Stayed at Glen and Sky. Glen was a bit wet and the water was brownish but Sky was perfect as always.

I loved this trail and campground. Very doable hike with well maintained trails. Horse poop was present but very avoidable on the trail! Over two days we saw 121 banana slugs! Campground was gorgeous and well maintained--camp bathrooms were a little smellier than other bathrooms on the trailhead. I would 100% recommend this trip to anyone who is thinking about it and recommend campsite 2 as well.

We biked in via the Coast Trail. We brought two little kids in a bike trailer and had packs on our bike. For anyone planning to bike, there is one fairly steep drop to cross over a stream, and then a steep climb back up. The rest of the trail is easy biking with slight elevation change.
We loved our time at Coast Campground. We got hit by a storm in the night, but the sun came out the next morning and dried all of our equipment before we had to leave. We saw whales off the coast, had deer in our campsite, heard coyotes in the night, and saw a banana slug. It was beautiful and peaceful.
We hiked to the tide pools, played in the streams, and hiked along the cliff top. Wish we would have stayed another night.

Site 4, like other reviews have said, is fully visible from the passing trail way. I pitched my single person tent behind the picnic table to get some privacy. The space for tents is situated on a slanted elevation, so I don't think water would pool up there too bad at all. It did rain on the morning of departure and my footprint collected some water on the flat spot by the table. As far as food storage goes, the bear bin is brand new! The trash collection was halted due to the truck being in maintenance so it was a pack-in pack-out situation. The trash receptacles are permanent fixtures with bear-proof lids w/ separate chutes for recycle and whatnot. Potable water spigots are at sites 8 and near the dual outhouse between sites 9 & 12.
Great Campground! Caught some fish :) (be careful, the surf can get rough and pull a person out here)

Everything was excellent, including the weather. Hike to Glenn campground with 40 lb pack was difficult for an old geezer, but not impossible. Hike to beach and waterfall was beautiful and well worth it - and easier without a backpack. Take hiking trail back - beautiful.
One recommendation - installing lending libraries at each camp ground

even though it was cold temperatures and one night with pouring rain and strong winds, most campsites, both at Sky and Coast camps were occupied, so plan well ahead to reserve a site for a wonderful Pt. Reyes experience.

The new concrete tables are cold at night but so nice not to have old wood/splintery tables and the new bear boxes are amazing - mice aren't going to get your food anymore so you don't have to bring a bear canister.

I have been to Wildcat Camp many times but haven't been to Coast Camp in many years. I had forgotten how lovely this campsite is. One of our days was very windy; and Coast Camp is not as protected from the wind as Wildcat Camp, but there was a lovely spot on the way down to the beach where we could get out of the wind and hang out by the creek inlet; almost like a little mini oasis. What really made the trip was seeing whales just 50 yards offshore. I followed them north for a full 10 minutes before turning back. It was a magical experience.
