"Beautiful stay any time of the year. We saw a lot of marine life this time at Pleasure Point- otters, sea lions, harbor seals, flocks of birds and couldn’t discern if they were dolphins or sharks feeding! We were efficiently assisted with a few needs (more TP, dishwasher soap, fireplace lighter/directions.)Close proximity to Capitola and beach/boardwalk is always fun.Bedroom size/location for a friend vs family stay is the only challenge, which we solve by taking turns."

When we arrived at what was the campsite area, it wasn't very clear trying to find our site (8A).

The bathrooms were functional, and I could use the sink to wash dishes, but the showers were not...
