What to Know
Essential Information for a Smooth Stay at Our San Francisco RV Park
Before you set off for Treasure Island Mobile Home & RV Park, it’s helpful to know what to expect. We’ve compiled key details below—covering everything from booking procedures to nearby activities—to ensure your experience is hassle-free and enjoyable.
Making a Reservation
Securing your spot at our South San Francisco RV park is straightforward. Simply complete our online request, and our staff will confirm availability. Unlike some other locations, we don’t require lengthy applications or advance security deposits. For additional clarity or last-minute questions, feel free to call us before you arrive.
Arriving at the Park
Our property sits just off Hickey Boulevard at El Camino Real, making it easily accessible from major highways. If you’re heading south on I-280, exit at Hickey Blvd. and turn left. Coming from the north on I-280? Exit at Hickey Blvd. and turn right. Follow Hickey until you reach El Camino Real—pass through the intersection, and you’re here.
Once on-site, plan to arrive no earlier than 1:00 PM for check-in. Our team will guide you through the payment process, provide a map, and share any access codes you’ll need. If you want a city guide or tips on local attractions, just ask—our staff is happy to help.
Setting Up, Checking In, and Checking Out
Most guests prefer to handle their RV setups independently, but if you need a hand (especially if you’re new to RVing), our maintenance crew is ready during regular business hours. Check-out time is at noon. Should you decide to extend your stay, just call us at least an hour beforehand, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
We accept credit cards, checks, and money orders for payment. If you have additional vehicles beyond your RV, simply request a parking pass. Remember that unauthorized vehicles parked without a pass risk being towed.
Long-Term Storage & Parking Solutions
Planning to leave your RV here while traveling elsewhere or taking on a temporary work assignment? Our secure storage options make it easy. Store your rig with us, and when you return, reclaim your spot without the hassle of finding new accommodations.
