Can you charge an EV here? Yes · 50-amp

The 50-amp full-hookup sites can charge an electric truck at the pedestal, about 9.6 kW at 40 amps, with room to dial the current down and run the camper air conditioning at the same time. We plugged in here.

Notes

We went all out and got the premium site for the end-of-year celebration with the Airstream group, and it did not disappoint: endless propane for the grill, good views, and comfortable patio chairs. It's a good location where you can bike ride to the bay. The pool area is so nice, they have a restaurant on site, a group meeting room available for groups, and an arcade room. It also has cabins, so if you're traveling with people that don't have RVs, it's perfect. Private showers and bathrooms, which is a must for my 10 rating. Highly recommend.
