Napa County's EXPO is different. It is clean, has paved roads and campsites, and is nicely landscaped. It is also within walking distance of downtown Napa and several other spots near downtown. Frankly, the only negative is that it backs up against a busy highway and is it a bit expensive. I stay here every time I come to Napa to visit my son and his family.
There is a bathhouse and small laundry here, even if most units are self-contained and have their own facilities. All sites are full-hookup, which means water, electric, and sewer at each site.
If you are so inclined, there is bingo here every Friday night! Parking lot really fills up on bingo night.
Other fairgrounds buildings can be rented out for special functions.
This field is where they shoot fireworks every 4th of July. During the Napa fires, they used this field to park their heavy equipment, which really created deep ruts and other issues. So, they have been adding gravel and packing it down. I hope they pave it when they get done.
This is the main fairground's roadway. Obviously, you can't drive or park there during the fair, but there are several buildings that are rented out for banquets or other events.
Need to make some wine? You can buy bottles and corks and also rent things like a wine press and other equipment. They also sell beer-making equpment is you prefer to make that. http://www.napafermentation.com/
There is also a model railroad club in the EXPO. Usually it is open for visitors on Friday evening, but unfortunately, it has been evicted by the Napa EXPO Board and are fighting to save their facility. Also, some of the club members drive the Wine Train in Napa. http://www.nvmrc.org/
So, if you are an RVer and choose to go to Napa, the EXPO RV Park is really the nicest and most convenient place within at least 30 miles.
