Despite its name, Castroville Regional Park is owned and operated by the city of Castroville. The campground is just a part of the 126-acre park. There are several miles of hiking trails, soccer fields, picnic areas, playgrounds and creek fishing available to visitors.
We arrived the day after Christmas to find three empty sites - we chose 24. The Camp Host was away for the holidays, but his neighbor was filling in, and soon had us checked in.
