I found this campground through this site, and it lived up the the reviews. This is one of the best run campgrounds I have ever stayed in. Staff and hosts were friendly and helpful. The sites were big. Everything was well maintained. This is a very large park, and we stayed six nights, and mostly stayed put - hiking all the trails.

The location was wonderful. We saw an amazing diversity of birds in the 3 days we were there. The campground itself is not great. Most of the toilets are vault toilets, and when we got there they were disgusting. Fortunately there was a real bathroom with ok showers near the entrance, which was close to our site. The sites are pretty small, with nothing separating them. My main complaint is people are noisy here! Radios were blaring. There is nothing about a quiet time. Even though we were in a hook up site, some guy nearby was running his generator starting at 6:30. I think it might have a reputation as the place to go if you do not want to be considerate of your neighbors. We were in the B loop, with a nice lake view.

It is a lovely park! The sites are a bit small, and some would not be particularly good with a trailer. Our site was quite spacious. It was a bit noisy on weekends, but not bad. There is a lot of shade, mostly from redwoods. We have a solar charger, and it was a bit of a problem, but well worth it. Without traffic, we were able to get to SF in about 45 mins. Even better - we could get to Point Reyes National Seashore in less time! (I checked the Wi-Fi box because you can get it for a fee withing a couple hundred feet of the guard station).

This is a very well run RV park. Like other people have noticed - there are a lot of signs. Do we really need to be told to flush the toilet?? The bathrooms were spotless, but the showers had poor water pressure.The location was great - we had a bay side site, and most of the time we had a lovely cool breeze. The down side of the bay view sites are that they do not back onto the bay - they back onto a park, that backs onto a bay. I do not mind the kids playing, but I did mind the constant ice cream trucks. On a Sunday afternoon there were 4 trucks - all quite loud. Often you could hear two or more. The park closes at 10:30 pm, but after dark there were loud kids playing stereos and just being rowdy. For people with really big rigs - we were dwarfed by two 45' rigs. I would definitely stay here again, but not go for a bay view site.

This is a wonderful campground. It is not an RV park - but there is one across the street - nearly 4xs the price and not as good a location. Few sites have ocean views (and would have a lot of foot traffic passing by), but they are all a short walk. I think the previous reviewer was wrong about the length limit. My site had a 30 ft limit, but other sites are longer. I saw some pretty big RVs. Also, about half the sites were occupied by RVs of some sort. You can book up to six months in advance, and the park is usually full. OTOH, if you keep checking the site, you can get cancellations. That is what we did.

I like Mcgrath. It is definitely a State Park, but it is usually easy to get reservations, unlike the other So Cal beach CGs, so we can make plans at the last moment. We have a tent trailer, so it fits, but I have seen much larger rigs in them. Some sites are surrounded by bushes, but others are more open (and less private). The beach is not really a swimming beach, but there are marsh areas for bird watching, etc.

This was our second time at this RV Park. It feels more like a wooded campground than an RV park, and that is a plus for us. Some of the sites are quite isolated. We had more contact with geese, ducks and the occasional javelina and raccoon than we did other people. I am not sure what the place would be like when it is full, but it was almost empty for our visit, and it was heaven The people are working here are very friendly and helpful. They stay on top of issues. We stayed a week, and got the 7th night free. It is well located near Sedona, but also close to other attractions like Tuzigoot, Jerome, Moctezumas Castle and Well.
