Overall Rating:

Been coming here for over 30 yrs. One of our favorite beach campgrounds

However, we are unhappy that they have shut off the power in bathrooms. You cannot run a shaver or hair dryer. They have also let the grass and many bushes die.

In addition, although the campground was at least one-third empty and showed available sites on-line, they posted the campground Full. Even though there were empty sites for the 3 nites we were staying, they would not let us switch sites. They also refuse to let you check in before 2PM, even if your site is empty. They make you wait in the parking lot. Seems like a lot of rules imposed for sole convince of the management.

The rangers in charge of this campground sometimes forget they are hosting people on vacation. A little flexibility, like all other State campgrounds we've been to is needed. The power in the bathrooms should be turned on. What right do they have to turn off the power? I don't remember the nightly fee being lowered due to the reduced services! The State needs to replace the management here! We camped at Doheny State Beach in a Motorhome.
