If you are traveling in your RV along Highway 1 or exploring southern California, you more than likely have Disneyland California on your list of places to go. In fact, many of us who enjoy the RV lifestyle have California on our list. And even though Disneyland is right in the heart of the urban LA suburb of Anaheim, there are a couple of great options for RV parks near Disneyland. So we’ve gathered a list of some of the top RV parks near Disneyland where you can stay and play! From private RV parks, luxury parks, RV parks on the beach and even a couple state and local parks where you can camp for a great value and just a short drive away from Disneyland.
Note: If you are looking for Disney’s RV Park called Fort Wilderness, then that is actually in Disney World Florida…not Disneyland California. Click here to read our Disney’s Fort Wilderness Campground post for details about that park specifically.

More To Do in Southern California
Making a trip to southern California usually involves more than just visiting Disneyland. Even when we make a trip primarily to visit Disney, we can’t help but explore other areas in LA and the nearby coast because there is just SO much to see and do in the LA area!
We enjoy stopping off at the Santa Monica Pier, or enjoying Newport or Huntington Beaches. There’s also the famous Hollywood area, markets in downtown LA, and of course other theme parks such as Universal Studios and Knotts Berry Farm.
One of the reasons that we love RV travel is that we have more freedom to travel at our own pace and stay in different locations. When in LA, we have stayed at really nice RV parks and resorts, but we’ve also stayed at park on the beach and even some local and public parks where camping can be really cheap. In fact, these local park campgrounds are probably some of the most budget-friendly options you can find in southern California!
No matter the type of RV or trailer or camper that you may have…or even if you are tent camping, you’ll find here on our list that there are some really great places to camp in and around LA that are convenient to Disney and so many other fun things to do.

RV Parks Closest to Disneyland!
Anaheim RV Park
This is our favorite places to stay while visiting Disneyland in California. This Disney-themed updated RV park is easily located near the entrance of Disneyland, which is great if you are trying to catch those early or late park hours or need to run back to your RV for a break or check on your pet before heading back in for the fireworks.
This RV Park has all the amenities you could ask for. Laundry, wifi, clubhouse with free coffee, pool and hot tub, and a small dog walking area. They even offer dog walking services, if you want them to take out your pooch during the day to give a break (although, we usually take Hana to Camp Bow Wow nearby in Anaheim for a full day of fun at daycare).

They also sell Disney Park tickets here too and it is a stop on the public transportation if you don’t want to drive into Disney and park. If you miss the fireworks at the park, no worries. You can easily see them from the RV Park. Overall, we really enjoy this park and the friendly people. We’ve stayed a few times!
Anaheim Harbor RV Park
Anaheim Harbor is in a fantastic location close to Disneyland. The RV Park is actually walking distance to Disneyland, which is fantastic because you don’t have to worry about parking and it’s super convenient to go back and forth if you need to.

This is also a great park to be able to enjoy the Disneyland fireworks at night too.
This is a clean, well-maintained RV park that has full hookups, a heated swimming pool, laundry room, showers, and internet access. There’s also a mini market for little things you might want to purchase as well as a 5-hole putting green (Josh’s fave)! And guests can enjoy a nice gazebo area with grills and firepits too as well as a clubhouse with TVs and more.
Orangeland RV Park
Have you ever stayed on an orange farm? Orangeland RV Park is a beautiful RV Park located near Anaheim and Los Angels. This park claims to be the highest rated park in the area and is great for all sizes of RVs. In season many of the sites have orange trees you can pick your morning oranges from. That doesn’t sound too bad.
The park has the feel of a warm and friendly family-run business, built in 1972 and the same family still owns it! The park has pull-through sites, full hookups, a spa and large heated swimming pool, as well as free wifi and cable TV. This is a pet-friendly park and they have a dog walk area and even a dog washing station!
