I can't give you a privacy or crowded rating because it really depends where you go in Big Sur. There is so much to do and see from the state beaches to the state parks and rivers. The campground we stayed at was perfect for kids and had great bathrooms, showers and a laundry room.
Big Sur is probably one of the most beautiful places I have been too. The campground we stayed at is also my favorite campground I've every stayed out. It is just perfect for families. It's quant, quiet, there is stuff to do and they have great facilities! We stayed at the Big Sur Campground and Cabins.
We had RV site #2 and our friends had tent site 89. They were across from eachother and they were amazing sites. I think ours was the best most private site in the campground. You wouldn't know it on the map, but it was. It had a view of the river and it was near the store that served free coffee and ice cream for a dollar all day long.
There is SO much to do in Big Sur! My favorite places are Point Lobos and Pfiefer Beach. On our trip we played hard...

It was a great vacation, an awesome place to camp!
