My wife and daughter aren’t big fans of camping (yet) but I was able to persuade them to check out camping here in PT. Mugu. Thornhill is always booked up since it’s right on the beach but I was able to reserve a spot at Sycamore instead. We camped in June 2020, just when campgrounds were opening up again.

The rangers and camp host were pleasant. There is firewood available there. If you forget anything, you can always drive down PCH a few miles to the grocery store. A short walk from the Sycamore loop campsites takes you under the overpass to the beach. On the beach, there are numerous picnic tables and porta-potties.

The other campers here are your typical crowds, from big families with children to couples and even sole campers. Overall people are very considerate in terms of keeping the campground clean and noise levels were respected. There are plenty of the mature sycamore trees which offer plenty of shade.
