- Join us as we re-visit the wonderful campground at Jalama Beach in Santa Barbara County, California! Its known for the beach and the burgers! It is way off the beaten path, but super popular and always a good time. We have stayed here several times and suggest making a reservation way ahead of time. There are cabins, beachfront sites and hillside sites with a view!

We haven't been to Jalama in a few years, but it still remains one of our all time favorites! We are now full time in our Grand Design Imagine XLS 17MKE and have loads of new videos. For a new favorite (and some better editing - ha ha) check out (it's not on the coast, but in one of our absolute favorite scenic areas of California: th-cam.com/video/SERJKUxkfNA/w-d-xo.html
Enjoyed the video. Nice and slowly down so I could see the sites.
Thank you! This is an ancient video - probably have come a ways in my editing since then. 😬
We have always had a great time at Jalama!

I like this place,been there for day use and hamburger, fries. It was a nice day trip.
The absolute BEST hamburger EVER! We had burgers for Thanksgiving there once... hard to get a site these days unless you book months in advance though - darn.
One of the best places on earth. Used to go there in 70s and 80s.
We agree! Sure could go for one of their Jalama Burgers 😋
@@TravelSmallLiveBig I went there before there were any Jalama Burgers. When we could drive up from OC. and didn't have to worry about getting a camp site.
@@mrkroeger definitely need to reserve a campsite now! But if you eat red meat, their burgers are delicious! Old school diner style & worth a long drive.
Now that I'm thinking about it, I realize I was there in late 60s too. And yes I do eat red meat...still
Stayed there in Jan with my family. It was our 2nd time. We drive in from Akron, Ohio. Long way but worth it!
Oh wow! You drove from Ohio? We would love to hear about your road trip and where else you stayed ~ sound like an amazing trip! We are going to Jalama in a few weeks ~ can't wait :)
Wow amazing to watch, spectacular ,stunning views 👌👌well captured ,good presentation 👏👏keep rocking💐💐
It is a fabulous place with amazing sunsets! Glad you enjoyed :)
Wow! That's a great campground with lots of different sites to offer.
Now I'm hungry! :-) Stunning views! We love trains and it is very courteous of them to be as quiet as possible.
Thanks for sharing!
It is a really cool place! Can get super windy though... we actually ate two Jalama burgers the last time here - I never eat wheat, but did eat the bun both days. Watching the train cross the trestle, especially at dusk is worth the noise. Thanks for watching!
Thank you, you just made it easy for me to pick the best beach campground.
Ha ha! It's a pretty cool one! Thanks for watching!
Nice place, nice beach.
It is! Relatively quiet during the week too. Thanks for watching Mark!

Super helpful thanks!
Glad it was helpful! It’s such a great place!
What beautiful colors all around you! And you could probably hear the Pacific lapping at the shore. Very NICE!! Since you like this I have an idea you would like Kelly's Brighten Marina & RV in Rockaway Beach, Oregon. It is a very small RV park without many amenities. All sites (which are reservable) have water and electric but it is the view that is so fabulous. We backed in and out our back was the water. People come from all over to go clamming here. Or you can just buy some roasted clams and there is your dinner. The RV sites are close together and the higher numbers are best. There are also some gorgeous tent sites - some of the best we have seen. Thanks again for your videos!! Love them!
Thanks for the kind words and the suggestion! We usually head for State or County parks instead of RV parks, but do like the little mom & pop style so will add Kelly's to our list to check out. I think buying clams sounds about right for us - ha ha! Thanks for the suggestion and for watching!
How were you able to reserve a site? My wife and friends are trying to reserve
I reserved a bit in advance off season (early November) and took one of the less popular sites. Now it seems you have to reserve 6 months in advance... ugh. Hope you are able to get a couple of sites!
What are you three favorite campgrounds?
That is a very difficult question for me to answer! We’ve been traveling for a couple of years so I have a lot to choose from.
In Oregon we loved Farewell Bend - beautiful setting along the Rogue River: Farewell Bend RV & Tent Campground / Oregon / A Campground Fav!

And you can walk the trail to the gorge: A Visit To The Rogue River Gorge / Hiking In The Rain!

For fall leaves, I loved Goose Point in Virginia: Goose Point Campground / Tent or RV Campground / Philpott Lake, Virginia / A Campground Fav!
th-cam.com/video/1GbcEPAwvoc/w-d-xo.html
And a favorite in CA for the incredible mountain views is Tuttle Creek: Tuttle Creek Campground / Alabama Hills National Scenic Area / California / A Campground Fav!

What are your three favorites?
@@TravelSmallLiveBig I was at Farewell Bend, but it was super cold and nobody was camping there. So I decided to stay at a state park campground further down instead bc I felt safer there. But the Farewell Bend campground is beautiful.
Tuttle Creek I also know. Whitney Portal I may enjoy even a little more. Eastern part of the country I never camped.
I probably like the Lower Lehman Creek campground, Indian Cove Campground and would maybe add Twin Lakes to that bc of what there is to do there. But I haven't traveled as much as you.
@@Jose-sy1je Whitney Portal would be too difficult for our newer trailer. We found some awesome places in Montana, Minnesota & Michigan too. Oregon has so many great places! We are lakefront in South Carolina right now - beautiful, but a little toasty! Safe travels!
Living in SB still haven’t camp here, and only an hour drive from home.
SEAN! You haven't been there? You would love it! It sounds like it would be right up your alley! Put it on your list :)
I love watching all of your videos but I was super interested to see this one. I used to go there years ago, like 36 years ago, it has been built up a lot since I was there last. When I used to go there the entire road in was not paved so most times there were not many people there. I need to go back, thanks for sharing this wonderful spot and taking me down memory lane!
I'm glad I could take you back! I cannot imagine driving down that windy, twisty road without it being paved the whole way ~ yikes! It is definitely one of our favorite places ~ such a great beach and super good food! It's worth a visit for sure! Thanks for watching :) Heather
@@TravelSmallLiveBig Yeah, it was a really crazy ride, in many places there was only room for one car at a time! Deann :-)
I can't imagine towing a trailer back then... but we have been on several single track roads towing in the last few years ~ eek!
@@TravelSmallLiveBig Yeah, I was driving a Ford Pickup truck with a small camper shell only. My grandfather built two twin beds on either side with storage underneath and a small built in cabinet in between. So just a cooler and a grill and a couple of sleeping bags. My boyfriend at the time was a surfer and that's what brought us there!
Hi! Great video! What time of year/ month did you go to this camp ground? Looks much more vacant than I was anticipating.
Thank you! I think this visit was early November and not on a weekend. I believe we arrived on a Sunday and stayed until maybe Wednesday? Hope that helps!
@@TravelSmallLiveBig thank you so much! I might be going with the family in August and also over the weekend. I think it's safe to say it will be crowded. 😂
@@ngoalpo as long as you reserve a site you will be fine! It’s a fun place and if you eat meat, their classic burger is amazing!
How do I download the campsite map...
Were you able to get on their website? Try reservations.sbparks.org/index_c5.asp
Just subscribed and started watching your informative videos. Enjoyed but I would suggest possibly turning down the background music. If it were instrumental it would be easier to hear your narration over it. Just a suggestion.
Dusty Katz thanks for the constructive criticism - always room for improvement! This is a new software I have been playing with so will keep that in mind when editing. Thanks!
