DeAnza Springs

Hello Peeps!
We are on the road again, heading towards a reunion in Fredericksburg, TX. with a bunch of SanPeeps to do the wildflower/wine tasting/Trade Days touristy stuff that makes the Hill Country so much fun.
We loved our month long visit with daughter Melinda in her Santa Ana home,
despite her working her poor old parents near to death.
It was very satisfying to see her yard shape up and her house become more organized.
Plus Disney and a three day trip through Santa Ynez wine country were true highlights.
Last night and tonight we are stopping at DeAnza Springs, a really lovely clothing optional resort some 70 miles east of San Diego, just off I-8.
Check out their web site for great pictures. http://www.deanzasprings.com
We'll be back home after Fredericksburg...Sunday, April 18th.
Love 'ya!
Sue & Jim Z

Am anxious to hear your take on DeAnza Springs. Dick and Jean stay there don't they? Bet you loved being able to soak up the sun finally. Be careful on your trip home - we need you whole for the fun ahead in Fredericksburg.

Now that we've walked around the resort and checked out the facilities certain impressions have come up to the surface.

First, they have 500 acres so it's BIG. The RV sites are huge with each having a pad and picnic table. An indoor pool and an outdoor pool (tho both cool to cold), big hot tub, lovely pool deck and great pool-side furniture. A FULL SERVICE BAR! Nice cafe. However they don't seem to have much in the way of "living" rules. For instance several people have three or more dogs. Old trailers added to willy-nilly. Junk piled up near some homes. Some of the park models are uber fancy, some basic. There are extremes like Santa Claus' old RV to super fancy three level park models.

I love the statuary posed around the center pool/office area. Very classy! Friendly, roomy, nice facilities! Our library is much bigger, tho!

All in all, a very nice park worth visiting.

Thanks for the honest appraisal of DeAnza Springs. Hearing the pros and cons of any resort is a real advantage to all of us as we travel. I hope others will follow your example and post information about parks they visit. It can encourage or discourage others from visiting them. Every park has its pluses and minuses. It's nice to know what they are prior to visiting.
