It's a nice place to take your RV and spend your day relaxing, be aware of the oil like substance on the beach, my kids came back with their feet plastered with dark sticky stuff, we noticed a few dead birds on the sand with the same substance all over their feathers, not sure if this contributed to their death.

Small clean beach campsite Ventura County with good point break surf. Little cramped but nothing too bad. Onsite burger hut. Close to Carpinteria where you'll find three breweries, Brew Lab being the better of the three for craft beer.

We RV camped here. There are some full hookup sites and mostly no hookup sites. THERE IS NO WATER FOR RVs in the no hookup sites so don't come empty unless you have full hookups. It's a great location on the southern California coast but the sites are tight. They have a little grill with pizza and burgers but we haven't tried it yet. The day parking fills up fast and it's a popular place for surfers. And if you have an RV site along the rocks expect the back of your rig to get splashed by salt water at high tide. Like anywhere along the coast, it's close parking but we enjoyed our stay.

Ridiculously expensive for what it is. More expensive than the sites right on the beach in LA. Sites are so tinyt hat I had to move both the picnic table AND the fire ring to fit my 30' class C. Then, there was no room to park my tow behind small car, and no where to park it, with all the available parking spots reserved for 'day use' visitors. Oh, and they neglect to tell you, that in spite of the name, there really is no beach, just rocks, BIG ROCKS, so a 'beach' experience it's not. And, the much heralded pizza shop was closed the day we were there in the middle of the week. Other campers were very friendly, but that's about the only nice thing I can say. Well, that and the sunset was very nice.

This is a small campground, which is great. The only negative thing I can say is that the spots are too close together, but in all honesty, every camper here has been amazing and friendly! The Park Rangers patrol all the time, which helps keep the riffraff out. When the tide is high, it can crash over the wall, but you're at the beach so you should expect it. When the tide is low, it's a great beach to get away from the crowds. Yes you can hear the train, but you can also hear the ocean waves. And the sunsets are amazing. The only thing that could improve this camp ground would be if less people knew about it.

Absolutely beautiful! Very friendly. Be careful in the shower as the floors are very slippery and there are no rails on the wall. The little Hobson store is not a store at all but a delicious grill! Should change the name to Hobson grill shack. We will definitely be back!!!

The date is December 3, off season for the beach park. Nice quiet place to relax. Very clean and well maintained. Friendly environment and friendly people. Good quality food at the Grill.

Hobson is a great spot to camp if you can get one of the good spots. We got one with a view of a block wall but next to us they had an ocean view. The little hamburger shack is great. Price is fantastic.

This was our first time staying here and we stayed 2 nights. Views of the coast are beautiful! The sites are quiet tight and the lines that are supposed to mark each specific campsite are not clear. On the plus side the people who were also camping here were very friendly :) The bathrooms and showers need some attention as they are dated and not very clean. There is no dump station nor water available to fill your fresh water tank. However, there is a service that comes to the campground that offer water and pumping on certain days of the week. There was no place to check-in and the camp host was never seen nor returned our phone call. The ranger came by daily but never walked the premises just drove off.
