Ventana Campground

Hotels
Hours: Ventana Campground is a beautiful and nice campground located in a canyon in Big Sur, offering plenty of shade and beautiful trees. The campground features clean, level, and flat spots, some of which are literally next to a small creek or river that crosses the area. Sites include a nice fire-ring, though some are on a hill or require a climb up or down from the car. Parking spots can be shallow, fitting a small SUV but potentially not a full-sized truck, and parking for one car is typical. The facilities are very clean, including clean restrooms with flush toilets. The showers receive mixed reviews; they are pay showers but some had no hot water, with reports of freezing water in one women's restroom, though warm water comes out instantly in others and one men's shower had hot water. The campground also offers glamping with special bathrooms requiring key cards. Amenities are described as very basic. Check-in can be a little confusing if the kiosk is closed, as directions on the app aren't exactly clear, but the process is automatic since spots are picked ahead of time. The campground is super easy to get to from the main road, with directions everywhere, and it is very close to Pfeiffer Beach and local restaurants. It is considered too expensive for a campground by some, but it provides a really good experience. Visitors felt very safe, would stay again, and definitely recommend it, especially with friends. It is simply an amazing and idyllic location, offering a cozy and special experience with all the creature comforts needed while camping.
