We stayed in February 2018. Small park, quiet, very friendly and helpful staff. Some long term travelers. Small lawn with picnic benches, river or stream on one side. I am a newbie and it took me a while to back in a 25’ Airstream but I did it. The sewer hook ups were too far back for our hose - same for the 27’ next to us. We mention... more

With only 40+ spots, all full hookups (no tent camping), this park has everything you need as your base to explore Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur.
