General: Small (30-site) campground in Salt Point State Park. Although you will not have views of the ocean from the campground, you will hear it. 

Site Quality: Varied– some are level, but some are sloped, and most are spaced a very generous amount apart. There are no hookups for any site. We had reserved Site 10, but the pad was sloped in every direction so no matter how we maneuvered our van, we could not find a level spot. This site has ample room for two vehicles to park but would best be suitable for tent campers. We were able to move to Site 6, which was much better– level with a good long driveway. A picnic table, food box, and fire ring complete the site. 

There is also an overflow area, but this area is not reservable. Cost for camping in the overflow section is $30 (vs $35 in the developed campground) and while there are awesome views, it would not be good if it is very windy. Also, be aware the closest restroom is in the day-use area, and I do not know if this gets locked at night. 

Bathhouse: There are two bathhouses that serve the campground. The one closest to our site had two private separate toilet stalls and one outside sink with soap but no towel or other way to dry your hands so make sure to bring your towel. Cold water only. There is a sign prohibiting dishwashing in this sink but there is a water spigot and drain nearby. 

Activities: You can hike either north or south from the visitor center (only open on weekends during the summer). I don’t know what the south trail would have been like, but we were not disappointed in the north trail, which to go to Stump Beach was about 4.5 miles roundtrip from the campground. The wildflowers were beautiful in April and the trail either winds along the bluffs or can be made shorter by cutting inland. 

Other: A shoutout to the camp volunteers. They were available, friendly, and helpful. About the only thing keeping this from a five-star review is the challenge we had in Site 10 (and a few others looked like they might experience the same challenge).
