Pinnacles Campground

There are mostly pluses to this campground. I usually try and the spots in the outer loops furtherest from the road and the group sites. People are pretty good about quieting down I just like these sites as they are right against the wilderness. Often Wild Turkeys, coyotes or even bob cats can stroll by. A little pro tip if you are coming to climb - get up early and even think about sending up a biker before the road opens to the park as the climbing sites fill quickly in the AM. Best times of year are Spring and Fall here - espically spring for wildflowers!

Pinnacles campground's best features is proximity to the park. In addition to regular drive up tent sites, they have tent cabins, RV sites and group sites.

The majority of the sites do not have shade--bad in the summer, but good in cooler weather! Site #37 is large and has more shade than any other but low hanging tree branches made it very hard to pop up the roof top camper on our van. Would be great for a tent.

There is a small swimming pool on site, though it was pretty poorly maintained when we were there (summer 2021). Pay showers as well, but also not in the best shape. The camp store was very well stocked and the park office had a VERY helpful staff person full of historical information!
