"Per my rating system, this is very close to being 5 stars, meaning it's worth planning a trip from out of state just to visit this park and surrounding national/state forest for 3 days or more The only"
"It’s a beautiful park and has the largest population of California Condors in the world.
The campground is situated about 2.3 miles from the main trailheads. There's tent and RV campsites."
"There is nothing near buy, except a Shell station with the lowest diesel prices I’ve seen in California."
"Planted fields surround the RV park, Located right off highway 101, it is easy on easy off. This would be a good location for passing through or going to the Pinnacles. You get what you pay for here."
$50 - $75 / night
"No other sites behind us. It felt secluded and private. Close to the bathrooms. And the bathrooms were clean. We didn’t have a river site but the river was right across from us."
"I think it's a California State Park and Covid thing right now. There is some construction going on but it didn't effect our stay at all. We had a river site."
$34 - $154 / night
"Campground was nice and views were pretty good, very hilly part of California."
"recid=10906 is located about 60 minutes south of Salinas in the Los Padres National Forest."
"Typical TT resort park off the beaten path, far out but nice place, we enjoyed our stay. At the time we were there a lot of the riverfront sports were out of order."
"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!"
"we stayed here for two days while camping in california- it was sweet! we had the whole tent/dry camping campground to ourselves this time of year."
"Which had beautiful views, and got our Camper situated. The spots could be a bit updated in my opinion. The gravel was coming apart and the table and fir ring could use a bit of cleaning."
$30 - $34 / night
"We live close by and didn't expect to like being in close quarters with others... didn't think it would feel like nature but it was fantastic. Restrooms clean and campground clean."
"Walk-in campsites.
Lots of raccoons. Don't forget to lock your bear box."
$80 - $699 / night
"Made it just before dusk and we were able to get a tent camping spot for about 70 a night which was not a problem, cuz a roadside parking ticket was waaay higher."
"Set amidst some amazing redwoods adjacent to a bubbling creek. Clean and well maintained facilities. Has cabins, rv sites, and tent sites. Many trails nearby along with some great restaurants."
$35 / night
"Lower sites are more exposed, but get the benefit of the ocean sounds and rocky beach proximity. Upper sites are tucked back into redwoods, with a little stream nearby.
Hike to the kilns!"
"The entire campground isn't like this, but our site was directly beneath the highway and next to the beach. There are fun hikes that leave right from camp that go to a waterfall."
$45 - $49 / night
"While we used to just head up & find a site- its become nearly impossible to "walk-in" during high season."
"We happened to drive in at the right time, had one walk- in site available. Campsites, large, away from other campers and clean."
GuideCamping in the trees, with some sites right on the river. Shoulder season is great, with more availablility than you might expect.. We arrived in early March without a reservation, and found many open sites, some (like the one we snagged) right on the river. A magical place for classic, beautiful state-park camping. No hook-ups, just a peaceful time in a gorgeous setting.
GuideI like this place because the angle of the sun should give some extra time in the morning to break down. I always like a free spot and I was like a spot that’s quiet. And there’s no one else here during the week. To be honest, there are gun shell casings everywhere but I think that’s probably a weekend thing. I will adjust the review if it turns out to be a morning thing.
GuideNice rv park by the beach. Bathrooms and showers are great. Downside is the store is closed on Sundays. Also, $190 a night plus $20 to choose your spot is wild. The location of the electrical/water is awkward.
GuideBeautiful mature trees all over campground. The bathrooms need to be cleaned more often. Sites are not level.
TravelerCampsites all have a fire ring, and a shaded picnic table. There’s a long drop toilet. Beautiful views too.
TravelerI have been trying to camp here for some time. I was finally able to get site 100 in mid June 2025. Spent 4 nights here, reserved through reservecalifornia.
Site 100 is located on the last/ end loop of the campground in Weyland Camp. It is on the outer edge farthest from the river. This site in particular had tree at the back of the site and therefore was mostly in full sun from midday to evening (~5PM). There is a shaded spot for a tent if desired. The site was very large and could accommodate multiple tents. There were 2 different bathroom/ shower options, both a short walk from this site. Standard picnic table, sturdy fire ring, and BBQ stand were also in the sites. Note: You are not allowed to hang hammocks or clotheslines.
The campground was pretty packed every night but was quiet after 10PM. The bathroom were stocked with toilet paper and soap. The showers were hot and 5 minute token was plenty if you do your business.
The river is close and available for lounging and exploring. Please refrain from loud music and littering. There were a bunch of day use people leaving trash all around.
I would definitely come back to this campground.
Tip: Get all your token early since they were gone early 2 out of 3 nights.
Tip; Wifi available at Big Sur Lodge on guest Wifi
LegendSo really only stay here during the Sea Otter Classic and always stayed with all the downhill racers which if you haven't can be chaos (and quite entertaining). There are established sites for larger rigs but we stayed in the fields that get opened up for the large bike event so you really need to pick your spot well if you have a camper as it is not all level.
LegendFirst off the road coming to the campground is very steep, could be challenging for some rigs. Didn't bring the RV here but did tent camp, You need to carry your items in to the spots but that lets you spread out (get away) from other peeps if too noisy. I really liked the amount of shade, price is up there but being in Carmel Valley and close to Monterey really not too bad.
GuideWhere they put me had no WiFi there was a bright halogen light right outside my window and on the other side were squealing pigs. But the shower ( one only) has hot water.
