The Ichikawa cousins fell in love with our camping style and decided they wanted to go on one more camping trip for the year. This time, we found our way to Napa for camping, wine tasting, and brewery tours. It’s the perfect combination of civilization and nature!!! 
Boethe-Napa Valley SP – August 2012
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Location: Located at the edge of Napa Valley, 5 miles north of St. Helena and 4 miles south of Calistoga.
Amenities: Flushing toilets and showers. Sink with warm water for washing dishes!
Cell Service: No
Pets: Allowed at no additional charge
Site: 12 (23 and 25 are nice for a small group), Yurt 22
Pros: Boethe-Napa gives visitors an inexpensive alternative to expensive bed & breakfast/hotels. Limos are allowed in and out of the park if you want to visit nearby wineries. The location is very convenient and is right off the highway. It’s quite easy to get to Castello di Amorosa and the Culinary Institute of America, etc. With the savings from staying at the park, you can spend more money visiting wineries! The park is also a short drive to Sonoma County. You can add a few brewery tours to the itinerary and spend some time in Santa Rosa. We also didn’t have to worry about furry critters visiting us.
Cons: Tent sites are very close to each other without much privacy to separate the sites. The bathrooms aren’t the cleanest and the showers were hit or miss. Sometimes they worked and sometimes they didn’t. Meat bees were everywhere. Make em a plate of raw meat and place it away from the common areas. Thank goodness we also have a canopy to place over the picnic table.
