Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
Enjoy the wonders of Carrizo National Park. Home to the largest Soda Lake with 360 degree views and the super bloom that attracts thousands of people every Spring. Reconnect with nature and escape the noise and pollution of the city. The majestic hills frame a perfect view of the sky so you can experience sunsets, sunrises, full moons, eclipses and starry nights like never before. You may see local wildlife such as mountain lions and elk in the surrounding hills, rabbits and tarantulas in the fields or even hear foxes and coyotes howling in the distance. Driving Instructions: Head toward the middle of 7 Mile Road until you see a Green outhouse building on the south side. Coordinates: 35°17'04.6"N 119°54'13.7"W  Don't forget to walk on the soda lake! It's a short drive just south of the property. There is cell service on the property for most carriers.  Please be extra cautious with your campfires. Your Feedback is appreciated and is used to improve future experiences for guests. Thank you!

Carrizo Sunset
Camping with self.
Loved the quiet and the scenery. Even though this was a solo trip it was still worth the stars and campfire for some much needed alone time.

Very secluded spot which has its pros and cons. The closest grocery store being 45 minutes away make sure you have everything. Views were pretty good, but it’s obvious this is more of a seasonal site and I didn’t do enough of my research to find that out. Even then the starry sky was incredible and not something you see every night. The bathrooms situation was alright. Reading some old reviews about the door not working I can tell the host really took those into account as there was a brand new (working!) door on the outhouse. Bathroom was covered in spiders however. Lots of bugs and you could hear coyotes howling which is pretty cool. Other than the fact there’s not much to do around here, I think it’s best you plan accordingly and try and come during the super bloom. Still a pretty good site and we went to Pismo beach and made a little day trip out of it

So many spiders and big bugs! Location was easy to find, right off a dirt road. We unfortunately missed super bloom so it was quite brown and dusty, but the campsite itself was well maintained. Host was incredibly communicative, so appreciated quick responses. Cell reception is decent, nearest town is about 45 mins away. Soda Lake was beautiful, but not a lot to see in the area so we were only there for a few minutes. We ended up driving out towards SLO/Avila and made a trip of it.
