Morro Strand State Campground Drive Thru & Review

[@markwilliamson2795]

There are no showers at this old converted parking lot , This was Atascadero Beach back in the day.. I guess you could rinse off with a bucket at one of the water outlets to be found throughout the park ...just make sure to wear your bathing suit....lol...

Do you remember seeing water spigot to fill the tank?

[@WebbTime]

I was in full hookup section SO there was water and power. However, I do believe there were water spigots in the other sites as well.

[@George-nx8zu]

Any suggestions on what the best campsites were?

[@WebbTime]

We have always stayed along the back row away from the water with the hillside behind. All of those have been fine although we try to pick sites away from the campground bathrooms to avoid all that activity.

[@Slim20C]

Is this for RV camping only? Can you tent camp there?

[@WebbTime]

Yes, there are tent camping sites as well.

How far away are the dog beaches?

[@markwilliamson2795]

Dog beach is a short walk to the North...just past the rocky point there...

Be careful around the Morro Bay campground...a few of the Calif State Park Rangers are overly aggressive , The campground is open 24 hours I was stopped by Ranger " B . E " as I drove into the campground in the early morning. He took 15 mins to run my drivers license and registration then he wrote me a $100 dollar ticket for " Non payment of camping fees " I explained to him he watched me drive into the park 15 mins ago and the normal procedure is find a empty space then write the space number on the after hours envelope then deposit that in the " Iron Ranger " or take your spot then wait till morning when the gate booth is open for payment by debit or credit card. And that is the job of the Campground host to tell people that at 7 am. that have not paid. Then he proceeded to ban me from the campground for 24 hours. While I was leaving I stopped at the gate pay booth to read the rules he pulled up on me again as I stood there and told me to get away from there I was banned from the park for 24 hours. My court date is written 4 months away from now for Grover Beach Court off Grand Ave. This seems way out of line to me I had done nothing wrong and was doing as any person wanting to go camp would do. So I would say to you be very careful but then again I had done nothing wrong...For those from out of town I don't think you would come back from your home town to pay for his overly aggressive ticket writing. And you pay nearly 3 times original ticket cost for not wanting to appear in court . I write this here to hopefully keep him from becoming more aggressive and maybe hurting someone or bringing a huge lawsuit against the State of Calif & City of Morro Bay . Calif State Park Ranger " K " is not far removed in her aggressive ticket writing ......anyone else have this problem ?
