Update on the Clean-up Project
Mission Bay RV Resort is completing the De Anza Cleanup and Improvement Project.
On July 13, 2022, the Coastal Development Permit was approved by the California Coastal Commission to remove the mobile homes. This includes:
- Asbestos abatement and the safe removal of 169 unsightly abandoned mobile homes,
- Clean-up of overgrown landscaping to create a more welcoming coastal surrounding,
- Enhance affordable public access to the coastline,
- Increase family-friendly recreational opportunities,
- Protect the natural environment,
- Add 150 interim campsites to De Anza Cove.
On November 14, 2022, Mission Bay RV Resort began the remediation and removal of the abandoned mobile homes. Following the removal, they will begin cleaning up the landscaping, and repairing and improving the bicycle/pedestrian trails. They will also be adding 147 temporary RV sites to the northeast corner.
As of March, 2023, all the mobile homes have been remediated and removed. The area is now being cleaned up, including the landscaping. Soon this area will be more available to the public. A total of 147 interim campsite will also be added to the area.

De Anza Clean Up and Improvement Project
Since 1969, generations of campers have come to Mission Bay to camp. The majority of campers are from San Diego and the surrounding area.
Both Campland on the Bay and Mission Bay RV Resort offers family-friendly camping to one and all. In 2019 the current management of Mission Bay Park pulled out of their contract, leaving the City in a jam. They would either have to close Mission Bay RV Resort and refund millions of dollars in advanced camping reservations or find a new management company to step in quickly.
The City of San Diego asked the management of Campland on the Bay to take over management of Mission Bay RV Resort in 2019, Campland’s management offered a win-win proposal. Campland on the Bay’s Management organization would clean up De Anza Cove, remediate the asbestos and safely remove 169 abandoned mobile homes and manage Mission Bay RV Resort. They also agreed to repair and open up the bike/pedestrian trail around De Anza Cove. The overgrown landscaping would also be clean up.
In return, Mission Bay RV Resort would get a rent credit to help with the expenses and add 150 interim campsites to Mission Bay RV Resort. This made sense as the infrastructure was already in place.
The City of San Diego unanimously agreed to the De Anza Clean-up and Improvement Project.
