Best Equestrian Camping near Pinnacles National Park

Seriously love this place and wish we could go all the time! Too bad we live on the East Coast or id he here 24/7. We stayed in a cabin in January. Right near Pinnacles National Park! We had Condors above our cabin, deer around us, wild pigs crossing the roads. Its amazing!!!! My favorite part of our California trip was staying here!

Big campground because the coronavirus the facility has closed. I just use campground and showers is free hot water showers. Seems like fun on the summer I went on the winter and the place is very cold. One time visit. Staff is very cool.

Plenty of sites if you have 30 amp. Plenty of full hook up sites. The 50 amp sites were all in one section. If you don’t need to run your A/C you can get by with 30 amp hook up. We loved most of the sites were pull thru. Had good picnic tables. Restrooms and showers were great. Like others have said this place needs a lot of care. A lot of sites were out of order. Nice trails there. Gilmore was a distance for us to restock on supplies. Pool was open but not heated. Hot tub was closed for the winter season. You are out in the sticks so no cell phone service. You could purchase WiFi and patch your phone thru WiFi calling.

Stayed here over the weekend on a last minute reservation. And it’s absolutely beautiful here, campground was very clean and quite. This was our first outing in our pop up and this place made it much better, walking trails and daily activities for the family. Had multiple deers wondering the grounds so be sure to put your food away. Nearest town is San Benito about 20 mins away. They have a small store on the grounds with limited items also. We stayed towards the back site 353 I believe abs had no others around us. Definitely will be booking another stay here!

Our family enjoyed this campsite. The only issue was the squirrels had chewed through the electrical at some of the better sites. All in all it was very relaxing. They had a tv, games and arts for the kids in the clubhouse. The pool was closed for the winter but I can't wait to visit again.

Although this is a dryer region the campground tends to be on the browner side, but I look forward to every trip.

Birds, trees, flowers, grass. Doesn’t have that jammed together RV park like some Thousand trails parks (ahem Cottonwood and Yuma AZ )

This campground is 300 acres, so they say. We went here for the first time end of July when it can be hot toddy. It was only low 90s. They have 2 pools, one adult with hot tub and one family, quite far apart. All on all we liked it and will return in the winter when I am sure it will be beautifully green hills surrounding.

Drove up the road a bit, requires some careful driving and a decent clearance. I drive a Mazda CX-5 and it handled it great. Some pit bathrooms and small parking area, saw a couple other cars come by. There is a sign saying no camping but it’s unclear if it’s for past that point or for the little parking area. Either way we showed up around 8:30 pm and left by 9:30 am with no issues. It’s a popular mountain biking area so people will probably be there in the morning. I wouldn’t stay here long term but for a night it’s isolated enough you shouldn’t have any issues. If you look up A-1 Trailhead just follow google maps and drive a bit further up until you see the bathrooms.

Part of the KOA franchise, this is a very clean, well positioned RV and Cabin park for exploring the Monterey, Salinas, Watsonville, Santa Cruz area. There are limited recreation facilities due to the terrain and size of property. As of this writing, it is under certain restrictions due to the pandemic. Good idea to check first before making any reservations.

If you appreciate the coast near Big Sur, you will love Monterey. They have stellar camping grounds on the beach and awesome tourist destinations to visit while you’re in town, including the Monterey Bay Aquarium (which I visit at least once a year). These beaches are chalked full of wildlife and the awesome beach town of Monterey is bustling with great restaurants and shops. Like most of my beach camping choices, Monterey is ideal for ocean activities like Kayaking, whale watching, etc. It’s absolutely beautiful and worth the trip year round!

The location is very secluded as bd far from stores but fairly close to the sea. Have visited a few time and enjoy the stay. Not many issues. I’m looking forward to the Upgrades!

Nice secluded place that's want to busy.

Everything that you need, plus heated pool and games room!

Pretty basic place. Level, noisy highway. Very friendly staff clean. I enjoy more of the outdoors so not really my cup of tea. Very narrow spaces.

We stayed at a cottage at Lake San Antonio. We were fortunate to have a local show us around. Grandpa is a local to Bradley and this is a favorite spot when we want to get away but still have all the accommodations of home.

It was a warm weekend at San Antonio. The temperature at the lake often exceeds 100 in the summer. There is ample space for camping . You’ll need reservations if you want a hookup . Boat ramps are available. During the drought the water level has dropped significantly as well as the quality of the water. Some years the lake is almost dry. Camping spaces are spread out finding shade can be a challenge. Bathrooms and shower are available.

I love this place! So many beautiful views and amazing spots to camp. The lake is everything. A few years ago it was dried up. Thank you rain! Now it’s back and better than ever.

Great camp ground. Launched the boat and anchored it to shore. Literally had the place to ourselves. Fishing was great from shore in morning and dusk. They had clean bathrooms and showers.
