While there are no flushing toilets and some sites may be hot or slanted, most visitors enjoyed their spacious spots and the close proximity to the river for swimming.

A wonderful campground for a quiet weekend getaway! The camp host was friendly and helpful, and the portable toilets were exceptionally clean. There was plenty of wildlife in and around the campground — we saw Great Horned Owls, Ospreys, and Deer. A peaceful and enjoyable stay!

Beautiful, well shaded camp ground. No flushing toilets but there were porta potties. I brought Clorox wipes and that helped. The camp hostess was very friendly and welcoming. She was very informative and helpful, and so sweet with the kids! The only reason I took off one star is because it was HOT. When I think Santa Barbara, I think cool weather, but this is about 25 minutes away from the beach. This would be a perfect campsite in the springtime after snow melts to fill the river and cooler weather during the day. We will likely come back to this beautiful campsite, but plan better time of year

Nice campsite, very spacious and lots of shade. From all the other surrounding campsites, 007 was the best. The floor is a bit unleveled but not too bad. The kids had a blast at the red rock river and playing soccer at our site. The only reason why I did not give it a five star rating is because there are no flushing toilets or showers. There were only porta potties that quickly got nasty. But besides that, the camp host was very nice and provided great guidance on how to get to the river. There is campfire wood available for sale. I do recommend this site 👍🏼.

Nice site! We were worried about being within eye/earshot of the road but cars went by so infrequently it didn't matter. Still had a lovely sunset and lots of birdsong in the morning. Wood is $10 per bundle at the camp host. Bathrooms are currently under construction so get ready for port-a-johns.

Site was clean upon arrival.
Host was nice and helpful.
I wish it was mentioned that bathrooms were out of service.

It was dry and dusty, not the green fields Recreation.gov shows, the only places to park are under the oak trees that drop acorns on your car the whole time. However this campsite was so peaceful and quiet at night ( off season) I did enjoy it.

We had a great spot, no.7 and there was heaps of space. No one around us on our side of the access road. Excellent campground for tent camping. Our stay was very quiet but that was in Nov.
