Less than 30 mins from Santa Barbara. Nice trails going down further Paradise Road - Aliso Canyon Trail is nice.

Very nice campground. Went in early spring and everything was so green. The oaks are magnificent. Wild turkeys everywhere.The campground itself was very well maintained and the bathrooms were cleaned regularly. Will definitely be back, just watch out for poison oak!

Best campground we’ve ever been to (and we’re old!). Beautiful tree canopy, green grass and wild turkeys. We’ll be going back. Don’t miss Aliso trail hike, wine tasting in Los Olivos and lunch at Cold Springs Tavern.

Lovely campground. The trees are gorgeous. I am highly allergic to poison oak so I didn't hike there, but it is a great location.

Great campsite. Restrooms are very clean and always in service. Sites are near each other but it’s not too bad.

What a pleasant surprise to roll into such a beautiful, well kept campground. Being March, it was verdant and mild. We enjoyed the sight and sound of wild turkeys. The bathrooms were clean, potable water abundant and the vibe mellow and quiet. We'd come to mountain bike, and the trail heads were just a 3.5 mile away on the road. Los Prietos was great!
