Worth every penny

Being that we chose this camp site last minute is a total score. Large sites, full hookup options and 10 minutes from the beach. Camp host were very nice and accommodating. Some sites are close to the 33 highway so you will have road noise but we are used to Rincon. There is tent camping in the higher sites. Covered with plenty of mature trees for nice shade. Clean restrooms but no showers. Campground is very close to the Ojai-Ventura bike trail. Hiking trails all over and did I say 10 minutes from the beach!!! We stayed with our 2 toddlers/teen and had a blast. Only odd thing is that some sites hookups are backwards. No biggie. We just ran our lines under our rig. We would definitely stay here again.

Just what we needed.

We have always been avid tent campers. Fall of 2019 we decided to purchase a trailer. Don't get me wrong. We love every amenity it brings but we have been missing something. I decided even with this whole Covid 19 pandemic I would take the family on a quick outing. Away from everyone. To unplug. We decided no trailer. Let's go explore. That is what we did. We finally came upon Upper Peppermint Dispersed camping and said this was it. Very spacious campsite next to the stream. Only one family when we arrived Friday mid day. When we left Sunday morning there might have been 2 more sites being used. If you want to go off grid but be close to a few cool spots this is the place. Dome Rock is minutes away. Trail of a hundred Giants is about 30 minutes south. Only reason I put 4 stars is because the fire regulations at these times. Sheriff told us fires aren't really allowed. There were also signs posted. That's what we planned to cook on so we took our chances.
