Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...your approach is off of scenic Hwy. 1, you drive along a gorgeous coastal road and your entrance into the base off of Las Posas Road is of the lagoons filled with wildlife. The lagoons teeming with a variety of wildlife, both avian and sealife. It can be subtle, so take time to stop and observe it. We watched seals, herons, egrets and even some nurse sharks right along the road adjacent to the RV park. Be careful when approaching the RV park, the signage can be misleading, drive past the sign that points to the park and turn left into the campground parking along the motel for registration. Our experience with the staff was wonderful; both on the phone making reservations and in person. Some caveats: mosquitoes were rampant during our stay (supposedly unusual), the water pressure at the camp sites was over a 100 and the electricity varied depending on how many rigs were in the camp. The water pressure affected our rig and our friends, so much so that our reducers were inoperable and we ended up using our onboard water and water pump to avoid any damage to our plumbing. It is an active base and the campground is adjacent to an aircraft engine testing facility, which can be noisy at times but that is the beauty of being military and having the HONOR to be able to use active military installations, previous reviews have complained about these issues but remember; "Our freedom is not free". P.S.-there is a memorial to the passengers and crew of Alaska Airlines flight 261 that crashed off the coast of Point Mugu a few years back, it is at the end of the point past the beachfront RV and cottages.
