About
Headquarters Hookup sits within Point Mugu State Park, one of the largest stretches of protected coastline in Southern California. The park spans over 13,300 acres at the western end of the Santa Monica Mountains, where Big Sycamore Canyon meets the Pacific Ocean. Campers have direct access to five miles of rocky bluffs, sandy beaches, and sand dunes, along with over 70 miles of hiking and equestrian trails that wind through native grasslands, coastal sage scrub, and sycamore-shaded canyons. The campground offers developed amenities including flush toilets, coin-operated showers (bring dollar bills), and potable water from spigots throughout the grounds. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring with grill. The campground can accommodate tents, trailers up to 31 feet, and RVs up to 35 feet with a height limit of 13 feet 6 inches. Pull-through sites are available. An RV dump station is located at nearby Sycamore Canyon Campground, approximately 1.5 miles away. The park is home to diverse wildlife including deer, bobcats, and mountain lions. Visitors should be aware that mountain lion sightings have occurred in the area; avoid hiking alone, especially between dusk and dawn. Cell service is limited to Verizon coverage only.
