      Coast Campground is nestled within a small coastal valley with easy access to the beach and tidepools. The beach is within 220 yards of the campground and tidepools are located ~720 yards to the southeast. One may access Coast Campground by foot, bicycle, or horse; not by boat, auto, or RV. The shortest approach on solid ground is via the 1.8-mile slightly uphill hike on the Laguna and Fire Lane Trails, starting at the Laguna Trailhead just east of the hostel.

      Olema Campground

      Spacious and Accommodating

      We visited this park earlier this spring. Yes it was wet, but we didn't mind. Liked the spaces and layout so much...we are going back this fall. Plus we love that whole area.

      However, DYRT got some info wrong. 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.

      Ritchey Creek Campground — Bothe-Napa Valley State Park

      Close to wine country

      Lovely campsite with very sweet camp hosts. Always waved when they drove by.

      Chose site 17 because of the beautiful tree seen in another review but was felled prior to our arrival, so no big tree. We did however get a beautiful view of the stars.

      Two things to note, some of the sites (didn’t look like all of them had this issue) have an incredibly fine dusty dirt that gets on absolutely everything, it made our feet, legs and sandals completely beige from the dust and we had to wipe them with wet wipes before going into our tent and tracked a fair amount into our car upon leaving.

      The other thing we were disappointed with was that we had to pay for showers on top of already paying over $50 for our site for one night, we felt that was a pretty big con and that it should be included in the fees.

      Overall, you can’t get closer to the wineries and it was an otherwise lovely site.

      Quiet place to work during the week

      Very enjoyable stay. The park is clean,quiet and there’s a few trails that take you to the Beach. It’s about a 30 min walk but an easy one. Theres electric, cable and water at the pole. The sewer is up near the entrance. All in all a nice peaceful retreat. I work remote and have had meetings all week. No issues with Verizon or T mobile Hot spots.

      Beautiful

      This rv site was awesome.It's quiet beautiful, lush green. Be aware tho. It's full of poison oak!!!! But yiu can get around it.
      There are no hook ups. But the sights are mostly shaded, so it was a great help and I did not go in a hot time of the year. They have good hours for use of generators as well We Brought our electric bikes and rode to the geyser in Calistoga and to multiple wineries It was a great way to travel

      Olema Campground

      Great getaway spot

      Ok, I was originally hoping for a cabin, which is included in my search, but this CG is either tent or RV only. Luckily, I also brought a tent.

      I was there 2 weeks ago. It's a fairly large area and flat. Lots of space for kids to play including a play area.

      Sheep roam freely in one area towards the back.

      It's a great place for families. Showers are great. Includes a small shop for goodies.

      I love it there. Only negative is there are only portapotties. Except for a couple that are constantly in use.

      San Francisco North-Petaluma KOA

      Busy and expensive but great for kids

      Wow! This place is busy and expensive. We stopped at this KOA because it was a good halfway point for us heading to the Redwoods. This KOA offers a variety of activities that cater to children, such as petting zoos, jumping pillows, climbing walls, and pools, which are excellent for keeping the young ones engaged and entertained. To me it was overcrowded and the firepits were so close to the RV’s I was afraid it would set my neighbors RV on fire, or our neighbor was going to set ours on fire. For those without children (like us), the bustling environment might be overwhelming, but it also provides an opportunity to enjoy the lively atmosphere.

      Spring Lake Regional Park

      Lots of recreation options, but that also means busy.

      This campground is nice with newer bathrooms and shower facilities, but it's also very open and exposed. Great access to Spring Lake's water-based activities and hiking trails, plus easy access to Trione-Annadel State Park for hiking and mountain biking. Howarth Park, a city park, also borders Spring Lake Regional Park and provides access to boating and fishing on Lake Ralphine, plus they have a small train, carousel, tennis courts, and a softball field. Overall a good campsite for families in need of lots of recreation options, but not the best for those wishing to "get away from it all."

