This is a nice state park. I went here and was satisfied with my experience. When you get into this state park, you can park your car at a picnic area surrounded by redwoods or take your car to a campground. The picnic area is near a creek, and on the other side of the creek are some hiking trails. I went on the Pioneer trail, which was very nice. It went through a forest of giant redwoods and up a mountain. I only saw a group of six in this trail, which was pretty cool. I’m pretty sure this trail is a loop, but I had to get to Point Bonita Lighthouse, so I had to turn around because I didn’t have time to complete it. I gave this state park five stars because it has a lot of cool redwoods and hiking trails.

Beautiful park with well maintained trails and campground. Love to watch for the salmons as they swim upstream to spawn.

An amazing park to visit for a picnic in the redwoods! The drive there and the whole experience was nice. Make sure you set your GPS before your trip getting there, but once you're there, you should have connection again :).

Beautiful redwood groves and hiking convenient to the city. Campsites are nice though all quite close to Sir Francis Drake Blvd so don't expect total silence...

Very nice trail that follow a nearby stream. Pioneer's Trail was nice as well with redwoods. Was only $8 for a day pass, which was well worth it. There was a decent amount of parking available.
