Never been. I have kids that are all under 12 and want to ride camp. Dirt bikes and small sxs. From Google earth there looks to be a riding area close by. Has anyone stayed there and is the area legally rideable near the campground or do you have to trail out a bit?
 
Yup stayed there a few times. Think back when it was a KOA property.

Nice to have hook ups and the pool. Not sure if the restaurant is still a thing.

Nice terrain to put around with the kids but it’s pretty rocky in some parts. You can put right out of camp onto plenty of legal riding areas. They say you can go all the way to Glamis but that wasn’t on my ideas. It’s on my to go there again though.
 
Riding is alright - and you can do it straight from the camp ground. Selling point for us was full hookups, restaurant, cabins for those without campers, and the hot tubs after a day of getting all dusty/dirty riding
 
We haven’t been in years but we really enjoyed it, ride right of the camp and you can stay down low and ride the desert or hop up the hill into the Chocolate Mountain area you can ride all the way over to I10 if you want, lots of canyons and wash’s in the mountains.restaurant was good when we were there last. Would go back again if we hadn’t changed up our play toys.
 
I think it's called Glamis North if we're talking about the same place.
There is a ton of riding but its pretty dusty. Take the kids to the bat caves.
 
Now named Palm Springs RV Park. I believe that off roading from the park is no more due to closures so best to call. Restaurant is closed as well so I am told.
 
Cal & RIoslyn are/were the owners of Glamis North, in Niland. Really nice folks. They may have taken on partners or sold....they were getting up there in age. Hense, the addition of Palm Spings RV Park to the name. Have not gone this year due to physical issues so can't confirm. The restaurant if I remember right hasn't been operating since the Cv19 closures plus Cal told us it's hard to keep a cook/chef employed locally that is only open for half a year.
Tons of rv camp spaces as well as a handful of park models.
You can tell it was a hip place back in its heyday but definitely shows it wear. They have 2 larger hot spring pools that they drain/refill after a few days and several large 2 person tubs you can fill from the hot spring. Also two larger pools they keep clorinated which is where the kids usually play. Riding trails are accessible "legally" with ohvs, both west towards the sea & bat caves created by San Andreas fault and eastward toward Chiriaco and/or Palo Verde, etc.
