About

Fees
California State Parks (ReserveCalifornia.com) does not publish one statewide nightly rate schedule; its own Booking and Fees page states rates 'vary based on the accommodation type and the amenities available at that park' and are posted per-park at booking time. A non-refundable $8.25 reservation fee (also $8.25 to modify or cancel) applies per ReserveCalifornia transaction, on top of the site's nightly rate. Fees include entry for one vehicle and one legally towed vehicle/trailer; additional vehicles are charged per-night at the park. This park has no park-specific pet policy published on its own page; California State Parks' statewide policy (parks.ca.gov/Dogs) applies: dogs must be on a leash no longer than 6 feet at all times, may not be left unattended (overnight campers must keep dogs in a tent or vehicle), and are generally not allowed on trails, near rivers/creeks, in open forest/meadows, environmental campsites, or on most beaches (service animals excepted).
