Leo Carrillo State Park Campground

Absolutely disappointed. Went visit a friend, gave lady at the gate location of my friend's lot. She wrote my license plate down, I asked her if I can park by their lot or at he parking lot, and she gave me green light to park by my friends lot. No additional information about where to park and where NOT to park. I PAID to get in. And yet, I got parking ticket(at the camp site) without any warning! I was not blocking anybody's way, paid for being inside. And camp side is right now, not even half full. Lady at the desk failed to properly inform me, and parking officer cowardly gain on that! Brilliant! Beware!

We stayed here over night to do a night dive. Managed to catch lobster and come back to a lovely campground and cook it on their fire pits. Amazing facilities there. Toilets were clean and showers were good. The drinking fountain didn't work sadly. Very short walk to the beach from the campground. Very picturesque. Thank you to the staff that helped us when we arrived.

We were at this campground in April 2024. This is the worst campground we have ever been to. It should not even be open. They have not made repairs caused be the 2018 flood. Half of the exit road has collapsed, the walk path to the beach that goes under the road is full of debris including the concrete pieces from the walkway that were destroyed during the flood. Our site was supposed to be a 30 foot sit. It was only 24 foot. We had to park on the opposite side of the site in order to get in. The site across the road was blocked off so no one could reserve it. This was done so we could get our rig out of our site. Grass was tall and not mowed .........

My go to local get-away spot for beach, camping, fires, hiking, and legal beer on beach as well as camp areas. Restrooms private. Showers warm w tokens. Clean. Good daytime parking and beach fun. Hard to get reservation for camping in except winter rains. Expensive. Details online State Park. Daytime beach only can park on PCH and walk on. Dangerous w kids. Use caution due to fast traffic.

Great family camp site spaces are roomy and clean. There is a table and fire pit in each camp space. Most have trees for shade and provide some privacy. There are bathrooms and paid showers. You have to get tokens for the showers and it’s only by one spot not all of them. There is a little store to buy food items and other necessities along with gifts for your trip. The beach is a 15 or less min walk and there is area for dogs too! Also a parking lot for any extra or large cars.
