Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
Tree studded campsites with large view of the ocean. Not far off Hwy 1. Many beaches to choose from a few miles away. Close to Anchor Bay, Gualala and Point Arena. Large secluded sites with picnic tables and plenty of room to pitch a tent. Porta potty and potable water available. Great place to get away. Please note ticks are always prevalent on the coast and Spring time there are more of them please make sure you and your dog are protected.

Site 1 - Ocean View Campsites
this was a beautiful spot to tent camp with my dog! great views, sea lions barking, nestled in redwoods over the pacific. it was SUPER windy when we arrived and hard to get the tent up, but thankfully the wind died down a few hours later. the sink area for washing stuff is very helpful too.

Site 3 - Ocean View Campsites
Great for Casual Campers
Great little campsite scross the highway from the ocean. Not a ton of sun cover on campsite 3 midday, but it was perfect in the morning and evening. The shared sink was a nice touch and made dishes much easier. The tables and fire pits needed some attention and a bit of repair, but it’s nothing that prevented a great time. There isn’t a ton of privacy and we did hear some music from the other sites, but everyone was respectful. The highway noises didn’t bother me and were infrequent, and you could hear the sea lions a lot better than expected! Great for weekend getaways.

Site 3 - Ocean View Campsites
Nice spot just off of hwy 1 with great sunset views (from campsite #1). The porta potties and sink for cleanup were nice to have close by. Though close to the hwy, it was surprisingly quiet and you could hear the sea lions in the early morning.

Site 3 - Ocean View Campsites
Great site. Stayed at site 3. Beautiful views. Could see the ocean through the trees. Could hear the waves at night. Site 1 has the best view. Site 3 is the biggest area. I will definitely be planning a future trip. Oh and the stars at night. The stars were beautiful.

Site 2 - Ocean View Campsites
Great site, fit our needs well. The site was pretty sloped which was tricky for two tents. I would recommend site 3 for the flatter spot. They had a sink for dishes and portable bathrooms which were fairly clean and helped a ton.
