A good place to camp in southern California?




Dana


Last year a group of us went camping at lake hemet and we loved it. We want to go again this year but want to try somewhere new. We want somewhere we can swim, fish and we'll be in tents. Any suggestions? I might add that we'd prefer to have bathrooms as well.


Answer
Try camping at Campland on the Bay in San Diego in Pacific Beach. It is a very cool place. I've camped and fished and swam and camped in tents there many times. This place has pee-pee things on the wall and poo-poo toilets where they should be. Plus they are clean. They supply the TP.

Seriously this is a nice place. There are nice fishing spots nearby. Actually if you just get up early enough you can catch fish right in front of your tent.

Look at the pics at their site.: http://campland.com/

my friend and I already left and are at San Simeon State park. We were shocked when we arrived to find that the entire place is very open, not wooded at all, lame ass RVs, and other assorted nonsense. We are looking for the nearest campsites that are wooded (preferably thickly wooded) dirt paths instead of roads, you know the whole camping experience instead of the camping 'resort' nonsense


Answer
This time of year you'll not find a lot of wooded camping places. Those at lower elevations are not deeply wooded as a rule.

The places at higher elevations are wooded but still covered with snow at this time of year. Most of those sites are closed for the season. Check out California State Parks. Specifically looking for primitive campsites to find what you are looking for.

National Forests and National Parks will offer more primitive or tent sites but again the more wooded ones are at higher elevations and most are closed until spring.

You are on the coast, you'll find that the wooded locations are more inland and at higher elevations.
