<p>California State Parks wants to thank our park visitors for helping us keep our parks and environment clean. In 2018, State Parks installed new RV dump station collection systems at ten state park units as part of a pilot program to help us protect the environment and are added amenities for our visitors. </p> <p>Following the success of the initial pilot program in 2018, an additional eleven park units have been added to the program. The service is available for campers, day-use or transient visitors for $10-$20 per use, depending on the location. Please note that visitors with current reservations arriving on or after April 13, 2021, who are interested in using the RV dump stations may be required to pay the use fee. The price per campsite for these state parks does not include the use of a dump station. View the following link: <a href="https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=1029">Camping Information</a></p>

Peaceful and gorgeous view
Love waking up to the beach. It’s close to everyone but it seemed like we were alone because everyone that camped there was really quiet!

Basic but good campground
Morro Bay is a great place and we enjoyed it a lot. The campground is not far from the town (perfect biking distance) which was great. The campground itself is a large flat area with campsites. Not a lot of privacy. Coin showers are a little bit outdated

Oldie but a Goodie
We're working full-timers with a truck and trailer. We stayed here for five days, most of which were at 185 with no hookups and one of which was site 1 with electric and water. There's a nice variety of sites here, with everything a little bit different. If equipment were no object, or we were staying shorter, we'd choose 125 or one of its neighbors. These are in a eucalyptus grove with the golf course behind, and so a little bit secluded and quieter.
The campground itself could use a facelift, with fading signs and some potholes in the road. Let's hope the most recent improvement—a $10 pay-by-card dump station—helps fund some of those upgrades. Can't speak to the token showers or other amenities. We saw a few eucalyptus that had fallen recently, and another that fell the day before we left. Consider camping toward the middle of the lower loop if that sort of thing worries you.
Highlights for us were the nearby boardwalk (an excellent half-mile loop for birding and strolling), the view from the nearby hotel's restaurant, and everything about the little café adjacent to the campground. If we golfed, I'm sure that the course would have impressed, too.
Easy five stars, even with the rain we got.
