Even though nestled off the road, traffic noise was not an issue. The owner lives nearby and is available for anything (even bringing you quarters).

Plus they even have a station set up to paint rocks! We will definitely return, and highly recommend!

Everyone was very friendly. Not many amenities, but we had our full hook-ups and use of the bathroom facilities which is really all we needed as we were out most of the time. The park is super close to downtown which was a plus. We had issues with our power as we had to convert from 50 to 30amp, but I think our rig was just too powerful which is not the parks fault. Everything else was great! We were told there is a cool hiking trail and creek but we did not experience that for ourselves. Definitely a cute little spot to stay close to town!

We found this cozy little campground in Boulder Creek and spent a perfect weekend there. It felt…read moremore like glamping than primitive camping, with amenities such as hot showers, clean restrooms, a swimming pool, some gaming activities, and hiking trails nearby as the resort is catered to RV's and trailers. However, there are no fire pits at the tent sites so bring a portable fire pit! The staff was incredibly friendly, and we truly had everything we needed for a fun and relaxing retreat. We'll definitely be back!

I really love KOA campgrounds. This one is a hidden little spot between Monterey and Santa Cruz,…read moreless than a 1/2 hour drive to each. Really nice staff, very clean and safe. The spots are very close to each other, but this is a small campground, maybe 50 spots. The KOA person guided us into our spot, made it easy because if it was just me and the wife... well you know! Moss landing is an old fishing town, very small, abut very historical and interesting to walk around. The ocean beach is walking distance from the campground. I will return to this place, very safe and very secluded. Nice clean laundry room, landscaping is beautiful, location is in a very secluded area in the farming community. Very tight spots, you are really close to your neighbor. But that's OK, this is a place you stay at, and go out during the day to see the sites around the area. There is no stores or restaurants in the area. Only one deli (which is really good but only open to 3pm). So you will need to have food and supply with you.

I am a big fan of KOA and have stayed at all of the three levels that I thought they had up till…read morenow. This one is a small KOA - the manager tells me it's the first KOAExpress. The other levels, journey, destination and resort are increasingly fancy, but generally have some kind of market, a cafe or restaurant, pools, jacuzzis and the like - more so at the higher levels. Well, this one was a fraction of the size of most of those. it was very well kept, nice level paved sites, excellent bathrooms - two full bathrooms, where you get your own toilet, sink and shower and door It's essentially located right in the harbor, there's a gate that will get you to the docks. Including all the whale watching boats . A bunch of sea lions were my neighbors on a rock on the other side of the fence. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance as well, so that makes up for not having one on site

We checked in this past Fri-Sun and had a nice time overall. We forgot a pot and some lady at Registration (sorry didnt catch name) let us borrow one for the weekend! Saved us a trip and expense. Security Sat evening was very cool about some issues they had with our parking and noise. They weren't aggressive like some can be at other places. But more importantly, the 2 guys working Registration Sat/Sunday morning. I cut myself pretty bad and had to go to the ER but Dusty immediately jumped into bandaging me up well enough. They were both very cool about it. I was worried they were going to make it a huge deal but handled it very calmly and discreetly ..thanks everyone!!

This is a very clean and well maintained campin/ RV park spot. They also have a tent camping area…read more As well as small cabins and house keeping tents. We did RV and tent camping in our spot. 6 people maximum with RV hook ups and a platform area for the tent. The bathrooms were steps away and toilets and showers always clean. Some have additional fire place with sauna area for free. The spots are very close to each other they do not waste space. Each area comes with a fire pit. So privacy can be tough as well as noise. You must be mindful most days at 10pm everyone was quiet and asleep. There is a drink cart that came on our last day (Thursday afternoon) and sold stiff adult beverages. For about 20 a pop. One left me side ways- not complaining!!! :) The little convenience store has a bit of everything. Merch, food, souvenirs and wine. As well as goat food pellets. They have daily activities for kids and corn hole. The bar was closed these day but the more formal restaurants was open. It's a 20-25 walk to the beach after crossing the busy freeway- be careful. Very secluded and quiet there also. Closest thing is the Lighthouse 3 miles away. All and all a great organization just a tad on the boring side if you want more action but very peaceful and relaxing.

I like to rough it a bit more in a tent with a more natural setting. This place gets packed on weekends and I found the spacing to be too dense. Like neighbors all around 360 and just within feet of each other. But ya know what this is a gripe from a tent camper who chooses places based on spacing and density. Also every RV camper is used to this style of camping. They prefer convenience over solitude, to each their own. I will say that for as packed as this place gets, the campers are all good natured and considerate. No loud after hours noise/partying, no blaring of music and I didn't even hear any buzzes from a generator. Kids playing all over the place, which I love to see. The park offers great services like they'll deliver firewood or a fire pit to any site. They have a general store up front and the grounds are immaculate. There are bathrooms with showers if one didn't want to use the RV version. And the clincher for me on why I would recommend this campsite to anyone interested are the aesthetics. Their name truly is accurate...they are dead smack in the middle of a redwood forest. Even the dozens of monster RVs that are there are all in the shadows of a majestic redwood forest. There's even a nice creek that flows through the resort where people can wade, play and relax. Even though not my cup of tea, I can still acknowledge and appreciate what this place brings. And I'm glad it is there for others.

Very family oriented as lots of kids on scooters having the time of their lives. Even though lots of kids were there, the place is still very peaceful and quiet. There's is a nice clubhouse with a kitchen area, sofa and games such as fooseball and shuffleboard. Several board games as well. The deck has plenty of tables for eating or just hanging out. The San Lorenzo river is right there and just beautiful. Easy to walk down to the river. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. I love their little store- it has the right amount of miniature basics and there is also ice cream pints and the most delicious ice cream sandwiches. The other bonus is that you can burn a real wood fire at night! Will definitely keep coming back!
