This is a very nice and quiet camp ground with great views. However we were concerned about a few things.
The #2 bathroom...mens side shower door doesn't have a secure lock on the shower door. No hand soap in the bathrooms, just hand sanitizer outside.
On our second stay, the trash cans were full and never emptied the whole weekend. It was the handicap site (23) I think...at the #2 bathroom facility.
Also wifi is very weak, even at site # 2. This is not that important, but if you offer it, boost it. A little maintenance is needed.
Other then the few things we mentioned, this campground is the perfect little get away.

Great place to get away from the Bay Area and relax for a weekend. Campground is well maintained and generally very quiet.
