Excellent campsite! It has the perfect amount of amenities to be comfortable while still feeling remote. Campsites are nicely spaced and we woke up to wild elk in camp! Bear valley to wild cat was a good climb/decent but friends hiked in from Palomarin and it was easy enough for young kids to do.

This campground was nestled in an opening surrounded by trees but little to no shade when the sun passes overhead. We stayed at site 9, it was pretty tight but perfect for two- 2 person tents and very flat and level. Bathroom and water supply were sufficient. Overall it was a great stay, would recommend!

Point Reyes National Seashore is absolutely beautiful! I did an one-night backpacking trip starting at Palomarin Trailhead. I did a loop following the Lake Ranch Trail, stayed at Glen Camp, and then followed the Coast Trail back. The highlight of the trip was the coastal views, especially at Wildcat Camp and the Ocean Lake overlook. The weather was great for November, just be prepared for wet vegetation and mud in the rainforest section. This stretch is a little overgrown. There's lots of wildlife in the park--banana slugs and newts abound so watch your step. Next time I visit I'll stay at Wildcat Camp and explore more of the coast. I wanted to hike to Alamere Falls, but the tide was rising when I reached the beach. All in all a must-visit in NorCal!
