My initial experience wasn’t great here because of the State of California website. Be sure to never follow the directions on the states website nor listen to the address on the automated number. The address listed is 52 Minutes from the actual location !! Also the map on there doesn’t accurately show the locations. If you can pay on arrival after you see, if you can’t you want spots in the 30s. Man was all of the above frustrating but after finally arriving the on site staff was actually amazing. Lisa in particular was so so helpful and made good on all the bad. She was attentive, reachable and treated us so well my review went from 1-2 stars back to 5. Call the site directly if you can because the state is clueless and helpless. Infact when I got to the wrong location the guy at the g

Don’t even think about it unless your idea of a relaxing day includes navigating boulders, driftwood, and ankle-breaking rocks. I’ve seen war zones with better sand. As for the hiking trail, it’s less of a

Great place to camp, not too busy and great views! Bit out of the way but there's also mountain bike trails all around the peninsula. Some mosquitos so bring bug spray.

Awesome place to camp. Other campsites near Bay Area are always full. Though this one is a little bit far away but definitely worthy of coming. The road might be too winding so need to drive very carefully and slowly. Many people would be here and play around so we feel very safe to stay. Overall I would like to come here again.
