Best Cabin Camping near Point Reyes National Seashore
Several cabin options exist near Point Reyes National Seashore within established campgrounds. Olema Campground provides cabins with electricity, picnic tables, and fire rings, while Steep Ravine Campground at Mount Tamalpais State Park offers rustic cabins with ocean views. Samuel P. Taylor State Park Campground includes basic cabin accommodations with nearby drinking water and trash facilities. Most locations feature shared shower and toilet facilities rather than private bathrooms within cabins. San Francisco North-Petaluma KOA provides the most amenity-rich cabins with electric hookups, running water, and proximity to camp stores. "Just left here with a group of 33 3rd graders. We stayed in the meadow area. It was wet as it had just rained, but overall it was a nice place. Small store, full hookups in places, tables, fire rings."
Depending on the campground, cabin accommodations range from basic shelter to more comfortable lodging. The KOA location offers family-sized cabins with multiple sleeping arrangements, while state park cabins tend toward more rustic, minimal setups. Most cabins require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited. Pet policies vary by location—Olema and the KOA allow pets at cabin sites while Steep Ravine prohibits them. A reviewer noted about Olema: "While there are plenty of full hookup spaces for RVs, there are no pull thru sites. Only back in for trailers and drive-in for coaches. Many tent camping spaces and RV spaces w/just water and power. The folks are friendly and helpful."
Most cabins near Point Reyes provide beds but require visitors to bring their own bedding, towels, and personal items. Kitchen facilities vary widely—from basic fire rings with picnic tables to cabins with small refrigerators or microwaves. Porto Bodega Marina & RV Park and Casini Ranch Family Campground offer cabins with more extensive cooking facilities. On-site stores at Olema Campground and the KOA stock basic food items, firewood, and forgotten essentials. Johnson's Beach and Skyline Wilderness Park maintain cabins with electricity but limited cooking options beyond communal fire pits, so guests should pack accordingly.
