Loved the nature!

We went this past weekend. Beautiful weather, not too hot. It was a hike-in camp site called sky camp. It was a 1.3 mile hike uphill so that was pretty rough. It was our first time going to a hike-in camp site. The site (003) was perfect. You couldn’t see the next camper, very secluded, you could hear them, but it wasn’t an issue at all. The site we had was a short walk to the restrooms and water fountain with potable water. We did a morning hike and the trails were absolutely stunning. It was quite a ways to be able to see the ocean, so we didn’t actually complete the hike but got very close. We probably won’t be doing a hike-in any time soon, because our kids are not fan of it (13,11 and 8) but for adults it’s doable. The seclusion and beauty you get is well worth it!

Loved the river hike!

Went during memorial weekend last year, quite busy! The area was nice but we loved the river hike the most. That was so much fun and adventurous. It kept us occupied for a good 3-4 hours. On the other side of the river we heard there were waterfalls but we didn’t explore in that direction. A lot of people brought their grill and were hanging out on the banks of the river. Campground had a curfew but the campers did not care for it and blasted their music until 2 am. After reporting it to the park ranger, the people had some decency to stop the music earlier (12 AM). The camp sites were not too close and not too far from each other and it was very spacious.
