That was the first time we’ve camped with winds bad enough that we couldn’t cook outside. While the winds were bad we had to cook inside the trailer. It was pretty rough on the beach during the high winds, lots of sand in the air. The worst winds were about 30 miles per hour. It is distant and across a road but it is still a beautiful view.ĭuring our first visit, we were there in the fall, it was late October, and it was windy! There was actually a wind advisory the weekend we were there so I don’t think that was normal weather. There is more sun in this area but the sparse trees also provide better views. And you can still see the harbor through the trees. The site is surrounded by trees so it hides the neighbors.They are oriented well together and hedges between other sites give the illusion of seclusion. These sites would be great for a group of two.The ocean is right across from the road as well though so you have views from camp.
They are right next to a trail and the road so it may not feel as private. He did say it’s even better if you have a window in the back of your rig, but beautiful either way. He said it backs up to the harbor and consequently has the best views. The campground ranger recommended campsite 15.These two sites would work great together and would feel pretty private. Site 6 is the closest neighbor and part of the views from site 5 look right through campsite 6. Site 5 worked great for us but we were lucky and had no neighbors in campsite 6.This gives a lot of area to walk around and explore right at camp. While the sides are just about as close to neighbors as other sites, the back of the site is wide open and not easily accessed by other campsites. Our Doran Regional Park visit at site #87 in the Jetty campground loop. This is a campground we want to go back to but we plan to stick to the Shell, Gull, and Cove campground loops and skip on the Jetty. We were just a little spoiled from getting such an amazing site during our first visit. But that didn’t stop us from having a great time. The site itself was small and had no privacy. It was just on the opposite side of the loop we were on and walking there was no problem at all. The walk from the site to the beach took seconds. I really did enjoy having a nice view out of the windows. The kids had a great time exploring.Īnd the site was staggered enough from the neighbors that when we looked out the window we got to see the harbor and not another trailer. During low tide it was nice to have the harbor right there. There is a road in between the site and harbor but the vegetation blocked most of the road view. The Bodega Harbor is right behind the site which provided awesome views. We had neighbors on both sides and not much extra space for the kids to run around. It turned out to not be a big deal, but it wouldn’t be a site we would be excited to get again. The site itself had a large parking pad but there isn’t much space in front to maneuver into it. Site 87 was a little more difficult to park a 20 foot trailer in. Almost every site at Doran has great views. And every site in the campground, regardless of the loop, is very close to the water. In reality, the Jetty Campground sites are small and close to neighbors. Looking at the campground map it seemed like they would have the best views and be the closest to the beach. When we were reserving our site at Doran Park we thought the sites in the Jetty campground area would be the best. Doran Park Campsite #87 (Jetty Campground) Our Doran Regional Park visit at site #5 in the Shell campground loop. And we had decent cell service through Verizon. We had great views of the harbor and a couple of areas between trees that the kids could climb and explore in. This particular site had tons of space for the kids to explore. There are a lot of sites in this small campground so we weren’t expecting to have much space. The site itself was amazing, much better than we were expecting. Our 20 foot trailer fit in site #5 in the Shell Campground loop with no issues. Doran Park Campsite #5 (Shell Campground) We have stayed at a couple of different campsites at Doran Regional Park.
