Camping Queen Camping At Ocean Cove


This weekend we went camping with some friends at Ocean Cove. While we visited Ocean Cove three or four times last summer, this was our first visit this year (and probably our only seeing as how abalone season has re-opened!). We headed up Friday and were surprised by the number of people already there.

Ocean Cove is kind of our stand-by campground, the place we go if we want to camp and can't get reservations anywhere else. When it's not abalone season it's usually easy to pull in and find a site or two and you usually have your pick but not this time! It was very crowded and by Saturday they were using the group campgrounds as overflow camping. And it was not even an abalone weekend... CRAZINESS!

Once you have camp set-up, you get settled in, and you're having fun, the sites don't really matter. We ate, plated, relaxed, and just enjoyed spending time with friends!


The kids made trains...


'Board'walks...

Hideouts...



And boats! Creativity is DEFINITELY their strong point!


And here's the view from our campsites... BEAUTIFUL!


I've been dubbed the "Camping Queen" by a good friend of mine. When she first said it I wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing, but I've been assured it is very good and they can't wait to go camping with us. I guess six trips in one summer will earn you a title like that!

Stay tuned for our next adventure to Hendy Woods!
