Camping Spot for Labor Day?
I would like recommendations for Labor Day. All of the state parks are booked, so we're open to private campgrounds. Wish list includes:
Able to reserve for Labor Day
Car camping (not hike in)
Water, showers
Near water, preferably ocean or river
Store on site for ice, ice cream, emergency supplies
Less than 3-hour drive from Bay area
Some privacy (i.e., can't hear your neighbor's conversations)
Thanks!

You can probably get a spot at KOA in Cloverdale -- it's quite nice as KOA's go. It has a pool and fishing pond, plenty of space to roam, shaded areas among the trees (important, as it can get hot up there!), and yes, a store, with very nice folks working there. The property is very close to the Russian River, and there is a swimming area nearby. My kids loved it when they were smaller. Have fun!
National forests also have campsites. https://www.recreation.gov/unifSearchResults.do
