The grounds are clean and spacious. There are beautiful nature and neat sites to explore. However it’s the hosts who made this stay amazing! They were gracious and friendly when we woke them up at 11 o’clock at night due to being locked out of the car while still setting up camp. These are amazing people who care about the work they do!

The campsite is prone to water shortages!
Portable potties will be used.

The location of this camp site is EPIC: right in Big Sur without cell phone service across the street from a great surfing beach. My little boys loved collecting shells and sand dollars. I loved this campsite.

The only reason I didn’t rate the campground excellent was they didn’t have any potable water. Everything else was great. Our site was good the camp hosts were very friendly and explained a lot about the area. Would definitely come back.
