Foggy in the morning this time of year, warms up about noon. Dogs allowed, but can’t bring them into bathrooms. Flush toilets and coin showers, I think about 1 quarter per minute. No trails for dogs to walk on, but you can walk them around the campground or go for a short drive down the road to find a dog friendly trail. Lots of oak trees and scrub pines. Campsites are dirt with bear bins, picnic tables, and fire pits. Lots of poison oak and poison ivy. Also, if your dog likes to eat acorns, note that they can be toxic to dogs. There are acorns all over the place this time of year, and my dog ate a few of them. She didn't get sick, thankfully.

This campground is taken care of. It's clean, has nice bathrooms and coin-operated showers, the ranger drives by several times a day, and the fireplace is nice. My friend bought some firewood, but it wasn't very good to burn. We ended up going into Pescadero and buying some there. The place is very hilly and I was a little afraid of driving, but I did ok. We had a great campsite with a nice view of the trees, but large acorns kept falling and making loud banging noises. An aggressive bluejay hung around the campsite for a bit but was easily shooed away. I think checkout is at 11am, but the ranger kindly gave me until noon to pick up when I explained this was my first time out and I didn't plan how long it takes to break down very well.
