Uncrowded Gem with great Ojai views

All in all we like this campsite and will return. Our experience was fantastic mostly because the campground was empty (only campers Friday night, 2 other sites filled Saturday).  Views from upper campsites are beautiful (we stayed in site #14), and on a full moon the sound of coyotes cackling throughout the valley is a nice way to fall asleep.

For our purposes:

  • Dog Friendly: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
  • Toddler Friendly: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
  • Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pros:

  • Beautiful views
  • Not crowded 
  • Dog Friendly
  • Play area for kids
  • Clean bathrooms (portable bathrooms in some parts of campground)
  • Friendly rangers

Cons:

  • Water spigots are available but inconvenient for most sites.
  • Terrain is uneven for tent pads in many sites
  • No good dog friendly hikes directly accessible from camp ground (lots within a short drive)
  • Our site was poorly maintained. Broken glass all over, broken fire pit, lots of scattered branches.
  • Little bit of road noise, not too bad though.
