Great place to camp when visiting the Monterey area. I stayed multiple times for 3 days at a time. The campground does fill up so arrive mid-morning to noon for your best chance. If you don’t want to deal with the hairpin turns coming up Jefferson, take hwy 1 to 68 west and come in that way. Sites are spaced closely and you’ll need to ... more

This is a comfortable campground but sticklers on everything. Myself and my guests were awaken by the camp attendant Bill multiple times during odd hours of the night over a minor issue that most definitely could’ve waited for daylight. Other than that our stay was fine. Campgrounds are clean but remember you are in Monterey so if you’... more

We were hopeful from previous reviews that a polite ask for an exception would allow our 32’ class A to stay for the 3 day minimum. Unfortunately it didn’t but because it was already dark, the ranger said we could stay overnight. No 3 day stay would be possible. Particularly a bummer because we got in just fine to the spaces but rules ... more

This is a great place to camp in Monterey. Hiking trails with awesome ocean views. Nice bathrooms with hot showers. Get there early. The sites fill up fast. We got there at 2:00pm and by 4 all the sites were full. 1.5 mile walk to everything downtown. We will stay here again. Great for small rigs not so nice for larger rigs. T-Mobile 2... more

I don't have much to add to what other reviewers have said about the logistics or amenities of the park, but I can add another voice to vouch for the friendliness of the staff. The staff on duty gave us permission to stay beyond the 3 day limit (just asked that we move sites) and also allowed us to stay even though our camper was beyon... more

We camped in our pop-up camper 3 nights while kayaking in the Monterey area. Site 21 gave us a quiet spot to unload out boats and hang out. A 1/2 hour walk down the hill on quiet local streets got me to Trader Joe's to pick up a few missed items. Adequate showers included, clean facilities.

Our rig PeeWee is 33 feet long and we tow a little Nissan Versa. We made it up the long, steep hill to the campground and found a site that looked like we could fit. We set up camp and thought it was all good. The bad news was that the camp host (nice gentleman) asked us to move. He said normally they don’t take large RV’s but he wo... more

Great park right in the middle of Monterey. No problem fitting our 26’ Airstream and there were more open spots that can fit larger (medium sized) RVs and trailers. Tons of tent campers as well. We arrived mid-day Thursday and had our pick of sites. Later that night and through the day on Friday it pretty much filled up. I would rec... more

As other reviewers have mentioned, this is a campground for smaller rigs and tents. The drive up to the campground is steep, windy, and narrow. The road climbs through a beautiful neighborhood nestled into a dense forest. The campground itself is also nestled into the forest - there are few level or uniform sites. This is no big de... more

Great place to post up in Monterey. Plenty of sites in the trees or next to a park used by local families. There are some rough folk that also use the free facilities, but they never presented a problem. The manager runs a tight ship.
