This campground can be really nice, depending on the weather and the site you choose. Several of the sites have zero privacy and are located right by the restroom. I’d recommend 5-9 if you’d like a bit of space. 1 and 2 are really pretty, but privacy again is a bit of a concern there. 3, 4, 10, 11, 12 are the ones I’d probably avoid, if others are available. The bathrooms are fine, your typical vault toilets that are somewhat maintained. They are stocked with TP, but I’d still bring your own just in case. There is a water spigot, but I would filter it to be safe. The hike in is beautiful and there are several paths you can take to get there. Be aware of poison oak and nettle plants on the lesser maintained paths. The walk to Wild Cat isn’t too bad, but getting back out of Wild Cat is mostly up hill, so be prepared for a steep climb.
Glen campground was perfect. Sites 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 were more private. Some of the others were more out in the open. No view of the beach. About 2.5 mile hike down to wildcat beach. Vault toilets (2 for the campground) were very clean, stocked with plenty of TP. Potable water at one place for the entire campground. Bear boxes and picnic table at each site. Lots of banana slugs, also some deer at dawn and dusk in the campground. Good signage to get to the sites.
Site 3, roomy no privacy. No sun, wet. Close to group site which can be loud. Pit toilets were fine and there is TP. Essential workers during the government shutdown remove trash and resupply.
Decent place to camp, potable water & bathrooms & trash cans. Campsites are pretty flat, some have shade, some don’t. I stayed at 006 which had plenty of shade. 4.5 mile hike in from bear valley visitor center, trail is obvious and site is easy to find. however, not much to see in the area, if you want a better view, I’d recommend the wildcat campsite.
Beautiful place to camp. Not too far from wildcat beach and Alamere falls. We stayed in site 7 which had shade all day. The vault toilets stink pretty bad during the day but are fine in the morning and evening. About 5.5 miles of mostly flat hiking from 5 brooks trailhead.
