Hawk Campground

+1 star for having a bathroom portapotty +2 stars for having a beautiful view (when conditions are clear) -2 or 3 stars for having tent pits that flood in the rain; like, seriously? The campsite next to me and I both had to make an emergency evacuation in the wind and rain when both our tent sites flooded at 5am. Then the 3mi walk back in the wind and rain, perfect conditions for hypothermia. -... +1 star for having a bathroom portapotty +2 stars for having a beautiful view (when conditions are clear) -2 or 3 stars for having tent pits that flood in the rain; like, seriously?

A beautiful campground just remote enough to make you feel like you’re away from it all, but close enough to the city to give some spectacular views. The hike to camp starts with a 1.5 mile constant uphill climb, so be ready for some good exercise.

A beautiful campground just remote enough to make you feel like you’re away from it all, but close enough to the city to give some spectacular views. The hike to camp starts with a 1.5 mile constant uphill climb, so be ready for some good exercise. The campground is located in a clump of trees in an otherwise brush covered hillside, the trees provide some cover but they also cause some condensation and rain if it gets foggy, so bring rain protection even if it’s not forecasted. Waking up in a cloudy mist was a real treat! The portajohn was surprisingly clean, overall would go back for another night!

Really wonderful little campground. Incredible sweeping views of the bay and the city between some hills. Dress warmer than you might expect, it gets very windy and foggy. The walk in from Tennessee valley trailhead is uphill for 2 miles, but not much of a challenge. This would be a great outing for beginner backpackers. Amenities included nice flat tent sites, picnic tables, and a bear box at e... Really wonderful little campground. Incredible sweeping views of the bay and the city between some hills.
