Too Crowded for Me
I think this place is a little too loved. We have the Sonoma Regional pass, so it’s free to stop in for quick visits. On a recent Sunday, the parking was tough, though it is usually out of the wind...
Nice place right on the bay.
We spent 5 days at the RV park right on the bay. Walking the beach was great. Had a great time at the Fisherman Festival and watched the blessing of the fleet. The weather was good and listening to...
Great day trip or camping as well! If camping get your reservations "way in advance"
Way in advance....means 6-12 months early if you like to pick your spot. One year in advance for busy holidays and most Fall weekends. Great site for day trips and camping.
