Great location for beach, biking and hiking

Great location. Less than 1/2 mile to the beach, hiking and MTB/gravel trails accessible from the campground. Sites are close together, though.

Amazing surroundings

This campsite lies within the state park Point Mugu. There are great hikes just of the camp site with amazing views over the state park and the Pacific Ocean. The campground was full but not too noisy.

Nice clea campground

Stayed at sycamore canyon campground site 26. Nicely maintained campground. Some of the sites are a bit small. Definitely not for larger RVs. Freshly paved roads. Downside is the beach is across the highway, and there is poison oak throughout the campground.
