I am so excited. I love camping, and we get to bring the pooch. We leave tommarrow.
We are camping on the beach, Salt Point , so it will probably be about 75 degrees, which is awesome, because it is supposed to be in the 100 degree range here.
Certainly mundane and pointless, but I had to share my joy. 
Oooh Salt Point is awesome. We have not been there for a while though. Have fun!
We’ve been camping in Guerneville since Friday.
Lots of reading, lounging, swimming, kayaking, and maybe a beer or two. 
I had to come into work yesterday and today (right now), but it’s not so bad, because I do love camping.
Salt Point looks pretty nice. We’ve camped in Gualala Point, but I don’t think we’ve ever camped at Salt Point. We’ll have to add it to the list.
Do any of you CA people know a great spot to camp around Big Sur? I’m planning next year’s trip and need some advice.
Thanks!
I spent 4 days in April at Pfeiffer Big Sur.
The drive down was gorgeous, and the park was beautiful, although my husband and I ended up not seeing as much as we’d hoped. (We got lazy one day, then rained out the next.)
Still it was a great campground. There are a few photos of the trip snapped by my pal here and here.
I was just at Salt Point two weeks ago. Great spot - check out the tidepools and seals if you’re into that.
Another good place to stay in Big Sur is Limekiln State Park - small park, but great location.
I had a great time. The tide pools were something else. Lots of fun to climb around and look at. I can’t recommend Salt Point enough. We are definitly going back next year.
Depends on what kind of camping you’re doing. The “enviromental campsites” at Pfeiffer Burns are perhaps the premier place to spend the night on the California coast, but they are walk-in, and there’s only a couple of them. Andrew Molera is another walk-in with some nice spots in a meadow with some really cool, gnarly trees.
If you’re car camping, Kirk Creek is on a bluff right on the edge of the ocean.
Big Sur Riverside Campground is a good spot for families. It has hot showers and spots right along the river.
