Group Campgrounds California
Any good campgrounds in the bay area of California?
We live in Discovery Bay, on the delta. But we’re planning a camping trip for the 18th of this month and are having trouble deciding where to go camping, It is going to be a small family group of about 6 people and a 2 yr old 
My husband and I have only gone camping a lake berryessa and the guerneville national forest near the russian river in Jenner….
Any great ideas for places nearby that are foresty and/or near the coast? Id say inbetween SF and no higher north than Jenner. We are hoping to find a place with a lake or near the coast. With some trails, showers & toilets, and where you can have a campfire…I know there are probably alot of restrictions with fire season and all. But if at all posible we’d like to be able to intruduce a few first time campers to good ol campfire stories and s’mores!
Help!
Thanks:D
The 2 above answers are great suggestions. Samuel P Taylor has lots of trees, great bicycle and hiking paths and a babbling brook. It really is a nice campground. The other is Doran Beach and I go there often. They have tent sites separate from RV sites or if you have a RV and tents, that’s fine too. Nice bathrooms, showers and fire pits right on the beach. West side is also great, but is set up for people with boats. You can camp there is you do not have a boat, it’s just that boaters use it a lot. You can book it on line or they also have first come, first serve sites too, but on weekends these fill up early. Call Sonoma county parks at 707-565-2041. For SPTaylor call 415-488-9897
