"There are many sites next to the ocean."
"PROS
→ Campground is adjacent to the beach. You can hear the ocean and sometimes catch peeks of the ocean from the campground.
→ Campsites have bear lockers."
$35 / night
"The sites are very close to each other and the camp is very busy In The summer. There is a trail down to a wonderful beach for tide pooling and sunrise/sunset walks."
"One of the few first come first served campgrounds around. Arrived late on a Thursday and were able to secure a site for the weekend."
$55 - $155 / night
"We were lucky to get a site right next to the beach for our class B RV. This is a beautiful site along Highway 1.
PS if this site is full, there is a dry camp about a mile north on Highway one."
"We stayed in our van in the tent area which was secluded, with a stream meandering through, and it was nearly deserted in April."
"But make sure you only go during the week, because of the rowdiness, hell raising, dune driving doing donuts, drunken idiots that are there on the weekends."
"Some nice hikes close by."
$50 - $73 / night
"The convenience of being so close to town, yet feeling like you’re in the forest is hard to beat. There are showers & restrooms, although the showers operate on quarters."
"Even though you are so close to town this is off the beaten path and you can’t even get into this campground unless you have a reservation."
"The road itself is rough and could be very unsettling for anyone trying to do this trip in a vehicle without good off-road clearance. The ruts can be big and cause bottoming out of street cars."
"We chose the latter, and even with the number of other parties near us, we were still able to find a fairly secluded spot."
$59 - $99 / night
"It's not much to look at when you drive up on highway 1 but behind that facade is a great Campground. There are different sections and the upper loop is definitely the best."
"The entrance to this campground is behind a store so it technically is hidden.
What it lacks in privacy of sites it definitely makes up for in amenities."
$47 - $72 / night
"The walk in sites are secluded and this park has all the amenities including free showers. Dog friendly. I hear it gets very busy in the summertime."
"Our spot was nice and clean and next to the creek. Large enough for our three cars three tents and extra table and plenty of room to set up chairs around the fire for us."
$45 - $160 / night
"Simple campground just outside of Mendocino/Ft Bragg. Steps from a beautiful sandy beach."
"My family and I stayed here once on a road trip to California."
"Laundry and showers- close to Fort Bragg- Glass Beach and don’t forget a lock for the old train trestle bridge! Owner of campsite was very nice and helpful! Such a great time!"
GuideWe had a great nights stay here. The Pub is fantastic! Great staff, store, heated pool. There is a moderate trail down to the river.
GuideThis is a first come first served campground. We got there at around 2pm and there were only 2 other campers. By the end of the night most of the spots had filled up. The beach was very quiet with few other visitors. This campground/state park is right at the mouth of the Navarro river so you can walk the river bank and then the beach! Porta-potties were recently serviced, picnic table, fire ring. Sites are close together- resembling a parking lot. This is my favorite beach so far and worth the price of $35/night.
RangerThe trail in is basically an old mountain pass logging road that isn't maintained the best. It's narrow in spots and steep grade. I towed my offroad camper up without issue but its only 13ft long. I wouldn't advise anything much larger then 18ft. I did have to use 4x4 on some of the grades due to the trailer but if just in a vehicle it would be pretty easy. It would definitely present a challenge if it has just rained or was raining. It's true dispersed camping of pack in and pack it out. There's no facilities or trash. Plenty of space to spread out. Don't forget to air down those tires when going out on the beach. I would definitely come back to this one. Also the internet test was based on my Starlink not cell service. I have Verizion and had no service here.
ScoutI’ve been traveling with my dog, and this place was just the peace and quiet that I was looking for. Friendly hosts, bear boxes for storage, enough space between tents. I think this place was worth the money. I hope to visit again.
GuideTwo separate camping areas. Review pertains to Surfwood... which is closer to ocean and boardwalk. Mixed review on sites... some big... some level... some well spaced... some with good views... others not so much. This area contains new restroom & shower building. $1 token for 5 minutes... buy at front gate when drive in. Quiet at night except for sound of gentle surf. Great boardwalk to ocean cliffs... and nice paved walking trail to town. Dump station appears open but did not use. First-come first-serve for unreserved sites after 2pm per person at front gate. Make sure to place items out immediately when you select un-reserved spot before returning to pay within 30 minutes... Will stay again if in area.
GuideArrived after hours and selected unreserved level site for 24' RV. Paid using cash envelope. All sites are shaded under tall trees. A mix of tent and Sites suitable for smaller RVs. No hook-ups. Clean restrooms. Good hot showers using quarters. Right next to Visitor Center and easy Forrest walks. Quiet at night. Would stay again.
TravelerTook a chance that we would find a spot on a holiday weekend. We rolled in at 630pm. There were a handful of first come spaces remaining. Got lucky and found a space for our 34 ‘ rig . Hit a few low hanging branches on the way in. Right next to hwy 101 but mostly quiet at night.
ScoutWalking distance to the visitor center and other great hikes. Dog-friendly, clean restrooms/coin showers, and relatively private sites - some more than others. Beautiful surroundings!
ScoutI've camped here on and off at the paid campgrounds and the free ones throughout my life. VERY beautiful scenery. There are bathrooms with showers. Water spickets everywhere and I think there are also dumping stations for people with RVs.
