Conveniently, close to Hearst Castle, but rundown.
This campground is just two miles south of the Hearst Castle Tour site. It's just off the 101 highway on the inland side of the highway. There's a great view from the upper loop where you can see down to the beach in the ocean. the lower loop is more secluded And covered with more trees and vegetation. We stayed in the upper loop. the campsites are close together without much privacy for isolation between. the entire campground is. somewhat run down. There's a lot of potholes in the roads And the vegetation has been beaten back by all the campers over the years. this campground could probably stand to close for a year or 2 and undergo thorough restoration. it is, however, still very convenient and wouldn't hesitate to use it again if we were coming to visit Cambria or Hearst Castle. also nearby, just to the north, there's some other cool sites like. the elephant Elephant seal viewing area. And there's a lighthouse that can be toured as well.
