Definitely take the High Peaks trail and get to the Bear Gulch parking lot early!

Stayed at site 109. It backed onto a wooded area and a stream. Lots of wildlife.

It was our first visit to Pinnacles and we found the landscape to be beautiful. We only stayed one night because we were passing through and had our dog with us. We basically saw what we could from viewing points. We are looking forward to coming back to hike the area. On a side note the campground was quiet and clean and having a dump station was a plus.

Wife says campground gets a 7 out of 10. Bathrooms were far and few, and water kind of a pain to get to in our trailer.

Good spaces. Great Rangers and service. Beautiful place.

Nicely laid out, and the folks in the office were great.
@LeahL3813703 · Camped on Feb 13, 2026 at Campsite #89
The campsite was great. My only complaint is that the trail head to most popular hikes is three miles away and the shuttles are small any only come every 30 mins. When it was busy I would have had to wait up to an hour and a half since the lots were full or add an additional 6 miles to my hike.

The tent cabins are a lot of fun - very spacious and come with a heater!
@NicholasH39633 · Camped on Feb 13, 2026 at Campsite #34
Make sure your tras is in your car or in the food locker because raccoons will get to it. Speaking from experience. But overall great campground.
@JamesW5759385 · Camped on Feb 13, 2026 at Campsite #115
Great quiet campground. A bit of a walk to the closest bathroom, but there's a little trail behind the parking space leading to the road.
@DeboraL6AD6D87 · Camped on Feb 13, 2026 at Campsite #15
Very nice facilities, I stayed at campsite 15, and in my opinion the campsites on that loop (10 through 15) have the best location, close to flushing toilets that were clean, had paper and soap all weekend. Also not far from store and showers, which worked great and were free! The hikes in Pinnacles are fantastic, we went from the campsite to the reservoir and it took us about 3h there and back. I'd definitely go back. I'd avoid campsites numbered 50, 51, 52... as there was no bathroom nearby just a portable toilet. And I'd avoid any campsites on the path to the trails as there's a lot of foot traffic.

Great spacious campsite. Beware of raccoons, they are fast and sneaky! There is a shuttle to the main hiking trails.

Beautiful time of year and scenery. Wildflowers just starting to pop. Park has plenty of room. Nice hikes.

Site 2 is large but the loss of a star is due to the location of the fire pit. It was near the cars and the road so not super private. Its close to the bathrooms, showers, shuttle stop, and camp store which is great. It even had the WiFi from the camp store reach the site.

We really enjoyed camping at the Pinnacles campground. We liked seeing the Balconies caves and hiking. Having the shuttle is really great. The driver was helpful and we got dropped off where we wanted to be and picked up at the end of the day. A very fun experience.

Very good hikes. Amazing wildlife right in the campground. Turkeys, deer, roosting vultures and yes, with binoculars, condors.
@jenp41E0B1C474 · Camped on Feb 5, 2026 at Campsite #23
We stayed at a tent cabin. Easy check in. Cabin Solar provided lighting. Bathrooms and showers were being cleaned regularly. Lots of wildlife. Nice and quiet on a winter weekday. We were hoping to stay thurs-sat but a campground policy wouldnt let us book friday unless we booked saturday too.

A very nice, clean park. The employees in the store and the park officials were very helpful. Each answered our questions kindly and fully. We brought our rv trailer and there was many threaded water faucets to fill our water needs. We filled our water tank with our hose before moving into our camp site. The showers and restrooms were clean.

This is a nice campground right in the park. We stayed during February and the park was not busy at all. We were able to park at all the trailheads. That said, this place does get busy in the springtime and summer. We had 30am hookup which worked well. Water spigots are throughout the campsite. Easy dump station on the way out. The sites were spread out and level.

The campground was very nice. We stayed in the tent area with our van, and this was less busy than the RV area. The camp store had a nice selection of supplies in case you forget anything.
Good

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
