My sister, her kids and I are driving from AZ to Anaheim to go to Disneyland but we don't have the money to stay in a hotel and we don't have an RV. Where is the best place to go tent camping in Anaheim/surrounding LA area?

Answer
Actual Tent Camping is going to really be limited to just a few State Beaches/Park. The closest is Crystal Cove in Newport Beach. The cost is still going to be in the $50/night price range which for just a few dollars more you can get a budget Motel closer to Disneyland.

If you do decide to camp here, they tend to book up 2-6 weeks in advance weeks in advance depending on when you are going. So it is best to book as soon as possible unless you want to hope for a cancellation.

What are some good camping areas close to San Francisco?

We are flying into San Francisco in the middle of May to go camping. We would like either beach access, or redwoods, or both would be great. Something within 3 hours of San Fran where we could rent a cabin (we will consider tent camping but flying with all the gear would be difficult). We will have a 3 year old with us so something kid friendly with rangers/security of some kind is needed. Right now we are mostly looking at Big Basin, but we are searching for other options as well. Any suggestions?

Answer
You might want to look into a KOA Cabin. They have several locations throughout the state.
Since you were thinking about Big Basin here is a link to the one in Santa Cruz County.
