Place isn't really that close to the ocean like the other nicer and more affordable locations. Laundry room had sand everywhere. Pads are only 32' long so you have to park towing unit in neighbors porch area. See photos

A little gem hidden in one of the most beautiful coastlines in California. The view from our campsite down to the ocean was spectacular. We saw whales and pelicans and owls and other types of birds. The location of this park is spectacular - the beach is a three minute walk down the hill and we were particularly impressed that we could take your dogs and enjoy this little private beach all to our ourselves most of the time - it was so quiet!! Another great feature of this location is the coastal trail - a cliff top walk that takes you through the Carlton Ritz golf course and along the top of the cliffs with the most beautiful view of this rugged coastline. Definitely coming back here next time we are in half Moon Bay!!

Currently on our week long spring break vacation and this place is stunning! Beautiful, prime location and the gentleman that's been working the store/campground the last few days has been incredibly kind/personable. The beach down the trail is absolutely gorgeous, being just down the road from the Rits it looks like a scene right out of a movie. The campground is emmaculate and laid back to boot....

Great little rv park with great management. Bathroom/showers were clean and the shower was large enough to accommodate anyone. The beach is absolutely gorgeous.

I stayed here for a week, it was four days before I saw sunshine. The drive around the mountains was not too bad. The resort is very well maintained and the staff are really friendly and accommodating. They assisted me in the set-up and breakdown of my RV.

I stayed here for a week, it was four days before I saw sunshine. The drive around the mountains was not too bad. The resort is very well maintained and the staff are really friendly and accommodating. They assisted me in the set-up and breakdown of my RV. The only negative I have, is having to back into the spots.😬 The office/store has many supplies, snacks and drinks. I didn't have a coaxial cable and they let me borrow one so I could watch cable TV. Great views of the Pacific ocean and golf course on the ocean hillside. The Ritz Carlton on Miramontes Point is spectacular. There was also a nudist beach pretty well hidden on other side of beach but the hike down to the beach was 6.5 miles, yep, I passed.😬🤣 I would definitely stay here again.
