cost 200peso for 1 night. Good wifi available.

October 28th, 2014 by adventureornothing.me

This campground has a really nice, park like setting. There is a wall surrounding and it is gated, it feels very safe and secure.The family that runs the place is super friendly, and the hot shower and bathrooms are some of the nicest we've had in Mexico so far. We also had the federal police show up and hang out while we made dinner but they we're just resting, and didn't approach us at all. We were the only campers here during our stay.

September 29th, 2014 by cadillac_demille

This RV Trailer Park was difficult to find off the main Boulevard Tepic-Xalisco, but it turned out that is because the entrance is in a commercial Plaza (InterPlaza) beside a OXXO (and across the street from Pemex 7989). The park itself has a clearance of 13 feet to get into, but once inside there are about 12 nice grass spots. Each spot has a leveling pad and a cement pad for tables/chairs/cooking etc. There is a small washroom with running water, flush toilets (with toilet seats) and a shower stall. Electricity, Water and Dumping is also located at each site. There is also a small hotel on the property, but it looks a little run-down. Large trees at each site offer splendid cover for all that can fit through the entrance. It was a little sketchy that shortly after we arrived, a truck full of loud Federales showed up, faces covered, big guns and all. We may find out however that they are just here to use the facilities and showers as they were at another location in Villahermosa. We figured that the RV park "may not" risk getting a bad review if we get hassled, but you never do know... after all - these guys are supposed to protect one and all.... Right?
