Site was clean and had nice views of ocean. One large tent pad, could fit 2 small 2 person tents on. The other flat area had a half buried grill sticking out of the ground. Second time staying in this area, being up in the cove is much nicer and well worth the walk to water faucets and bathrooms

Nice site but no sunlight. Everything was damp a wet for the two days that I stayed.

Sky Campground is great! Site 7 doesn't have as amazing a view as some of the other sites at Sky, but it is nicely secluded. We hiked in from the Bear Valley Trailhead via Meadow Trail, which was very doable for beginner backpackers at a little under 3 miles and about 1100 feet elevation gain. You can extend or shorten the hike in as desired. It's about four miles to get to the coast from the campground, making it a perfect day trip. We hiked down to Sculptured Beach on our second day, and then hiked back to the campsite for a second night. Highly recommended!

Pros - the campsite and hikes near the campsite are very green and shady. We had a pretty misty day, and the Coast Trail hike was absolutely magical. It is a doable distance from the Visitor Center and to Wildcat/Alamere Falls.
Cons - it was misty then full out raining one day (odd for early September), but near the ocean this disappeared. So, I would be prepared with some light rain gear, even in the dry season. Also, this site only had space for two tents, so we had to put our 3rd near the picnic table. We had a max of six people, but the site details should also list the max number of tents. I am glad we did get site 003, because some of the other sites had even less space.

Partner and I went in late August for 2 nights of backpacking. Overall, park staff were friendly, available, and knowledgeable at the entrance. The trails were very well maintained. On day 2, about 0.2 miles into our trail, we came across a team of 4 clearing the trail from the over growth. Day hikes were enjoyable to see the landscapes change from tall trees, and blossoming flowers, to wide open beaches and seashore exploring. Stars were stunning at Sky camp, and Glen camp was absolute tranquility. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked with toilet paper. Secured trash bins at each camp site and clean drinking water at camp. Loved my first experience ant Point Reyes and It won’t be the last. 10/10 would recommend as it’s also a good place to ease friends to Backpacking.

Beautiful campground surrounded by trees! The hike in was easy & trails were very well marked for going to other areas in the park such as Wildcat Camp & Alamere Falls.

Excellent spot for a hike/bike in camping. Knocked one star for the hard to find (in the dark) water source. If you choose to stay here, hope you like wind! They don't call it "Sky Camp" for nothing.
