What others are saying about this campground
KCL Campground is a rustic campground located in the Carrizo Plains National Monument in Southeast San Luis Obispo. It offers visitors a chance to experience the arid beauty of the area with plenty of opportunities for hiking, birdwatching, and star gazing. The campground has 12 dispersed sites, each with a picnic table, fire ring and grill, 1 parking spot, and a gear pole with hook for hanging lanterns, trash bags, and food. The restroom is stocked with toilet paper and hand sanitizer is available. The area is known for its hot temperatures, so visitors should bring plenty of water. Wildlife is abundant, and visitors may spot kangaroo rats, bats, hawks, rabbits, ground squirrels, and various insects. The night sky is clear and full of stars, and owls can be heard hooting in the evening. The campground is also close to the San Andreas Fault Line, Soda Lake, and Painted Rock, all of which are within driving distance. However, the roads can be bumpy and muddy after rain, so vehicles with high ground clearance and off-roading capabilities are recommended.
