Finley Camp is nestled along Finley Creek in West Sonoma County. Campsites are located in open flats surrounded by Coast Doug Fir, Alder, and California Bay forests. Each campsite has a picnic table and fire pit with cooking grate, and access to a porta potty and hand washing station. The campsites are located past the end of the county road allowing for a quiet peaceful experience. Enjoy a quiet stroll on site, the surrounding communities of Bodega, Bodega Bay, Valley Ford, and Tomales, or just enjoy a quiet day in camp. Our sites are located approximately 20 minutes from Bodega Bay. The campsites are 2.5 miles from the coast and the weather can be unpredictable. As a general rule, it is very similar to that of San Francisco. All camp sites are situated in a valley that offers protection from the coastal winds. The have both morning and evening shade. Sites #2, #6, #7, and #11 have the most space, while sites #4, #7, #8, #9 and #11 offer the most privacy. Sites 1-3, any combination of 5-7, and 12-13 are well suited for groups. Other site groupings work well depending on the number of sites being reserved. Site #8 is unique in that it has a wood deck/platform for tents. There are also NO wood fires allowed at site #8 as it is under the tree canopy. A propane firepit is provided for your use. You can bring a 5 gallon propane tank from home, or a full one is available for rent on site. Well behaved dogs are welcome at Finley Camp. All dogs must be kept on leash at all times while on the property. There are no exceptions to this. Finley Camp is located on an active cattle ranch and directly adjacent to a neighboring ranch with cattle. WE HAVE BEEF AGAIN! Beef is free range grass fed and all naturally raised. Please contact camp host for a price sheet or review price sheet attached to the firewood stand near Site #1. Also be sure to check out our orchard tours! The apples are ripe now and our verities will continue to ripen thru late November. We'll take you to our family orchard where you can pick apples, pears, or blueberries in season and taste yummy treats out of our family garden.

This site will accommodate tents, a campervan, or possibly a very small trailer. As this site is under the tree canopy, NO wood fires will be allowed. A gas firepit is provided at the site. You can bring a propane cylinder from home similar to what is used for a gas barbeque or rent a filled propane cylinder on site. This site is private in that it is in an area by itself, but you will be able to see other campers across the drive in the meadow below. There is a strict two car limit at Site #8.

Site 5 - Finley Camp
We LOVED staying at Finley Camp Site #5!! Super cool to drive through the working ranch on the way to the campsite, and had all the amenities you'd expect at a much larger campsite: picnic tables, fire pit with grill, clean port-a-potty, firewood bundles for purchase, plenty of good tent sites for our group of 8 with room to spare for parking and lounging around the fire. Loved the stone wall at the edge of the fire area. Also, Daniel's ground beef was A++ grilled into burgers over the fire. 10/10 recommend staying here!

great site. there were a few sites near us but with plenty of space between us for privacy and minimal noise. port a potty's were clean including hand washing station. i pre-ordered a bundle of firewood and it was waiting at my site (along with a large water container to put out the flame at end of night). there was more firewood available for purchase as well. bring potable water and trash bags and you should be all set for a great camping trip. ~20 minute drive into bodega bay or much less to town of bodega or valley ford

Such a peaceful place to spend the night. Quiet and secluded. There was only one other camper on the property that I knew of. Spot 4 felt private, had just the right amount of sunlight/shade during the day and the view of the stars at night were stunning. Porta potty’s were well maintained. Will be back in the future :)

Great for groups
Site 4 - Finley Camp
I think this camp would be great for a group, family reunion, event, etc. But, I was traveling solo. It is very remote, there were no other campers in any of the seven or eight sites, and I was seemingly the only human for miles. On top of it, I had zero cell service. So, for me, the vibes were way off, and I ended up not staying. I hesitated to write a review, but figured this may help other solo travelers or people looking for a large group experience.

Another great stay at Finley Camp. We convinced some friends to stay at Site 3 across from us. Weather was perfect, had a great time hiking nearby Pinnacle Gulch to visit the beach, and got some local seafood. As always, the sites were clean, the portable toilets were in good shape and seemed just cleaned. It was busy and almost every site was full but no noise issues with how far apart the sites are from each other.

Oh what a perfect campsite! Perfectly maintained grass and firepit, cleanest portables i’ve ever seen, and such a fun scenic drive in. We were given extremely specific instructions on how to get there so we arrived with no issue. Initially coming into the property past the gate there is a very steep small dirt incline up to the campsites. We had a fully packed RAV4 on arrival and it did feel a little bit sketchy getting up the first time, I would definitely be aware of that. Daniel was extremely kind and communicative. Our campsite was perfectly private and beautiful. we couldn’t see or hear any other campsites unless you went over to the edges where they connected. To one side of the campsite is a pretty steep flipside and the other is a walled and fenced off area where the cows were wondering on our second morning. Definitely heard a lot of cows and they came up and stuck their heads right next to where we were sleeping which was pretty fun for us. I would’ve stayed there at least one more night if I had known how pleasant this site was going to be. Definitely recommend stopping the small towns along the way in and trying any cheeses or other local dairy products. We were able to comfortably make day trips out to Point Reyes. Driving through Cow country at Sunset with one of the highlights coming into the campsite and this place has the most wonderful campfire set up. Can’t wait to come back!

Finley camp is awesome! This is my family’s third time camping there. It’s nice to camp inland away from the wind (Bodega Bay can be super windy). We are a large group and prefer site 12 & 13. It allows us to spread out and offers more privacy. The toilet is clean. The setting is beautiful with trees and a small creek. It’s right down the highway from the ocean. We love it and will be back!
