Great campground. Can’t imagine a more special location. The host was very friendly and interesting. Beware a lot of poison oak all around the campgrounds.

Very nice location with big camp sites. The whole camp area is very clean and quiet. Many lots are slightly slanted so it can be a challenge to find a flat area to place your tent.

Wonderful campground, host were very friendly. Sand dollar beach is just across the street, quiet and isolated area to enjoy. Jade cove was a few meters down the road, walkable but bushy. Bathroom kept clean daily. Campsite 10 has the best sunset view looking towards the ocean. On the windier side but overall great location!
