Northern CA State parks, especially on or near the coast seem to be booked solid, even this late in the year. Going east into the foothills or Sierras isn't much better.
I'd be money ahead if I rented an RV a few times a year than making a huge investment in an RV that we can't use.
Sorry for the rant but it's frustrating to watch the tires go flat on the trailer from sitting in the storage lot month after month. Is this a problem all over or just in Northern CA?
Actually, it's way worse in SoCal. We used to live in NorCal and SoCal. We now visit off-season.
The OP is well aware about dry camping since less than 1% of California State Parks campsites have any hookups.
Camping in California during peak times, has been difficult for decades. What has changed is now even the off-season requires reserving sites months in advance. Retirees are booking up state beach campsites for almost the entire winter.
