REVIEW updated as of latest stay Jan 2012
This was one of the first parks we stayed at in San Diego and continues to be one of our absolute favorite in the area. It's a public park run by the water district, but has all the feel of an upscale, yet very natural private park. When we're looking for green and space, this is where we stay.
Just updated our review of Santee Lakes with lots of new pics & details. This is one of the parks that is always on top of our list when we stay in San Diego area.



















WOW…looks like a wonderful Park. Not sure if we will ever get back to San Diego.
Oh I hope you do! It is indeed a great park.

on the list – we have headed north and decided to summer in the Northwest then move south so San Diego will have to wait till the fall or winter for us to see it…
Oh excellent! Are you guys heading to OR? I’ll keep track of you on your blog. Would love to meet-up if we get anywhere close.

We sold our house and moved into our 5th wheel on Monday! We are staying in Santee Lakes for a month or so. We’ll be hitting the road full time this fall. So far I’m loving Santee Lakes!
Congrats!! You’re starting exactly the same way we did. We spent our first couple of months in Santee lakes living in the rig before we hit the road. Enjoy your travels!

Are you also a vegan or veggie? I’m a plant based eater and wondered if we have that in common. Also I saw that you used to teach health classes. I’m a personal trainer and also teach fitness classes. And hey, that has a lot to do with health.
I eat alot of veggies and focus completely on whole foods, but no…I’m what you’d call paleo. I battled with weight most of my early life, so the classes that I taught were about weightloss. Very much into health in general and practice Yoga, strength training & sprints on a regular basis.

I hear ya, girl! I also battled with weight when I was younger, which is why I am now a trainer, helping other people. I exercise a lot too and LOVE Yoga!
Stayed here several times and agree with you, a great. well run park.
