Camp host here. This is a beautiful campground. Great "Home base" for exploring. There are flush toilets and great campsites with fire rings, firewood for sale, cash only. NO SHOWERS, NO RV WATER FILLING, NO RV DUMP STATION.

Quiet very nice. Space W76 very nice. Plenty of room for the 26rbs jayco and the truck with tons of room behind and in the shade most of the day.

Really nice campground with pretty good privacy between sites. We’ll Maintained. Basic but clean amenities. Quiet except for the sounds of the ocean.

TL;DR -Beautiful Scenery -Smallish, close together campsites with picnic table, food box, and firepit -No Showers -Little to no cell coverage. This review is for the Upper Woodside Loop Campground, and campsite 108, which I camped in. (**Note: The California State Parks reservation website, does not provide a photo of campsite 108 for some reason, so the (2) photos of the campsite in this review... TL;DR -Beautiful Scenery -Smallish, close together campsites with picnic table, food box, and firepit -No Showers -Little to no cell coverage. This review is for the Upper Woodside Loop Campground, and campsite 108, which I camped in. (**Note: The California State Parks reservation website, does not provide a photo of campsite 108 for some reason, so the (2) photos of the campsite in this review are here for you to see.) --While campsite area is rather quite beautiful, most of the campsites, including 108, are rather quite narrow/compact and close together. Some of the sites have little to no sun exposure, so if it has rain recently the sites may be soggy - I noticed that some sites were blocked off due to this. -- **The bathroom facilities do not include showers** The bathrooms were clean enough for a campground. A communal hand washing sink is just out front from the bathrooms. --There are faucets for potable water sprinkled throughout the campground, and depending on where your site is, you may have to walk a bit to get to them. Faucets are attached to posts with tops painted like red mushrooms to make them easier to see. --Bundles of wood and kindling are available for purchase from camp host. --**There was no cell coverage throughout the campground.** The closest coverage for Verizon was at the middle parking lot at Gerstle Cove. AT&T's nearest coverage was in the Sea Ranch area. --While the campground area is very beautiful, I might only recommend the Upper Woodside sites for 2-3 people with small to medium tents, and after the weather has been dry and warm for at least a week.
