I have stayed at the Expo several times now, and I am not sure who the other reviewers are speaking of. I have yet to meet a friendly or helpful host. I travel for school/business and made a year worth of reservations in advance. They cancelled one month in the middle of the year, and then told me I did it. No. I did not (why would I?). This forced me to have to scramble for accommodations at the last minute during a busy month in Napa. As I said, I travel for business. I finish my business in Sacramento at around 5:00, then I have to go home, get my unit and travel to Napa. Twice I have pulled in after 9:00 to my RESERVED space. Both times I have been chastised, told I am "late" (to camping?!?!?!?), been called "you people," told they do not put numbers on the spaces for "people like me," so they can know when people came into the park. I have never met a camp host who was not friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I have never met a host who seemingly doesn't understand camping, and takes away from the inherent "relaxing" nature of the activity. If I was not in a situations that almost demands my staying there, I would not. I will never return to stay...

Mind you, no signs were posted against the use of cameras even! She then went on this long, presumptuous rant about how peoples' designs are stolen that way. I just played dumb because I didn't want to argue, but no one else complained to me personally about taking pictures.
Anyone who felt uncomfortable about it could have easily come up to me instead of being passive aggressive about it. Either that or the jewelry maker in question (who also runs the place) was just sticking up for people who didn't have an opinion against pictures being taken. Anyways, I had a great time, but the attitude...
Read moreIt was the only RV park I could find in Napa (In downtown Napa). There must be others right? Napa Valley Expo is definitely clean... And the staff was friendly and helpful but at the park itself there just isn't much to see or do. It is mostly a concrete parking lot with a few swaths of grass between the RV's However the RV park is very convenient and in the heart of Napa so I suppose you shouldn't be spending too much time in the RV anyway... I was going to give it 3 stars for the lack of amenities but because it is sooo clean and sooo...
