"This mountain has many of hiking trails for various levels of hikers."
"Live Oak is the closest to the entrance (and town), and features some cool rock formations to explore, but it's colder, has terrible cellular data service, and doesn't quite have the sunset / sunrise views"
"as usual some spots are better than others but most close to restrooms and/or water. lots of poison oak and star thistle right off trail. great deterrent for kids to stay out of tick areas but id worry"
"Always went here when we don't wanna drive too far. Staff is great and place is clean. Campsite #69 has the best view but is next to trail. Very nice trails and not super far from town to get food."
"A ton of great hiking and horseback riding trails. Literally 5 mins outside of the town of Napa. Ate at an amazing Brazilian Steakhouse and came to camp in just a short drive."
"Nice, clean place with beautiful hiking trails. The garden is very cute, perfect for a quiet walk or meditation. Sites are close to each other. This place is a good getaway into nature."

"The area is beautiful and lots of people come here to walk and exercise, and once I took my dog on a walk I saw why nobody brings their dog - TICKS! So many! "
"Near the freeway so there was road noise almost all night.
Great option for when you just need a cheap overnight."
"Tilden is great for anyone looking for a close park right outside of the Berkeley/San Fran area. It is a rather large park area that overlooks Berkeley."

$42 - $47 / night

"Angel Island is a California State Park, but it's surprising how many visitors do not know of the 10 campsites scattered around the island!"
"Campsites are walk in throughout the island. Remember there will be fog and there will be wind.
We try to get what they call the "group" kayak site. "
$40 - $75 / night
"The walk to the beach was 60 seconds and the ocean can be seen from the site. Cool ww2 structures. You get a code to open the gate uptop and drive down to park for your stay."
"If you plan to leave your cooler outside of the bear box make sure it has a lock or secure latch. 3- you get a gate code and parking pass to drive down, but have to walk your gear the last 500-1,000 ft"
TravelerStaff at the visitor center/store were friendly. Sugarloaf had lots of sites to choose from. We had many neighbors (mostly RVs) but enough space between sites. Can’t blame the campsite for the guy who brought a tv & played it out loud lol. It was quiet by 10pm.
The weather was nice mid-April. Good amount of shade. Flat ground for tent. Picnic table, fire pit, bear box, nearby bathrooms & dumpsters.
The flying bugs / mosquitoes were out so come prepared. Only left with 1-2 bites = victory! We walked the “Nature Trail” through the campground & when we tried to sit they would swarm. But it was a nice short easy walk, where we saw a rabbit, turkeys, lizards, deer, & quails! Seems they have lots of hikes available. Had a great time!
TravelerGreat experience! Park staff was friendly and very helpful. There’s a good amount of space between campgrounds to allow for privacy. Lots of shaded spots. Multiple clean and flushable toilets and showers. Drinking water was murky, so bring water if you’re picky. Lots of foxtails in the grass, so be careful if bringing pets.
TravelerI was here in the month of May very quiet squirrels running around lots of birds I think there was only three or four people that it was during the week so there's that good cell service I have a 25 ft RV fit in the space fine.
GuideToilets are clean but is just a big parking spot you have to pay for the WiFi
TravelerLes endroits pour camping car sur SF sont très limités ! La ville ne s’y prête pas du tout. Environ 20 min du pont en voiture. Le parking est très étroits et bondé. Nous avions l’impression que les personnes présentes sur le camping y habitaient toute l’année.
GuideIt was a nice place to stay in between a lot of trees. We stayed at the side close to the highway so it was a bit noisy but not too bad. The people were friendly! It was a bit too pricey though. We paid around 100 bucks for a normal site, nothing fancy.
A little side information: if you allergic to pollen, especially trees you should be careful at the moment. The campsites are directly located under mulberry trees. They triggered severe hay fever symptoms in me.
GuideCheap and convenient. The area is kind of sketchy, but it worked for one night and we didn't have any trouble. Looks like there's a lot of people there who are overstaying the allowed number of days.
TravelerA safe, beautiful, affordable property to spend outdoors time on. Convenient sites with complete hookup and also restroom/showers handy. The 800+ acres of hills, woods and fields offers archery, disc golf, hiking, horseback riding and more. Very friendly, helpful staff. Bonus: short drive to Downtown Napa. Wish we had more time to spend there. Highly recommend!
RangerVery nice flat green grassy cover camp sits. Like your camping in your home backyard. 30 and 50amp campsite. It is supposed to be FULL HOOKUPS and was the last two times we camped here. But this time, due to some problems with sewer systems, they have had to turn it off. So just 30 and 50amp Electric and water. THEY HAVE DUMP STATION, BUT NO HONEY BUCKET TRUCK TO COME AROUND TO YOUR SITES TO DUMP YOUR RV. SO BEFORE SETTING UP YOUR CAMP. DUMP YOUR TANKS. We have a portable dump tank if we need it. NOT breaking Camp to take trailer to dump station. Praticeing good water management. Dish pans in sink to dump water out on grassy lawns. Only use toilet for middle of night bathroom call. No showers. Using campground showers bathroom.
