What a great place to hike and then have a picnic. Plenty of parking and park benches. Each bench has its own fire pit to barbecue. Wonderful place.

Water in the faucet was down to a trickle and smelt really bad. Vault toilets were pretty stinky. There are good benches and fire pits and parking was available. Easy to find and close to a paved road.

If you're looking for a decent picnic area where you can day trip with a bonfire and BBQ, this is it. It is right next to the road, but makes up for it by having a good sight of scenery. Unfortunately no overnight, but not really what it's ment for. Set of vault toilets that could be cleaner. Plenty of hiking in the area as it sits on the PCT. Short hike to the best viewpoint San Diego has to of... If you're looking for a decent picnic area where you can day trip with a bonfire and BBQ, this is it.

Great trails to run. Bring water for your dog and clean up after it. Bring some vicks and earplugs if you plan to use the bathroom.
