Arroyo Seco Campground

Arroyo Seco Campground sits in the Monterey Ranger District of Los Padres National Forest near Greenfield, California, right along the Arroyo Seco River at about one thousand two hundred feet of elevation, tucked into a hillside among oaks and shrubbery. The campground mixes modern and more primitive sites for single or double-family tent or RV camping, though there are no utility hookups or a dump station. The first loop has accessible flush toilets, coin-operated showers and drinking water, while the more primitive section relies on vault toilets, also with drinking water available. The setting offers views toward the Ventana Wilderness peaks and a small seasonal lake, with hiking, swimming and fishing all close at hand, and reservations run through recreation.gov.
