Beautiful campsite by Highway 1. You can hear the highway on weekends. No portable water at the campsite. All bathrooms were out of service, and only a port-a-potty was available.

this campground is almost perfect in every way. friendly host, spacious sites. 300 yards away from Sandstone Beach. a very good family vibe exists thru-out the whole park. i was aware of the water situation and they had ample port-a-pottys on site that were cleaned every 3rd day.

Our site was near the portable toilets which was great for traveling with kids and my grandparents. Unfortunately, our site on a hill which made the sleeping arrangements difficult. We were tilted while sleeping. The location of this camp area was great only an hour away from several great trails. Also, the site said shade there was no shade for us but luckily it was pretty cloudy while we were there. I would recommend not to forget any important essentials the closest market is Gorda Market, and they charge you an arm and leg for basic necessities.
