What an incredible place! Campsites are in the midst of the massive redwoods so it’s always pretty shady and cool. There are 40ish sites (50/50 drive-in and walk-in), well spaced for a bit of privacy. Fairy rings (where the redwoods have grown up in a ring) and hollowed out tree trunks made awesome forts when we were kids. There are ferns growing all over the place, and brilliant yellow banana slugs cruising around in slow motion, and loads of mushrooms if you go in the right winter conditions (early season rain). This is a great spot any time of year. Even if it’s rainy, the redwood canopy has a way of drinking up the rain so that it becomes more of a drippy mist. There’s a creek and awesome trails around, just don’t step on the banana slugs. If the shade gets to be too… shady you can always drive down the road to the beach. Año Nuevo has a colony of Elephant Seals that pretty impressive to check out.

There are pit toilets as well as a bathroom with a flushing toilet more centrally in the campground.
