Moss Landing KOA Express

Easy access, level paved spots. Restrooms spotless. Check-in friendly and cookies a plus! Walk to the beach, feel the breeze.

Express it is named possibly due to the small number of sites. 46 I believe. That is an attraction for me. Situated off highway 1 and surrounded by the marina is very appealing for us. Reservations were made over the phone with Liz. She did a nice job of getting us in for the following day. Check in was with Ben. Friendly and in formative, he met us at our site and gave us some tips as we backed in. Also, Ben offered us 2 big locks to use at no charge for our$$$$ E-Bikes and some Otis Spunkmeyer cookies, a nice touch. Easy walk into the marina area or onto the beach. It was quiet at night. Occasional sounds from Highway 1 in the daytime. I really can't say anyhing I didn't like. Maybe a wider site would be nice but appreciated the clean concrete pads. We will be back for sure.

Moss Landing CA. We love this small town and have stayed here several times. Campground is nicely located and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. There is a great bird sanctuary where you can ride your bike or hike around. Seals barking out you door. Fun.

We stayed here for a week due to it's proximity to the beach and Monterey/Santa Cruz. This park is very well cared for, and management responsive. Showers, laundry and store are all clean and well maintained. Sites are close together but paved. Beach is super close and sea life plentiful. Surfing beaches very nearby. We visited in the off season and most local shops were closed, but the fresh seafood and coffee shops were open. Other shopping is a drive away. Sites are tight but paved.

This KOA is cozy, with small sites, no pool, no frills. The shower rooms are big and in good shape. The beach and marina are easy walks from the park. You can hear sea gulls and sea lions at your site. What a charming location! Well worth it if you want to be near Monterey-Carmel.

Since the office was closed, I was unable to ask any questions and get a real time answer. Bummer. I got back on the road.

Great little park. Clean, well maintained, organized. Would come back.

Nice place for us to stop, shower and do laundry. Cool area as well.

Great little campground. Not very big, full hookup, laundry, bathrooms okay.

Free bike locks to borrow. Recommend locking bikes up.

Close walk over bridge to beach. We love The Whole Enchilada restaurant you can walk to!

Bikes to beach and it was cold and windy, but nice and clean, big waves, and we saw sealions out playing:)

Right beside KOA are whale watching tours!

Sites are small, but considering the size of the entire campground, they were big enough.

Pricey to stay here.

Went to check in and they wouldn’t let us stay. Apparently they do not allow RTTs in this camp ground. This was our first time with KOA. They have them everywhere so thought it would be worth a try. Guess those aren’t our type of campground.

Moss Landing RV park is a small, tight park close to Salinas Beach. Lots of great food close by. Cell and WiFi have been ok to good this past week, with a couple nights not being able to connect or stay connected. 20-30 drive to downtown Santa Cruz or downtown Monterey. Lots of trails, hiking, kayaking available. One of our favorite RV parks while traveling in this area.

Park is well maintained easy access to sites several cool places to eat close by

The two ladies than ran the camp were amazing. After renting space the walked down and help guide us in and arrange. The area was very well kept and extremely clean. Noise level was very, very low. Laundry area and showers were super clean. Great place to stay while traveling HWY 1.

Moss Landing KOA Express is a small campground for fully contained RV's. Very clean but sites are small and meant to be a stop over or a place to sleep while enjoying the area. Moss Landing is a must not miss area. Lots to do. Don't miss exploring the Elkhorn Slew. Kayaking or take a guided tour by experienced guid. See Sea Otters and tons of birds. Great restaurants within walking distance.

Overall this place was nice, very clean and friendly staff. However the spots are Small! Our 40’ double expando barely fit and you had to go into the neighboring sites just to access your hook ups etc. Waste hook up is inches from our picnic table.

There are no real amenities at this park and it holds less then 50 campers. This is a fine stop over for a night, but no place to stay for long.

It’s close to the harbor, and the beach.

Level, concrete pads. Spacing is tight. We had an end space with a nice patch of grass. Small space to walk dogs.

Campground is directly adjacent to the parking lot and marina from which multiple boats sail for whale watching trips. You can also rent kayaks nearby to kayak in the calm waters where you will almost certainly see sea otters.

Easy in and out, but tight turns if you have a big rig. Our 30’ class C had no troubles and there were a lot of much larger trailers and class A’s so maybe tight but definitely doable.

You can easily walk to Phil’s, but expect very long lines. They were not allowing dogs even in outdoor seating area.

It was very quiet at night, but very loud during the day. Everyone there was very friendly. Very nice and helpful people running the office.

I would definitely stay here again, especially if going whale watching or kayaking with the sea otters.

Great location between Santa Cruz and Monterey. Very good facilities in small park. Walking distance to wonderful beaches and several restaurants. 30 min drive to SC north or south to Monterey.

Good RV Park , back in parking only. Limited space , reservation required. Easy walk to town and restaurants, numerous in area. Great Whale watching boats available right next to RV Park
