For $70 a night we Expected More!

Facilities are run down. This places needs a major make over! Bathrooms are dirty, showers are gross. Sinks to wash dishes are disgusting & right next to dumpsters. You have no privacy and sites are right on top of each other…you’re basically in a parking lot. Barking dogs right next to you can get pretty annoying pretty fast. NOT WORTH the $70 a night fee. I would only stay here here as a LAST resort

Beautiful and convenient

Anacapa campground is the ideal spot for a family. The terrain/layout is easy for small kids to ride their bikes and still keep an eye on them. Walking distance to the beach, eateries and a local brewery. Love it.