      A Sunny, Inground Solar Heated Pool in the Redwood Forest! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏕️🚐

      Jeanne and Roberts treehouse is a luxurious Wonderland of a campground! We had total privacy, a pool, sauna and hot tub and a cool little treehouse to sleep in (with real stairs, leading up to it), Our dogs had a great time because they were off leash… The place is completely private and fenced! We highly recommend, the treehouse… You won’t be disappointed!

The Vancamp site has total privacy, and a hot tub in the redwoods. We could not have found a better place to hang out and chill! Our dogs even got to be off leash because it is all fenced!

      Great CG close to Pt Reyes!

      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 (will bring our trailer back), tables, fire rings. Not much privacy but at least this weekend it was quiet (except for our group 🤣)

      Quiet in Winter

      Nice sites in Oak, Madrone and Manzanita forest. As many have mentioned, it’s also a Poison Oak farm, but if you keep to the trails and roads it’s fine. Many sites are not level. Road is narrow. Bathrooms clean, showers although clean were not inviting. ATT was a bar, occasionally two. Was able to make a call if I stood still. Minutes away from Calistoga and St. Helena. We imagine it’s a very busy place in peak season, but a nice quiet getaway in winter.

      This place was absolutely beautiful. I got a "full hook-up" site which apparently meant they drive around in the morning and clear your tanks. Not ideal but it worked for us.

      Quiet, fun, relaxing

      We rented a camping yurt and we were so surprised how big it is! We received a key to our own bathroom and shower! They had a sink to was dishes in and a place to clean our fish. We rented a motor boat for a few hours to explore the beautiful lake.  Pet friendly. Great little beach. A dock to fish from. Everything you need to have a great time! They also have bigger yurts and cabins to rent. Also, RV parking .We have already booked another visit.

      Good location

      With a good location you can take some walks to the Salmon River. The pull thru was long but is very narrow. Time you are setup, the camp side of the site is very small. There is a lattice between the sites that lend to some privacy. All pea gravel, and fairly level. T-Mobile service is weak. Wi-Fi is available but very slow. When you check in they give you two pages of rules and 7 sins of camping. Entertaining.

      This place is clean. We were greeted by the camp host with a smile! Very friendly! She answered all our questions and showed us around. We feel in love with this place! 💕 You can fish right from your camp spot if you get a spot right on the water. Clean bathrooms, club house with games and a kitchen. Fire pits and BBQ's. Green grass in the BBQ area with a beautiful gazebo that has grapes growing on it! Felt very nice and cool since it was very hot in Aug. I highly recommend this place! 😉😎

      So many amenities!

      We stayed here for two nights. The campground is very large and very clean. Most spots are pull-through and ours was super clean and had a good amount of space. We stayed in row D but I’d recommend row A as the spots were a little more tucked away.

      Pool and hot tub was super nice and they even have a food trailer open on the weekends

      Bodega Bay RV Park

      Bodega Bay for a couple days

      Checked in a little later in the day- they had our name and spot on a sheet tacked on the bulletin board at the check-in area-

      Our spot was very close to the entrance – mostly level a little angle downhill so bring some blocks.

      First made the mistake of trying to back in- it turns out these are pull in spots, so make sure if you’re not in a pull through that you read the sheet and determine if you should pull in or back in.

      Fairly quiet on a Saturday night close to town and a very comfortable stay.

      Only electric and water hook ups but 50 amp is really nice and they have a dump here at the park. You can use when you check out.

      When I did have a chance to meet them in the office, they seemed really nice at the front desk, and kind of surprised that we would check in our second vehicle :) maybe most people don’t. ;)

      Incredible Views!

      The road is a little tight to get into this resort( 1 lane road with traffic going both ways with few pull offs) but the views are absolutely amazing! We stayed in the Lakeview spot and had the entire place to ourselves during the week. It's definitely more of a summer stay but we enjoyed it in the fall just as much. Staff was very attentive and friendly, resort is quiet and secluded from the main road. MUST BE SELF CONTAINED TO STAY IN THIS LOCATION!!
