Saddle Mountain CG is good and quite close to Carmel. Have been there 3-4 times and enjoyed it. If you're a golfer, you'll pass the beautiful Quail Lodge golf course on the way into the CG.
Big Sur is extremely popular and could be hard to get into.
There is camping at Laguna Seca Raceway which is interesting and a unique experience. If you want to go during one of the highly popular events like the annual Monterey Historic Races, plan on booking a year in advance. Have been to the Historics many times but not with our TT yet, but hope to do that within the next few years. I even met Jay Leno once there and got his autograph before he got rich and famous doing The Tonight Show. We tent camped at the races once in a tent and woke up in the morning to find ants crawling all over the ceiling.
If you happen to arrive in the Monterey area in mid-August, it is total insanity because the Monterey car races are on, as well as the Pebble Beach and Concorso Italiano Concourse events, several car auctions (with high-end cars), and a car rally or two. It's packed with well-heeled people from all around the US with lots of money to throw around. Great place to take your Ferrari or Lambo around for a cruise.
I don't know of any specific CGs, but I imagine there are some north of Monterey and to the east around Salinas which wouldn't be too far a drive away.
Man, just thinking about this makes me want to go back asap...
