I will try help out potential readers with some good to knows
1. The ground isn’t fully level at campground I stayed at and some of the other ones I observed. Between gopher holes and natural slope it can be a tad challenging. But it was easily solvable
2. The camp hosts bring around firewood every evening so if you didn’t bring any or enough you are covered
3. There is a trail down to the beach near Campground 8-9. The views are absolutely fantastic but be very cautious..the trails infested with poison oak and ivy
4. The restrooms are clean and well kept. They are pit toilets. No plumbing or for that matter no water available onsite (potable or otherwise). So make sure you bring enough
5. As of March 2021 the CA - 1 Northbound route has shut down at Rat Creek (that’s just south of Lucia). The Ferguson-Nacimento road from Ft. Legget is also shut down. So if you are coming from San Francisco, the only way is to go south all the way to Paso Robles, take SR-46 near Cambria and drive up CA - 1 via San Simeon. It’s a beautiful route but it’s a bit longer and the stretch from Gorda to Kirk Creek is especially twisty. So have you mountain driving skills sharp
