Beautiful campground, great location, awesome hosts. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets - so fancy living! Highly recommend. A little pricey for a campground, but the location and amenities justify it. Will stay again.

Great campground, about a 5 minute walk from the beach. Most of the campsites are in a large central meadow area, where there are no bushes and few trees to separate the individual sites, so there is a bit of a lack of privacy, but the sites are plenty big, and the remaining campsites around the perimeter of the meadow are shaded and a little more secluded. The camp hosts were extremely friendly, helpful, and hard working. The bathrooms were constantly cleaned, and the whole campground was immaculate. The hosts charged a bit more for firewood than I expected, but I didnt mind paying for it since they clearly worked so hard and it was good to support them. The campground was dog friendly and children friendly, but wasnt primarily a family camp. Most people camping were younger active people- lots of wetsuits hanging up on clotheslines at the end of the day, and surfboards and kayaks on most vehicles. Also, less trailers and campers, the younger crowd mainly slept in tents. Also, I think because it was more of an active crowd, people seemed to get up early and go to bed early- we didnt experience a lot of noise from late-night revelers. No showers, but there are flush toilets and water spigots.

Lovely campground close to coastline access, plenty of shade, dog friendly and clean bathrooms. Only downside is the abundance of poison oak along the perimeter of the campground and along trails

Amazing location. Across the street from sand dollar beach. Close enough to general store in Gorda, and for a slightly longer trip down to the elephant seal beach.

Wow, no CAMPFIRE what so ever! The lady who was hosting was rude. We came ONE hour early and there were hardly anyone there. She said that we were one hour early and next time not to be so early. Wow, really now?

This is a great campground within walking distance to Sand Dollar Beach, Jade Cove, and many other attractions. It's set in a beautiful spot.

Camp hosts were nice. effiecient and helpful. Everday they would drive by and ask how things were going.

The campsite host was super friendly when she came and checked that the amount of visitors and vehicles matched the campsite / reservation. I didn’t see a single piece of trash on the ground, and bet it’s because we saw staff picking up trash which is rad! Overall super stoked on the site and will be back again! Great grounds, and some sites have pretty views of the coastline, all sites having a lot of scenery. Lots of poison oak so be careful for that!

Sand Dollar beach was absolutely gorgeous at sunset. I didn't realize, the beach is practically 100% rocks!
