"I've taken my 3 kids a couple of times now, and it's such a great location along the Sonoma Coast."

GuideVery nice spot with multiple places to pull over and camp. There’s views of Lear Lake if you want to walk a bit. No water nearby. The road is very dusty on the way up!
GuideArrived after hours end of May on Thursday night. Selected non-reserved level paved site in 54-89 loop (close to bay). Paid using supplied envelope and check drawn on US bank. Two clean restroom/shower buildings in this loop. Each had token machine ($1 for 5 minutes). Good hot water pressure. Saw some porti-potties in other loop so don't know what's working over there. Quiet at night except for non-annoying fog horn and soothing ocean waves over hill. Would stay again. NOTE: Wright's Beach State Park campground 5-miles north has Overflow camping next to entrance station (no hook-ups).
GuideSo much trash left behind here! We tried to pick up what we could but there's quite the mess left behind from others who were there prior. Pack it in, pack it out!
This is a beautifully wooded area with a flowing creek, would've been a lovely place to camp!
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.
GuideCame back a year later on a whim and still found it to be a nice place, in spite of the heat. Had a nice spot that was semi-shaded in the afternoon, next to a lovely couple who I was able to share some beers with.
The place was at capacity, but many people leave during the day. In the evening it did get a little loud at times, but nothing obnoxious.
Decent cell coverage - enough that I was able to stream college football.
The upper campgrounds were closed. Not sure how long this has been the case, but it made for a nice quite walk.
Restrooms remain very useable, in spite of the volume of use.
ScoutThere was only one other person here when I was. They got the prime spot, early bird and all. Very nice view. You have to drive up to right as you enter and then turn toward the lake to find the really nice spots. You can't see them from the main area. May need a higher clearance vehicle for that depending on the site. Recommend walking it first.
ScoutSite was perfect. Close to the water am very accessible for an RV.
ScoutAurora has two sites that are across the road from each other. One is on the water with back up sites. It’s very nice, certainly beautiful and worth the extra 10 dollars. A picnic bench behind the RVs and looking out to the water. Large group cooking and gathering areas. The other side is a standard RV park. It’s a medium size park. There are no walking trails, but the walk along the road way is very beautiful. Although it is along town building, the water side is a low water estuary or sorts - lots of tall grasses and duckweed type plants. Many birds. I even saw an egret. The RV park has a few boats to rent. Fishing allowed but may require a permit (did not research this). To get to clear lake from the west the road is very windy and only allows 34 feet and I think that is pushing it. For me, this is the perfect place to just stop and breath.
ScoutNot a easy campground to get to had a RV road is horrible no nearby water
