Montecito-Sequoia Family Camp or Other All-Inclusive Resort with Activities for the Kids?
Are there any recent reviews on the Montecito-Sequoia Lodge Family Camp or other recommendations for all-inclusive resorts with kids' clubs? Our family spent a few days at Basin Harbor Club in Vermont with my parents and brother and his family this summer and my parents want to do something similar on the west coast next summer. I'm coming up short on similar resorts and am wondering how "rustic" the Montecito-Sequoia Lodge is. How are the new "luxury" cabins? How is the food? The city family camps are definitely too rustic for my parents. We'll have kids ages 2-7 in our group and are looking for someplace that provides three meals per day and has some sort of kids' camp.

UCSB has something like family camp, with a kids' camp on-site, but you stay in the dorms which I assume are not rustic. It's expensive though!
We love Montecito Sequoia Lodge. We haven't done the summer family camp as we go to the Berkeley Family Camp. But we go with friends to Montecito Sequoia Lodge for Winter Break or Presidents' Day weekend and we love it. The food is pretty good for a family camp. We have stayed in the lodge and the luxury cabins on different occasions. The luxury cabins are very nice and comfortable but we like staying closer to the action in the main dining room and game room when staying with friends with kids.

Family Vacation Center at UCSB. The dorms are not rustic, and adult beds are transformed into 'kings' with foam padding and zip ties. The staff is amazing, you are steps from the beach and the pool is on site. If you decide to go, share my user name!
