“coastal camping near Fort Ross”

This 210 acre park offers picnic facilities and a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean from Stillwater Cove. The park has open meadows mixed with coastal forest. There is a half-mile trail leading to the historic one-room Fort Ross Schoolhouse. Stillwater Cove is popular with small boat operators, skin and scuba divers and abalone divers, as it provides ocean access and a small beach. A beach launch facility is available for people to load and off load their boats or kayaks. A portage to the Cove and the ocean is within a short walking distance of the launch. The launch is open throughout the year. No parking is available at the cove itself. Parking is available at Stillwater Cove Regional Park's day use parking lot.

Beautiful small clean and safe. Helpful camp hosts, good rates. No hookups, but water, flush toilets, hot showers and a dump station are all available for campers. A low key gem on Hwy 1.

This is our go to campground. Many activity's from ocean kayaking, fishing, beachcombing at the cove, hiking. Sites are great for small trailers or tents. Great place to abalone dive when season ever opens back up.

We have stayed here many times. Site 3 is small for our 23 foot trailer but had room for three tents. Fishing and whale watching was at it best. I kayak from the cove and fish out in the open ocean. The staff and campground host are great.

We’ve been here a few times dry camping. Cell service on the Sonoma coast is practically nonexistent.
However, there seems to be a big improvement. Verizon now has 2 bars and download speeds approaching 2mps…minimal for streaming your favorite content. (There’s a huge cell tower complex a few miles up north on CA Hwy 1). Don’t know about other carriers.
As to camping…just perfect!
Be aware that site #3’s picnic table and fire ring is backwards and it’s best to park nose-in.
Also, no camp host as of this posting.
Bring plenty of drinking water, as ranger and signs say that their potable supply needs to be boiled.

This is my first time at this park and this is my first review. There are only about 20 spots for rv’s. Most of the spots are paved. Most back in, but there were at least 2 pull through spots. We were in #13. This is a nice spot if you don’t have a pop out on the drivers side. It was a struggle to get off the road enough so as not to block the main traffic. Dry camping. The water faucets warn to boil water due to fecal contamination. There are showers and restrooms there at least two in the area where we stayed. I want to return and camp here again though. The beach is a short 10 minute walk away. There are hiking trails with much nature. I hiked up to the old fort Ross school house to check it out. Each site has a fie ring with grate, animal proof food locker. Garbage and recycle bins close by that are shared between campsites.

Great place. Love how close it is to the beach in the cove. Also, there are a couple very nice hikes in the canyon and another out to the small cliffs above the beach (good spot for watching a sunset).
Staff and camp host friendly, welcoming and helpful. Adequate showers and restrooms.
There was a water advisory when we stayed here (e-coli traces in the water supply) but it was highlighted on the park website so we prepared by bringing plenty of our own water.

One of our favorites on our trip up Hwy 1. Stayed here one night as a plan b when we couldn’t get into Salt Point until the next day. Would have stayed longer if we’d known how nice it was. The campground is small but beautiful. We even had electricity at our site (#10). Bathrooms are clean, but the showers were semi-functional. Dumpsite ($7.00). The one drawback is there is no drinking water available, which is why I gave it four instead of five stars.
There are several hikes nearby. We walked the trail down to the beach; a beautiful walk through redwoods to a gorgeous little cove (.3 miles).

Beautiful small, clean and safe campground. Camp hosts available for assistance. No hookups, but water and dump available for campers. Beautiful 1/4 hike to the cove, through a grove of redwoods. Lots of parking available in the day use area. Hot showers and flush potties at the campground. A real gem!
