Tree studded campsites with large view of the ocean. Not far off Hwy 1. Many beaches to choose from a few miles away. Close to Anchor Bay, Gualala and Point Arena. Large secluded sites with picnic tables and plenty of room to pitch a tent. Porta potty and potable water available. Great place to get away. Please note ticks are always prevalent on the coast and Spring time there are more of them please make sure you and your dog are protected.

We really liked staying at the campground. The location off the 128 was super convenient and the campground itself was very well maintained. Can only recommend it!

Site 1 - Ocean View Campsites
Site One
Beautiful views from site one. Sunsets are majestic with sea lion barks in the background. Honey buckets are clean along with a nice large sink area for washing your hands. I had zero cell service which was not a bad thing but good to know for future visits. This site is above Hwy 1 so know you will hear some road noise during the day and at night. Also, even though the other sites are far enough from each other not to be heard there are no trees between them so not a whole of privacy if that is what you’re seeeking. But would recommend otherwise.

Site 2 - Ocean View Campsites
Great Experience!
We arrived around 3pm to set up camp at Site#2 & the sunlight was just beaming on us. I would suggest bringing a canopy for shade. Mosquitos do come out for bites so bug sprays or mosquito repellent coils are a must. The portapotties & make-shift sink were decent, but wished the sink had an overhead shade/cover. Trash cans were available on site too. I was really hoping we get to make a campfire, but it was prohibited due to high risk of fire. There should be campfire rings at each campsites though for when fires are allowed. Site#2 & 3 don't have the ocean view, but I booked it for the experience. This was our first time camping on the coast. Our tent did have a little bit of a slope so it would be nice to have it leveled out. Our neighbors were closeby, but we still had our own privacy. Overall, it was a small & nice campsite.

Site 1 - Ocean View Campsites
Nice spot away from the summer crowd. Lovely beaches nearby and close enough to gualala to stock up on groceries. As previously noted, site 1 has great views and a little road noise but it’s not overpowering. It was nice to have a sink to do dishes! Sadly we couldn’t have a fire due to a recent fire ban but we still enjoyed our time. Both site 1 and 2 have good spots to hang hammocks. Site 3 has more room for a group
