Event Description

Get that VW Transporter ready for Bus City XVIII.

Held at Schoolhouse Canyon Campground in Guerneville, California, this is sure to be a family friendly event that you do not want to miss.

This year the event runs from Thursday May 14th - Sunday May 17,2026.

The campground opens up this weekend just for the VW Family and is closed to the general public, with that being said, this is strictly a VW Transporter and VW era campers only event. There are no reservations for this event, the sites are large and campsite sharing is encouraged. Never in the previous 17 years of this event has anyone ever been turned away due to lack of space.

Come out and enjoy a nod to a simpler time when a family could sit around a campfire and tell stories, swim in the river (private access), go fishing and have fun. This is a true heritage park, one of the last real tent campgrounds on the Russian River. Loud or obnoxious behavior will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave with no refund (never been an issue).

The Campground has clean bathrooms equipped with flush toilets, hand washing sinks, coin operated showers and located just outside the restrooms are dishwashing stations, and usb charging stations.

Comment by Bryce and Kathy on March 27, 2026 at 11:11am: Thanks... I was able to come up with one (using this year's logo, some basic information, and both a tinyURL as well as a QR code to direct people to all of the details here on VW Camper Family).

I'll pass these out on Sunday to all the Split Buses at the SOTO meet; love to get the number of Split Buses up to as much, if not more than Bays and Vanagons!

Thanks, -Bryce

PS: Yes, Kathy and I will be serving up Fondue again this year to everyone who drops by our campsite on the Saturday evening.
