Top favorite places to escape to. It’s quiet on the trails. Campgrounds can be lively but a 10pm shut up order helps enjoy the rest of the night. If you see a golf cart heading to your site and you are rowdy, I bet it’s 10pm. The park hosts are awesome. I was helped by Kerri and Sydney. Both were detailed in their information and availability. Kerri is like this awesome Mom who puts things, pets, people back on track without anyone really noticing. She’s the iron fist holding a daisy. Sydney is energetic, almost always smiling. I’ve seen her deal with difficult situations that were not so easy to fix. She’s a golf cart warrior and her pug is the cutest (I personally don’t enjoy pugs but …. I do now!). His name is Biscuit Smushy Bushka Wolf. He can run faster than any other animal that I’ve seen that close to the ground. Oh and the park 👌🏻 gorgeous place. Always has been.

Gorgeous park that is great for tent campers or small RVs. The rangers were very friendly and informative. The trails are beautiful so plan on doing some of the hikes that lead from the day use areas here. If you are RVing make sure you leave time to come from the North or South on Route 12....or else you will be going over some extremely winding narrow roads from Oakville area. Many of the campsites are incredibly beautiful but not level for a vehicle so choose wisely if you need a flat driveway. The showers are coin operated and even though there were hardly any campers, they were freezing cold.

A hidden gem in Sonoma. Hiked to the summit of Bald Mountain. It's a 3 mile trek all up hill or 4 miles if you take the less steep option. Superlative views.

This is an easily accessible park with a number of hiking trails as well as an observatory. A popular, and easy, hike is to the seasonal waterfall along Sonoma Creek. In 2025, spawning salmon were seen for the first time in many years. For those looking for a longer hike, there are multiple trails leading to the top of Bald Mountain. The reward for tackling this steep climb is a wonderful 360 view of Sonoma, Napa, Marin, and Contra Costa counties. Stargazing is poplar due to low levels of light pollution. And there are often events at the observatory.
