Great beginner backpacking

This was our first backpacking trip and we mostly wanted to test our gear. This was perfect for that. 5-mile hike in with some uphill in the last 1.5 miles that was challenging but not too hard. Site 3 was relatively private, shady in the morning and evening. Site 2 was very pretty but shady. Site 10 is exposed to everyone with no privacy. Really nice to have toilets and potable water there. Overall very happy with our first trip!

Hidden in the woods

A nice place to stay for backpacking. Site 8 was a little bit secluded and away from other sites. The site was smallish and had a fox box and picnic table. Water and vault toilet provided in the campground. Quaint and cozy overall.

Clean and simple site

We stayed at site 4 and it was relatively private. Site 1 and 2 have the most shade. There is water and it doesn't have any weird taste. Vault toilets, trash, and recycling are also present.

Wet/cold

Some sites are dry and get some sun. 5-8 are more private than others, but 8 gets 0 sun. Mud/cold. Not fun.

Simple and Basic

A 5 mile hike from the Bear Valley Trailhead leading to a small campground with 12 sites. We stayed at #9. Potable water and vault toilets are available, with each site also having a picnic table, charcoal barbecues and bear boxes. Wood fires are not permitted. A stream runs beside the campground and there are hiking trails leading to the sea.

Beautiful, quiet, woodsy campsite that feels more remote than it is

Hiked in here from Bear Valley Visitor Center for a quick overnight to try out some new camping equipment. Most of the walk (less than 5 miles) is on the flat Bear Valley Trail, followed by some brisk uphill on the Glen Trail.

The campground is quiet, 12 sites arranged in the trees around a small bare field with toilets and a water faucet. When we visited, there was a notice that tap water had to be filtered.

Most individual sites are well-screened by shrubs and trees. There are some nettles and poison oak, but if you don't know what these look like, you probably should find out. We saw lots of wildlife and the stargazing was first-rate, even though you could see the distant glow of civilization in the night sky.

From Glen Camp, it's an easy hike down to the spectacular Coast Trail.

Loved the nature!

We went this past weekend. Beautiful weather, not too hot. It was a hike-in camp site called sky camp. It was a 1.3 mile hike uphill so that was pretty rough. It was our first time going to a hike-in camp site. The site (003) was perfect. You couldn’t see the next camper, very secluded, you could hear them, but it wasn’t an issue at all. The site we had was a short walk to the restrooms and water fountain with potable water. We did a morning hike and the trails were absolutely stunning. It was quite a ways to be able to see the ocean, so we didn’t actually complete the hike but got very close. We probably won’t be doing a hike-in any time soon, because our kids are not fan of it (13,11 and 8) but for adults it’s doable. The seclusion and beauty you get is well worth it!

Point Reyes is breathtaking... If you go camping one place this is it

Point Reyes is HUGE! There are a half dozen camping spots in this beautiful park. Tomales Bay is a boat in only campground on Indian Beach a unique experience if you have access to a boat.

There are plenty of drive or walk in sites if you don't have a boat. Pick your terrain the coast, meadow, or woods and there is a campground for you.

You can easily spend a week here with all of the trails, horseback riding, mountain biking and kayaking options.

Some of the best nature on the West Coast of the US

California, Washington and Oregon have lovely coast but this location is truly unique! Besides the quality of the locations and the nature and wildlife afforded you, the distance between spots is just incredible. Within walking distance from any one camp site or beach is another one. You could see all of Marin in a week without even touching a car if you were so inclined to do some hiking!

The two lighthouses are splendid excursions, Samuel P Taylor Park is a must for easy fun camping and some good small river access. Kehoe and North Beach are always empty and incredibly vast while Stinson gives you a bit of the packed beach and fun crowd vibe along with a great snack shack in the middle and beautiful rentals and B and B's just off the sand.

Make sure to check out the dunes at Limontour and if possible the cliffs of Drakes Beach!
