Grey Oaks

Great stay! Camp sites are well equipped with chairs, cookware, tiki torches and fire lighter and firewood. Toilets were clean although not flush toilets. There’s no running water but there are some huge water dispensers for washing hands and dishes that made it feel like running water. There was some poison oak around but the camp site itself was clear. We had no issues. There is a shower room a little way up the slope which we didn’t use. Overall we had a very comfortable stay. Hope to come back soon. It’s a beautiful area.

Both Zak and Liam (Zak’s son) were wonderful to work with! Liam was our point person for our stay, and was both responsive and attentive without being overbearing. Great location, super easy to get into Monterey, but far enough to be peaceful. The three sites are close together, but large enough that they don’t feel on top of each other. I loved the things that were provided at each site - some fire starters, wood to burn, a fire color packet (SO fun with the kids) and a few games. Lovely spot to see some great stars at night. The composting toilets were well maintained and extremely convenient. Love that the lights and everything used were solar powered as well, they are really working to run an environmentally friendly camp. While we did not use the showers, having the option is great. Liam was very good about showing us and our kids where poison oak is around the sites. Without his guidance, we definitely would have ended up with some very itchy and unhappy kids (and parents!). Really enjoyed our stay, and would absolutely come back!

Great amenities, smooth experience

I camped at Site 1 at Grey Oaks with 4 other friends and we had a great experience! The campsites are very well maintained and lots of really helpful amenities like the very clean pit toilets and water station. The Tiki torches really helped keep mosquitoes at bay and we had plenty of wood for our campfire! The whole experience was very easy and I would definitely recommend!

Nice camping experience. We enjoyed the camp fire and seeing wildlife. Site 4 is a short walk up and on a slope. Owners were super nice (drove our stuff up) and responsive.

Zak and all the camp staff were so friendly! And kept the campsite very tidy and stocked. While you can see 2 of the other sites from site 1, it still felt plenty private :) we would definitely recommend and stay again!

Zak is a great host! Easy to get in touch with, facilities were well maintained, their animals are adorable, and we love having plenty of wood available to keep the fire going at night.

Great escape, but keep kids close.

I brought my family camping, for many of them it was their first time. Site 3 was great for being out of the way from the bathrooms but close enough you don’t have to hike to it. There are two composting toilets, with a watering cleaning station between them. The shower is farther away but the size was perfect and the hot water was great! The shower could use some storage shelving. Zack and his crew were extremely friendly and welcoming. If we were ever low on anything they were quick to refill. The staff were very attentive but definitely gave you your space and privacy. One drawback of Site 3, it’s not leveled the best, but if you situate your self well, it’s not the biggest of drawbacks. The biggest drawback I would address is the amount of poison oak surrounding and sometimes being within the campsite itself. Be aware of it and keep your young ones close. I would definitely come back but not necessarily with the young ones. Thanks again Zack and crew for a great weekend!

Site 5 (Only bookable w/ Site 2)

I absolutely loved camping at this spot! The trip was pretty last minute, but everything worked out perfectly. One thing I really appreciated was that there was firewood available on site, along with fire starters, which made setting up the campfire so easy. We stayed at Spot 4, and it felt very private compared to the other sites. Having that extra privacy made the whole experience even better and more relaxing. Another huge plus was the shower, it had hot water, which was amazing after a day outdoors. It’s such a small thing, but it really made a difference in comfort. There was some poison oak around the area, but it was very manageable. As long as you stayed on the designated paths, it wasn’t an issue at all. Overall, everything exceeded my expectations, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and well equipped camping experience

Nice campground, quite and peaceful with some nice touches! Loved the dishes and pots and pans provided. There is a shower with hot water which is a big plus! It is close to a road so it could be a bit noisy at night

Great hosts. They met us for a quick orientation and even had a box of supplies for us. Not sure if everyone gets that or it was for us since we were the only ones there, but it was very nice and thoughtful. Site 1 and two are next to each other but spaced to keep as separate as possible. The surroundings make the three sites feel like you are in the woods - even though when we thought about it, we are in the "front yard.". It's 100 yards from the road or anything else. The shower is up a hill and a nice addition. Nothing fancy, but clearly thought out and it works (warm water too). The ground on site 1 is close to flat, but not entirely. The benches, camp fire space, and grill are a nice addition and at every site. We went on a rainy weekend and I would return and recommend. It was one of the nicer basic places I have stayed. Thanks Zac!

The pros: very private, I never saw or heard other campers. The sunset was lovely and we got to hear lots of wildlife, including a bald eagle landing on a tree in our site. The cons: site was heavily sloped. My water bottles and pens kept rolling off the picnic table and the chairs we tried to set up around the fire pit actually overbalanced. (Note: tent pad was perfectly flat). This site is accurately marked as a walk-in but it was a substantial uphill walk, not a quick jaunt. The bathrooms are also a substantial downhill distance from the site. The hosts drove our stuff up for us, but the distance meant I could not carry my food crate back out to the car to store my food at night. With no food locker at the site, I was extremely concerned about animals raiding my food supply, and I did have to chase a mouse away from the picnic table (but thankfully nothing bigger.)

Great little getaway, and a delightful host. Somewhere between glamping and camping, with sites that are close enough to be social with others if desired.

Very pretty property with great hosts. We were not able to get in until very late and they very graciously accommodated us. They have water and wood that smells amazing when burned and a nice box of goodies including popcorn and colored fire packs. One note is the sites are next to each other and not visually separated, similar to state parks.

Great spot, helpful hosts, but be aware of time of year when you go or check with host about overwhelming amount of caterpillars. Was there September 27th and had caterpillars on all the surfaces when arriving there. Couldn't use the table and had many of them land on our tent and try to cocoon. If creepy crawlies are not your thing id check with host. Luckily we had an awning so wasn't too worried about them landing on us while hanging out. Made for a hard clean up with all the locals critters. Spot wasn't as private as we had thought, other sites were about 40ish feet away. So similar to a state park set up. You'll see people around you and hear them but not shoulder to shoulder. Rest of the experience was nice, outhouse close by site 1, fire wood provided, friendly staff/host, and nice surroundings.
